    790 Visa Australia

    The 790 visa, formally known as the Safe Haven Enterprise Visa (SHEV), is designed for individuals who arrived in Australia illegally and seek protection. It acknowledges the unique circumstances of applicants needing safety. It offers eligible candidates a chance to start anew in Australia.

    With this visa, qualified applicants will have the following benefits:

    • Permission to work in Australia: It allows you to work and contribute to your self-sufficiency and the Australian economy.
    • Study in Australia: Grants access to educational institutions for better personal and professional development.
    • Access to Medicare: Ensures health coverage for medical needs for your peace of mind.
    • Free English classes: If you’re eligible, you can attend English language classes for free.
    • Short-term Counsel: As an individual who sought asylum, you shall be entitled to counselling for trauma and torture as needed
    • 790 Visa Pathway to further visas: Offers a potential pathway to other visas, including permanent residency, under certain conditions.

    Is subclass 790 a permanent visa? It is not a PR visa, but eligible applicants can qualify for permanent residency through subclass 851 visa (Resolution of Status) if they had their SHEV visa subclass 790 before 14 February 2023.

    Subclass 790 Visa conditions

    It’s essential to understand that the 790 visa comes with specific requirements aimed at ensuring applicants are genuinely in need of protection. These subclass 790 visa conditions are:

    • Must not have arrived in Australia legally
    • Be subject to substantial discrimination in your home country
    • Meet Australia’s protection obligations
    • Not be considered a security or character risk to the Australian community

    Applying for a Safe Haven Enterprise Visa subclass 790 involves several steps designed to assess your eligibility and need for protection. These application steps are as follows.

    • Eligibility Assessment: Determine if you meet the basic criteria for protection under Australian laws.
    • Documents Gathering: Prepare and review all the documents you need to support your application
    • Application Submission: Complete and submit the necessary forms and documentation to the Department.
    • Interview: Attend an interview where your claims for protection will be assessed.

    Visa Subclass 790 Processing Time and Costs

    The processing time for a safe haven visa 790 can vary widely depending on individual circumstances and each case’s complexity. Visa subclass 790 processing time may be prolonged if documents submitted were incomplete or inaccurate.

    Consider hiring an immigration professional to help with your requirements and ensure the completeness and accuracy of your submitted requirements.

    As for costs, applicants might incur charges related to health checks, police certificates, and the visa application fee (A$45). Both processing times and costs are always subject to change so it’s best to consult with an immigration lawyer for the most current information.

    Thong and Marlene helped my partner gain permanent residency in Australia. We did the application ourselves but it turned out lots of information we needed to provide was missing. Thong and Marlene picked our case up and helped amend it. I really appreciate their help and guidance and look forward to contacting them again in the future. I am pleased by their efforts and professionalism.

      What is the difference between a 790 visa and a 866 visa?

      The 790 (SHEV) visa is for those who arrived illegally and seek protection. The 866 visa, meanwhile, is a permanent protection visa for people who arrived legally in Australia.

      Can I apply for a 790 visa outside Australia?

      No, the 790 visa application must be made while you are in Australia as an unlawful entrant.

      How long can I stay in Australia on a 790 visa?

      The 790 visa is a temporary visa that allows you to legally stay in Australia for up to five (5) years.

      Can family members be included in my 790 visa application?

      Yes, you can include eligible family members in your application.

      What happens after my 790 visa expires?

      You may be eligible to apply for another subclass 790 safe haven enterprise visa or a temporary protection visa, provided you satisfy said visa’s eligibility and conditions. Notably, you must apply for another visa before your 790 visa expires.

      Is it possible to travel outside Australia on a 790 visa?
