Here’s what obtaining an Australia humanitarian visa may allow you to do:

    • Work and study in Australia
    • Access Medicare, Australia’s public healthcare scheme
    • Apply for Australian citizenship (subject to residency eligibility)
    • Sponsor eligible family members for permanent residence

    Types of Refugee and Humanitarian

    Protection Visa (Subclass 866)

    The 866 visa is for those already in Australia who seek asylum. Moreover, it’s for individuals who genuinely fear persecution in their home country. If granted, this visa enables you to stay in Australia permanently, work and study, and enjoy the benefits of the Australian healthcare system. It’s a crucial step towards building a safe and secure future in your new homeland.

    Safe Haven Enterprise Visa (Subclass 790)

    Designed for those who arrived in Australia unlawfully and need protection as a refugee, the SHEV or 790 visa is a temporary humanitarian visa that grants successful applicants and their eligible family members up to five (5) years of residency, study, and work entitlements in Australia.
