This Legislative Instrument supports the framework established by Migration Regulations 1994 (the Regulations) by specifying the manner in which an approved family sponsor must notify the department responsible for Immigration (the Department) when there has been a material change in the circumstances of the approved sponsor as required by subregulation 2.87CD(1).

The new instrument making power is provided by the Migration Amendment (Temporary Sponsored Parent Visa and Other Measures) Regulations 2019, which requires approval of sponsorship before a valid visa application for a Sponsored Parent (Temporary) (subclass 870) visa can be made.
