New Instrument - COVID-19 Pandemic event for Subclass 408 visa
The purpose of the instrument is to provide a pathway for certain former and current holders of temporary visas to lawfully remain in Australia and who would otherwise be required to depart Australia who, but for the COVID-19 pandemic, are unable to leave Australia.
The instrument limits the class of persons who can be granted the visa to those who hold a visa that is 28 days or less from ceasing to be in effect, or held a visa that is no more than 28 days from ceasing to be in effect. It further limits the class of persons to those who are unable to apply for the same temporary visa they hold or held or any other subclass of temporary visa other than the Subclass 408 visa.

Tuesday, 07 April 2020Sharing the legislative instrument as if it is your own file with your own URL link - I am not sure if it is compliant with its reproduction and use. If you are going to disseminate it, you cannot fabricate the link for your website to gain more traffic. What is your view?

Hi James,
With due respect, I don't believe that Migration Alliance has purported in any way that they own the instrument or indeed drafted it.
The fact that their URL displays when you open the PDF is a direct correlation to the technology used to host it on their website.
Visit the Federal Register of Legislation (FRL) and you'll find the instrument there with their own domain in the URL. Nevertheless, the FRL does not own the instrument either.
Such is the way of technology.
