Visa Assistance for Individuals Affected by Conflict

The Department of Home Affairs is currently processing visa applications for those impacted by the ongoing conflict. To support individuals from Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, emergency financial assistance of $1 million is available for those facing financial hardships in Australia.

Key Points to Consider:

• Challenging Exit: Exiting Gaza remains difficult due to strict local authority controls.
• Visa Options: Applicants must evaluate their relevant visa options and the urgency of their travel plans.
• Stay Extensions: Various visa programs allow for extensions of stays in Australia.
• Bridging Visa E: The Bridging Visa E (subclass 050) provides a temporary stay for those unable to access standard visa pathways.
• Medical Assessments: Visa applicants may need to undergo an immigration medical assessment at designated panel doctors.
• Parental Consent: Children traveling to Australia require consent from both parents or documentation outlining their circumstances.
• Interpreting Services: Free interpreting and translating services are available for non-English speakers in Australia.

Making an appointment for an immigration medical assessment

When making an appointment for an immigration medical assessment, you should only proceed if a departmental officer from the Australian Department of Home Affairs specifically requests it. The department provides a list of panel doctors for those outside Australia, accessible on their official website.For individuals in Israel, panel doctors are open and available. However, for those living in Gaza, there is limited availability. The Department will coordinate alternative arrangements for individuals required to complete health examinations under special circumstances.For further details and the list of panel doctors outside Australia, visit the Department of Home Affairs official website.
