Reduced Fees for Migration Review Applications in Australia | Australia Immigration – July 2023
Following the Migration Act of 1958, this article addresses the fee adjustments for reconsidering a migration decision.
The application fee for a review of a migration decision has been raised under part 5 of the Migration Act 1958 to $3374 as of July 1st, 2023. It’s interesting to note that the decreased charge for cases granted with a 50% fee reduction will be $1687.
Note that the revised charge is only applicable to requests for reviews of migration decisions made on or after July 1, 2023. Additionally, it covers applications for review submitted before July 1, 2023, that were required to pay the entire fee or 50% of the prescribed cost and weren’t eligible for a request for a fee reduction.
In addition, the application fee for the appeal of a protection visa decision is now $2076. This is, however, under part 7 of the Migration Act of 1989. Remember that you only pay this charge if your application proves unsuccessful.
Again, the new fees are still valid for requests for reviews of protection visa decisions. Thus, applications made on or after July 1, 2023. However, per rules 4.13 a and 4.31 BA of the Migration Rules 1994, fee adjustments occur yearly by the Consumer Price Index.
