Can I visit Australia while my migration application is being processed?
Yes. But……
You must meet the requirements for that type of visa, which may include the requirement that you merely intend to stay for a vacation or a brief visit. Visitor visa are not meant to give temporary residency in Australia for migration applicants who are awaiting the outcome of their application.…
Furthermore, if you are temporarily in Australia, you must notify us so that we can complete your processing while you are there.
