Migration (Public Interest Criterion 4022) – 2025 Update

 The Australian immigration framework frequently undergoes updates to ensure clarity, fairness, and compliance with public interest. One such recent update is the Migration (Public Interest Criterion 4022 – Code of Behaviour) Instrument 2025 (LIN 25/017), issued by the Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs. This instrument replaces the previous Code of Behaviour (LIN 24/031) and ensures the seamless continuation of its requirements beyond 31 March 2025, when the former instrument was set to expire.

Who Does Changes to Bridging Visa E Apply To?

The Code of Behaviour applies to applicants for a Subclass 050 Bridging (General) visa who meet the following criteria:

  • They are at least 18 years old at the time of application.
  • They currently hold or previously held a Bridging E (Class WE) visa granted under section 195A of the Migration Act 1958 (which allows discretionary visa grants by the Minister for Immigration).

This Code is specifically designed for Bridging E visa holders released from immigration detention, ensuring they comply with behavioural standards set by Australian law.
