The post Condition 8503, No Further Stay – Mandatory on all Visitor Visas first appeared on Go Matilda Parent Visas.]]> The Migration Amendment (Preventing Further Stay for Visitor Visas) Regulations 2026 have been tabled today, and amend Australia’s Migration Regulations by introducing a mandatory condition 8503 on the following visitor visa subclasses:

  • 600
  • 601
  • 651

This will have effect for visitor visas under these subclasses that are granted from 28 November, 2026.

Visitor visas that have been granted by this date and that do not have a condition 8503 are not impacted by this change.

Condition 8503, No Further Stay prevents another substantive visa application being submitted while the visa holder is in Australia.

It does not prevent an application being made for a Bridging Visa, where another substantive visa application is in train.

As such in future the number of people able to apply for onshore family visas is expected to reduce markedly.

This will include applications for the following subclasses of visa:

  • 820/801, Partner
  • 804 Aged Parent
  • 864, Contributory Aged Parent
  • 884. Contributory Aged Parent (Temporary)

Please complete the enquiry form on this page if you have a visitor visa without a condition 8503 and wish to discuss applying for an onshore visa of the type noted above.
