In late June, I was advised that the offer of a subclass 786 Temporary Humanitarian Concern (THC) visa was expiring on the 30th of June.
Accordingly, I decided to extend the offer of a subclass 786 THC to the 14th of July, to allow those still in the process of applying to access the program, as well as extending the offer to their immediate family members.
It also became apparent that the initial 30th June expiry date, as set by the previous Government, had not been communicated to the Ukrainian Australian community.
Therefore, I am making this statement to advise the community that I am extending the deadline until the 31st of July, for all Ukrainian nationals (and their immediate family members), to allow those who were not aware of a deadline, time to make arrangements to accept their offer.
Australia will also continue to provide support to Ukrainians, including via the $450,000 grant to the Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations to assist their work to support those who have recently arrived.
