Visitor & Short-Stay Visas
While often viewed as straightforward, Visitor visas carry a high risk of refusal due to Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) concerns. TGIF Legal ensures that your short-term entry is supported by a clear narrative, demonstrating strong ties to your home country and a compliant purpose for your visit, whether for tourism, family reunions, or business negotiations
Legislative Framework
The legislative basis for visitor entry is found in Schedule 2, Subclass 600 of the Migration Regulations. The Genuine Visitor requirement is the most common point of failure. We address Public Interest Criterion (PIC) 4011, ensuring the Department is satisfied that the applicant intends to stay temporarily and possesses access to sufficient funds.
