Health Min. @GregHuntMP confirms international borders will reopen to skilled migrants on Dec 15 as planned. Today he’s announcing telehealth to be permanently available for appointments with GPs, specialists and allied health professionals @7NewsMelbourne
Our temporary residents (students, graduates and many others) have the same aspirations as each of us.
Yet if their Visa expired during COVID they are told to wait until July 2022 to reapply.
We need to bring this date forward to Dec 15.

Expired Visa holders are told to wait until July 2022, while many temporary residents were excited for re-entry into Australia from 1st Dec.
Now there are delays until 15th Dec. Make it up by allowing renewals & re-entry from 15th.

Replacement visa should be automatic extension for graduates who suffered 21months offshore but the government still want us to pay and wait. This is not how a government should support the vulnerable graduates who now facing financial hardships. @AlexHawkeMP@JulianHillMP
British and hongkong visa holder got automatic extension with the same 485 visa that we hold as well , but we have to pay for replacement visa,how fair is @AlexHawkeMP did you take the visa fee with British and hongkong 485 as well? @NickMcKim@tomwconnell@JulianHillMP
We should be allowed as well along with all the visa holders, why should we only suffer for another 7 months long just to apply we can’t afford that, hear our voice, we want you to bring us 485 back along with all visa holder ones border open
@AlexHawkeMP@NickMcKim
We already waited for 21 months and you still want us to wait for another 7 months until july2022.Please change the replacement visa date to 15 December #@AlexHawkeMP @NickMcKim@karenandrewsmp@JulianHillMP@NourHaydar

@AlexHawkeMP@NickMcKim@tomwconnell@JulianHillMP
We were excited to finally return to Australia and we are disappointed over the last minute delay. At least bring forward the replacement 485 visa date for expired visas to 15 December so we finally can plan our future & return.@AlexHawkeMP@ScottMorrisonMP#auspol#auspol2021
We were so happy to see that our voice was finally heard but we didn’t know that we would be told to wait another 7 months and wait till july 2022. We have already been waiting for 21 months, this is not fair @NickMcKim@AlexHawkeMP@JulianHillMP@tomwconnell@SBSPunjabi@abcnews
Why do we have to wait till july 2022? Is 21 months of wait not enough? Not only we are suffering but our families are suffering along with us. And by the time these visas are processed, it would be 3 years. So unfair @AlexHawkeMP@NickMcKim@abcnews@JulianHillMP@JamieTravers
