Visa Application Charges (VAC) increases
The Government will raise $437.1 million in revenue over four
years by adjusting the visa application charge (VAC) for a range of visas from
1 July 2015 and by moving to full cost recovery for citizenship costs from 1
January 2016.
VACs for all visa applications made overseas will increase to
align them with application charges in Australia, with the exception of Child
Visas, for which domestic VACs will be reduced to match overseas VACs. This
measure will also increase VACs for a range of visas.
VAC increases will be increased for various visa types by
different increases: eg, CPI; 5%; 10% and 50%.
Subclass 457 VAC will increase by $25.
