BRIDGING VISAS
Bridging visa is a temporary visa that allows you to stay in Australia legally to avoid being removed by the immigration department. Some bridging visas, however, can serve a different purpose such as by allowing you to stay lawfully in Australia while waiting for you appeal at Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT)
Bridging visas are only granted and valid while you are in Australia. The bridging visa will cease once you leave the country. The only exception to this rule is the Bridging B visa that has a travel facility attached allowing you to travel overseas and return back to Australia.
