Work and Medicare rights given to visa holders from Gaza and Israel

 




Without public announcement, the federal government has extended work rights and Medicare access to some visa-holders from Gaza and Israel as it prepares to shift those who arrived on visitor visas since the 7 October attacks on to bridging visas.

The bridging visa E subclasses do not automatically come with work or Medicare entitlements but the minister is able to direct that they be added.
