How do I check mine?

On your grant notice, in ImmiAccount or in VEVO.

If the facility expires

  • In Australia: you remain a PR.
  • Overseas: you cannot re-enter as a PR without a valid facility or an RRV. A visitor visa may let you enter but not as a PR.

The RRV

The Resident Return visa (155 or 157) lets you come back as a permanent resident once your travel facility has ended. It costs A$1,475. See Resident Return visa.
