How The Australian Government Address These Issues?

We have watched as the COVID-19 border controls and quarantine standards have been relaxed to create the "Trans-Tasman Bubble," a safe travel zone between Australia and New Zealand. The Department of Home Affairs has included numerous more exceptions and benefits for both onshore and offshore migrants. These exemptions and accommodations are meant to reduce COVID-19-related inconveniences and encourage family members of Australian citizens, permanent residents, business investors, and skilled immigrants employed in "important industries" to travel.

The Department of Home Affairs has also made accommodations that provide visa applicants more time to finish the requirements for their ongoing visa applications. Most recently, a relaxation of the requirement that some applicants be offshore at the time their visa is granted was made available. If a migrant does not fall under one of the listed exemption categories but still has to go to Australia right away, they can currently request for travel exemptions based on "compelling and compassionate" conditions.
