On-shore 만 요약 정리를 한다면

  1. 2020년 3월 20일 이전에 비자가 그란트되었느냐? 
  2. 2020년 3월 20일 당일 비자가 유효하고 있었느냐? 또는 이미 만기되었고 BV 이외에 다른 비자를 소지하지 않았느냐? (이 부분이 매우 중요함) 
  3. 2020년 3월 20일 당일 호주에 있었느냐?
  4. 2022년 3월 5일 부터 2022년 12월 31일 사이에 NIL VAC WHM를 신청하는 시점에 신청인이 호주에 있느냐? (on-shore 비자를 신청할 경우 당연히 호주에 어떤 비자를 소지하고 있어야 함) 

개인의 사정에 따라 사정이 다를 수 있으니 꼭 법을 검토하고 신청하는 것이 좋겠습니다.

NIL VAC WHM 비자를 신청하는 분들 참고하시고요 그리고 tip 하나로

만약에 COVID-19 으로 영향받은 WHM 비자를 소지한 신청인의 경우 그리고 그때 첫번쨰 또는 두번째 WHM 비자를 소지한 경우라면 이 NIL VAC WHM 비자는 그전에 소지한 WHM 비자를 대체하는 것으로 NI VAC WHM를 신청하여 그란트된 경우 첫번째 WHM를 소지한 분은 두번째 WHM를 두번째 가졌던분들은 세번째 WHM를 신청할 수 있습니다.

호주 정부에서 WHM 비자를 신청하는 분들께 나름 혜택을 주는 것이라고 생각됩니다.
