Existing Australia 188B to 888 Consultation | PremierVisa
Already hold a subclass 188 Investor stream visa? Review your existing case and the evidence relevant to a possible subclass 888 application.
Key points before you apply
The Business Innovation and Investment Program closed to new subclass 188 applications on 31 July 2024. This consultation is for existing 188B cases. A future 888 application depends on meeting the rules applicable to your visa and stream.
Start with your original visa history
Bring the grant date, stream and conditions of your visa, plus details of state or territory nomination. Requirements can differ according to when and how your provisional visa was obtained.
Review your investment and residence records
Discuss the evidence you have retained and any gaps that need clarification. We can help you prepare a document checklist for reviewing compliance and the next application stage.
Avoid using a new-applicant checklist
This service does not offer a new 188B application. Your existing case requires its own assessment. Investment records, nomination and other criteria should be reviewed before planning a permanent visa application.
