Legislative Changes - What 2026 has brought us so far
Migration professionals continue to have to cope with changes to the legislation and policy with very little prior warning of these changes. The validity changes to the Subclass 407 visa being one very good example of this. Join Leanne Stevens LMMIA, as she provides an analysis of the changes that we have seen to date, including any changes that we see on 1 July 2026 and what we might see for in the rest of the year.
Why not continue the conversation and join us at the social event following the CPD afternoon. Check out the events page for further details.
