The Australian Government, through the Migration (Granting of Contributory Parent Visas, Parent Visas and Other Family Visas During Financial Year 2023-2024) Instrument (LIN 24\/004) 2024, has established the visa caps for the 2023-2024 fiscal year, pinpointing the exact number of visas to be granted across various family visa categories. This directive aims to manage the intake of family-based migration, ensuring a balanced approach to reunification and support within the Australian community.<\/p>\n
