WARNING: Visa application should be lodged immediately

WARNING: Non-contributory Parent, Remaining Relative, Carer and Aged Dependant visa application should be lodged immediately!

DOHA has confirmed to the MIA, that as announced in the Budget (See MIA Notice 48.2014), applications for Non-contributory Parent, Remaining Relative, Carer and Aged Dependant visas will be ceasing.

DOHA has also advised that this will happen in the very near future, but the date is as yet unspecified.

This closure will have no retrospective implications.

It is therefore vital that any applications for these four visas be lodged immediately.
