Domestic and family violence can significantly affect a person’s migration status, visa eligibility, and long‑term security in Australia. 

In this session, migration law experts explain how DFV interacts with federal migration law, including the family violence provisions, partner visa pathways, character considerations, and the impact of police and court outcomes. 

Participants will learn how to identify migration risks early, support clients whose visas depend on their partner, and collaborate effectively across practice areas to ensure safety does not jeopardise lawful status.
