Assistance to Temporary Visa Holders in Australia 

This information may assist our community members during this lockdown period.

You may be eligible for Red Cross Safety Net support if you:
- are in Australia on a temporary visa
- are in urgent financial hardship
- cannot access Centrelink, Medicare or similar services
- have no income, savings or other financial support (including from family overseas).
The Red Cross has announced on its website that it will be receiving funding from the Australian Government for the next six months to deliver emergency relief and casework support to temporary visa holders who have no way to support themselves and who have urgent needs. Assistance will include food, medicine and crisis accommodation costs.
Eligible visa holders are requested to contact the Red Cross by email in the first instance so that can be advised when the funds and arrangements are in place. Please see this link for more information https://www.redcross.org.au/news-and-media/news/help-for-migrants-in-transition
