Refugee and Humanitarian
Australia's Humanitarian Program is an important part of our contribution to the international protection of refugees.
It is designed to ensure that Australia can respond effectively to global humanitarian situations and that support services are available to meet the specific needs of these entrants.
The Humanitarian Program has two components:
Offshore – Resettlement
For people outside Australia in need of humanitarian assistance.
Onshore – Protection
For people already in Australia who are found to be refugees.
Temporary Protection Visa and Temporary Humanitarian Visa Holders
Abolition of temporary Protection visa (TPV) and temporary Humanitarian visa (THV) Holders, and information on the Resolution of Status (RoS) visa for Temporary Protection and Temporary Humanitarian visa holders in Australia.
