About this copy
Original factual summaries describing what each official form is for and who lodges it. No form fields, layout or text are reproduced; the official PDF remains the only form.
Platform-authored navigation; no lawyer or registered migration agent reviewed this catalogue. It does not assess eligibility, points or suitability for any person.
Purpose
This form sets out the standards of conduct expected of certain adults being considered for a Subclass 050 Bridging E visa and is signed as an acknowledgement of, and agreement to, that code of behaviour while living in the Australian community.
Who lodges it
The bridging visa applicant signs it (an adult affected by the code), with an eligible witness verifying identity and witnessing the signature; the signed form is then returned to the Department.
When it is used
Completed before an eligible adult can be considered for the grant of a Bridging E visa, including where a previously granted bridging visa has ceased or is about to cease and a new one is sought.
