How to Apply for a Protection Visa Class XB?

Step 1: Complete the right forms.

Step 2: Lodge the forms.

The link below (orange button) should work on most internet browsers.

If you have problems, please try this link.

https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/form-listing/forms/842.pdf

If you can make an application which is an online application then the form is not required and you can simply put the information directly into the portal. Here is the location for the portal:

https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/departmental-forms/online-forms/special-humanitarian-visa-submission-form

Note: There is no fee for lodgement.

Please share with me (below) any feedback about problems with downloading or making applications.

Where do you lodge form 842?

There is NO email address. You must either lodge it online (online is the best way for subclass 202) otherwise you must send it to the “nearest Australian diplomatic, consular or migration office”.

As of the time of writing the Department of Home Affairs has not provided any email address or any postal address inside Australia, for these applications to be made.
