Who Can Apply?
To qualify for this free support and for the Subclass 202 visa, you must:
Be a Syrian Alawite currently living in Lebanon
Have a first-degree relative (parent, sibling, or child) who is an Australian citizen or permanent resident and willing to act as your proposer
Be subject to discrimination or human rights abuses in Syria
Only applications with first-degree relationships are likely to succeed. Applications without this link are rarely granted due to limited places and strict priorities.
