Congratulations to Hayley Johnstone, who was promoted to the position of Migration Lawyer at Kindra Migration Lawyers.

It has been more than 4 years since Hayley first started at our firm as a law student, and in that time, she has contributed to the success of countless applications, particularly in the protection and family visa space. Hayley has also helped to further develop Kindra’s in-house Bridge Project, which provided low bono and pro bono assistance to key migrant groups.

Congratulations Hayley!

⚖️ Migration Law Update ⚖️

From 18 May 2026, the Administrative Review Tribunal must decide certain temporary visa matters without holding a hearing.

What does this mean for you? Written submissions and supporting evidence are now more important than ever, as some decisions for certain prescribed visas must be made “on the papers” only.
