68When visa is in effect

68  When visa is in effect  (1) Subject to subsection (2), a visa has effect as soon as it is granted.  (2) A visa may provide that it comes into effect at the beginning of a day, being a day after its grant:  (a) specified in the visa; or  (b) when an event, specified in the visa, happens.  (3) A visa can only be in effect during the visa period for the visa. Note: A visa that has ceased to be in effect under section 84E may come into effect again under that section during the visa period for the visa.  (4) A bridging visa (the reactivated bridging visa), held by a non‑citizen, that has ceased to be in effect under subsection 82(3), will come into effect again during the visa period for the visa if:  (a) the non‑citizen does not hold a substantive visa that is in effect; and  (i) the non‑citizen does not hold any other bridging visa; or  (ii) the reactivated bridging visa is determined, in accordance with the regulations, to be the most beneficial of the bridging visas held by the applicant.  (5) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to a Subclass 070 (Bridging (Removal Pending)) visa (the first visa) for a non‑citizen that ceases to be in effect under subsection 82(3) if the first visa ceases to be in effect under subsection 82(3) because another Subclass 070 (Bridging (Removal Pending)) visa for the non‑citizen comes into effect.  (6) For the purposes of subparagraph (b)(ii) of the definition of visa period in subsection 5(1), the first visa is to be taken to have ceased to be in effect otherwise than under subsection 82(3). Note: This means that the visa period for the first visa ends when the second visa comes into effect.
