What is the Pacific Engagement Visa (PEV)?
The Pacific Engagement Visa (PEV) is a program by the Australian Government that allows eligible citizens from Pacific countries and Timor-Leste to live and work in Australia permanently.
The visa is designed to strengthen connections between Australia and the Pacific region, including Timor-Leste.
Key Features:
