Hi all,

I am currently on an eVisitor (651) visa and will be applying for 820 soon... my current visa will expire 19th of April. I was wondering if I can cancel the tourist visa so my bridging visa comes into effect sooner than April?

Did anyone try? is it even possible?

On my Immi Account when I go into the grant details of my eVisitor there is an option of "Request to cancel a temporary resident visa"... which is a bit confusing as a tourist visa is not a resident visa....

any insight would be much appreciated!

You'd become illegal if you cancel your current visa.

If you cancel your current visa then it will cancel the bridging visa.
You could then go onto a different bridging visa with no work rights and then need to address schedule 3 for the partner visa.
Short answer. Wait until April.
