Travel internationally while Australia visitor visa application pending?
Indian passport holder working in USA here.
I have business meetings in Australia in January. I will apply for an Australia business visitor visa in USA.
It looks like it is an electronic application and I will not need to submit my original passport. Great news because I have personal international travel plans later this month for the holidays that I will need my passport for. But before I jump into my holiday travel: is it OK to travel internationally while my Australia visa application is under consideration in USA?
Any advice? Anyone done the same?
