- The portal https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/ returned an HTTP 403 error on 2026-09-17, as did https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-finder and https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/: no page could be read.
- New attempt on 2026-09-18: immi.homeaffairs.gov.au and abf.gov.au again returned HTTP 403, and the infrastructure.gov.au pages timed out. Nothing new could be read; the substance of the file is unchanged.
- Three official pages spotted but not read are proposed in source_candidates, including that of the department responsible for the Indian Ocean Territories, which appears to hold the formalities specific to Christmas Island.
- Visa types, submission channel, documents, fees and processing times remain entirely to be established from a successful reading of the portal.
- A reviewer must confirm that the entry regime of Christmas Island is indeed the one administered by the Department of Home Affairs, and flag any particularity specific to this Australian external territory.
