Transit Visa Australia
I am an Indian citizen and was refused an Australia transit visa as I did not share a New Zealand visa in my application
My travel plan was to transit in Sydney for 2 days on my return from New Zealand back to India.
I provided proof of my onward flights from Sydney to India & Sydney hotel booking.
But, the visa was refused as I did not share a New Zealand visa.
Is that correct? Could it be that they misunderstood that I am departing Sydney for New Zealand?
I have not yet applied for a New Zealand visa as the NZ application would require me to show an Australia transit visa as proof of my onward journey.
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like there might have been a mix-up with your transit visa application. If you’re only passing through Sydney on your way back to India and not heading to New Zealand from Australia, you generally wouldn’t need a New Zealand visa for that. It’s possible the visa officer misunderstood your itinerary. I’d recommend reaching out to Australian immigration to clarify the situation and maybe reapply with a clear explanation of your travel plans. Make sure to provide proof of your flights and accommodation in Sydney.
