Refusal or cancellation of visa--prohibition on applying for other visas

             (1)  A person is not allowed to make an application for a visa at a particular time (the application time ) that occurs during a period throughout which the person is in the migration zone if:

                     (a)  at an earlier time during that period, the Minister made a decision under section 501, 501A or 501B to refuse to grant a visa to the person or to cancel a visa that has been granted to the person; and

                     (b)  the decision was neither set aside nor revoked before the application time.

             (2)  Subsection (1) does not prevent a person, at the application time, from making an application for:

                     (a)  a protection visa; or

                     (b)  a visa specified in the regulations for the purposes of this subsection.

Note:          The person may however be prevented from applying for a protection visa because of section 48A.
