Refugee Airfare Loan Scheme

... helping refugees reunite with their families.

The Refugee Airfare Loan Scheme (RALS) helps humanitarian entrants and their families travel to Australia.

The scheme lends money to people who:

• are proposing or sponsoring refugees and their families to settle in Australia; or
• arrived as refugees and need to bring family members to Australia.

The loans are offered by a Brisbane-based community group.  People who receive loans do not have to pay interest when they repay the money.

Loans are available to meet travel costs of people who:

• have their humanitarian entrant status 202 visa; or
• have a migration visa and are the relative of a person who arrived in Australia as a refugee or humanitarian entrant.

The loans are designed to help people who can not pay for their airfare to Australia any other way.

The fund operates under the auspices of the Community Initiatives Resource Association of West End and TEAR Australia, an international relief and development organisation.
