Strengthening ImmiAccount Security with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Effective 18 June 2025

The Department of Home Affairs is implementing a major update to enhance the security of Immi Account, Australia’s primary online platform for managing visa and immigration services.

Beginning 18 June 2025, all new and existing users will be required to set up Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) when creating or logging into their Immi Account. This new security feature is being introduced in line with Australian Government cyber security standards to better protect personal and sensitive information.

What is Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?

MFA is an extra layer of security used to verify your identity. In addition to your password, you will be required to use a second method of verification, such as a unique code generated by an authenticator app. This ensures your Immi Account is more secure and protected from unauthorized access.

Key Changes Effective from 18 June 2025:

Mandatory MFA Setup: Users will need to configure MFA at the time of account creation or login.

MFA for Every Login: Once MFA is enabled, it will be required each time you log in or make changes to your account.

Self-service Reset: You can reset your authentication method directly within your ImmiAccount, making it easier to manage.

How to Prepare for MFA?

To ensure a smooth transition, follow these simple steps:

Download an Authenticator App
Install a trusted app like Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator on your smartphone or computer.

Verify Your Email
If you haven’t accessed your ImmiAccount in the last 6 months, log in and verify your email address to avoid disruptions.

Why This Matters?

ImmiAccount is your central online access point for applying, managing, and communicating with the Department of Home Affairs about Australian visa matters. By enabling MFA, the Department is adding a crucial layer of security to protect your immigration journey from cyber threats.
