Non‑citizens to which this Subdivision applies unable to make valid applications for certain visas
Despite any other provision of this Act, if this Subdivision applies to a non‑citizen at a particular time and, at that time, the non‑citizen applies, or purports to apply, for a protection visa then, subject to section 91F: (a) if the non‑citizen has not been immigration cleared at that time—neither that application nor any other application made by the non‑citizen for a visa is a valid application; or (b) if the non‑citizen has been immigration cleared at that time—neither that application nor any other application made by the non‑citizen for a protection visa is a valid application.
