The RBA just hiked interest rates to 3.85%. Gautam Kapil discusses the impact on mortgages and the new "No Visa Hopping" rules starting today. Tune in to the #1 Punjabi radio station Australia for the latest news.

Waking up to the news of another interest rate hike isn't easy for any of us. Today on Radio Haanji 1674AM, Gautam Kapil breaks down the Reserve Bank’s decision to lift the cash rate to 3.85%—the first increase we’ve seen in over two years. We talk about what this means for your monthly mortgage repayments and how the big banks are likely to react.

We also cover the major shift in Australian migration that took effect this week. The "No More Visa Hopping" framework is now active, making it much harder to switch between visitor and student visas while onshore. If you or your family members are planning a visa extension, you need to hear these updates.
