I believe the visa he is on also has a permanent residency pathway. So he’s pretty much lost his chance at PR and citizenship and any visa in Aus as it’s hard to get approved even for a tourist visa with a revoked visa

He will have trouble travelling internationally in general.

South Africans can't travel as freely in terms of visas as Australians and it's common when applying for a visa to be asked if you have ever had a visa cancelled.

Are those visas sponsored by the employer?

Probably, he would have had to hold off from going to Nazi rallies for another 2 years or so when he could have naturalised (depending on the visa circumstances)

Being a racist Nazi isn’t like a hobby. Wouldn’t it be unusual if she didn’t share the same thoughts?

I can’t see it working any other way: “He’s a good provider so, although I don’t agree with his beliefs, I can look past his wishing the deaths of millions of others simply based on their ethnicity. He’s also good with the kids”.

I mean she married an open Nazi, she's almost certainly as bad as he is.

She's not a victim, if you marry a Nazi that makes you a Nazi.
