801 Visa - Partner has died...

[Kups]

Hi
I was granted a visa 801 in Jan 2016 but my partner husband died June this year 2017. I am afraid to find out what will happen to me.
Do i have to change my visa?
Will they send me back?
What will I have to do?
I cannot get centrelink because of this situation. I have been in Australia for a long time now. I have little work but managing to survive. Your help would be much appreciated.

Sorry about your loss.

As you are a permanent resident, nothing will happen to your visa. Just make sure to apply for a RRV, when the 5 year travel facility expires.
