If you leave Australia while holding only a Bridging Visa A, the bridging visa will generally cease.
If you need to travel, you must apply for a Bridging Visa B (BVB) before you depart Australia. Only a Bridging Visa B (BVB) will let you travel in and out of Australia.
Here is the link for applying for a Bridging Visa B (BVB) online. Travel only after you have been granted a Bridging Visa B (BVB).
Not necessarily.
Your existing bridging visa may continue while the Administrative Review Tribunal reviews your case, provided your review application was lodged validly and within the required time.
However, bridging visa arrangements depend on your individual circumstances, including:
the visa decision being reviewed;
when the ART application was lodged;
the type of bridging visa you hold; and
the conditions attached to your bridging visa.
Check your bridging visa grant notice and your current visa status through VEVO. Seek professional advice if you are unsure.
