Operating through a two-stage process: temporary and permanent visa, the Australian partner visa enables eligible individuals to build their lives in Australia alongside their Australian partner. Initially, the temporary partner or prospective marriage visa allows the de facto partner or spouse of an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen to stay in Australia temporarily.
After fulfilling the requisite time of two years on the temporary visa and maintaining the relationship, visa applicants will become eligible for the Permanent Visa (Subclass 801 visa if onshore or Subclass 100 visa if offshore). This eligibility applies to individuals who currently hold a temporary Partner visa (subclass 820 visa if onshore or Subclass 309 visa if offshore). This process requires strict adherence to eligibility criteria and thorough documentation, emphasising the crucial importance of professional guidance for a successful application journey.
Navigating the Partner Visa application process involves gathering a range of crucial documents to ensure a smooth application submission. Here’s the essential checklist to guide you.
Understanding the eligibility criteria will provide you with the initial guidance required for the application submission, ensuring that you fulfil the essential qualifications for this specific visa category. The eligibility requirements encompass:
A partner visa is an Australian visa for people with a partner who is an Australian citizen or permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen. There are three types of partner visas: de facto, married and fiancé. Couples who have been in a De Facto relationship for less than 12 months and can present evidence of their continued and exclusive connection are eligible for a De Facto visa. For a Married visa, couples’, a prof their connection, such as marriage certificates and joint finances are applicable. The Fiancé visa is for engaged couples who want to marry within nine months of landing in Australia. Candidates must also offer proof of their genuine desire to marry. Partner visa applications are assessed based on the couple’s relationship seriousness and eligibility requirements. When the visa is accepted, the visa-holder partner will be permitted to live and work in Australia.
Subclass 820 visa is a temporary visa that allows the spouse or partner who has been in a de facto relationship with an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen to enter and live in Australia for up to two years. After two years, the applicant can be eligible to apply for a permanent partner visa Subclass 801. The 820 visas are applied for onshore within Australia and grant temporary residence while the permanent Partner Visa application is being processed.
The Subclass 801 visa grants permanent residency to those in a genuine and committed de facto relationship or legally married to an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen. It's the second stage of the partner visa process and can be applied for after two years of holding a Subclass 820 visa. During this time, you must prove your relationship is genuine to Australian Immigration.
Note: Partner visas 820 and 801 are onshore partner visas for applicants staying in Australia.
The subclass 309 visa lets couples enter and stay temporarily in Australia while their subclass 100 visa application is processed. It's for those in de facto relationships or married to an Australian citizen. The visa is applied for outside Australia and leads to permanent residency through the subclass 100 visa after two years. The Department of Home Affairs evaluates applications for a temporary visa, which can lead to a permanent migrant visa.
The Subclass 100 Partner Visa allows you to live and work in Australia as an Australian citizen's partner. It is the second stage of the partner visa application, following the temporary Partner (Provisional) Visa subclass 309. To obtain a subclass 100 permanent visa, you must first secure a provisional visa valid for two years for yourself and your partner. You need to be living together and committed to a shared life as husband and wife.
Note: Partner visas 309 and 100 are offshore partner visas for applicants staying outside of Australia.
The Prospective Marriage Visa subclass 300 allows individuals to enter Australia and marry a partner who is a qualified citizen. Requirements include being sponsored by an Australian partner, intending to marry within nine months of a visa grant, and meeting health and character requirements. After the marriage, the applicant can then apply for partner visas (subclass 820/801 or subclass 309/100) to continue their stay in Australia.
When it comes to reuniting with your beloved in Australia, having a clear grasp of partner visa processing times is of utmost importance. These processing times can vary, depending on factors such as the specific visa subclass and your individual circumstances, typically spanning from around 9 to 45 months. Several elements, including the complexity of your case and the volume of applications, play a vital role in determining these processing times.
We are committed to providing you with the latest information on processing times and delivering continuous support throughout your application process. Notably, the temporary and prospective marriage visas (Subclass 820, Subclass 309 and Subclass 300) generally have shorter processing periods compared to the permanent partner visas (Subclass 801 and Subclass 100). Our skilled team will guide you through these estimated timeframes, which are subject to potential changes, ensuring a seamless journey as you reunite with your beloved in Australia.
Allowing individuals to live, work and study in Australia alongside their partner, a temporary partner visa (Subclass 820 and 309) is the initial stage of a partner visa. The duration of this temporary visa extends up to two years from the date of the visa grant. Throughout this period, visa holders must conscientiously adhere to the stipulated visa requirements while nurturing their relationship with their Australian partner.
Upon fulfilling the eligibility criteria and having maintained the temporary partner visa for the designated duration, applicants can advance to the next stage, which is the permanent partner visa (801 Visa and 100 Visa). This second phase bestows indefinite residency in Australia, granting access to vital services like healthcare, social benefits and the opportunity to embark on the path to Australian citizenship. Throughout these two crucial phases, our seasoned team will provide you with the necessary guidance and support to meet the criteria for securing permanent residency.
