Sponsorship can come from any of the following persons:
- Your child.
- Your child’s partner.

- Your sponsor is required to provide all adequate support in terms of accommodation, finance and all relevant moral support for the first two years of your stay in Australia.
- These obligations must cover all financial support for the applicant and any accompanying family members.
- An Assurance of Support (AoS) must be placed with the government for the applicant and adult dependents.
