    Partner visa (apply in Australia)

    If you are married or in a de facto relationship with an Australian partner (an Australian citizen, permanent resident or an eligible New Zealand citizen) and currently in Australia, you can make a Partner visa application to live permanently in this country.

    The onshore Australia Partner visa is assessed in two stages:

    • Subclass 820 – Partner visa (Temporary): in the first two years of the relationship
    • Subclass 801 – Partner visa (Permanent): after two years.

    The Partner visa requirements include evidence to prove the relationship has been ongoing, exclusive and genuine and you both are living together and not apart on a permanent basis. Partner visa reference letters can be obtained from family, relatives or friends who can be witnesses in your partner visa application. We will provide you with the relevant forms for the references.

    If you are married, the marriage must be valid under Australian Law, and the marriage certificate is a relevant document for submission. De facto partners can make a Partner visa application by providing evidence that their relationship has been ongoing for at least the last 12 months before the application is made and the couple are not related by family.

    You can include the dependents in your family in the Partner visa application. We will provide you with the partner visa fee for all applicants included.

    Your sponsor must be your partner in the married or de facto relationship and an Australian citizen, permanent resident or an eligible New Zealand citizen.

    There are limitations of sponsorship for a partner, talk to us today to ensure you and your sponsor are qualified to make the application.

      FAQs

      A Student Guardian Visa subclass 590 allows an eligible parent, legal guardian or approved relative aged 21 or over to live in Australia to provide care and welfare for an international student. Applicants must also meet financial, health and character requirements and satisfy the visa eligibility criteria set by the Department of Home Affairs.

      The required documents vary depending on your circumstances but commonly include:
      • Proof of your relationship to the student
      • Evidence of financial capacity
      • Health insurance
      • Identity documents
      • Health and character documentation.

      The duration of a Student Guardian Visa generally aligns with the period required to provide care for the student while they study in Australia. The Department of Home Affairs will determine the visa length based on the individual application and the student’s enrolment.

      Student Guardian Visa holders are generally not permitted to work in Australia. Limited study is permitted, including an English Language Intensive Course for Overseas Students (ELICOS) of up to 20 hours per week or another course of up to three months, provided all visa conditions are met.

      The application process typically involves assessing your eligibility, preparing supporting documents, lodging the application and responding to any requests from the Department of Home Affairs. Processing times vary depending on individual circumstances and application volumes. As your Student Guardian Visa agent, we’ll guide you through every step and keep you informed throughout the process.
