Australian spouse immigration application guide

Partnermigration is Australia's priority family immigrant, second only to minor children. The government has no quota for such visas, so applicants don't have to wait in line. Even so, spouse migration is the most complicated family migration. Lovers can include married husbands/wives, de facto husbands/wives, fiance/wives and same-sex couples.

Spouse visa is generally carried out in two stages.

The first stage: temporary spouse visa (subclass 309/820).

Two. The second stage: permanent spouse visa (subclass 100/80 1).

Usually, applicants can only get a temporary spouse visa first. You can't apply for a permanent visa until you get a temporary visa for two years. When applying for a permanent visa, the applicant does not have to pay the application fee.

Under special circumstances, the applicant can directly apply for a permanent residence visa. The prerequisite is:

The spouse relationship between the applicant and the guarantor has been more than five years, or

The applicant and the guarantor have children.

No matter what kind of visa, the most important thing is to prove that the relationship between the two sides is true and continuous.

In Australian immigration law, cohabitation is an important criterion to prove the true and long-term relationship between husband and wife. When spouses do not live together, or have known each other for a short time, the application for a spouse visa may be subject to more rigorous examination to prove that their separation is temporary or necessary. And provide sufficient evidence to prove that the two sides maintained their relationship during the separation period.

Quasi-marriage visa is also called fiance/wife visa. This visa allows the applicant to come to Australia to marry his/her fiance/wife during the visa period. The visa is usually nine months.

The applicant must really intend to marry the sponsor in Australia and be prepared to maintain a long-term marriage relationship with his spouse. The holder of the fiance/wife visa enjoys the following rights:

Come to Australia before marrying your fiance/wife in Australia.

During the visa period (nine months), you can enter and leave the country multiple times.

Fiancee visa holders must:

Come to Australia before marrying your fiance/wife in Australia. If the applicant marries his spouse before entering the country, the unmarried visa will be cancelled.

You must enter the country within the time stipulated in the visa.

Must get married within 9 months after the visa is approved. Weddings can be held at home or abroad, as long as the applicant has entered the country at least once before marriage.

Submit a spouse visa application before the unmarried visa expires.

If the applicant's address or other circumstances change, it must notify the Immigration Bureau, including:

The applicant and the guarantor have children.

The relationship between the applicant and the guarantor has broken down.

The special reason is that the applicant cannot come to Australia before the entry deadline.
