After preparing to go to Australia to study for a PhD, my wife said that she would get a green card after working for three years. Is it convenient for me to apply to accompany her?

For this reason, you can only apply for an accompanying visa after your wife's visa comes down. The reason is that your accompanying reading sign needs to provide the COE of your wife's school.

There are two kinds of spouse relationships recognized by the Australian Immigration Service. One is an applicant who is officially married and has a formal marriage certificate (which can be registered in Australia or overseas), and the other is a formal de facto marriage spouse who has lived together for more than 12 months with sufficient evidence, so-called de facto marriage. Most of the accompanying students in China live together, and the immigration bureau of cohabitation needs to provide a lot of evidence, including key evidence such as the residence, economy, society and commitment of both parties. You belong to the second category. Generally, it is necessary to provide proof of the same life, the same bank account and the same real estate.

You need to provide your wife with tuition and living expenses in Australia, as well as your living expenses. It depends on your wife's school, major and the city you two go to.

As far as we know, it is a three-year work visa after completing the doctoral program, not a green card. What's your situation?
