importent information
All visa applications for sponsored family members to visit Australia must be submitted by the guarantor or the entrusted immigration agent at the Australian Immigration Department. The Australian Immigration Department no longer accepts such visa applications in China.
Australian citizens and permanent residents who have settled in Australia can sponsor their relatives to visit Australia for a short time. According to the immigration law, relatives refer to: spouse, parents, brothers, sisters, children, adopted children, aunts/aunts, uncles/nieces, nephews/nephews, grandparents/grandparents, grandchildren and corresponding "step" relatives and adopted relatives.
Fiance (wife), in-laws, cousins, friends and same-sex spouses cannot be guarantors. New Zealand citizens cannot sponsor their relatives to travel to Australia.
If you are not qualified as a guarantor, you can still send a letter to the applicant explaining your relationship with the applicant and indicating the limit of support you can give to the applicant. The applicant can submit this letter together with the application to this office. A qualified guarantor must be willing to guarantee that the applicant is scheduled to leave Australia and pay a deposit. The amount of the deposit is determined by officials of the Australian Overseas Immigration Bureau according to the different circumstances of each application, ranging from A $5,000 to A $65,438+05,000 per person. In order to avoid being punished, the guarantor must leave Australia before the visa expires.
Required materials
To apply for this visa, you need to provide:
1) 48S morphology;
2) Form 1 149 (to be filled in by the guarantor);
3) Table 54 (Family Member Table);
4) Apply for checklist.
Please note: All application forms can be downloaded from this website: www.immi.gov.au/allforms/index.htm.
Place of application
In order to make the visa application go smoothly, the applicant has the responsibility to provide all relevant materials. Any omission, error, false report, lack of correct documents or the applicant does not meet the prescribed conditions will delay the application or refuse the visa. From April 2, 2005, all visa applications for sponsored family members to visit Australia must be submitted by the guarantor or the entrusted immigration agent at the Australian Immigration Department. From now on, the Australian Immigration Department in China will no longer accept such visa applications.
Visa applicants should fill in the 48S form and mail it to the sponsor in Australia together with all supporting materials. The guarantor should fill in the form 1 149, and submit it to the immigration office in his state or region together with the form 48S and all supporting materials. The completed application can be submitted by the guarantor in person or by post. Once your application is approved, you or your authorized immigration agent will receive a letter informing you to submit your passport to the nearest overseas visa office to complete your visa attachment.
Visa attachment
You can submit your passport in person or by mail to the nearest overseas visa office and attach a copy of the approval letter from the trial center. There is no need to make an appointment or pay extra fees for visa attachments.
You can ask for your passport and visa in person or by mail. If you choose to mail, you must provide your Chinese mailing address. If you send your passport by registered mail, it may take up to two weeks, depending on the distance of your destination.
More information
Please note that overseas visa offices may need 5 working days to complete their visa applications. For more information about the visa for visiting relatives, please refer to www.immi.gov.au/visitors/visiting-family/679/index.htm.
