Program Details

Partner Visa (Subclass 309 and 100)

The Partner Visa (subclass 309) is a temporary permit. With it, an applicant whose spouse or partner is an Australian citizen/ permanent resident/eligible New Zealand citizen can live in Australia.

This visa is obtained before an applicant is eligible to get the Permanent Partner Visa (subclass 100). The application for the immigration process is made once and the fees paid once as well. The only difference is that the application is processed in two stages with the second stage coming two years after application.

The applicant is required to be outside Australia during the period of the visa application and approval. This rule applies only to the subclass 309. It is, however, not valid for the subclass 100.

The required documents:

• A valid passport
• Birth certificate
• Marriage certificate
• Document proving that the sponsor is an Australian citizen, or an Australian permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen.
• Sponsorship from the main visa applicant in Australia
• Health and character requirements

The Partner (Provisional) Visa (subclass 309) remains valid until the applicant gets the final word on the Permanent visa subclass 100.

Australia Partner Visa (subclass 801 and 820)

The Partner Visa (subclass 820) is obtained before the Permanent Visa (subclass 801). It is a temporary visa and has an average processing time on 12-15 months.

Note: applicants must be in Australia when applying for these two visas. Other requirements are similar to the subclass 309 and 100

Australia Prospective Visa (subclass 300)

This visa serves people who intend to come to Australia to marry their prospective spouse.

It is a temporary visa which has 9-month validity. It requires the applicant to be outside Australia until the application is approved. The wedding can hold anywhere, including outside Aussie.

Required documents are the same as the Partner Visa subclass 309.

Application Costing

Visa Fee

Note: those applying for the Partner Visa and who happen to already have a Dependent Child Visa (subclass 445) would not be charged any application fee.
