Partner visa costly financial commitment for Broken Hill couple living apart
Julie Mar and Niroj Adhikari have been married for three years but they live 9,000 kilometres apart in two different countries.
The couple is going through the process of obtaining a partner visa for Niroj, but it’s been a long journey of rejection and financial stress, with Julie estimating she’s spent $40,000 over three years.
The pair met in Sydney in 2020 when Niroj was on a student visa.
After his visa ended, he travelled home to Kathmandu, Nepal.
The 27-year-old still remembers the moment she realised she was going to ask Niroj to marry her.
