EXPERT PARTNER VISA SERVICES
A Spouse Visa is suitable for people that are currently in a relationship with an Australian citizen or Australian permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen, and would like to live in Australia with their partner.
To be eligible, it is necessary for all applicants to prove that their relationship is genuine and continuing. Financial commitment, social acceptance, emotional support and the nature of the household, are some ways of demonstrating this.
PROSPECTIVE MARRIAGE VISA (SUBCLASS 300)
The Prospective Marriage visa (subclass 300) is for people who want to come to Australia to marry their prospective spouse.
It is a temporary visa for nine months. You must be outside Australia when you lodge your application and when the visa is granted. You can have the wedding in any country: the wedding does not need to be in Australia.
This visa allows you to:
- Enter Australia before you marry your prospective spouse.
- Travel in and out of Australia as often as you want.
- Work in Australia, although some employers might not hire people with temporary visas.
- Study in Australia, but with no access to government funding for tertiary study.
- Apply for a Partner visa, in Australia, after your marriage.
