Prospective Marriage (Subclass 300) Visa

The Prospective Marriage Visa, Subclass 300, offers the promise of eternal love on Australian soil. This visa category is tailored for those engaged to an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen. It opens the gateways for overseas partners longing to tie the knot in Australia and embark on a path of wedded bliss.

  • Explore the eligibility criteria for the Prospective Marriage visa.
  • Understand the conditions for visa grant, including the requirement to enter into a valid marriage within 9 months of visa approval.

Partner (Subclass 820/801 or 309/100) Visa

The Partner Visa is the quintessential pathway for committed couples ready to solidify their bond. This visa category encompasses two subclasses—the Onshore Partner Visa (Subclass 820/801) for applicants already in Australia, and the Offshore Partner Visa (Subclass 309/100) for those outside Australia. Both routes lead to a harmonious reunion with your Australian partner.

  • Discover the differences between the Onshore and Offshore Partner Visas.
  • Learn about the eligibility requirements, processing, and cost considerations for each subclass.

De Facto Relationships: A Path to Forever

Love transcends marital vows, and so does the Partner Visa system. The Subclass 820/801 and 309/100 Visas also accommodate de facto relationships—the untamed and genuine partnerships that don't require a marriage certificate. This category highlights the importance of financial, social, and commitment-based evidence to substantiate the authenticity of your connection.

Understanding the Different Types of Partner Visas empowers you to make an informed decision—one that aligns with your unique relationship. Assess your circumstances, delve into the criteria outlined by the Department of Home Affairs, and consult with professionals if needed. Embark on this journey armed with knowledge, knowing that the visa you choose will set the course for your secure future together.
