Australian Migration Visa Information

AUSTRALIAN VISA SUMMARY

Before being permitted to enter Australia, all non-Australians need to have an appropriate visa.

It is worth noting that there are approximately 140 classes of visa. Some applications can be very straight forward. However, as in many legal situations, there can be various ways of approaching a visa application, all of which may achieve the desired result but they will invariably require thorough research, careful analysis and staged planning.

There are 3 main classes of Visa, depending on how long you want to stay in Australia for:

  1. Permanent Residency
     A Permanent Visa is for people wanting to move to Australia, to become an Australian Citizen or resident and to have full rights of employment and opportunity as an Australian. In other words, a Permanent Visa is for you if you want to be an Australian and make Australia your home.
  2. Temporary Residency
     A Temporary Visa is for people wanting to visit Australia for a period of time, eventually returning to their home country.
  3. Holiday or Short Stay Visa
     A Holiday or Short Stay Visa is for people who would like to visit Australia for a holiday, to visit friends or to travel.

  • Family Migration
    By applying for a Family Visa, people can be sponsored by a relative who is a permanent resident or an Australian Citizen.

We also assist clients with visa applications for temporary residence, including:

  • Student Visa
    The Australian Government operated an Overseas Student Program. This allows people who are not permanent residents or Australian Citizens to study in Australia.
  • Investor Retirement Visa
    The Retirement Visa is for people over 55 years of age who have no dependents apart from their spouse and who can support themselves in Australia.

Some types of temporary residence visas allow you to apply for permanent residence in the future if you comply with particular requirements.
