There exist two variants of this visa, one being of a temporary nature, while the other endows permanence. The temporary visa has a two-year validity period during which a determination regarding your permanent visa is made. Under this visa, you are afforded the following privileges:
Conversely, the permanent visa imposes no restrictions on your stay duration in Australia. In addition to the aforementioned advantages, it permits the receipt of certain social security payments and paves the way for Australian citizenship.
It is worth noting that if your circumstances evolve, such as entering into a marital union with your partner, your entitlement under the Spouse Visa category undergoes alteration. In such instances, it is advisable to re-evaluate your eligibility for a visa with enhanced benefits. It is crucial to emphasize that there is no necessity to submit separate applications for both a temporary and a permanent Unmarried Partner Visa.
Should you satisfy the requisite legal criteria and continue to meet all stipulated requirements after the stipulated waiting period, you may apply for both visas in a consolidated application. However, it is imperative to clarify that possessing a temporary Partner Visa does not automatically render you eligible for a permanent Partner Visa. Nonetheless, it streamlines the application process.
Regarding processing times, this aspect falls within the purview of Australian immigration authorities. While we anticipate your case to be processed within 12 to 18 months, it is important to underscore that we are not responsible for the actual processing and, therefore cannot guarantee specific timelines.
To qualify for partner status, you must maintain an exclusive relationship and cohabitate (or endure only temporary separations). Additionally, you must substantiate your relationship with evidence spanning at least 12 months before your application submission.
In instances where your relationship duration is less than 12 months, you may still be deemed eligible for this visa. The Australian government recognizes various waivers, particularly if you share a child with your partner. Furthermore, in the context of same-sex relationships, the Immigration Authorities exhibit understanding when the laws of your country of origin impede cohabitation.
Similar to other Australian visas, you must satisfy Australian health and character requirements to secure approval.
A comprehensive assortment of documents is required to support your application, substantiate your identity, good health, and character, and validate your relationship. Identity documents include:
Furthermore, you must furnish information pertaining to your partner, encompassing details of previous relationships (such as marriage certificates) and evidence confirming the termination of these relationships (such as divorce certificates or death certificates).
Your documentation relating to the relationship must affirm the following:
These aspects are substantiated through knowledge of each other’s personal lives, financial aspects of the relationship, living arrangements, descriptions of social interactions, mutual friends (including statutory declarations by friends), and a discussion on the nature of the relationship, including its long-term commitment.
This constitutes a pivotal element of the visa application process. Many genuinely bona fide relationships have been denied due to inadequately presented cases. Our experts, who have assisted numerous individuals over the years, possess the acumen to assist you in obtaining your Unmarried Partner Visa for Australia. It is crucial to note that marriages entered into solely for the purpose of obtaining a visa for the overseas national are not permissible, and stringent assessments are enforced.
