Are you considering family migration to another country? It can be a difficult process, with multiple visa options available. Knowing which family migration visa option is best for you and your family can be overwhelming. In this blog post, we’ll break down the different family migration visa options, so you can make the best decision for your family’s future.
Spouse or partner visas
If you are married or in a de facto relationship, then you may be eligible to apply for a type of visa that allows your partner to join you in Australia. The specific visa that is available depends on the status of your partner’s relationship with you. For example, if your partner is a foreign citizen and you are an Australian citizen or permanent resident, then you may apply for a Spouse visa (subclass 300) or a Prospective Marriage visa (subclass 300). These visas are designed to enable partners to live together in Australia.
Parent and grandparent visas
If you want to bring your parent or grandparent to Australia, there are a variety of visas available. These include the Contributory Parent visa and the Aged Parent visa. The Contributory Parent visa is a type of visa that allows parents or grandparents of Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens to stay in Australia for up to two years at a time. The Aged Parent visa is a type of visa that allows parents or grandparents who are aged 65 or over to come to Australia and stay for up to five years.
Child visas
If you’re a parent, guardian or relative of a child, you may be able to sponsor them for a type of visa. Depending on the type of visa, the child may be eligible to live, work and study in Australia. Common types of visas available for children include Child Visa (subclass 101), Adoption Visa (subclass 102), Dependent Child Visa (subclass 445) and Dependent Child Visa (subclass 117). Each visa has different requirements and provides varying levels of support, so it’s important to carefully review the eligibility criteria and understand what each visa can offer before making a decision.
Sibling visas
If you’re looking to bring a sibling to live with you in the US, you may be eligible for a type of visa that allows family members to reunite. Sibling visas are available to those who have a brother or sister who is a US citizen or permanent resident. To apply for this type of visa, you will need to demonstrate that your sibling meets certain criteria, including being able to provide financial support. Additionally, your sibling must also demonstrate that they are willing and able to help support you during your stay in the US. Once approved, your sibling will be granted a permanent residence card, allowing them to live and work in the US.
Other family member visas
If you have other relatives that you would like to bring to your home country, there are a variety of visas available. These include Carer visas, Aged Dependent Relative visas, and Remaining Relative visas. Each type of visa will have different criteria that must be met in order for the family member to be accepted into the country. These types of visas may also require sponsorship from an existing citizen or permanent resident of the country. Carefully review the eligibility requirements for each type of visa before submitting an application.
