Australian Family Visa Program

Australia's family visa program allows Australian citizens, permanent residents, and eligible New Zealand citizens to sponsor family members for migration to Australia. These visas strengthen family bonds and provide pathways for families to live together permanently.

Key Benefits:

• Family Reunification: Bring your immediate and extended family members to live with you in Australia.
• Permanent Residency: Most family visas offer immediate or eventual permanent residency status.
• Access to Services: Family visa holders gain access to Australia's healthcare system, education opportunities, and social services.
• Work and Study Rights: Family members can work and study in Australia, contributing to their new communities.

Visa Requirements

While specific requirements vary between family visa types, common eligibility criteria include:

• Family Relationship: Evidence of genuine family relationships through birth certificates, marriage certificates, or proof of de facto relationships.
• Eligible Sponsor: Sponsorship from an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen.
• Financial Support: Sponsors may need to demonstrate capacity to support family members, including providing Assurances of Support for certain visa types.
