Basic Pre-Conditions For Application

To apply for an Australian Parent Visa a parent must appear and pass a ‘balance of family test’. Sponsors for this visa category should be either:

  • An Australian citizen;
  • A permanent resident of Australia;
  • An eligible citizen of New Zealand.

It may be noted that an applicant immigrating to this country with a Parent Australia visa is not immediately eligible for age pension. Permanent residents of Australia settled newly need to wait for a period of ten years before being entitled to Australian Age pension.

Entitlements of Parent Visa Holders

Holders of Australian parent visas are allowed to settle in Australia permanently. As a permanent resident you are allowed to live and work in this country. You are also entitled to health care benefits and social security benefits.
 

Categories of Australia Parent Visa

These immigration visas to Australia are offered differentially for applicants staying inshore and offshore.

  • Aged Parent Visa: Subclass 804 (onshore)
    This is an inshore permit for aged parents to reside in this country permanently. An applicant must necessarily have children who are either Australian citizens or are permanent residents of this country. Even parents whose children are eligible citizens of New Zealand are eligible for this immigration type.
  • Contributory Aged Parent Visa: Subclass 884 (Temporary: onshore)
    This temporary visa is for a period of two years and is valid for parents whose children are permanent dwellers of Australia or eligible New Zealand citizens. Subclass 884 visa is processed faster though at a higher cost. A temporary visa holder is entitled to permanent immigration after two years.
  • Contributory Aged Parent Visa: Subclass 864 (onshore)
    This also is meant for aged parents whose children are permanent settlers in Australia or eligible New Zealand citizens. As compared to the earlier class this is costlier and processed faster.
  • Contributory Parent Migrant Visa: Subclass 173 to 143
    Application for this visa category may be done before expiry of Contributory Parent Visa issued for temporary residence. This immigration documentation is allowed for candidates holding ‘contributory parent visa subclass 173’ and planning for a ‘contributory parent migrant visa’.

 
For parents staying outside Australian territory, the Immigration Department offers: Parent Migration Visa: Subclass 103; Contributory Parent Temporary Visa: Subclass 173; and Contributory Parent Migration Visa: Subclass 143.
