What is a Partner Visa?

A Partner Visa allows the spouse, de facto partner, or fiancé of an eligible Australian to live in Australia temporarily and eventually permanently. Depending on your relationship status and location at the time of applying, you’ll be eligible under one of these pathways:

Onshore Partner Visa – Subclass 820 (Temporary) & Subclass 801 (Permanent)
Offshore Partner Visa – Subclass 309 (Provisional) & Subclass 100 (Migrant)
Fiancé Visa – Subclass 300 (Prospective Marriage Visa)

Each pathway has specific eligibility criteria, processing timelines, and conditions that must be met.
