If I’m a permanent resident, how can I help family members join me in Australia?

As a permanent resident, you have several pathways to sponsor eligible family members to join you in Australia. Common options include partner visas for your spouse / de facto partner, which allow them to live in Australia temporarily and then transition to permanent residency. For dependent children, there are specific visas designed to facilitate their move to Australia. Parents can also be sponsored on a temporary or permanent basis, with some visas offering faster than the standard lengthier options. You also need to meet sponsorship requirements, which may include providing financial support and accommodation. The best option and associated requirements will vary depending on the circumstances, and we can work with you to identify the most efficient and cost-effective way to reunite with your family.
