Visas for partners

Being apart from your partner in a foreign country can be an emotionally difficult time. In Australia, married partners and de facto partners in a relationship with an Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen may be granted a partner visa to live in Australia.

Obtaining a permanent partner visa is a two-stage process where you apply for both a temporary and permanent visa at the same time. If you’re granted the temporary visa, you’re eligible to progress your permanent visa application after two years residency.

There are three eligibility pathways to apply for a partner visa:

Prospective Marriage Visa to come to Australia (subclasses 300 + 820 + 801)
Partner (Temporary) Visa to come to Australia (subclasses 309 + 100)
Partner (Temporary) Visa from within Australia (subclasses 820 + 801)

Every couple’s circumstances are unique. At Australian Education and Visa Centre, we can help you build a strong case for your application, selecting the best visa category to suit your situation.

Prospective Marriage Visa to come to Australia (subclasses 300 + 820 + 801)

The Prospective Marriage visa allows the visa holder to enter Australia on the condition that they marry their partner and apply for a residence visa onshore. This visa is valid for a period of nine months only.

You must enter Australia, marry your sponsor and apply for a Partner visa (subclasses 820 and 801) within this timeframe.

Under a Prospective Marriage visa you can:

  • Work or study in Australia
  • Access Australia’s healthcare scheme
  • Enter and leave Australia freely.

      Most people are struggling to stay in this country as visa terms because we are one of Austraila's foreigners. When you find an agency that helps you stay away from visa conditions while you study or work, a few of us have the experience that agency gives you wrong information or to be rude to you. Also I was paying for them before and I was disappointed. However, when I talked to the AEV centre, I felt different from others. Now I am still satisfied with them for three years. Thank you AEV :)

      Absolutely recommended AEV. Sarah helped me apply my NZ citizen family visa from the beginning till my visa has granted. During the waiting period I was facing few personal family issues back home. Sarah helped me out as much as she could with her perfessional suggestions and kept me updated at all time. I’m so thankful I have her as my agent.

      Its not often these days that you immediately feel like the most important person in the store, but that is how I felt when I walked through the door of the AEV Centre in Southport. I was greeted with a friendly smile and ushered to comfortable seats where I waited briefly for my appointment.Paul Kwons Offices are clean and fresh and as I glanced at his Certificates of achievements on the wall, I started to relax realising I was in qualified hands.I have lived in Australia for many years but realised I would need guaranteed support in my ageing years. I had tried a couple of on-line Visa Application options but had always run into one snag or another, I was starting to loose my patience.A friend encouraged me to seek professional help and I am happy to say the AEV Centre in Southport satisfied all my requirements and also had a open appointment for me when I was free.During our first meeting Paul mapped out the application procedure and created profiles and payment methods, it was dark before I left his office that first meeting but his smile never faded. I saw Paul at least two more times to confirm details and drop off paperwork as he asked for it, often his confirmation E mails would arrive well into the evening and I appreciated his assistance greatly.At my last visit he pressed the enter button and submitted my completed application. "This could take a while", was his last comment.I am excited to share that after seven months the Ministry has granted my application and I am well on the way to gaining Australian Citizenship.Many thanks to the Paul Kwon and his lovely staff at the Southport AEV Centre.

      A HUGE thank you to Kate at AEV. She helped me apply for my student visa and course with Academique. We applied at the end of August and was granted at the end of November. It was a simple 3 month process. Kate was very helpful and informative throughout and prompt with keeping me up to date. Highly recommend AEV for all students of any nationality!

      I've always been asked why I paid for an agent when I can process the application myself. My answer? Because my knowledge is only as much as I know. Working with Paul has made my entire journey a breeze. He makes you feel that he is not just a professional working with you but rather a friend who is there to answer your questions and doubts. He also is there anytime my nerves get to me when I am losing patience while waiting. He also lets you know important things that you have not even thought of as being important. His knowledge and qualification has made my application smooth and easy. He doesn't make you do things without an explanation and he makes sure you understand and know what you are up to. The cost of visa is no joke, if you have already spent for it, might as well spend a bit more to make sure that you are doing the right thing. With Paul, I can give my assurance that you are dealing with a genuine and honest person whose intention to get your visa is as high as yours. 5 stars recommendation.

      AEV has been helping me with processing the required visas from the get go since I came to Australia and got married. Even though there was a little time to apply for required visas, they managed to do it! And from then on they worked hard on on all the procedures and applications to get me permanent residency through bridging visas, partners visas till i got my permanent residency. Always friendly and ready to meet my requirements and working hard to get all in the shortest possible time. Overall, trustworthy and loyal and that's why I go back for help with any immigration issues..

      My partner and I have just completed the first stage in obtaining permanent residence Subclass 820 Visa for her in Australia and with the expert advise and assistance from Paul and his team at the Australian Education & Visa Centre it has been a reasonably easy and pleasing experience, to undertake this task without the assistance and expert advise from the Australian Education & Visa Centre would have been a very difficult task and may have end with a disappointing result.If anyone is considering applying for permanent residence in Australia for yourself or your partner I strongly urge you to consider getting advise and assistance from the Australian Education & Visa Centre and getting them to complete the application for you to ensure the best possible outcome.

      Sarah is a highly skilled and a very competent Migration Agent. She performed a very thorough job and ensured our application was accurate and flawless. Sarah spent a lot of time perfecting our application and, thanks to her attention to detail, we obtained the Visa in a very small amount of time, and in a lot less than expected. I could not recommend her and AEV centre more

      Sarah helped me get one of my visas approved during one of the hardest times in my life when I thought that there's no way that I can get all the steps done in time. And just recently I got approved of a visa that usually takes a year or two but we got it in less than 7 months. I will be forever grateful for all her efforts and she has been an instrument for my life to be changed in a wonderful and exciting way. I will definitely recommend her to my friends and family. She is very efficient in her work and is realistic when she gives advise regarding the necessary steps that needs to be taken for the visa processing. All the best to the AEV team.

      Six years ago, Paul guided us through the process of applying for a 143 visa. At that time processing was only supposed to take 18 months. We assume a hesitant Government together with the outbreak of Covid resulted in a very delayed outcome, however, setting that aside, today we’re happy to advise that the visa has been granted.Paul is extremely knowledgeable and carries much experience in the area of visa’s, we would highly recommend his services….Roman & Rita

      이번에 Kate 선생님께서 대학교 입학지원부터 진행까지 너무나도 친절히 도와주셔서 원하던 대학교에도 붙게되어서 너무나도 기뻤어요! 언제 어디서나 항상 연락드리면 바로 답장도 빨리왔고 무엇보다 진행도 빠르며 결과가 좋아서 너무 감사드렸어요! 비자신청도 처음부터 하나하나 알려주시고, 도와주신덕분에 비자도 빨리 받게되었구요! Kate 선생님이 너무나도 친절하셨고 친구처럼 잘 대해주셨어요 감사합니다 ㅎㅎㅎ 여기 AEV centre 너무나도 만족합니다~! 꼭 추천 드리고싶어요~!! ?

      Most people are struggling to stay in this country as visa terms because we are one of Austraila's foreigners. When you find an agency that helps you stay away from visa conditions while you study or work, a few of us have the experience that agency gives you wrong information or to be rude to you. Also I was paying for them before and I was disappointed. However, when I talked to the AEV centre, I felt different from others. Now I am still satisfied with them for three years. Thank you AEV :)

      Absolutely recommended AEV. Sarah helped me apply my NZ citizen family visa from the beginning till my visa has granted. During the waiting period I was facing few personal family issues back home. Sarah helped me out as much as she could with her perfessional suggestions and kept me updated at all time. I’m so thankful I have her as my agent.

      Its not often these days that you immediately feel like the most important person in the store, but that is how I felt when I walked through the door of the AEV Centre in Southport. I was greeted with a friendly smile and ushered to comfortable seats where I waited briefly for my appointment.Paul Kwons Offices are clean and fresh and as I glanced at his Certificates of achievements on the wall, I started to relax realising I was in qualified hands.I have lived in Australia for many years but realised I would need guaranteed support in my ageing years. I had tried a couple of on-line Visa Application options but had always run into one snag or another, I was starting to loose my patience.A friend encouraged me to seek professional help and I am happy to say the AEV Centre in Southport satisfied all my requirements and also had a open appointment for me when I was free.During our first meeting Paul mapped out the application procedure and created profiles and payment methods, it was dark before I left his office that first meeting but his smile never faded. I saw Paul at least two more times to confirm details and drop off paperwork as he asked for it, often his confirmation E mails would arrive well into the evening and I appreciated his assistance greatly.At my last visit he pressed the enter button and submitted my completed application. "This could take a while", was his last comment.I am excited to share that after seven months the Ministry has granted my application and I am well on the way to gaining Australian Citizenship.Many thanks to the Paul Kwon and his lovely staff at the Southport AEV Centre.

      A HUGE thank you to Kate at AEV. She helped me apply for my student visa and course with Academique. We applied at the end of August and was granted at the end of November. It was a simple 3 month process. Kate was very helpful and informative throughout and prompt with keeping me up to date. Highly recommend AEV for all students of any nationality!

I have no idea how these things work but with a single meeting with him, I kind of now understand what I should be expecting. Thank you Paul for the assistance. We really appreciate everything you have done to help us have an easy and straight forward application. Highly recommended.

      I've always been asked why I paid for an agent when I can process the application myself. My answer? Because my knowledge is only as much as I know. Working with Paul has made my entire journey a breeze. He makes you feel that he is not just a professional working with you but rather a friend who is there to answer your questions and doubts. He also is there anytime my nerves get to me when I am losing patience while waiting. He also lets you know important things that you have not even thought of as being important. His knowledge and qualification has made my application smooth and easy. He doesn't make you do things without an explanation and he makes sure you understand and know what you are up to. The cost of visa is no joke, if you have already spent for it, might as well spend a bit more to make sure that you are doing the right thing. With Paul, I can give my assurance that you are dealing with a genuine and honest person whose intention to get your visa is as high as yours. 5 stars recommendation.

      AEV has been helping me with processing the required visas from the get go since I came to Australia and got married. Even though there was a little time to apply for required visas, they managed to do it! And from then on they worked hard on on all the procedures and applications to get me permanent residency through bridging visas, partners visas till i got my permanent residency. Always friendly and ready to meet my requirements and working hard to get all in the shortest possible time. Overall, trustworthy and loyal and that's why I go back for help with any immigration issues..

He constantly reminded me that he's always available if I have any questions.Overall, Paul greatly represented and looked after his clients. I definitely recommend Paul to anyone who's needing an agent and migration adviser.Thank you very much again Paul for working with me! :)

      My partner and I have just completed the first stage in obtaining permanent residence Subclass 820 Visa for her in Australia and with the expert advise and assistance from Paul and his team at the Australian Education & Visa Centre it has been a reasonably easy and pleasing experience, to undertake this task without the assistance and expert advise from the Australian Education & Visa Centre would have been a very difficult task and may have end with a disappointing result.If anyone is considering applying for permanent residence in Australia for yourself or your partner I strongly urge you to consider getting advise and assistance from the Australian Education & Visa Centre and getting them to complete the application for you to ensure the best possible outcome.

      Sarah is a highly skilled and a very competent Migration Agent. She performed a very thorough job and ensured our application was accurate and flawless. Sarah spent a lot of time perfecting our application and, thanks to her attention to detail, we obtained the Visa in a very small amount of time, and in a lot less than expected. I could not recommend her and AEV centre more

      Sarah helped me get one of my visas approved during one of the hardest times in my life when I thought that there's no way that I can get all the steps done in time. And just recently I got approved of a visa that usually takes a year or two but we got it in less than 7 months. I will be forever grateful for all her efforts and she has been an instrument for my life to be changed in a wonderful and exciting way. I will definitely recommend her to my friends and family. She is very efficient in her work and is realistic when she gives advise regarding the necessary steps that needs to be taken for the visa processing. All the best to the AEV team.

      Six years ago, Paul guided us through the process of applying for a 143 visa. At that time processing was only supposed to take 18 months. We assume a hesitant Government together with the outbreak of Covid resulted in a very delayed outcome, however, setting that aside, today we’re happy to advise that the visa has been granted.Paul is extremely knowledgeable and carries much experience in the area of visa’s, we would highly recommend his services….Roman & Rita
