Prospective Marriage Visa - English Version

Prospective Marriage Australian Eta Visas, aka Fianc?e Visas or Fianc? Visas (Subclass 300) For Australian Filipina couples intending to get married in Australia. The Prospective Marriage Visa allows an Australian Citizen,Permanent Resident, or Eligible New Zealand Citizen to bring their fianc?e from Philippines to Australia and to marry her within 9 months of the grant. Note that the Prospective Marriage Visa option is also open to same-sex couples who wish to marry in Australia. It means you must be legally free to marry (ie.  never married, or already divorced),and you must be ready and fully committed to marrying in Australia within the visa period. After the wedding you apply for a Subclass 820 Onshore Temporary Partner Visa. After two years of a successful relationship, a Subclass 801 Permanent Partner Visa may be granted. The Prospective Marriage Visa is the ideal visa choice for those who wish to marry in Australia, but wish to do so at a steady pace. It gives you time to prepare the application and to prepare a wedding in Australia just the way you want it rather than rushing to meet a deadline.

Definitely not a full Australia visa application. Yes, it costs. But it is not the same as a stand-alone onshore partner visa application,despite having the same title and visa number (Subclass 820). It's less work because less is required, however we still advise getting it professionally managed as some perfectly smart people have managed to get their applications refused. And as long as you do everything in time, she will remain in Australia on a Bridging Visa A while the application is being processed. No need to leave Australia and you!Permanent Partner Visa (two years after last application lodged)You apply for this visa at the same time as applying for a temporary partner visa, iean 820/801 application.
