Migrating to Australia
- Migration to Australia as a Skilled Person
Australia's permanent immigration program has two components:
Migration – for Skilled, Family and Special Eligibility migrants.
Humanitarian – for refugees and others with humanitarian needs.
The 'Skilled' Program is specifically designed to target migrants who have skills or outstanding abilities that will contribute to the Australian economy.
- Spouse - Partner Migration
Partner migration allows the grant of a visa that permits legally married (de jure) partners, de facto partners and interdependent partners (including those in a same-sex relationship) of Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents or eligible New Zealand citizens to enter and/or to remain permanently in Australia. Initially, partners who meet the legal criteria for the grant of the visa are granted a temporary visa. Later, a permanent visa may be granted following an eligibility period or, if there is along-standing relationship, soon after grant of the temporary visa.
Partner migration also allows for the temporary entry to Australia of intended spouses (fiancé(e)s) of Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents or eligible New Zealand citizens.
