Generally, you must be sponsored by your child or step-child, or that child or step-child’s cohabiting partner.
A sponsor must be:
• Aged 18 years or over; and
• A settled Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident or an
• Eligible New Zealand citizen.
If your child or step-child has not turned 18 years, another person may act as sponsor as long as they have turned 18 years
of age and are a settled Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen. These may be:
• The cohabiting partner of your child or step-child; or
• A person who is a relative or guardian of your child or step-child; or
• A person who is a relative or guardian of the cohabiting partner; or
• A community organisation.
To be an eligible sponsor, your sponsor must be able to show that s/he is settled and, that s/he is usually resident in Australia.
Settled means that your potential sponsor has been living in Australia in her/his capacity as an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen for at least 2 years before lodging a parent visa application. Under policy, two years is generally considered to be a reasonable period.
There may be exceptions, however, and the facts of each case are considered on an individual basis by the officer of the department who is making the decision, particularly if there have been periods of lawful temporary residence that can appropriately be counted towards the settled requirement.
A shorter period of lawful residence may be considered for Australian citizens for settled purposes if there are compassionate and compelling circumstances. As a matter of policy, the eligibility period for Australian citizen sponsors in such circumstances is at
least three months’ residence.
Our Department cannot determine the sponsor eligibility before the parent visa application has been lodged.
