Visa TypeSubclass 820 / Subclass 801
CategoryPartner Visa

Case Summary

A traveller who met their Australian citizen partner in Australia had a Subclass 820 Partner Visa granted within two weeks of lodgement. Two years later, we successfully lodged and secured the Subclass 801 Permanent Partner Visa, demonstrating the couple's continuing and genuine long-term relationship.

Background

Our client had met their sponsor while travelling through Australia. The couple entered into a genuine de facto relationship, commenced cohabitation and became both emotionally and financially reliant on one another. We compiled compelling evidence and obtained the Subclass 820 grant within two weeks. Two years later, the couple became eligible to apply for the Subclass 801 Permanent Partner Visa and returned to us for assistance.

Challenges

  • Second stage 801 application required renewed and comprehensive evidence of a continuing relationship over two years
  • Attention to detail in compiling all four categories of relationship evidence for the 801 submission

How We Helped

For the Subclass 801 application, we prepared a detailed submission with extensive evidence of the couple's longstanding and continuing relationship, addressing the financial, social, commitment and household aspects of their life together. We ensured all criteria were met before lodgement.
