Case Summary

A couple who had independently lodged their own Subclass 820 Partner Visa application two years earlier sought our assistance for the second-stage Subclass 801 Permanent Partner Visa. We helped compile the necessary ongoing relationship evidence and secured the permanent visa grant.

Background

Our clients had lodged their own Subclass 820 Partner Visa two years earlier without professional assistance, and it was successfully granted. They now needed assistance with the second stage — the Subclass 801 Permanent Partner Visa. Under the two-stage partner visa system, applicants holding the 820 can apply for the 801 two years after the original 820 lodgement date. The couple needed to demonstrate they still met the eligibility criteria.

Challenges

  • Couple had not used professional services at the first stage, so the 801 submission needed to be prepared from scratch
  • Evidence of the couple's continuing and genuine relationship over the two years was needed

How We Helped

We assisted the couple to compile the necessary evidence package for the 801 application, documenting the ongoing genuine nature of their relationship across financial, social, commitment and household dimensions. We ensured the application was comprehensive and decision-ready.
