If you take 103 visa for your parents it takes almost 30 years before it granted, if you take much shorter time it cost much, but you still pass the family balance.. getting your parent in australia is very difficult it is like a bussiness, 50k each, For your mother and father visa. And then here another visa sponsoring your single family for age family visa, so easy to sponsor…..
