Frequently asked questions

Can I include another family member when applying for a Subclass 804 visa?

Absolutely yes if that person meets the requirements.

I’ve read the article about a Subclass 870 visa on VEM’s website before. That 870 visa doesn’t require the balance-of-family test. So does this 804 visa apply the same requirement?

For a Subclass 840 visa, this requirement is necessary as it plays an important role in the success of your visa approval.

Can I apply for a bridging visa while my Subclass 804 visa is being processed?

Yes, you can. The Subclass 804 visa requires the applicants to be onshore while applying. Thus, you’ll be provided with a bridging visa to stay in Australia.

I’m currently holding a Subclass 804 visa and living in Australia as a permanent resident. Can I travel to other countries?

Yes. You can travel in and out of Australia as many times as you want for 5 years from the date the visa is granted. You will need to apply for and be granted a Resident Return (RRV) so that you can re-enter Australia as a permanent resident.

Are there any visas to sponsor my parents with lesser waiting times?

The answer is yes. There are two Subclasses which allow you to sponsor your parents.

First is the Contributory Aged Parent (Temporary) visa – subclass 884. Second is the Contributory Aged Parent (Permanent) visa – subclass 864.
