PROSPECTIVE MARRIAGE 300 VISA

The Prospective Marriage visa, often known as the fiancé visa, is designed for individuals who plan to enter Australia and marry their future spouse within the nine-month validity period of the visa. The intended spouse must be an Australian citizen or a permanent resident.

This temporary visa serves as the initial step towards obtaining permanent residency in Australia. Applications for this visa must be submitted from outside Australia, and the applicant must also be outside Australia when the visa is granted.

As this is a sponsorship-based visa, the fiancé must be prepared to sponsor the applicant and meet certain eligibility requirements. The sponsor must be an Australian citizen, or a permanent resident of Australia, or an eligible New Zealand citizen, and must meet the character requirements set by Australia. Typically, the sponsor must be over 18 years old, but there are situations where this requirement can be waived. In such cases, the sponsor’s parent or guardian may be able to sponsor the applicant if they are an Australian citizen, a permanent resident of Australia, or an eligible New Zealand citizen.
