Learn about onshore & offshore Partner visa options. Trusted Sunshine Coast migration agent helping couples secure permanent residency in Australia
Understanding the Australian Partner Visa Options
Applying for a Partner visa can be one of the most important steps in building your future in Australia. Whether you are married or in a de facto relationship with an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen, the Australian Partner visa offers a pathway to permanent residency and eventually citizenship. Many couples, however, are unsure whether they should apply onshore or offshore, and what evidence is required.
As a Registered Migration Agent on the Sunshine Coast, I help couples navigate these options with clear advice and professional guidance.
Why Use a Migration Agent?
Partner visa applications are complex, and many refusals come from insufficient evidence or misunderstandings of requirements. By working with a Migration Agent on the Sunshine Coast, you can:
- Receive personalised advice for your circumstances
- Avoid costly mistakes and unnecessary delays
- Gain support in preparing strong relationship evidence
- Understand your rights while waiting for a decision.
Take the Next Step
At LIVE-LIFE Australia Migration Services, we are here to guide you every step of the way. With expertise in Partner and Prospective Marriage visas, we make the process clear, supportive, and stress-free.
Onshore Partner Visa (Subclass 820/801)
If you are already in Australia, you can apply for the onshore Partner visa. You’ll be granted a temporary visa (Subclass 820) while waiting for assessment of your permanent visa (Subclass 801). This allows you to remain in Australia, access Medicare, and often apply for work rights while the application is processed.
Offshore Partner Visa (Subclass 309/100)
If you are outside Australia, you can apply for the offshore Partner visa. You’ll first be granted a temporary visa (Subclass 309), and once eligible, progress to the permanent visa (Subclass 100). This pathway allows couples to start their application while living abroad, with the flexibility to travel to Australia after the temporary visa grant.
Key Partner Visa Requirements
To succeed in your application, you will need to show:
- A genuine and continuing relationship with your partner
- Marriage or a de facto relationship (usually at least 12 months unless exempt)
- Evidence of financial commitment, social recognition, and shared household
- Health and character clearances
- A sponsor who is an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen
Prospective Marriage Visa (Subclass 300)
For couples who are engaged but not yet married, the Prospective Marriage visa offers a pathway to join your partner in Australia. This visa is lodged offshore and allows you to enter Australia, marry your sponsor within 9–15 months, and then apply for the onshore Partner visa (Subclass 820/801).
Key Features:
- Must be outside Australia when applying and when the visa is granted
- Evidence of a genuine intention to marry within the visa period
- Same sponsor eligibility as Partner visas (Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible NZ citizen)
- Provides a pathway to permanent residency after marriage
This option is particularly helpful for couples not yet living together but committed to starting their life together in Australia.
