Family, Partner & Spouse Migration
Securing a future for your family in Australia requires more than administrative filing; it necessitates proving the depth and authenticity of your personal life. TGIF Legal specializes in articulating the unique narrative of your relationship to meet the Department’s high evidentiary thresholds. We focus on building decision-ready applications to mitigate the risk of information requests or processing delays.
Legislative Framework
Family migration is governed by Schedule 2 of the Migration Regulations 1994. The primary legal hurdle for partner visas is the Genuine and Continuing test. We provide a rigorous framework to address the four legal pillars required for a successful application: the financial aspects of the relationship, the nature of the household, social aspects, and the nature of the commitment.
Subclass Breakdown
- Subclasses 820/801 & 309/100 (Partner Visas): The primary pathways for spouses or de facto partners of Australian citizens or permanent residents, covering both onshore and offshore applications.
- Subclass 300 (Prospective Marriage): For individuals intending to marry their Australian partner, providing a 9 to 15 month stay to facilitate the marriage and subsequent transition to a Partner visa.
- Parent & Child Visas: Including Contributory Parent (Subclass 143) and Child (Subclass 101) streams, which involve complex Balance of Family testing and Assurance of Support (AoS) requirements.
