Ricci Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm currently in Australia with working visa. recently, I found subclass 835(remaining relatives visa) visa which gives me permanent visa by relative sponsor. I wonder whether I'm qualified, My condition is : 1. Step-father,Step-Mother,Step-brother,Step-Sister have New Zealand citizenship and they also have Australian Permanent residency. 2. I have one brother, mother 3. I want to migrate to Australia but my mum and brother don't want to leave for Australia. Is it possible to move to Australia, for just only me?

steven106 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 your best option will be speaking to a migration agent while you are in the country and give them all the information needed about your family etc, they might have some options for you..

VERYSTORMY Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 First, if your mother is not in Australia, then you do not qualify for a last remaining relative. Even if you could, this visa currently has a processing time of over 50 years. (That is not a typo). Your best east option would be to enjoy your holiday, go home, get some skills and experience and look at applying later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmaniac Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Apart from the fact that the current processing time for a Remaining Relative visa is currently 56+ years, you wouldn't even be eligible to apply. You must have no parents or siblings, step or natural, who are not Australian citizens or PRs and living in Australia. Your mother and brother are not Australian citizens or PRs living in Australia so you simply don't qualify. If you're serious about moving to Australia, get acceptable qualifications in an occupation on the SOL or CSOL and some work experience and then see if you can get a skilled immigration visa.

MaggieMay24 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 If you read the information about this visa on the DIBP website: "This visa allows someone in Australia whose only near relatives are living in Australia to: live in Australia as a permanent resident." you'll see that no, you won't qualify.
