Dragonflygecko Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 When you turn 18 apply for a Working Holiday Visa it's for 12 months and then your dad could try help you gain further visas in the future. :wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Maybe one for the migration experts to answer, but i'm wondering if you're still 17 and in full time education your dad could apply for a visa for you retrospectively as a dependant? I want to point out that I don't know if this is even possible but it was a question that popped into my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que Sera Sera Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 As above I think you may be able to apply for the child visa or rather your Dad may be able to. Don't think there are any other options for your partner other than the WHV. Hopefully someone more experienced will be along to help. In the meantime ask in the ask an agent section.

Brodie and Chloe. You should look at the possibility of having your dad sponsor you for a child visa while you are still under 18, as this will gain you Permanent Residency in Australia. Your partner can look at coming to Australia on a Working Holiday visa. Once you are a Permanent Resident, you can then look at ways to sponsor your partner for a Partner Visa. My advice is to discuss your plan with your dad and then get professional advice, as you may have a short period to obtain Permanent Residency. If you do not get it through a Child visa, you will have a very long and uncertain road to Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
