Sammy1 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 He and your daughter would have to apply for a partner visa and pay for it because he does not hold a valid visa of his own. It makes no difference that your daughter got PR through being a dependent. If she has PR then her husband can apply as her partner. However,one issue for your daughter may be how long you have been back in the UK and if residence was ever taken up in Australia etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, ok. I guess you knew the answer to your own question then? The 445 is a temporary visa though. Does your daughter have a permanent visa now? I was wrong perhaps, although it would not be your daughter applying for a partner visa, it would your son in law. Very strange if they get to apply for a visa for free....I still think he would have to pay. Anyway, somebody will come along, a migration agent hopefully, who will give you precise information - which I am also interested to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozmaniac Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 A PR can't sponsor a partner until the PR is resident in Australia. If your daughter wants her husband to come to Australia with her, he will have to come on some other visa and then apply for an onshore Partner visa after she has established residence here. The cost of an onshore Partner visa is $4575 and they are currently taking 13+ months to be processed. If he applies for an onshore Partner visa, he will be granted a Bridging visa that will take effect when his entry visa expires and which will allow him to stay in Australia (with unrestricted work rights) until a decision is reached on his Partner visa application.

MovingtoTasmania Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I read that as meaning that anyone currently holding a Dependent Child Visa and then marrying as Aus, can apply for a Partner Visa free of charge. Perhaps ask a migration agent for advice on this matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovingtoTasmania Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/445.aspx Having read the Visa pages, the nil charge does appear to a Dependent Child holder applying for permanent Partner visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Forget about the 445 visa - this does not apply to your situation. A Dependent Child visa (subclass 445) is a temporary visa for the child of a parent who holds a temporary Partner visa that does not already include the child. Your daughter's new husband will need to apply for the Partner visa, with your daughter as the sponsor. http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/booklets/1127.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 1234 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 At the end of the day, it's not your daughter applying for the partner visa, but her husband. So the full fee will be payable; plus medical, PCC etc etc. Being a 'new husband', there will also be a lot of evidence required to prove their relationship is genuine.

Ozmaniac Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 The nil pricing for a Partner visa only applies if the applicant for the visa hold a temporary 445 Dependent Child visa. Your daughter wouldn't be the applicant for the Partner visa; the applicant would be her husband (she is the sponsor and that's not the same thing). Even if that isn't what "17b People who apply for a Partner visa and who hold a Dependent Child visa (Subclass 445) are eligible for a nil Visa Application Charge" means, you've told us that she has PR yet a 445 is a temporary visa. If she has PR, she wouldn't still be eligible. Sounds like you should consult a good RMA for clarification though to me, it seems pretty clear that they will need to pay for a Partner visa.

MaggieMay24 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 To clarify - what visa does your daughter hold? If you have PR status and your daughter was included in your application, then she would also have PR status. As such, she should be able to sponsor her husband. He would have to pay the normal partner visa application fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
