suryaprasanna Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I have been granted a permanent residency (subclass 189). I married after I had been granted the visa. Now I have to apply for a partner visa. I went to the immi website and found that we can apply for 100/800/820 visas. right now i am in India but next month 5th I will be in Australia. Should I apply for the partner visa after I go to Australia (onshore). Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The visa your partner will apply for (since you already have a visa) will depend on where s/he is at the time of applying. If s/he is outside Australia, then s/he applies for the 309/100 visa, if s/he is in Australia s/he applies for the 820/801 visa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toOZ2012 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Looks like you haven't activated your PR yet. I think you need to do that before you can apply for a partner visa. Partners of Australian citizens can apply even if both of them are out of the country but it is a bit different for PRs. A PR should be in the country to sponsor his/her partner but I know of a case where it wasn't strictly enforced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
