Joshisla Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hi Everyone New to this forum and looking for some of you to share your knowledge. My wife and I are currently waiting for our Contributory Visa to be granted(both my adult children are Australian citizens). When it's granted it is our intention to move to OZ and bring my 85 year old mother in law with us. I was hoping to bring her on a holiday visa and then once we get to Oz, apply for an aged parent visa for her. My understanding is that she would be granted a bridging visa until the aged parent visa comes through(which will probably never happen as the waiting list is that long). This would obviously then be able to live with us here on a permanent basis. Would this be the best pay to go about it, am i missing something, or are there any other ways you can suggest?

wrussell Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Sounds as if you migfht have misunderstood what is possible. It might pay you to consult a registered migration agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your mother would need sponsorship by a settled child, that is one that has lived in Australia for at least two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 So you plan on bringing her on a tourist visa intending to have her stay? Not a terribly bright move and you run the risk of her not being allowed in. Talk to an agent but she may just have to wait until you're settled enough for her CPV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que Sera Sera Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Does she really want to move to the other side of the world at her age? A massive thing for her I'd have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are posting for advice on how to rort the visa system, you might be better not using your (presumably) real name and location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little ray Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi, can't give you any info for your mum but could you help me. We too are waiting for our CPV very early days for us, our application went in in April and the first application fee was taken at the end of April but we have had no correspondence with the Immigration service up to now. How advanced is your application, what was your timeline..... just want to get some idea really and a little more precise than 12 to 24 months....Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refer to the initial posts where you are getting good advice, that you don't appear to have noticed that your mother in law wont have had a settled child living in Australia for 2 years. You say you haven't even got the visa yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
