Bungo Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Children. Your parents have five children, not siblings. :wink: That is an interesting one. Your situation isn't covered by the table unfortunately as it is only examples. The wording states that there has to be more children in Australia than in any other country, which isn't the case for your parents. Alternatively the parents could qualify by having at least half their children in Australia, which is why somebody with two children and only one in Australia would pass the test, but again your parents do not meet this criteria. So I would interpret this as no, they do not qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip1 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 No, at least 50% of their children must reside in Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
