How to take my child to Australia

[Tasmiha]

I am writing from Bangladesh. I am a PR holder of Australia, currently living in my country and have delivered baby who is now 1 month old. I would like to know how can i take my child to Australia? I know about visa subclass 101 a little. Is there any other faster way to take my child to Australia?

I don't know the answer sorry but I wanted to say congratulations on the birth of your baby.

Not really. Apply as soon as you can if you are in a hurry

I don't know if you already got the answer but unfortunately Child Visa is the best method for taking your baby to Australia permanently. The other option you have is to apply Tourist Visa and Child Visa together and take your child on tourist visa. Once the Child Visa is granted, your Child would have to leave the country and come back as PR. I think if your Child's tourist visa does not have a "No Further Stay" condition you could apply for Onshore Child Visa 802. The Child visa normally gets granted soon if you have all the documents ready, otherwise you could take a chance by applying for tourist visa and if eligible bring the child here and apply for onshore Child visa. I would suggest you check with the registered migration agent regarding the possibility. Subclass 101 is the best way forward if you ask me.
