lalitnagulapati Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Hi,Me, my wife and our daughter already have a PR (sub class 189) but we have not yet relocated to Australia. I was just wondering, if we have a another kid now, before moving to Australia, will our second kid also get PR automatically or is there any procedure involved ?

Collie Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I don't actaully know the answer to this one. Interesting question. Is the answer not on the Immi website somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammygirl Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 No. If born outside of Australia you will need to get a child visa for them. Only children born to Citizens outside of Australia would be Citizens by descent. Children born in Australia to PR parents will be Australian citizens by birth and British by descent.

rammygirl Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 As above. The child will not automatically be entitled to any visa. You should apply for a child visa, look up on the immigration website I think it is a 101 visa. It will need to be done ASAP as they take a few months to process.

sm02fly Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 A little late but I looked at this in early 2017 as I am in this situation but have not submitted an application as yet. The forms you need are the 40CH and 47CH for an offshore application. You will also need a medical for the child and to pay the visa fee (I forget, but I think it was over £1,000 at the time). In the UK, I think you need to apply to the AUS embassy in London for this Visa. There is an onshore option too if you do not think your visa would be granted in time, obviously this would carry more risk. You also would need to leave Australia and return to activate the child's PR visa once it was approved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
