Kayleigh Mac Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Good evening, I am looking for some advice in respect of Visas. Myself, partner and son (1yr old) are looking to emigrate to Brisbane however we have no clue which visas we need. My mum & Sister already hold Australian citizenship and reside in Brisbane and we’re now looking to join them and hopefully one day also becoming citizens. Is there a family visa we can apply for due to my mother and sister being there? Alternatively my partner has a skilled trade, he is a Plant Engineer, would a skilled trade visa be the better option? Any advice you can offer would be hugely appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 There is no family visa for daughters or sisters, sorry. Your only option is a skilled visa. When I migrated to Australia, I did everything myself, but I wouldn't advise trying that these days. Best plan is to book a meeting with a good migration agent and go through your situation with them. Try Suncoast Migration or Go Matilda.

calNgary Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 You should be able to get a Skilled Visa with Plant engineer as the occupation. Personally i would have a quick chat /consultation with an agent, as many trades can be crossed referenced and they will let you know which visa they think is most suitable for you with the qualification's you have.
