The Contributory Parent visa (subclass 143) is a permanent visa that allows parents to live in Australia permanently with their children who are Australian citizens, permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens. The subclass 173 visa is a temporary visa that allows parents to live in Australia for up to two years while their permanent subclass 143 visa application is processed. These visas require a significant contribution to the Australian community, including a substantial visa application charge.
The Contributory Aged Parent visa (subclass 864) is a permanent visa for aged parents who are eligible for an Australian aged pension. This visa allows parents to live in Australia permanently with their children who are Australian citizens, permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens. The subclass 884 visa is a temporary visa that allows parents to live in Australia for up to two years while their permanent subclass 864 visa application is processed. Like the Contributory Parent visa, these visas require a substantial visa application charge.
The Parent visa (subclass 103) is a permanent visa that allows parents to live in Australia permanently with their children who are Australian citizens, permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens. This visa has a significantly longer processing time compared to the contributory parent visas and does not require the payment of a substantial visa application charge. However, the processing time for this visa can be several years.
To be eligible for a Parent visa, applicants must meet certain criteria, including meeting the balance of family test, being sponsored by their child who must be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen, and meeting health and character requirements. The specific requirements may vary depending on the type of parent visa being applied for.
