If you are engaged to an Australian Permanent Resident or Citizen, the Prospective Marriage Visa is likely the most suitable visa for you.
The Prospective Marriage Visa a temporary is for people who want to come to Australia to marry their prospective spouse who is an Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident.
If granted, your Prospective Marriage Visa will allow you to come to Australia for nine months. Once you marry your Australian spouse, you will be eligible to apply for a Partner Visa.
If you apply for a Partner Visa as the holder of a Prospective Marriage Visa, the government charges you a significantly reduced application fee.
There are limitations that apply if your Australian fiancée has previously sponsored other people for a Prospective Marriage Visa or Partner Visa. We will inform you of these limitations in our initial discussion with you.
