Parent Visas (Working Age/Aged) (Subclasses 103, 804)

These visa categories were permanently closed to new applications on 2 June 2014. No further applications can be made. This is for reference only.

Parents are eligible for migration to Australia if they have a child living in Australia who is eligible to sponsor them. The child of the applicant must be an Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen.

To be eligible for this visa, the applicant (parent) must pass the “balance of family test”. Passing the test will mean that the parent will have more children in Australia than in any part of the world, and the sponsors are settled in Australia. The child needs to have lived in Australia for two years immediately prior to the application.

The applicant must also pass the health and character requirements.

If the applicant is a working age parent, then the application must usually be lodged outside Australia.

Aged Parent

Aged Parents can lodge their applications within Australia.

The applicant parent must also meet health and character requirements.

  • stay in Australia indefinitely
  • work and study in Australia
  • enroll in Australia’s scheme for health-related care and expenses
  • apply for Australian citizenship (if you are eligible)sponsor eligible relatives for permanent residence
