Partner (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 309)

The Partner (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 309) is the initial step towards obtaining a permanent Partner Visa (Subclass 100). It enables the de facto partner or spouse of an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen to live in Australia temporarily. This visa allows you to live, work, and study in Australia while your permanent Partner visa application is being processed. Additionally, you can travel to and from Australia as many times as you want, attend free English language classes if eligible, and apply for access to Medicare.
