What is a Parent Visa?

A Parent Visa allows parents of a settled Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen to migrate to Australia to live with their children.

How long does it take to process a Parent Visa?

The processing time for Parent Visas can vary based on several factors, including the specific visa subclass, application volume, and individual circumstances.
