There is also a subclass available to same-sex couples. > Back to top Visas for Family Members There are 3 categories of family visas. These are visas for a Child, a Parent or an Other Family relative of an Australian. The Child stream provides visa options for dependent children (either natural, adopted or stepchildren) or an Australian sponsor. There are also provisions for orphaned children to be sponsored. The Parent stream provides visa options for people who are the parent of a child who is a settled Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible NZ citizen. The Other Family stream provides visa options for Aged Dependent Relatives, Remaining Relatives or Carers. > Back to top Visas for Students Student visas are available for people who want to undertake an approved course of study in Australia. You need to demonstrate that you are able to support yourself financially while in Australia, and that you will study on a full-time basis. If you hold a student visa, you may apply for permission to work up to 20 hours per week while studying. > Back to top Other Temporary Visas There are a range of temporary visas available to come to Australia for tourism or holidaying, for short business trips, for medical treatment, to attend a conference or event, to spend some time during your retirement or to visit for example. > Back to top Visas for Refugees or Asylum Seekers The Humanitarian Program comprises two components: offshore resettlement for people in humanitarian need overseas; and onshore protection for those people already in Australia who arrived on temporary visas or in an unauthorised manner, and who claim Australia’s protection.
