Australian Partner/Parent/Child Visas
There are many visa types for Partner visas(spouse), Parent and Child visas and we at VisaEnvoy have agents who are specialised in Family migration. Whether inside or outside Australia we can assist you in a range of family migration including Carer and remaining relative visas. Contact us to get updated information on family migration options.
According to The Australian Bureau of Statistics over 50% of Australians have at least one parent who is born overseas. If you are one of these Australian families and would like to bring your parents to Australia contact us to discuss parent visa pathways. Family Visa Team at VisaEnvoy provides ethical, culturally sensitive, person and goal centred service to both parents from overseas and their sponsors from Australia. With the ever increasing child care prices, we understand the importance of having your parents around to assist you with raising your children, but also the cultural expectation of taking care of your elderly parents. Fees for family members are extra. See visa application charges from 1 July 2026 for the full list.Family visa guides
