820 Spouse sponsored visa

This visa is a spouse visa (also known as a partner visa, marriage visa, spouse immigration, etc.) submitted in Australia, which allows the de facto partner or spouse of Australian citizens, Australian permanent residents and eligible New Zealand citizens to immigrate to Australia and reunite with them. The 820 visa is the temporary residence stage of spouse immigration, also known as the first stage. After approval, if you meet the requirements, you can apply for the 801 visa, which is the permanent residence stage of the spouse visa, to achieve the ultimate goal of immigrating to Australia and reuniting with your partner.
