Partner Visa Australia: Onshore (820) vs Offshore (309). Which Path is Best?
Are you and your Australian partner trying to decide between the onshore Subclass 820 and the offshore Subclass 309 Partner Visa? Understanding the fundamental difference is the first step in your journey together, and it all comes down to one simple factor: your physical location at the time you apply.
In this video, I walk you through the two main pathways for the Australian Partner Visa. We'll explore the onshore 820 visa, including the crucial role of the Bridging Visa A (BVA) which allows you to remain in Australia with your partner. We then contrast this with the offshore 309 visa process for applicants who are outside of Australia.
Understanding the implications of each stream, from work rights to the practicalities of staying together, is key to making an informed decision. We will also touch on the core requirements that are the same for both visas, such as proving your genuine and ongoing relationship.
Navigating this process involves many moving parts. At Flow Migration Law, we focus on providing structured and actionable guidance to help you move forward.
