Partner Visa Relationship & Application Timeline (Full Case Study 1) In this video our principal immigration lawyer, Martin Salvo, discusses the full case study for Partner Visa Relationship Application Timeline for couples. Key Topics Covered In This Video: TIMESTAMP 00:50 - It's really about showing you an example of what an approved partner visa looks like with regards to a couple's relationship timeline, and also their application timeline. ​​ TIMESTAMP 3:51 - There isn't a definitive blanket equation to determine when a couple become de facto in all honesty really just depends on all of their relationship facts and what they did prior to the claim date. TIMESTAMP 5:56 - We suggest that it would be better to try to bring the partner here first, to apply for a travel exemption. TIMESTAMP 8:31- We had all the relationship evidence on file, we had the police clearances on file and we had already organized medicals meaning that in street lingo partner visa street lingo, it was decision ready. TIMESTAMP 9:40 - The stronger an application is, the stronger the couple. The stronger the relationship, the faster it can be processed by the department because there's less questions that need to be asked. TIMESTAMP 10:48 - The sooner that you can do that in your relationship timeline, the stronger your relationship facts are going to be when the visa is applied for. ​ TIMESTAMP 11:28 -  The case officer will look at two things, the couple's relationship statements, and then the couple's relationship timeline image.

Breaking Down The 2nd Stage Permanent Partner Visa Application Process In this podcast our principal immigration lawyer, Martin Salvo, discusses INSERT SUMMARY Insert quick recap of key topics here... Key Topics Covered In This Video: TIMESTAMP 1:35 - There are three partner visa options to Australia. Some for OFFSHORE applicants, and one for ONSHORE applicants. TIMESTAMP 3:31 - Applying as a married/spousal couple or defacto couple is still really the same thing - you both need to show you are more than just dating according to the four aspects of your relationship. TIMESTAMP 5:25 - Case officers have complete discretion to determine if you are in a defacto or spousal relationship (or neither) when you submit your application. TIMESTAMP 5:40 - Getting legally married does not automatically mean you will be able to evidence you are in a married/spousal relationship. TIMESTAMP 8:11 - Where the applicant intends to be will determine the type of partner visa that may be best suited. Onshore or offshore? TIMESTAMP 9:16 - Couples that initially apply for a PMV and then marry overseas whilst the visa is processing must convert their application to a 309.

Which Scenario are you? Onshore, Offshore or Apart? In this video our principal immigration lawyer, Martin Salvo, discusses the different scenario of the relationship of the partner visa applicants and sponsors whether they are Onshore, Offshore or Apart. Key Topics Covered In This Video: TIMESTAMP 1:20 - The most ideal scenario is where the couple is already here, living onshore and looking to apply for an onshore partner visa. TIMESTAMP 3:58 - For offshore couples that are looking to come quickly, applying for a temporary visa and come onshore will suit you. Onshore applicants has more benefits as well. TIMESTAMP 6:35 - For offshore applications, there's competing timelines. How long will the offshore partner visa take versus how long do you have left on the temporary visa that's been granted to you. TIMESTAMP 7:27- The good news is currently, onshore and offshore partner visas can be processed relatively quickly compared to the last couple of years where you may have been waiting 12, 18, 24 months. TIMESTAMP 9:29 - We ensure that whatever we do, we are reducing any possibility for couples to be separated. TIMESTAMP 9:48 - For couples that are physically apart, you may find it more difficult to obtain and accumulate the types of documentation and evidence which are required to prove that you're in a de facto or spousal relationship. TIMESTAMP 11:39 - The visa options that would work best for you would really depends on your scenario, whether or not you are onshore, both living offshore or currently living apart.

Do Age Gaps Really Matter in an Australian Partner Visa Application? In this video our principal immigration lawyer, Martin Salvo, talks about the 'elephant in the room' when couples present age gaps in relationships, to what extent they can affect an Australian partner visa and what couples can do to address any potential issues head on. Key Topics Covered In This Podcast 1:07 - The law does not specify that an age gap will lead to a partner visa refusal, however, it can be part of the overall assessment of the genuineness of a relationship. 1:59 - Age gaps can play a role in the level of scrutiny in a Partner visa application. 3:25 - An age gap in a relationship can present an 'elephant in the room' which should be addressed head-on in a couple's relationship statements. 4:35 - If applicable to your facts, ensure your friends and family comment on your age gap in their supporting statements. 5:04 - It is a misconception that family overseas cannot complete Form 888s. 6:05 - It is important that you normalize any age gap in your Partner visa application. Address it, explain it, give it context and show the DHA your love is ageless! 7:02 - Younger male applicants from high-risk countries of passports are, in my humble opinion, more likely to face scrutiny surrounding any age gap. ---- Want to learn the secrets about Australian Partner Visas, options, legal requirements and how to get your application approved, WITHOUT needing an Agent or Lawyer?

In this video our principal immigration lawyer, Martin Salvo, discusses what to do if you receive a Request for Information from the Department of Home Affairs for your Australian Partner visa application. Insert quick recap of key topics here... Key Topics Covered In This Video: 1:29 - Acknowledgement Letters are typically generated instantly after lodgement of an Australian Partner visa 2:16 - The DHA are actively prioritizing Partner visa applications that have all relationship evidence, medicals and required police clearances from Applicants & Sponsors. 4:33 - In my experience, 9 out of 10 well-prepared Partner visas will only be requested to provide outstanding Medicals and Police Clearances, if at all. 5:21 - Attaching evidence that you 'intend to provide' any requested documentation or information from your application should prevent a refusal if things are still missing after 28 days. 6:31 - Attaching a signed statement to your application explaining that you are in the process of providing requested documentation is always advisable. 7:07 - You should always rename your documents to demonstrate to the DHA you intend to provide requested items, such as 'Character - Indian PCC - Intention to Provide - Receipt for Application'. 8:26 - People panic when they receive a 28 day deadline on an RFI because they do not know how to correctly deal and keep the DHA informed on how they are going obtaining what has been requested. ---- Want to learn the secrets about Australian Partner Visas, options, legal requirements and how to get your application approved, WITHOUT needing an Agent or Lawyer?

In the video you will see me explain the three main considerations in determining when might be a safe and appropriate time for a couple to press submit on their application keeping in mind the importance of Time of Application Criteria for most Australian partner & spouse visa subclasses. Key Topics Covered In This Video: 01:15 For onshore Partner visa applicants, a visa expiry is often the key determining factor in when a Partner visa is submitted. 02:08 The temptation to submit your Partner visa just to secure your Bridging Visa should not outweigh getting the partner visa granted 04:13 Couples should be strategic and possibly look to delay the lodgement of their Partner visa, but of course, factoring in any visa expiry date. 05:27 Given current processing times, its never been a better time to submit a Partner visa if you meet the requirements. 07:01 Certain couples may elect to first extend their current temporary visa with the intention to apply for their Partner visa later in their timeline when it is safer. 07:52 If you are overseas, then the two prevailing factors in when you should apply for your partner visa typically are a) When do you want to be here, and b) When will you meet the visa requirements? 08:42 The three key factors All of this, and more, is covered in this video.
