Recently, more and more spouse visas have been consulted. The main reason is that the number of family quotas has decreased and the number of spouse visas has been directly reduced by half. Friends who want to immigrate should do it as early as possible. So what is the difference between applying for domestic and overseas applications for Australian spouse visas? The following editor of Xinghan will take you to learn more about it.

What is the difference between applying for domestic and overseas spouse visa for Australian spouse visa?

Apply for both domestic and overseas. The difference between the two can be directly approved in China. Overseas applications require application for overseas applications, and overseas approval can only be entered.

1. Overseas application

Overseas application indicates that the applicant must submit a visa application abroad in Australia. If you are an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident or a qualified New Zealand citizen, a partner or spouse can apply for an overseas visa 309 and 100 visa, and you must be outside Australia before you obtain a visa.

2. Domestic application

Domestic application indicates that the applicant applies for a spouse visa locally in Australia. If you are an Australian citizen, permanent resident or a qualified New Zealand citizen, you can apply for a domestic visa 820 and 801 visa. To obtain a visa, the applicant must be in Australia before applying and obtaining a visa.

clearly states the domestic visa application requirements on the official website of Immigration Bureau :

"When you apply for this visa, we decide on your temporary visa application, you must be in Australia. The family members who apply with you must also be in Australia."

Star Han reminder: If you apply for a spouse visa in China, you will get the bridge visa . This allows you to stay in Australia during the Australian visa application review.

After obtaining a bridge visa, you must understand the visa terms you hold in advance, because some bridge visas cannot work and various restrictions may be added.

A domestic application is easy or overseas application is easy?

No answer is easier. When reviewing spouse visa cases, it is most important to have sufficient evidence to prove whether the applicant’s relationship with his partner is a real spouse relationship. Although domestic applications have the following advantages:

1, you can directly obtain a bridge visa: When the applicant submits an application in China, he or she obtains a bridge visa during the trial (the approval time may be nearly 12-15 months), and can live in Australia with a bridge visa.

2. Enjoy the right to work: The bridge visa allows applicants to work in Australia.

3. Medical insurance: When waiting for the visa result of your spouse (partner) you can enjoy basic free medical insurance in Australia.

However, the trial process of domestic application application may be close to 12-15 months, while overseas application is much faster in this regard. In addition, those who cannot leave Australia if they apply for a bridge visa overseas (if there is a reasonable reason for leaving the country, they must first apply for a bridge visa B before they can leave the country).
