frequently asked questions
You can learn more from our asked questions
Processing times for the subclass 309 visa Australia vary depending on your country of application and application quality. On average, 50% of applications are processed in 11–12 months, 75% in 17–18 months, and 90% may take up to 22–24 months. Quality, completeness, and country-specific volume play significant roles in wait times.
Yes! Once your 309 provisional visa is granted, you can live, work, and study in Australia without restrictions. You’re also eligible to enrol in Medicare. However, you must fund your education yourself—no government study loans.
Delays often stem from:
Incomplete documentation, especially for relationship evidence or health/character checks.
Health or character follow-ups, such as additional medical tests or background investigations.
High application volumes, especially from specific countries.
Changes in your personal circumstances (e.g., new address, relationship status) without timely updates
You’re not required to hire one, but a registered MARA migration agent can greatly help. They ensure your application is “decision-ready”, reducing mistakes and the likelihood of delays or refusals. Statistics show agent-prepared applications have a higher success rate and GIEC GLOBAL UK is MARA Registered.
If your Australia partner visa offshore status holder splits from their sponsor before the subclass 100 permanent stage, the Subclass 309 visa may be cancelled. Exceptions exist for genuine breakups due to domestic violence or if there are children involved. Always inform the Department immediately if your situation changes.
Absolutely. Immigration officers often request further information during processing. Responding promptly and uploading new evidence every 3–6 months—like updated bank statements, travel photos, or lease documents—can keep your file current and support your case.
