What family visas are available in Australia?
Prospective Marriage Visa
If you are engaged to an Australian citizen, permanent resident or New Zealand citizen, you can apply for a prospective marriage visa which allows you to come to Australia and marry your spouse. You must be outside Australia when the visa is granted and you must marry within 9 months.

Parent Visa
If you are the parent of a child who is an Australian citizen, permanent resident or New Zealand citizen who has settled in Australia, you may be eligible to apply for a parent visa. Both these visas are permanent, but take up to 30 years to process. However, you can typically stay In Australia on a bridging visa during this time.
Aged Parent Visa – Subclass 804
Parent Visa – Subclass 103
There is also the option to apply for a temporary parent visa. This visa allows parents who apply to live in Australia for up to two years if they have a child who is an Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen who has settled in Australia. On this visa you can live and work in Australia. You are also entitled to Medicare.
While the Contributory Parent (Temporary) Visa – Subclass 173 cannot be renewed, after arriving in Australia you can apply for the Contributory Parent Visa (Subclass 143) which allows you to spread the cost over a number of years.
