Processing Times

Typical Processing Durations

The 100 Partner Visa is typically processed within 6 to 12 months after you submit updated documentation confirming the continued strength and genuineness of your relationship since the grant of the 309 visa. This may include financial, household, social, and commitment-related evidence. Timely and thorough submission of this information helps ensure a smoother assessment and may reduce overall processing time.

FAQs About 100 Permanent Partner Visa

You may become eligible to apply for the 100 visa approximately two years after submitting your initial 309 visa application, not from the date it was granted. This is provided your relationship is still ongoing and genuine. Around this time, the Department of Home Affairs may invite you to submit additional documentation to assess your eligibility for permanent residency under the 100 visa.

No, you do not need to be in Australia when the 100 visa is being processed. The Subclass 100 visa is the permanent residency stage of the offshore partner visa pathway, and it is assessed while you are outside of Australia. However, if you’re already in Australia, you may remain while your application is under consideration, provided you hold a valid visa that allows you to do so.

Yes. Life events such as getting married, having children together, or purchasing joint assets (like property) can significantly strengthen your application. These events serve as strong indicators of an ongoing, committed relationship and help demonstrate to the Department that your partnership is continuing in a genuine and stable manner. Supporting documents like birth certificates, marriage certificates, or joint ownership agreements are important pieces of evidence.

No, a new application is not required. When you were granted the 309 visa, you were also considered for the 100 visa in the long term. However, the Department requires updated documentation to assess the development and continuation of your relationship since the initial application. This may include new joint financial records, shared household bills, photos, statutory declarations, and correspondence showing your ongoing commitment.

There are no formal travel restrictions while the 100 visa is being processed. You are free to travel internationally. However, you should maintain Australia as your primary place of residence, as this reinforces your intent to live permanently with your partner in Australia. Be mindful of communication from the Department during this time and ensure you are contactable for any requests for additional information.

To support your 100 visa application, you must provide updated, detailed evidence showing that your relationship is ongoing and genuine. This includes documentation across the four key areas assessed by the Department:

  • Financial aspects: Joint bank accounts, shared expenses, loans, or property ownership.

  • Household arrangements: Utility bills, rental agreements, or evidence of cohabitation.

  • Social context: Photos together, joint invitations, travel history, or statements from friends and family.

  • Commitment to each other: Future plans, ongoing communication, wills, or legal declarations.
    Providing consistent and well-documented evidence in these areas will help ensure your application is processed smoothly and without unnecessary delay.
