Sponsored Parent Temporary Visa

The Sponsored Parent Temporary Visa provides parents with pathway to temporarily

reunite with their children in Australia. This visa allows the parent of an Australian

Citizen and Australian Permanent Resident to visit Australia for 3 to 5 years. To

apply, the applicant (parent) must either be the biological, legal (including adoptive)
