How the subclass 884/864 ContributoryAged Parent visas work

There are two stages to the contributory aged parent visa – the subclass 884 (temporary) stage and the subclass 864 (permanent) stage.

Stage 1: Temporary contributory aged parent visa (subclass 884) - Before applying for the subclass 864 permanent contributory parent visa, parents must apply for the temporary contributory parent visa (subclass 884). The applicant must be in Australia at time of application.

Stage 2: Permanent contributory aged parent visa (subclass 864) - Once a parent is granted the subclass 884 visa, they may be eligible to apply for the Permanent Contributory Aged Parent Visa (subclass 864). The applicant must be in Australia when they apply for this visa and as the name suggests, obtaining the visa grants the applicant to stay in Australia permanently.

AML is here to guide you along your journey at whatever stage you’re at. To ensure you have the best chance of success, reach out to us for a consultation.

未來的簽證途徑

Once the subclass 864 visa is granted, the visa holder will become an Australian Permanent resident. You can either stay as a Permanent resident or apply for Australian citizenship if you are eligible.

If you decide to stay as a permanent resident, remember to apply for a Resident Return Visa (subclass 155) every 5 years to travel internationally.

To become an Australian citizen is a choice, however it does come with some benefits such as access to Australian public sector employment and avoiding visa cancellations. More benefits include:

  • 海外領事服務與支援
  • 持澳洲護照可免簽證前往 100 多個國家
  • 獲得澳大利亞政府工作 - 沒有與簽證取消有關的問題

  • $4,765 must be paid at the time of lodgement, and

Visa processing times

As we guide you through the process, the Australian Migration Lawyers team will keep you updated on the expected timeframe of the Department of Home Affairs (as they can change). At this point in time, both subclass 884 and subclass 864 visa applications may take at least 12 years to process.  The long processing time is due to the demand for this visa being greater than the number of places available each year. The processing times will vary depending on the completeness and complexity of each case. Applications will take longer if you do not fill in your application correctly, include all required or outstanding documents, or your information takes a long time to verify. 

There are two main stages in assessing subclass 884/864 visa applications. The first is when the the Department will check your eligibility and either add the application to the queue or refuse it. The second stage comes if the application is added to the queue, the Department will continue assessing the application and when a place becomes available and makes a decision.

考慮

Please note that obtaining a Parent visa grant is not guaranteed, as the Department of Home Affairs has discretion to either grant or refuse visas. We remain dedicated to providing you with ongoing support and guidance throughout the process.

Here at AML, we strive to ensure we are accessible to our clients when they need. We do this a few ways including:

  • Most  our initial consultations are free and recurring services will incur a fixed-fee that we will discuss with you
  • We provide online consultations so you can speak with us from anywhere in Australia

常見問題

Read our most commonly asked questions about the subclass 884/864 Contributory Aged Parent visas.

我什麼時候可以獲得醫療保險?

Subclass 884 visa holders are not eligible for Medicare as subclass 884 is a temporary parent visa. If you hold a subclass 864 visa, you will become an Australian permanent resident and thus be able to access Medicare.

Moreover, if you have applied for subclass 864 and previously held a temporary contributory visa (subclass 173/884), you may be eligible to enroll in Medicare.  If you are unsure whether you are entitled to Medicare, we recommend you contacting Medicare to verify your eligibility. Also, our legal team is here to provide any information and support you need.

How can I know when my subclass 884 visa expires? Can I reapply this visa subclass?

Subclass 884 visa is a temporary visa that allows you to stay in Australia for 2 years. The visa period starts on the date your visa is granted. You cannot stay in Australia longer by extending or reapplying for this visa.

There are many other parent visa options available to help you stay longer in Australia. Our lawyers can help to clear your concern and give the best advice for your circumstance.

What is the difference between subclass 143 and subclass 864?

Although subclass 143 and subclass 864 are both permanent Parent visas, subclass 864 visa can only be applied by parents who reach Australian pension age (at least 67 years of age) and must be onshore at the time of lodging application.

Can I bring my family member to Australia with a subclass 884/864 visa?

Yes, you can. Subclass 884/864 allows the main applicant to bring their spouse, de facto partner, main applicant’s child, or partner’s child to Australia by including them in the application. However, they also have to meet health and character requirements set out by the Department.

I am on my visitor visa. If I apply for subclass 864 permanent parent visa, how can I stay lawfully in Australia?

If your current visa does not have ‘No further stay’ condition, you can apply for a subclass 864 Contributory Aged Parent (permanent) visa and will be granted a bridging visa while waiting for the outcome. If you are unsure about your current visa conditions, please contact us to get a detailed explanation.
