Migration Services

Reunite with your partner in Australia through the partner visa pathway.

Overview

What is Subclass 309 / 100, 820 / 801?

Partner visas provide a two-stage pathway to permanent residency in Australia for spouses and de facto partners of Australian citizens, permanent residents, and eligible New Zealand citizens. The offshore pathway (Subclass 309/100) is for applicants outside Australia, while the onshore pathway (Subclass 820/801) is for those already in Australia. Both pathways involve an initial temporary stage followed by a permanent stage after approximately two years. GO Access Law provides compassionate, thorough support throughout both stages.

Best for:Spouses and de facto partners (including same-sex partners) of Australian citizens, permanent residents, or eligible New Zealand citizens seeking to live together in Australia.
How We Work

Our Process

A clear, structured approach that keeps you informed at every step.

01

Relationship Assessment

We assess the nature, duration, and evidence of your relationship to identify the most appropriate pathway and flag any potential issues early.

02

Evidence Compilation

We guide you through compiling the comprehensive body of evidence required to demonstrate your genuine and continuing relationship across the four categories: financial, household, social, and commitment.

03

Stage 1 Application

Your temporary partner visa application (309 or 820) is prepared and lodged with all supporting documentation for the sponsor, the applicant, and any dependent children.

04

Processing Support

We manage all correspondence with the department during the processing period, including responding to requests for further information or interviews.
