Subclass 835 Remaining Relative Visa

The subclass 835 Remaining Relative visa allows someone already in Australia, who is not a permanent resident and whose only near relatives are living in Australia, to live permanently in Australia.

To apply, applicants must hold a visa which allows them to apply for another visa in Australia.

Once their application is lodged the applicant will be granted a bridging visa to remain in Australia while their application is processed.
