About Parent Visas to Australia

What are the requirements for a parent visa?
To
be eligible for Parent Migration, you must be the parent of
an Australian citizen, permanent resident or eligible New
Zealand citizen. You must also pass the ‘balance
of family’ test, which specifies that at least
half of your children must live permanently in Australia;
or you must have more children living permanently in Australia
than in any other single country.
You must be sponsored by your child, or
another adult, who has been settled in Australia as a citizen
or permanent resident for at least 2 years. Your sponsor must
provide a legal undertaking to support you during your first
two years in Australia.
You must also satisfy health and character requirements
for permanent entry to Australia.
