A temporary pathway for eligible parents before a possible permanent contributory parent visa journey.
The Contributory Parent Temporary Visa Subclass 173 lets a parent of a settled Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen stay temporarily in Australia.
Who this visa may suit
This pathway may suit parents who want a temporary contributory visa route and may later consider moving toward a permanent contributory parent visa.
Subclass 173 is temporary. Families should understand its duration, limits, and how it may fit into broader parent visa planning.
The Balance of Family test applies to Subclass 173, so applicants should review family distribution and evidence early.
Visawizer helps families assess whether Subclass 173 fits their goals and organise the evidence required for a contributory parent pathway.

I had an amazing experience working with Visawizer for my wife's visa application. Although having previous history of rejections Mr. Ankur assured us the partner will be a success since it was applied with a lot of care and taking small details into consideration. I am really thankful to Ankur for the endless support for the success and my lovely wife will be joining me soon from Fiji. A 100% recommended for anyone trying for visa no matter how complicated it is Visawizer will always find a way towards success. Thank you.
