Offshore partner visa pathway

Partner Visa Subclass 309/100 guidance for couples applying from overseas

Support for spouses and de facto partners applying from outside Australia.

The Partner Visa 309/100 pathway allows the de facto partner or spouse of an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen to live in Australia. The 309 visa is provisional, and the 100 visa is the permanent stage of the offshore partner pathway.

Partner Visa 309/100

Who this visa may suit

For couples separated by distance or living overseas

This visa may suit couples where the applicant is outside Australia and the sponsoring partner is an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen.

Long-distance relationship evidence

Distance does not reduce the need for proof

Offshore partner applications often require careful evidence of communication, visits, financial support, shared future plans, relationship history, and commitment despite physical distance.

The sponsor’s role must be clearly documented
Approach

The sponsor’s role must be clearly documented

The sponsor must show eligibility, identity, relationship commitment, and support for the applicant. Sponsor documents should align with the applicant’s relationship evidence.

Offshore files need strong consistency

Missing communication records
Weak visit/travel evidence
Unclear relationship timeline
Limited social recognition proof
Poorly explained cultural or family context
Inconsistent names, dates, or addresses
Support

Support for couples across countries and timelines
