I intend apply PR to Australia under subclass 139. In 3/2005 my brother-in law had already assured his sister (1 adult) under subclass 139 , so it means that now he is allowed to assures 1 adult only. Because one person only assures 2 adults in one time. So can I excluding my spouse from my application as I can't find out any one who willing to be co-assurer with my brother-in law? What sort of document should I include in application to convince DIMIA about excluding my spouse? Can I explain to DIMIA that my spouse has to stay at my home country to takecare his parrents (or something like that) then will join me later or should I tell them the truth that I can't find out the co-assurer?
i am applying for spouse visa.after completion of procedure can i get permanent residence visa or 1st i will get temporary visa and later it will become permanent? if yes can you please tell me the duration for the same?
i am very much eager to know,whether english ability and qualification is necessary for spouse visa.
My employer has offered me a job in perth and they have a vacant 4 year business visa (457). I have been going out with my partner for almost five years now and we have stayed together for the last 18 months, however the mortgage, bills etc are all in my name. We know a judge, who is a family friend and he is willing to write a statement declaring that he knows myself and partner have been together and co-habiting for over 12 months. Would this be sufficient to prove we are in a de-facto relationship?
i am a british citizen and reside in the u.k .my wife is an australian citizen. we have children and property in both countries and i want to take up residency in australia .how does that affect my pension in the u.k .can i be a resident of both countries? how long do i need to spend in each country per year to retain dual residency?
My partner is Australian and i am Zimbabwean living in the UK on an ancestral visa. We have been together for over a year and are expecting a child together in July. We would like to go to Australia to live when the baby is old enough to fly. Would my partner have to sponser our child as well as me or would the baby automatically be aloud to go to Australia. Am i liable for a defacto visa? and if so is there any special preferences as we share a child together?
I am an Australian citizen who is on a working holiday in the U.K for 2 years. I am planning to marry my British fiance and we would like to settle back in Australia when it is time for me to go home. Because I am working in the U.K, I am worried I won't be considered a good sponsor for my husband as I will not have had employment in Australia for 2 years. I am also pregnant and I am worried that they will not accept my husband and I will have to raise our child without the financial and emotional support of my husband being in Australia with me. We are already saving our money so that we will have financial security until we can both secure work in Australia. Do you think we will have difficulty with getting his visa approved?

	On the face of it - you should be able to apply for a spouse permit. Main areas a Departmental officer would not grant you residence are; 1/ a non genuine marriage (i.e. contrived for the purpose of gaining residdence in NZ) 2/ Health requirement 3/ Character requirement. Good Luck.

	Hi Anon, Congratulations on number 3 - Two is a fair old handful for me. Providing you have been living in a de-facto"" marriage relationship for 12 months prior to an application being lodged you will qualify to be a family. The difficulty here is usually ""proving"" the living together."
Im a single mother with two children and think I have enough points to emmigrate to Australia from UK. I have never been married but my ex partner with whom I have my children is very much against me moving - does he have any legal rights to keep me in UK or can I move to australia without his permission. Thanks for your time k
	Your ex-partner does have rights. These are Hague Convention"" speciifed. Ususally what is required is either a signed agreement from him to take the kids - or an order from a court - giving authority to ""remove the children from the jurisdiction of the court"". A tricky situation and you REALLY need an experienced agent on your side. Call 0845 601 7810 "

	Rule 1/ Never ever lie to DIMIA - You sound like you need some help and pointing in the right direction to get this correct first time round. Anyone can assure. Sometimes you need multiple people to club together to assure. Also - there is a bit of pressure on you as the 139 will change 1/7/2006 whereby you have to spend time in the State where your sponsor lives.
i am applying for spouse visa.after completion of procedure can i get permanent residence visa or 1st i will get temporary visa and later it will become permanent? if yes can you please tell me the duration for the same?
	The visa sub class you will get will depend upon how long you have been married (or de facto) . subclass 309 or 100 are the technical names. DIMIA will decide which one applies to you. Factors such as 5 years marriage or 2 years with a child lead to the more beneficial permanent residence"" from day one. If you do not have this you will be a ""spouse temporary"" for the first 2 years. If you are still together as a couple after this period you will be granted ""permanent residence"" of Australia. This is an area that often needs input form a good reliable agent - call 0845 601 7810. "
i am very much eager to know,whether english ability and qualification is necessary for spouse visa.
	No. It is not essential.
My employer has offered me a job in perth and they have a vacant 4 year business visa (457). I have been going out with my partner for almost five years now and we have stayed together for the last 18 months, however the mortgage, bills etc are all in my name. We know a judge, who is a family friend and he is willing to write a statement declaring that he knows myself and partner have been together and co-habiting for over 12 months. Would this be sufficient to prove we are in a de-facto relationship?
	No - probably not. Compiling evidence for a defacto relationship (if one indeed does exist) is best handled by a Registered Migration Agent experineced in this field. Call Owen Small or Richard Gregan on 0845 601 7810
i am a british citizen and reside in the u.k .my wife is an australian citizen. we have children and property in both countries and i want to take up residency in australia .how does that affect my pension in the u.k .can i be a resident of both countries? how long do i need to spend in each country per year to retain dual residency?
	Dual citizenship is not predicated by how much time you spend in each country. UK citizens can recieve a UK pension in Australia. If it is a State pension it is not index linked. i.e. the amount you recieve when you leave the Uk will not alter.

Am i liable for a defacto visa? and if so is there any special preferences as we share a child together?
	Firstly - congratulations on your imminent arrival. You will need to apply for a spouse via (either as a de-facto spouse or as a married person) The child will be eligible for citizenship by descent. There are complicating areas of these types of visa application that you may wish to run by one of the OE Consultants.
