In this video, I talk about how our parents can get permanent residency and stay with us in Australia. I talk about 4-5 different visa subclasses through which our parents can move here and actually talk about the cost, process, and requirements for all these visa subclasses.
I talk about these visa subclasses:
A/ Contributory Parent Visa (Subclass 143)
Permanent visa with faster processing (3–6 years).
High application fee (around AUD 50,000+ per parent).
You must be settled in Australia and meet the Balance of Family Test:
At least half of your parents’ children live in Australia as PRs or citizens, or more children live in Australia than in any other country.

B/ Non-Contributory Parent Visa (Subclass 103)
Much cheaper, but very long processing times (can be 30+ years).
Same Balance of Family Test applies.
Usually not recommended due to the wait time.

C/ Sponsored Parent (Temporary) Visa (Subclass 870)
Allows parents to stay for 3 or 5 years (renewable up to 10 years total).
You (the child) must be an approved sponsor.
Doesn't lead to PR, but faster processing.
Fee: Around AUD 5,000 (3 years) or AUD 10,000 (5 years).

D/ Visitor Visa (Subclass 600 – Sponsored Family Stream)
For short stays (up to 12 months).
You can sponsor them as a PR.
May require a security bond (to make sure they return).
Ideal for temporary visits like holidays or special occasions.

Key Requirements Across All Visa Subclasses
Health & character checks.

No outstanding debts to the Australian Government.

Proof of relationship (birth certificate, etc.).

May need to show financial capacity (especially for temporary visas).

WHO AM I?

My name is Anshul Sethi, and I moved to Australia from Delhi in 2022 as an international student for my bachelor's degree.

Like you, I started with no connections, family, or financial support while facing the pressure of paying my own university fees in Australia. Through determination and consistency, I balanced studies, part-time work, connection-building, partying, and playing professional cricket - yes, I am a professional cricketer!

Now, at 22, working for a South Australian Government organisation, I want to share my experience and the strategies that helped me secure multiple roles without applying or interviewing.

If you're considering studying and working abroad, and want a step-by-step guide to thrive in Australia - you're in the right place.
