Australian Prospective Marriage Visa
The prospective marriage visa is intended for couples who are engaged to be married, when one them is an Australian citizen or permanent resident.
There are two different parts to the application process – the sponsorship and the visa application. The sponsor is the Australian citizen or permanent resident involved in the relationship.
