If you currently have parents living overseas who you wish to bring to Australia, you may want to look into the Aged Parent visa (subclass 804).

This visa will allow your aged parents to remain in Australia permanently, as long as you are currently living in Australia as a citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen who is settled in Australia.

At Registered Migration Australia we will do everything we can to help reunite you with your parents so they can enjoy the Australian lifestyle with you.

The parent must pass the "balance of family" test. Balance of family test requires that you have more children permanently settled in Australia than any other single overseas country. The parent is sponsored by their child who must be an Australian citizen, Australian permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen.


  • There is a substantial wait for this type of visa
  • The waiting period can be shorter for the Contributory Aged Parent visa (subclass 864) where the applicant, or their sponsor, pay a higher application fee and submit an ‘assurance of support’ bond.
