Fiancé(e) Migration
The Fiancé(e) visa, or
prospective marriage visa, is a temporary visa that is granted on
the condition that you and your partner will marry in
Australia within 9
months of
your visa being granted.
Once married, your visa can be transferred into a temporary
spouse visa.
Applicants for the
Fiancé(e) visa do not have to be living with their
partner or prove that they have been together for 12 months,
so this visa may be a good option for couples who lack the
required relationship evidence for a spouse visa.
