What are your goals for a partner visa application

Applying for a partner visa is so much more than just a transaction. It’s about bringing loved ones together, it’s about your hopes and dreams and living them out together as a family. When starting your visa application, it’s important to understand why you want this to happen and what you’re hoping to achieve. Here’s why we believe understanding your goals is a vital first step in the visa application planning process.

Getting to know you

What are your reasons for bringing the family unit together? What would be the ideal outcome of your partner visa application? When do you want to achieve this by? These are all questions that we love to ask our clients! Knowing this information allows us to figure out the best visa and strategy to get the desired outcome for your family, within the timeframe you’re looking for.

This important step in the planning phase may mean you need to face some difficult decisions as you get to the core of the priorities for your family. But once everyone is on the same page, you can approach the preparation stage of your visa application in a clear and confident way.

Every application is different

This may be hard to believe, but no two partner visa applications are ever the same! In our years of experience, we have never been able to simply copy a visa application to another person. No matter how other friends or family members have approached their visa applications, we can guarantee that yours will be different.

That’s why it’s so important for everyone to be on the same page with what you are trying to achieve. Knowing your goals makes it easier to map out your application and prioritise the information and documentation that you will need to gather.

Bringing calm to the process

Did you know that not everything needs to be lodged with Department of Home Affairs at once? Many people stress about the need to gather and prepare everything for their visa application before lodgement. Knowing your visa application goals and your desired outcomes means that you can work to a list of priorities to get your partner visa application to a stage where it meets the legal requirements for lodgement. Once an immigration case officer has been assigned to your visa application, you can continue to action items and prepare supporting documentation.

Breaking down the steps in line with your goals means you can keep track of the big picture and make consistent progress through the preparation stage in a methodical and calm way.

Focus on the big picture

A visa application can be a long process. There is never a set time for a decision for a certain type of visa. It’s always different! During the application stage you may need to provide additional documentation, your situation may change and updates to the application may be required. Knowing your visa application goals allows you to focus on each task and know that completing it will take you one step closer to bringing your family together.

Bringing loved ones together can be a challenging process. But knowing your goals can help you remain focused and feel in control. At Home of Visas we are dedicated to understanding our clients and making sure that we give your visa application goals the very best chance of success.
