Permanent Residency Visa for Australia

It is indeed an immigrant’s delight to obtain a permanent visa to Australia, a place that has been voted by many as one of the most desired destinations for settling down. Australia is a great place that offers a carefree lifestyle and promising employment opportunities to people from across the globe.

A permanent Australian visa holder is not entitled for an Australian citizenship by default. A certain waiting period is required for becoming a citizen. However, permanent residents enjoy almost all the privilegesthat natural citizens of Australia do. An Australia passport is also not something which can be obtained right away by a permanent visa holder.

There are various visa categories by means of which, one can obtain a permanent residency there. These include:

 

Investor visa (subclass 891)

Further to meeting some other eligibility requirements, this is the next stage for those already holding an Investor Provisional (subclass 162) visa. Besides meeting certain business-based requirements, the applicant needs to have practical and genuine commitment to continue his/her investment activity in Australia

 

Business Owner visa (subclass 890)

For all those who have been successfully running their business in Australia from the past two years, this visa allows a permanent stay in Australia. Certain business based conditions, however, need to be met by the aspirant.

 

Business Talent (Permanent) visa (subclass 132)

This visa allows you to establish a new or develop an existing business in Australia under one of the two main categories (Significant Business History stream or Venture Capital Entrepreneur stream). You might be able to get this visa if you are nominated by a state or territory government agency and are invited to apply by the minister.
