Sponsorship Requirements for Subclass 114

Requirements to be met by the Sponsor for Visa 114

The requirements that the sponsor must meet at the time of application for the visa for which the sponsored person has applied are that the sponsor must be the child of the applicant; is an Australian citizen or an Australian Permanent Resident or an Eligible New Zealand citizen; and is settled and usually resident in Australia.

Assessment of Settled at the time of Application for Subclass 114

Assessment of settled at time of visa application can be considered met unless there are significant extended periods of absence prior to making the visa application (for example, the sponsor has been absent from Australia for two years immediately prior to the date of application, and is outside Australia at the time of application).

Assessment of Settled at the time of Decision for 114 Visa

At time of decision, there are three categories within which a sponsor can meet the ‘settled’ requirement:

Category 1: If the sponsor has been lawfully resident in Australia for two years, (as at time of visa application) (discounting short trips outside Australia for up to four months), this is generally considered to be a ‘reasonable period’. A sponsor could come within this category even if they are outside Australia at the time the visa application is made.

Category 2: If the sponsor is currently in Australia but has been outside Australia for more than four months in the two-year period immediately preceding the date the visa application was made, they must provide some documentary evidence showing that they are currently settled in Australia.

Category 3: If the sponsor is not in Australia, and has not been in Australia for the full two years preceding the application (discounting short trips to Australia under four months), they must provide some documentary evidence as to the reason for the absence and establish that they meet the ‘settled’ requirement.

Assessment of Usually Resident in Australia for Visa Subclass 114

The evidence for being usually resident somewhere may be seen in a variety of factors, including; maintaining a home in a particular place, going to work there, owning property, business or other interests there, having family and other ties in the place. Absence from a place at a particular time does not automatically mean it is not a person’s usual residence, as the person may have already established usual residence there in circumstances where their absence is still consistent with having usual residence in that place.
