So, once you’ve settled in Australia with your new job, your happy PR status, and maybe a young family, what’s the next question? Oh, gosh, what about Mum?!! Call Y-Axis Middle East (+971-0-42-48-3900) if you’ve got visa questions!
The truth is, once you've successfully migrated to Australia, that's often only half the battle. You need to focus on work now and establishing new roots, but you also know your parents want to visit. For you, maybe a temporary or visitor's visa is quite enough! Or, if you're like most dutiful kids, you want a better long-term solution - and that's the Parent Visa.
Y-Axis Middle East, part of the world’s largest B2C immigration and visa consultancy, offers you advisory services in response to the Australian government’s announcement that it will almost double the parent and skilled visa allocations in the country. Over $36 million will be invested to increase staffing and reduce the processing times of the visas, according to the recent changes to the program.

The immigration consulting company offers personalized consulting packages based on this news, which promises both more permanent residencies and a renewed focus on immigrants’ desires to keep their families together when possible - an interest Y-Axis champions. The number of skilled visas is being increased from 79,000 to 142,400, while parent visas have been lifted from 4500 to 8,500 allocations. Australia's immigration department has been given $576 million to process visas and also to support refugees through offshore processing facilities.
Until very recently, parents of Australian citizens and permanent residents were not automatically classified as immediate family - a fact which often frustrated families’ attempts to reunite in Australia either temporarily or in the long term. Almost half of all Australians are either born abroad or have at least one parent who was. While temporary and visitor visas are also an option, the Parent Visa enables parents of children who are citizens or permanent residents to be sponsored for permanent residence in Australia. The country also offers the subclass 870 visa temporary visa that allows parents to visit Australia for up to five years without leaving.
Y-Axis Middle East works with its Australian office team of registered agents to help prospective immigrants as well as those of you who have already settled and wish to bring over their extended family. The company offers you assistance tailored to your individual needs, budget, and work/family situation.
While Australia is suffering a labor shortage in the wake of the pandemic and the consequent immigration slowdown, more federal and provincial programs have opened up and relaxed some of their requirements for skilled workers seeking employment and residency. However, Y-Axis Middle East has long advised its clients that subsequent steps regarding family integration can be difficult - time-consuming, and financially draining. An increase in Parent Visa allocations is welcome news for all parties.
Australia uses a points-based system to assess a person’s qualifications for migrating to Australia. If you're a local applicant in the initial stages of your Australian journey and need to improve your English proficiency, you can use Y-Axis’ accredited in-house IELTS testing center in Dubai.
But always keep your parents in mind - whatever stage you're at. Why? Because if you don't, they will remind you! So be prepared with your answers!
