This visa allows you to enter Australia and marry your intended spouse (fianc? (e)) within the visa's nine (9) month validity period. Your fianc? (e) must be an Australian citizen, an Australian permanent resident or an eligible New Zealand citizen. With this visa, you must enter Australia before you marry your fianc?(?), may leave and re- enter Australia as many times as you wish before your visa ceases (nine (9) months after visa grant), can work in Australia, can apply for a Spouse visa in Australia after you marry your fianc?(?), can study, but you will not have access to government funding and may use Australia's medical expenses and hospital care assistance scheme, Medicare, but only if you are in Australia and have already applied for a Spouse visa. Eligibility The main purpose of applying for this visa is to allow you to come to Australia and then marry your intended spouse and live as husband and wife. You must genuinely intend to marry your fianc? (e). You must also genuinely intend to live with your fianc? (e) as husband and wife. You must be sponsored by an eligible sponsor. An eligible sponsor is an Australian citizen or permanent resident, or an eligible New Zealand citizen, who undertakes sponsorship obligations. Usually, the sponsor is your partner and is over 18 years old. You must be able to legally marry according to Australian law. This means you must be aged 18 years or over. If you are aged 16 years or over but less than 18 years, you must have an Australian court order allowing you to marry your intended spouse or you must both be of marriageable age at time of the intended marriage. Your fianc? (e) in Australia can be aged under 18 years if they have an Australian court order allowing them to marry you. In these circumstances, their parent or guardian must be your sponsor and they must be an Australian citizen, a permanent resident or eligible New Zealand citizen aged 18 years or over. You must be of the opposite sex to your intended spouse. Same-sex couples are not eligible for this visa. You must have met (as adults) your intended spouse in person and know him or her personally. This must be the case even if it is an arranged marriage, you and your sponsor met as children and the marriage was arranged before you turned 18 years of age or you met on the internet (exchanging photographs is not evidence of having met in person). This information is of a general nature and should not be taken as authoritative legal advice for specific cases.
