Major Update: Partner Visa Streamlined to One Stage from July 2025(伴侣签证自2025年7月起简化为单一阶段申请)

Starting July 1, 2025, Australia’s Department of Home Affairs has simplified the Partner Visa process, transitioning from a complex two-stage system to a streamlined single-stage application. This is a major shift aimed at reducing wait times, lowering the administrative burden, and helping couples reunite faster.

At New Path Visa Service, we’re here to help you understand what this means—and how you can benefit from the change.

自2025年7月1日起，澳大利亚内政部正式实施改革：伴侣签证将不再采用繁琐的两阶段申请制度，而改为一次性申请流程。这一重大调整旨在缩短等待时间、减轻申请人负担，并帮助伴侣尽快团聚。

在 New Path Visa Service 新途签证服务，我们将为您详细解析这项新政策的变化与优势。

📌 What Has Changed?政策变化详解

🧾 Previous System: Two-Stage Application

Under the old system, partner visa applicants had to go through:

1. Temporary Partner Visa (Subclass 820 for onshore / 309 for offshore)

2. After 2 years, apply for the Permanent Partner Visa (Subclass 801 or 100)

This meant two separate assessments, more paperwork, and longer wait times—sometimes over 3 years before getting permanent residency.

🧾 旧政策：两阶段申请流程

过去，申请澳洲伴侣签证需要经过两个阶段：

1. 临时伴侣签证（境内820类 / 境外309类）

2. 等待约两年后，才能申请永久伴侣签证（境内801类 / 境外100类）

这一流程意味着要提交两次申请，准备大量重复材料，并等待数年才能获得永久居留。

✅ New System: One Combined Application 新政策：单一阶段一次性评估

Now, applicants can lodge a single application that will be assessed for both the temporary and permanent visas at once—based on the strength and length of the relationship at the time of application.

This change applies to both:

• Onshore Partner Visas (Subclass 820/801)

• Offshore Partner Visas (Subclass 309/100)

根据最新政策，申请人只需提交一次联合申请，将同时评估临时与永久签证资格。

适用于以下类别：

• 境内伴侣签证（820/801）

• 境外伴侣签证（309/100）

💡 Key Benefits for Applicants 新政策优势

✔ Faster processing times — Especially for couples with long-standing relationships or strong evidence

✔ Fewer documents — No more duplicating information or resubmitting the same evidence years later

✔ More certainty — Applicants may be granted permanent residency immediately after the initial assessment

✔ Quicker access to work rights, Medicare, and travel freedom

✔ 审理时间大幅缩短 — 特别适用于已同居两年以上的伴侣

✔ 提交材料减少 — 无需在两年后重复提交关系证明

✔ 申请更有确定性 — 有可能在首次申请中直接获得永久居留

✔ 更早获得工作权利、Medicare医保和自由出入境权利

👀 Who Benefits Most?  哪类申请人受益最大？

• Couples who have lived together for 2+ years

• Applicants with children or financial interdependence

• Long-distance couples with strong communication records and visit history

Even newer relationships can benefit—but solid documentation is still essential.

• 共同生活超过两年的合法伴侣

• 有共同子女或经济往来的夫妻/伴侣

• 异地恋伴侣但有稳定沟通、探访记录和未来计划

即使是交往时间较短的伴侣，也可以申请，但关系证据必须充分、真实、持续。

🧭 What You Still Need to Prepare 申请人仍需准备的材料

Although the process is simplified, the requirements remain strict.

You'll still need:

📂 Proof of a genuine and ongoing relationship

💬 Evidence of shared life (finances, communication, travel, living arrangements)

📅 Clear timeline of your relationship development

📝 Character checks, health checks, and legal declarations

虽然流程简化了，但移民局对关系真实性的审查仍非常严格：

📂 真实伴侣关系的证明材料

💬 共同生活、共同财务、旅行记录、照片、对话记录

📅 明确的关系发展时间线与未来计划

📝 品格审查、体检及法律声明
