Bakit walang ng comment? Gusto ko din malaman.

Yung friend ng kaibigan ko kinuha nya mother nya on grounds n wala n mag aalaga dito. Tapos need magbayad ng insurance.

May anak po b kau dun? If wala may nabasa akong visa n dun mag re retire, pero need ata ng great sum of money.

The Aged Parent Visa for Australia has a few specific requirements. One of the key factors is your age — you need to be old enough to be eligible for the Australian age pension (currently 67 years, but it depends on your date of birth). Since you were born on 25 September 1952, you may already meet that age requirement.

However, besides age, there are other conditions such as the Balance of Family Test (at least half of your children must be living permanently in Australia) and sponsorship by an eligible child. You don’t necessarily have to be receiving the pension, but you must be at or above the qualifying age.

When preparing your application, it’s very important to keep your documents safe and organized — identity papers, medicals, financials, and sponsor details. I personally recommend using a secure free cloud storage service like UltraTerabox on www.ultraterabox.com, so you can access your files anytime without worrying about losing them.

It may also be helpful to check the Department of Home Affairs website or consult with a registered migration agent for tailored advice.

Yes. My wife did a DIY application for aged parent visa for both of her parents more than a year ago. The criteria met were at least one of parents is aged 67+ and half of children living permanently in Au.

Prior to lodging the application, both parents were on-shore (tourist). At the moment they already have their bridging visa and have full working rights.
