The 309/100 Offshore Spousal Immigrant Visa is a category of spousal immigrant visa for Australian citizens, permanent residents or eligible New Zealand citizens to sponsor their spouse to settle in Australia. The visa must be applied for outside Australia and the applicant must be outside Australia at the time the visa is issued. Normally, the applicant will first be granted a 309 resident visa, and after a 2-year relationship examination period and meeting the relevant conditions will be granted a 100 permanent residence visa. * However, it is possible to obtain a 100 permanent residence visa directly under certain special circumstances, such as if the applicant has been married for more than 3 years at the time of application, if the couple has children, and if there are extreme factors such as domestic violence.
