Brief overview of spouse/interdependancy visa classes:
Fiancé visas.
Applications for these is always made offshore and allow a fiancé
to come to Australia for a period of nine months, in which to
marry their Australian citizen/permanent resident sponsor. After
marriage, an applicant will apply for a subclass 801 visa and
will generally have to wait two years in order to obtain permanency.
Offshore spouse visas.
Application is made at the same time for a Class UF, subclass
309 (temporary) spouse visa and a Class BC, subclass 100 (permanent)
spouse visa. The permanent application is not usually considered
until two years after the initial temporary application.
Onshore spouse visas.
Application is made at the same time for a Class UK, subclass
820 (temporary) spouse visa and a Class BS, subclass 801 (permanent)
spouse visa. Again, the permanent application is not usually considered
until two years after the initial temporary application.
