Is a Australia Partner Visa Equivalent to Marriage?
Are these two concepts truly equivalent?
I’m 24 years old, and my girlfriend is 27.
We’ve been cohabiting for over two years now. I want to assist my girlfriend in her visa application process to migrate to Australia, but my parents are opposed to it.
They believe that I am too young to marry and that obtaining a visa is synonymous with marriage.
Isn’t a visa simply a means to allow the person I love to remain with me in Australia?
Moreover, isn’t marriage supposed to be officially registered?
What causes the confusion between these two terms in Australian migration discussions?
