在6月21日澳洲國會公佈了有關入籍改革議案的詳細資料: 一般申請人需要在遞交申請時附帶相當於IELTS雅思全6的英語考試成績 (Competent English)。成績必需在申請前3年內考獲﹐而且不能用澳洲大學畢業證書等取代。 年齡在15歲或以下﹐60歲或以上﹐或是有傷殘的申請人可以豁免。 持有美國﹐加拿大﹐英國﹐新西蘭﹐或愛爾蘭的護照持有人亦可獲豁免。 申請人需要持有永久居留4年或以上﹐在申請前4年內不能累計離境超過365日。 現有的豁免條例會獲得保留 ﹐例如在持有永久居留簽證的情況下﹐和澳洲公民伴侶一同在海外生活﹐同時在澳洲有緊密關係(例如在澳洲擁有房產等)的申請人。 申請人需証明自己已經融入澳洲 (Integrated into the Australian Community)。澳洲入境部長將會有權力制定相關定義及所需文件。 入境部長將會重制入籍考試﹐會加入更多有關澳洲價值觀的問題﹐題材估計包括宗教自由﹐家庭暴力等等。 這個議案將會在澳洲議會辯論﹐并需要獲得通過才會生效。澳洲工黨(ALP)及綠黨 (The Greens)已經表明會反對議案﹐但理論上在表決時還是在機會通過。政府亦可能在國會辯論時在議案內作出調整﹐我們會再為大家提供進一步消息。

2017年7月1日起﹐伴侶簽證申請人將會被要求先提交澳洲藉或永居擔保人的擔保申請﹐當擔保申請被批准後﹐申請人才能提供伴侶申請！如果擔保人有嚴重犯罪記錄﹐又或者有家庭暴力的記錄﹐擔保申請將會被拒絕！這個政策代表申請人必須提早作準備﹐并且須在簽證過期前3個月左右先遞交擔保申請﹐再提供擔保人相關的無犯罪記錄証明書 (Police Clearance)等等﹐才有機會在澳洲境內及時遞交申請﹐延續和伴侶一起居住的時間。 這個政策呼應了澳洲政府一貫對伴侶簽證申請人人身安全的重視﹐亦確保申請人及其子女不會在等待簽證獲批的時間受到威脅。 另外伴侶簽證申請費將會由$6,865 上漲到 $7,000！ 如果以下其中一個情況適合形容您或您的親戚朋友﹐我們建議考慮盡快準備及在7月1日前提申請﹐以免受到影響: – 您的簽證快將到期﹐而您打算在澳洲境內申請伴侶簽證; – 您的澳洲伴侶曾經有犯罪記錄﹐并曾經在法庭被判刑﹐而您打算申請伴侶簽證; – 您有海外伴侶﹐打算為對方申請旅遊簽證﹐對方來到澳洲後在境內申請伴侶簽證。 如果您有任何問題﹐歡迎聯絡我們！
