You can still be married to another person. Its not you getting the visa, nor are you sponsoring it. Its the Thai national that is applying for the visa. -

From their website , seem to have no experience in what is required for a visa to Australia for a Thai National. From your post history, nor do you. -
Visa for Thai wife to Australia
PhanomR replied to Lee82's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
You would be better off not getting married (at this point in time) and applying now for a Subclass 300 Prospective Marriage visa. Even if you get married in Feb you can change it to a partner visa. But to answer your questions 1. Subclass 309 Partner (Provisional) visa 2. Yes, but you will need more then this. 3. Do it yourself, unless your hopeless at following simple written instructions or your/partners situation is complex. 4. Not relevant for a Partner visa, but full time employment doesn't hurt. -
2 years or 3 years doesn't make much difference really, its still a hurdle you will have to overcome. So think about how you are going to address it and make sure you are across your timelines and the information you have provided in the past is consistent. Success for a visa will depend on a number of other factors also, which you haven't given any details on.

For Centrelink purposes you are considered to be a member of a couple if you and your partner are living together, or usually live together, and are: married; or in a registered relationship; or in a de facto relationship A member of a couple is determined by circumstances including: financial aspects of the relationship nature of the household social aspects of the relationship any sexual relationship nature of the people's commitment to each other.

You will all need to do a DPD, your daughter doesn't need to be vaccinated as she is under 12. Your wife will need the Thailand international COVID-19 certificate of vaccination, issued by the Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health of Thailand. This site explains the steps. https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/covid19/vaccinated-travellers for both types of entry.

Not going to happen, it doesn't and never has worked like that. The age difference, lack of time together in person, her lack of reason to return (no money/assets). He needs to put in a few more trips first, gather evidence of relationship and supporting her for a period longer than the visa plus some. If he hasn't looked into it himself, wish him luck and redraw, stupid people don't like to be told they are stupid. -
Oz citizen wanting to take partner to NZ.
PhanomR replied to DrJack54's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
Yes I read your first post, hence the reason I asked you to define partner. As if she was your wife or legal partner it makes things easier. I take it this is her first trip to NZ, so it will be treated the same as a first tourist visa to Australia was treated, with the exception that your not a citizen of NZ, plus the complexity of how does she prove your travelling with her when you don't need a visa! You not being a NZ citizen plays a bigger part then you may think, as legal partners of citizens are given special consideration in issuing visas. As I said if you evidence your claims well, you shouldn't have a problem and the fact she has complied with visas to Australia in the past will be looked on favourably. -

So she is your girlfriend. De facto is a legal term in regards to a relationship in Australia and NZ. Thailand doesn't legally recognise de facto relationships, so under the law of the country that she is a citizen and resides, she is your girlfriend. It may seem I am being flippant, but it makes a very big difference in a legal sense and that's what your are being judged on. Now just because Thailand doesn't recognise de facto relationships, that doesn't mean NZ won't recognise your in one, but you will have to prove it to the NZ requirements which are How long you have been together; (3 years is the requirement in NZ) Whether you share a residence (i.e. do you share a bedroom together); Whether a sexual relationship exists between you; Arrangements surrounding your financial affairs (e.g. are you financially dependent on each other; do you share bank accounts etc.); Ownership, use, and acquisition of any property (assets or liabilities); Whether you have a mutual commitment to a shared life together; The care and support of any children; (even if not biologically yours) Who performs various household duties; How the public views your relationship (e.g. do your friends and family see you as a couple?) She will have to apply for a normal Visitor Visa from Thailand, unless she has a very good job and money she won't get it on her own accord . So she will have to show that she is traveling with you, her relationship to you (if claiming its a de facto see above). that she has the funds to support her stay and that she a reason to leave NZ at the end of the trip. To increase the chances of getting the visa you will need to be able to evidence the above in detail, not just claim its so. Supply the right evidence and the visa will be easy to get. -

Define what you mean by partner. Depends on the purpose for the side trip.
