3 Reasons Why This Mother’s Day Is the Right Time to Act

Each year, Mother’s Day reminds us of how much love, care, and connection a mother brings into our lives. But for many living in Australia while their mothers remain overseas—especially in the Philippines—that reminder can carry a quiet ache. 

If you've been waiting for the right time to start your mom’s visa process, this is it. Mother’s Day isn’t just a day to give thanks—it’s the perfect time to take action. Here's why: 

1. Every Year Apart Is a Year You Can’t Get Back 

There are certain moments no video call can replace: a shared meal, an embrace, the warmth of simply being nearby. Every Mother’s Day spent apart is a memory missed—one that could have been made real. 

Acting now opens the door for future celebrations in person. With visa pathways like the Visitor Visa (Subclass 600) or Sponsored Parent Visa (Subclass 870), you can bring your mom closer sooner—for Mother’s Day or the milestones that follow. 

2. Visa Processing Takes Time—Starting Now Makes All the Difference 

Migration is a journey that doesn’t happen overnight. Depending on the visa, it can take weeks to months to process applications—especially for permanent options like: 

• Subclass 143 – Contributory Parent Visa (Permanent residency) 

• Subclass 173 – Temporary Contributory Parent Visa (2-year stay leading to 143) 

• Subclass 804 – Aged Parent Visa (for those already in Australia) 

Starting during the Mother's Day season gives you a head start, while Legacy Migration’s expert support ensures the process moves smoothly and efficiently.
