Begin the New Chapter: How Applying for a Parent Visa This Father’s Day Can Bring Your Family Closer

Father’s Day is a celebration of love, gratitude, and the bonds that make a family strong. For many Filipino families with loved ones in Australia, it can also be a reminder of the distance that keeps parents and children apart. This year, you have the opportunity to turn that sentiment into action by beginning the Parent Visa process — a step that can bring your family together for life’s most important moments. 

Why Father’s Day Is the Perfect Time to Apply 

Family milestones do not wait for the right time, but choosing the right moment to start your visa journey can make all the difference. Applying for a Parent Visa during Father’s Day is not just symbolic, it is a practical decision: 

• Emotional Significance – Starting the process now turns Father’s Day into a defining family milestone, marking the moment you took action toward reuniting. 

• Special Offer – Legacy Migration is offering a 10% discount on our professional fees for eligible Parent Visa applications lodged between 1 and 30 September 2025.

Practical Reasons to Begin Now 

The Parent Visa process can be complex, involving strict eligibility criteria, supporting documentation, and in some cases, long waiting times. By starting this Father’s Day, you can: 

• Beat Delays – Parent Visa queues can be lengthy. Early applications improve your chances of timely processing. 

• Plan Financially – The application can involve significant costs. Starting now allows you to prepare and budget over time.

Which Parent Visa Is Right for Your Family? 

Every family’s situation is unique. For example: 

• Subclass 143 – Contributory Parent Visa: Permanent residency with faster processing than non-contributory visas. 

• Subclass 173 – Temporary Contributory Parent Visa: A two-year visa allowing you to later transition to the Subclass 143. 

• Subclass 870 – Sponsored Parent (Temporary) Visa: Up to 10 years in Australia without permanent residency. 

• Subclass 804 – Aged Parent Visa: For parents who are old enough to receive the Australian pension, with longer wait times. 

• Subclass 600 – Visitor Visa (Tourist Stream): Short stays to visit children or grandchildren.
