The Adoption Visa (Subclass 102) allows children adopted outside Australia to live permanently with their adoptive parents. This visa is for children under 18 who are adopted or in the process of adoption by an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen. The child must be outside Australia when applying and meet health and character requirements. The adoption must be legally recognised under Australian or international laws, such as the Hague Convention. Applicants must provide proper documentation, including adoption papers, identity proof, and sponsorship details. Once granted, the visa offers permanent residency, allowing the child to live, study, and access healthcare in Australia, with a future pathway to citizenship.
