Can a third country national (not a permanent resident of Australia) apply for an immigrant visa in Australia?
In some cases. First, that person must show that they have permission from the Australian Department of Immigration to remain in Australia for 6 months or longer. Depending on the immigrant visa category involved, it is possible that we would accept that person’s immigrant visa application. In general, however, the person must have some ties to Australia; that is, some reason for being here beyond applying for the visa.
