PR Pathway for subclass 410 visa holders.
A Pathway to permanent residence for some retirement visa holders commenced on 17 November 2018, as part of the 2018-19 Budget.
This pathway provides options to long-term residents who have contributed to, and are well-established in the community.
The government has built the pathway by setting aside a portion of places from the permanent migration scheme for parents.
You may be eligible to apply for a pathway to permanent residence if, on 8 May 2018 you held a Retirement visa (subclass 410).
