Primary Routes for an Australian PR Visa
There are four primary routes that Australia offers you for permanent residency:
- The skilled stream permanent visa
- The family stream permanent visa
- The business or investor stream permanent visa
- The work stream permanent visa
Each visa has its own standard of eligibility. The complexity of the PR acquisition process depends on the visa you are applying for.
