Can I bring my partner on an Australian skilled visa?

Yes — partners and dependent children on most skilled visas (482, 189, 190, 491) generally have work rights, though the specific conditions depend on the primary visa subclass.

Key points

  • Partner work rights generally apply across the main skilled visa subclasses.
  • De facto partnerships are recognized under specific evidentiary requirements.
  • Dependent children's study access is usually tied to the primary applicant's status.
