Orphan Relative visa (subclass 117)
About this visa
This visa allows a child to travel to and live permanently in Australia with their sponsoring relative.
An Orphan Relative visa (subclass 117) is for a child whose parents are dead, permanently incapacitated or of unknown whereabouts. It allows a child in this situation to travel to and stay permanently with their sponsoring relative in Australia.
The sponsoring relative usually applies on behalf of the child.
What you can do
It allows you and any family members who have also been granted this visa to:
- Travel to and stay in Australia indefinitely
- Work and study in Australia
- Enrol in Medicare, Australia’s scheme for health-related care and expenses
- Apply for Australian citizenship (if you are eligible)
- Sponsor eligible relatives for permanent residence
- Travel to and from Australia for five years from the date the visa is granted (after that time, you will need a resident return visa or another visa to return to Australia).
