Australia visitor visa FAQs
What is the 'genuine temporary entrant' requirement?
Australia must be satisfied you genuinely intend to stay temporarily for the stated purpose. You show this with a clear purpose, realistic itinerary, sufficient funds and strong ties to India.
How much money should I show for an Australia visitor visa?
There's no fixed figure, but you should show funds that comfortably cover your trip, with a stable balance over recent months and any large deposit explained. We assess your case in the ₹499 report.
Can my Australian relative sponsor my visit?
Yes — for family visits, a relative's invitation and financial support can strengthen your application, and in some cases a sponsorship/bond may apply.
Can you guarantee the visa?
No — the decision rests with the Department of Home Affairs. We make your genuine-visitor case, funds and ties as strong and consistent as possible.
How long can I stay in Australia on a tourist visa?
The Department of Home Affairs decides 3, 6, or 12 months per visit based on your circumstances. The visa grant letter will specify 'stay period' — strictly observe it. Overstaying is a serious immigration offence.
Do I need to apply through VFS Global?
No — all applications are lodged online through ImmiAccount. VFS Global in India is only the biometrics collection centre. You visit VFS after applying, not before.

What a strong Australia file needs
Genuine visitor evidence
A clear, temporary purpose and an itinerary that fits it. The genuine-temporary-entrant test is central to Subclass 600.
Sufficient funds
Bank statements showing you can cover the trip, with a stable history and explained large deposits.
Strong family & home ties
Employment, business, property and dependents in India that show clear reasons to return.
Sponsor/invitation (family visits)
If visiting relatives, their invitation, status and (sometimes) financial support strengthen the file.
Health & character
Depending on stay length and history, health insurance and clean character declarations may be needed.
Why Australia visas get refused — and how we fix it
Not a 'genuine temporary entrant'
Doubt that the visit is genuinely temporary. Fix: specific purpose, realistic itinerary, strong ties.
Insufficient or unexplained funds
Low balance or unexplained deposits. Fix: stable 6-month statements + source of funds.
Weak ties to India
No clear return incentive. Fix: job/business/property/dependents evidenced.
Inconsistent information
Application details that don't match supporting documents. Fix: a consistent, cross-checked file.

“I had an outstanding experience using their services for my Spanish National Visa application. Filling out visa forms can be quite complex and stressful, but they handled everything with remarkable accuracy, professionalism, and thorough attention to detail. Every single section of my application was prepared meticulously, which gave me total confidence before submitting. The entire process was seamless, fast, and completely hassle-free. I am extremely grateful for their guidance and would highly recommend their services to anyone applying for a visa.”
“It was a great experience at Pro lifeset Overseas. My VISA was not processed because of some error in filing at my first place, which i got to know after one month. There was very little time for my travel and I talked to Mr Sherbir Singh of Prolife set, who gives me the hope and filed my VISA application in a systematic manner. I got the VISA well in advance. Also helped me in hotel booking and getting insurance cover. He is soft spoken, always a phone call away. Thank you Prolifeset and in particular Mr Sherbir Singh for the help and proper guidance for filling VISA application, will love to do my future travel planning with Pro Life set. Thank you very much”
