Partner visas & the family violence provisions
If you are on a visa, you do not have to remain in an abusive relationship to remain in Australia.
This is a tagline

If you are on a visa, you do not have to remain in an abusive relationship to remain in Australia.

Do I have to have been living with my partner for 12 months before I can prove our de-facto relationship?

If you have skills, Australian employers need you.
