Temporary Visas
Regional Investor Visa
For those considering a Retirement visa, the age band is 55+, must have sufficient income and/or capital available for transfer to Australia and have no dependants. For this category, you may benefit from having a child permanently resident in Australia as this means the income/capital threshold you have to meet is set slightly lower.
Necessary Visa Conditions:
This visa allows you to stay temporarily in Australia for 4 years.
If you wish to stay longer, you can apply for a further Investor Retirement visa which is valid for another 4 years. You will need to satisfy certain health and financial criteria, and also lodge a further bond.
You are not entitled to social security or welfare benefits while in Australia, and you will need to take out adequate health insurance to cover your stay in Australia.
You will be entitled to work for up to 20 hours per week on your investor retirement visa.
