Partner Visa Fees 2004 to 2022.

Partner Visa Fee Changes 2004 to 2022.

The cost of an Australian Partner visa normally changes every July, but by  different amount each year.

These rises have varied from 0.5% up to 5.4% each year between 2017 and 2022.

Looking back over 17 years, the annual increases have averaged 8.32% and 10.64%.

This higher annual increase was caused by the unusual 2015 increase of 55.5% for the onshore 820, and 122.5% for the offshore 309.
