Hopefully we will be doing the papers early next year for my wifes son to move to Australia

We thought we had to go through the visa process

But just looking at the Australian embassys website

from what i have read if one of the parents(my wife is an oz citizen)has Australian citizenship then the child can apply fo citizenship

Do we have to do the visa process or cab we just apply for Australian citizenship for my stepson

Cheers

Rabbitoh,

From your post, it is my understanding that your wife’s son was not born to an Australian citizen, that is, your wife acquired her Australian citizenship after the birth of her son. Is this correct? If so, he is not entitled to Australia citizenship.

The appropriate visa for your wife’s son is a Child (permanent) - (Offshore) subclass 101 visa.
