"Same sex partners of skilled migrants and students will soon be recognised by Australia for immigration purposes”, Minister for Immigration, Amanda Vanstone, announced.

"Australian citizens and permanent residents can currently sponsor same sex partners into Australia, " the Minister said.

" However, skilled migrants and students have not been able to include same sex partners.

"While same sex partners could enter Australia in their own right, often as visitors, the fact that couples were not treated together in the same application created some uncertainty for them and a potential loss for Australia of highly skilled migrants.

"Skilled migrants and students could list heterosexual partners on their visa application, but not same sex partners. This change will remove this anomaly.

The new provisions will initially apply to temporary skilled migrants (457 visa) from 1 July 2006. The provisions will apply to other categories of skilled migrants and students not before 2007.
