My Dad (61) has been in Australia for the past year on a tourist visa (600). His visa is valid for a year (expires soon) and he has been abiding to the visa conditions set.
Every 3 months he is required to leave Australia, which he then travels to spend time with my brother in New Zealand, so that has worked out well for him.
In April this year, my dad also applied for a sub class 143 visa, which has a very long processing time.
My dad needs to apply for another tourist visa, but I was wondering what the chances are of getting a “more favorable” tourist visa?
By that I mean, is it possible to get a visa duration longer than 12 months as well as increasing the max stay limit more than 3 months?
