How to get Onshore to apply for Aged Parent visa
We have currently applied for Contributory Parent Visa 173 (in June 2016). At that time the processing time was 18-24 month and has now increased to 34-36 months!
Would it be possible to re-apply as Aged Parents (both over 70)? The problem seems to be that we have to apply 'onshore'. I have read that it is illegal to travel to Aus with the intension of applying for this (quicker) Visa. How, then, do we get there - how does anyone apply onshore if they do not have permission to be there? :unsure: |

I suppose our intension would be obvious, having already applied!
We have a 5 week holiday in December so if we decide not to return to UK we could re-apply then? |
