Re: having relative in Aus
What kind of migration:
- Remaining relative?
- Skilled Sponsored?
- Skilled Designated Area Sponsored?
- something else?
Rules are different.
Why don't you say just what kind of relative you're talking about?

Re: having relative in Aus
for skilled migration..
the relationship is my uncle's (ie. my father's brother) wife's sister...
hmm....complicated.....
somehow i don't think she is a 'relative' to DIMA

1) a non-dependent child (natural, adopted, step)
2) a parent
3) a brother or sister (adoptive or step-siblings included)
4) a niece or nephew (including adoptive or step)
5) a first cousin
6) a grandchild
Your father's brother's wife's sister (effectively your non-blood-related aunt's sister), isn't on this list.
For skilled-Australian sponsored, only the 1st 4 types of relatives listed above will qualify.
So, the answer is, you won't get much help from your "relative" as sponsor for a skilled visa.
BTW, this information is easily available from the Skilled Migration Booklet, which would set you back by a grand total of AUD$10.
