Residence Visa

 Residence Visa is the ultimate goal—it is your legal right to live, work, and stay indefinitely in your new country. It marks the transition from "temporary guest" to "permanent resident." Whether you are upgrading from a student visa, skilled worker visa, or need a Resident Return Visa (RRV) to travel, OZEE Pathfinder guides you through the final steps of your migration journey.

Pathway to Citizenship: After holding residence for a specific period (usually 1 year in Australia), you can apply for a passport.

Sponsor Rights: As a resident, you gain the power to sponsor your own family members to join you.

Social Security: Access to social benefits and government support networks.
