Partner temporary stage to subclasses 801/100 permanent stage

After subclass 820 or 309 is granted, the combined application normally proceeds to the 801 or 100 permanent stage. The permanent stage is generally assessed from two years after the original combined application, and the relationship must remain genuine and continuing. Long-term relationships, family violence and sponsor death can change the usual process.
