It provides investors with a 4-year and 3-month residence permit. In the last few years, the processing times have increased due to backlog and are now estimated to take up to 20 months. Applicants are required to spend at least 2 years of those 4 years physical present in Australia. After having held the investment for 4 years, investors can apply for a permanent visa. Citizenship can be gained after 4 years of residence, which includes 12 months of permanent residence.<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 169px;\" width=\"804\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">\n<p>Investment amount<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">\n<p>1.5M AUD investment Territory Securities<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"312\">\n<p>Application fees<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"312\">\n<p>4,985 AUD + 9,795 AUD if no functional English is spoken by the main applicant; 2,495 AUD + 4,890 AUD if no functional English for adult dependents; 1,245 AUD for minor dependents<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/globalresidenceindex.com\/news-australia-entrepreneur\/\"><strong>Read also about the Australia Entrepreneur program.<\/strong><\/a><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Significant Investor Stream<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Significant Investor stream is more expensive and also provides investors with a 4-year and 3 month residence permit.

Applicants are required to live in Australia for at least 40 days per year (calculated cumulatively) for the duration of the provisional visa, or the spouse to live there for at least 180 days per year (calculated cumulatively) for the duration of the provisional visa. After having held the investment for 4 years, investors can apply for a permanent visa.
