461 for my Mother?

[aussiegal71]

We are a family of NZ Citizens (Husband and myself, 2 kids) living in Australia and my British mother wishes to join us and live with us in our home. She is not coping well on her own and I would love to be able to help her on a daily basis. My question is, as she will be dependant on us, is divorced and will be living in our home, is she eligible for a 461 visa? Should we wait until she is here and under our roof to apply? What proof will be needed that she is dependant?

Hi! I was wondering how you got on with that application for your mother? I am intending on doing exactly the same and noticed no one had replied to you yet. Were you successful?

Thank you so much for your help :-)
