Dual Argentinian and Italian citizen Barbara Sanchez has called Australia home for seven years, and hoped to make that permanent when she and her husband Lyndon Tyers applied for a partnership visa earlier this year.
The long-term couple married in January 2015 with hopes of starting a family in Mr Tyers’ home town of Brisbane.
But a decision by the Australian government has turned their plans for the future upside down.
In an online petition pleading for support for the decision to be reviewed, Mr Tyers wrote:
“My wife and I were shocked to receive the unexpected news that after applying for the second time our Partner Visa, with no valid reasons, had been rejected again.
“We were told that Barbara is being deported and has 28 days to leave Australia, the country in which she has been living for the past seven years, the country after all these years she calls home.”
