          \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

          Yes, but the adoption must have occurred before the child turned 18, and the adoptive parent must not have been an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or eligible New Zealand citizen at the time of adoption.

          Yes, but they must hold a valid visa, such as a Visitor visa. The 101 visa itself is an offshore visa, so the child must be outside Australia at the time of grant.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
