Skilled migrants will soon be able to sponsor same sex partners to come to Australia, Immigration Minister Amanda Vanstone said.
She said citizens and permanent residents can currently sponsor same sex partners to migrate to Australia but skilled migrants were not offered the same provisions.
But she said this soon would be changed so skilled migrants could include same sex partners on their visa application.
