Determining whether a person is residing in Australia
SSAct section 7(3) lists the factors to be taken into account when deciding whether a person is residing in Australia. These are:
1. The frequency and duration of the person's travel outside Australia.
2. The nature of the accommodation used by the person in Australia.
3. The nature and extent of the family relationships the person has in Australia.
4. The nature and extent of the person's employment, business or financial ties in Australia.
5. The nature and extent of the person's assets located in Australia.
6. Any other matter relevant to determining whether the person intends to remain permanently in Australia.
When making a determination about whether a person is 'residing' - in other words 'living' - in Australia, the key point is to establish that Australia is the person's settled or usual place of abode - i.e. that the person makes Australia his or her home. In general, it is not possible for a person to be residing in more than one country at the same time. In most cases, the balance of a person's ties will weigh more heavily in favour of one country than another.

A person does not need to be continuously present in a country in order to be residing there. A person holidaying or working temporarily overseas does not necessarily cease to reside in Australia while they are away.
It is necessary to find the reason for being overseas and to look closely at the pattern and duration of time spent outside Australia in order to ascertain whether a person continues to reside in Australia. For Australian residence to be maintained during an absence, a person must demonstrate continued physical ties to Australia, the absence must be for a short duration, there must be a purpose for the absence and there must be a proposed end date for the absence.
Taken in isolation, a 3 year continuous absence would be regarded as an upper limit to still being considered residing in Australia, unless there are special circumstances delaying a return. When looking at the pattern and duration of time spent outside Australia, if a person regularly spends more than 6 months a year outside Australia, then their residence in Australia is questionable.
这个网页详细说明了Residence Requirements的定义以及 how to determine whether a person is residing in Australia。显然,光持有PR签证而不在澳洲居住,是不足以满足age pension的Residence Requirements的。
