ORIGINAL POSTERHi all,
I am a DTV holder and would like my girlfriend to get it too. She has to do it from scratch and me having it has no influence right? Or I can do something for her?
Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary
A girlfriend of a DTV holder must apply for her own visa independently, as being a DTV holder does not provide any direct advantages for her application. To obtain the DTV, she will require her own finances and supporting documents. If the couple marries, she can apply for a dependent visa, but without marriage, she should submit her application with all the necessary personal information and financial documentation. Some users suggested providing a letter of financial support if she lacks sufficient income or funds.

She will have to apply herself if you’re not married. But if she doesn’t have the funds or income and you’re worried about her financial position, then include a formal letter with her application stating you will be her financial sponsor and support her for any financial needs, details on your accommodation, bills, finances etc and add 3 months of your bank statements.
I did it for my partner, our application:

If you get married, she can get a dependent visa. While she’s your girlfriend, not wife she has to apply by herself 🙏

For sure you can deposit the 500k funds into her bank account so that she can apply on her own.

Yes, she won't need a visa, you just turn up and say " do you know who I am?".
