VerifiedGood Evening
Thank you for your question. To Introduce myself I am a sydney based Solicitor and will do my best to provide you with relevant information to assist you.
Being a permanent resident is not an issue. The divorce will not impact on your visa.
You cannot get legal aid for the divorce.
Legal aid would assist if there is an issue with the children and you cannot agree, but that would depend on you being eligible.
The visa is not an issue.
I hope this is of assistance. If I have missed anything, or you have any further questions please let me know before leaving any feedback.
If I have assisted please do not forget to leave me with positive feedback.
