Hello,

I wonder if you can become a resident of Australia if your grandparent was a resident of Australia but is dead now and buried in Australia but your parents didn't live and weren't born there?

You are not eligible to become Australian permanent resident or citizen just because your grandfather is a resident of Australia. You might be allow to visit Australia.
