Valid Passports - Quick question???

milliemoo · 11-05-2008, 04:10 PM

We are new to all this and still really thinking about whether to take the plunge or not. We have got the initial forms from an agent and about to send them off for their appraisal of OH qualifications.

Do we both have to have valid passports at this stage? I ask as mine expired last year, my OH expires next year.

Hi

Firstly would like to welcome you to PIO.

Not sure of the correct answer re passports, but when we had our first appt with agent we had to take our passports with us and they were photocopied.

By the way, love the picture of your daughter and cat.

I arent 100% sure but I think you do have to have valid passports to link the visa too, and they ask for your passport number on the forms you have to fill in.

Hi Guys and welcome to PIO. Your passport number has to go on top of the form.

Hi and welcome to PIO. We have had a similar problem in that my passport has run out, the kids dont have one and my oh lost his.

However, we will told by our agent as long as oh had his passport when we do the skills assessment and everyone else had there's by the time the visa application went in, then no problems.

Hope this helps
