Form 80 Question

Gump · 21-02-2007, 10:03 PM

Hi,

Could somebody please shed some light on the following...

Question 23, list all countries that you have visited in the past 10 years, including dates.

I know where I have been but I have no idea of the dates. Should I leave these out should I just put the country and the length of stay.
Most of these have been weekend breaks (leave friday, come home sunday)

Any advice would be appreciated,

Gump

Hi, No it does mean holiday destinations not just where you've lived. I have no idea why they want so much info!

Anyway, I just listed the countries that we'd holiday'd in and guessed the dates! They didn't question it. There is no way of providing this information unless you get your passport stamped in every country or keep your collect flight tickets!!

Hi there,

I'm at same question and spoke to my agent about dates, they said if you could put inany dates we could remember, month and year would be good,

Hi Gump

I don't think I can help but out of interest which visa is that you're applying for? I didn't have to answer that for my general skilled 136 application. On my form question 23 was about where I planned to live in Australia.

good luck with it!

I have been abroad ton of times so this question really scared me especially as we spent 15 months travelling in 2003! but that proved to be the easy part as I still had all the stamps in my passport,

All together I could account for 38 trips abroad, but then I had been on a load of euoropean trips too which you do not get passport stamps for any more so I just listed what I could remember and what year I thought they were in then just put below "various eouropean city breaks" I think they are more concerned about major countries visited (I hope so anyway!!! we'll soon find out, our official application should hit Aussie soil today!!

Just checked over my message, a spell check would have been good on here Tim.

Debs64 this is relating to form 80 which as far as I know has to be submitted with the visa application.

Debs64 I can confirm what Banoff has said. The form 80 needs submitted for anyone on the application who is over 16. I spoke to the embassy myself about this because I didnt know if I needed to do one for just being a spouse. And I did.

Hi Gump,
I had this form on my application (spouse visa) and i had to list all the countries i had holidayed in & countries i have lived in during the last 10 years - i only just remembered the approx year dates and put the best info that i could, i woudnt leave any date spaces put in the best info that you can - i shoudnt worry too much i think they are only really worried about the major bad countries if you get what i mean
