yes, just comes up with "error" Applicant must supply one complete passport or document for travel record in order to continue

Hi, I'm just wondering if you had any luck with your online application, I have exactly the same issue and it won't let me past page 3. Very frustrating but I've bought this upon myself by letting the passports expire when I could have got this done months ago! Cheers, Scott

Thanks for all your help so far,its put our minds at rest a bit :-)

I put my claim in 3 weeks ago..not heard anything back yet, is it definately valid for any PR visa?? I checking that because I am Family Sponsored and am wondering if that makes a difference when claiming?? Any clarification would be great... Scott and Sally

Thanks Cal, Believe me, anything will be a great help....just wish I had known earlier !! :-)

I know...and there we are been struggling and worrying for no reason....this will be a great help for us...I dont think many people know you can claim..we certainly didnt

Thanks Kev, We will be up there with our boots blacked Monday morning:wink:

thanks for that...I wish I had known earlier, would have made life a lot easier instead of worrying about money all the time...Do you know if they backpay from date of arrival or pay it from time of registration??

I have just been speaking to a guy who came out here 4 years ago and lives on the gold coast.He came out on the same visa we did (176 skilled) and has told me I can claim the Aussie version of child benefit and can claim rent assistance from Centrelink.Does anyone know if this is true?I thought that I could not claim any assistance for anything for 2 years. My wife has found part-time work but I currently am not working(not through lack of trying).Any help would be great thanks, Scott and Sally
