  1. Hi all, I have another question about this form again. It says -- PHOTOGRAPH The endorsed photograph of the applicant must be attached to this page without obscuring the image. It can also be placed in a plastic sleeve and stapled to this page. If applying for citizenship online, the front and back of the endorsed photograph must also be separately scanned and attached to the applicant’s online application. The photograph IS NOT TO BE SIGNED BY THE APPLICANT The person who has completed the Identity declaration must also endorse the photograph. See Photograph requirements on page 1 ----------------------- We are applying online. Should we attach the photo (front and back) to the form when scanning it and submit it? thank you again
  2. Thank you all again. We have no pet, and so Vets is not an option for us :arghh:, and our kid is only 3 yrs old, , so school teacher is not our option, either. In fact, this morning I checked with a nurse who works in our dentist clinic, and she can sign for us. Thanks to her :notworthy:. Lucky us
  3. Thank you all. We checked with our dentist, but he is not a citizen. we now are waiting for our GP as she only works 2 days a week. Hopefully she can sign for us.
  4. Hello all, I just have a quick question about the form 1195 identity declaration for citizenship application. This forms says that we need to have someone who is in one of the listed professions, and also know the applicant for 12 months. JP is also listed as one of the profession who can sign this form for us. Can I actually ask a JP to sign for this form even we don't know the JP for 12 months? Thank you and Happy new year..
  5. Thank you all for replying.. My husband held a valid visa countinously since first time he entered Australia on 26/08/2011. He had tourist visa (which was valid till 10/6/2012), and then subclass 309 visa (which was grated on 27/1/2012), and then PR (which was granted on 2013). He went offshore in 10/2011 for a couple of weeks to get his medicals sorted out, and re-entered Australia on a valid Tourist visa. He then went offshore again on 25/1/2012 in order for his subclass 309 visa to be granted (he needed to be offshore for this), and re-enter Australia on subclass 309 visa on 6/2/2012. I was wondering if the clock reset at this point, or if he can start counting his 4 years from 26/08/2011. But it seems to me that he will be eligible to apply for citizenship next month (08/2015) :-).. Thanks again
  6. Thank you for your reply... I thought Lawful residence includes time spent on temporary visas (i.e. Student, Working Holiday, Tourist, Bridging Visas) prior to grant or permanent residency? The part I want to confirm is, my husband held tourist visa in and out of Australia a couple of times while waiting for his visa subclass 309 to be granted.. So this time should count towards the 4 years?
  7. Hi experts: I have a question about citizenship application, the residence calculation and the lawful residence date, that I would like to seek for your advise.. Here are the details: My husband got his tourist visa to Sydney on 11/06/2011 valid for 1 year. He applied spouse visa offshore subclass (309 and 100) on 15/07/2011. He then travelled to Sydney and stayed on his tourist visa on 26/08/2011. We went back to Taiwan to submit his health checkup for spouse visa application on 18/10/2011, and came back to Sydney again on 31/10/2011. We went back to Taiwan again on 25/01/2012 and his spouse visa (subclass 309) was granted on 27/01/2012. We then came back to Sydney on 06/02/2012 on his spouse visa. Then his PR got granted on 19/11/2013. My question are: 1. Does his lawful residence date started on the date of 26/08/2011 (which he held tourist visa valid for 1 year) to enter Sydney or does it start on the 06/02/2012 (which he held Temp spouse visa subclass 309)? 2. Is he eligible to apply for his citizenship this year after 26/08/2015 or does he have to wait till 06/02/2016 before he is eligible to apply? Thank you
  8. Hi there~ how's everyone? i am so happy that my husband CO has confirmed that his spouse visa 309 is ready. i have a final question~ because we submitted the application in taiwan, and so we supposed to go back there to have visa labelled. however, we are thinking to save some money and hence we are thinking to have the get the visa label in New Zealand. i've searched the furum and i think it is possible. my question is, if it is possible, how long does it take for visa to be labelled if we go to New Zealand? do we know where the australia immigration is in NZ? thank you~ :smile:
  9. Thank you all for answering~
  10. Thank you GeorgeD and that sounds much easier yo do. The CO has said that the processing time is about 6 month from the day we've lodged the applications. Does that mean they will start reviewing it after the 6 months? Or we are expected to get an anwser around the end of 6 months please? Thank you~
  11. Hi everyone~ Happy new years.. I have a question that I will need everyone's advise please~~ I am applying for spouse visa 309 for my husband, and have submitted the application on 15/7/2011 overseas in Taiwan. Our CO has told us that the average processing time for a partner visa application is 6 months from the time of lodgement. We don't want to stay seperated in 2 different places for all these waiting time, and so husband has been in Sydney on tourist visa (ETA). He first visit was on 26/8/2011 and we both went back to Taiwai for holidays on 16/10/2011. Then we've come back to Sydney together on 1/11/2011 until now (he is still on tourist visa). Because of his tourise visa (ETA) for this entry will expire at the end of this month, and we are not sure if his spouse visa will be granted before that. I am thinking of applying for his extended stay on tourise (e676) Visa http://www.immi.gov.au/e_visa/e676.htm Does everyone think this is a good idea? Or should we just go for a short holidays somewhere and come back again? Thank you~~ :ssign16: visa and fees submitted 15/07/2011, received on 18/07/2011, CO assigned 07/09/2011, medical exam 19/10/2011
  12. thank you all for your suggestions~
  13. Thank you all for applying. We submitted more evidence to show we are living in the same address, more photo, more cards. Hopefully they will be ok.
  14. Thank you and very much appritated your responses.~
  15. Hi there, It is me again for more questions, and hope everyone can help me with my questions. My husband is applying for spouse visa submitted outside of Australia about 3 months ago. The CO has emailed us and wanted us to provide more evidence to prove that our relationship is genuine and continuing. We already gave CO the photo from our travel, daily life, meeting with friends, and wedding. We also gave CO our Marriage certificate, household registration, and our insurance policy with our name listed. Also a couple of cards when we were dating, movice tickets. Obviously, those are not enough and now the CO wants more. So I am wondering what else should we provide now? What is CO looking for in terms of more evidence (that our relationship is genuine and continuing) please? thanks Linda
  16. hi everyone~ its me again and i need urgent advice on the following question please~~ i helped my husband to fill in 47SP form to apply for spouse visa. we submitted the application forms last friday. however, i just realised that we made mistakes with 2 questions.. 1. question 58, the previous marriage date was incorrectly entered (carelessly) it should be 2004, but we entered 1994 by mistake. 2. question 80, the last question, if my husband served in the army before. the answer should have been yes since it is compulsory for men to serve in the army in taiwan. however, we entered "no" carelessly. my question is, how do we correct these 2 answers? should we contact the case officer and re-submit a new 47SP form? or should we submit a statement to correct those 2 answers with explianation? thank you~:notworthy:
  17. Hi everyone~ My husband is applying spouse visa (309/100) and we finally filled in all the forms and have the documents ready to submit. One last thing we would like to confirm is the health check. After we submit the Visa application, can my husband then go to do health check? Or do we must wait for the case officer to notify my husband before he goes for the health check? thank you~:notworthy:
  18. hi everyone~ i am helping my husband to fill in form47sp, and still have a question, and hope you can guide me through.. thank you~ My husband is applying spouse visa on the ground of marriage. Question 75, 76, 77, 78, don't seem to apply to our situation. Should we just leave them blank? Or say no to all these questions? --------------- Q 75 Did you enter Australia as the holder of a Prospective Marriage visa and marry your sponsor? Q. 76 If you are in a de facto or fiancé(e) relationship, are you related to your partner or fiancé(e) by blood, marriage or adoption? Q. 77 Has the relationship ceased? Q. 78 Has family violence occurred? ---------------------- thank you~ :notworthy:
  19. hi everyone, my husband is applying spouse visa, and he is filling the form 47sp. here is the question 9 : "Have you or any dependent family members (migrating with you or not) previously been to Australia, held or currently hold a visa for travel to Australia?" my husband has not been to australia before, but he has a ETA visa (visitor visa) already, and there is no visa label on the passport. so, in this question, should we answer "yes" or "no"? and if answered yes, what is the visa number we should provide? thank you~ :notworthy:
  20. thank you all for your answers, and that helps me a lot.
  21. Hi there, I am an Australian citizen and recently got married. I am preparing the documents to support my husband applying for a visa, but I have some questions and hope everyone can help me with these quetions. 1. Do we need to be married for certian period of time before we can apply for spouse visa (we've been together for 18 months before married)? 2. Husband has a valid tourist visa to Australia. We just got married and don't want to be seperated for too long, so can he travel to Australia with me with tourist visa AFTER he submits spouse visa application? 3. If he travels to Australia on a tourist visa AFTER he submits spouse visa application, will this cause his spouse visa assess/appoval delayed? Thank you:notworthy:
  22. Hi there, I have a few questions about applying a partner visa (309/100) for my husband and am wondering if anyone can help me with the questions please? My husband and I met in Taiwan about 2 years ago, and we just got married this month. I hold an Australian passport, and he holds an Taiwanese passport. I am thinking of applying the partner visa (309/100) for him. My questions are: 1. I read the immigration information it says that my husband can still travel to Australia on a tourist visa while his partner visa applicatin is being processed. If this is the case, should he apply the tourist visa BEFORE or AFTER submitting his partner visa application? 2. It is required to submit two statutory declaration forms (form 888) when submitting the partner visa application. Since most of our common friends are Taiwanese, can I ask them to write the declaration forms for us ? Or do I still have to have 2 Australians friends to write the declaration for us? thank you~:notworthy:
