Thanks for your help

I had to dig out all the evidence that we were legitimate despite the marriage certificate - but didn't have to be interviewed, all the info the online application form requested including letters from friends had to be submitted

Hello All, This is my first post so hopefully I get it right... I've received my permanent visa (partner/subclass 100) and now have to apply for visa's for my children whom I have to sponsor. The sponsor form asks for proof of length of residency, I'm not sure how I would prove this and wondered if anyone has done this recently/can advise? I'm planning my first trip since receiving the visa next month, it is only a two week stay; will I get some kind of stamp in my passport? I'd thought everything would be electronic these days so immigration would just check on my passport/border control... Thanks

Hi, I applied for my partner visa after just over 4 years of marriage in Dec 2014, I live in the UK and my Australian citizen husband lives in Australia, I thought I'd get the temporary partner visa but actually received both the temporary and permanent visa on the same day last October, just over 10 months after the original submission. It caught me out as I now have to apply for permanent visa's for my children (from a previous partner, now I have consent) when I thought I'd have a two year window to add them to my temporary visa. It's all good I hope and we will all eventually end up in Australia together...
