Yeah but i just wanted to know if its mandatory or its fine because transactions are between me and my husband as well in my account.
Thanks

It is mandatory to have a joint account as you and your husband need to show the daily expenses on the Joint account.

This way the department will see that the income is coming into that account as well.

I suggest your husband should let the employer know to transfer the income funds to the joint account.

Dont quote me wrong but that should be fine as long as it is a Joint account and income coming in. But i am guessing you will be work in the future ?
 

I am not sure about work but i have already opened my own account here.

Ok that is good you can open another account with your partner as well.

Hi Asim,

It is good to start planning well in advance and to get all the documents as per the requirements. 

As per your questions I could answer them but i could be wrong. It is better to get a professional advise as i am new to the forum but have been following other forums from since few years .

 

1) applicant got her 309 visa with help of an immigration agent. He got the immi account through which she got her visa. Now, if we decide to apply the subclass 100, can we do it ourself? Do we need to create a new immi account or it will go through the same immi account??

If you are applying by yourself you will need to create a new immi account as the agent will not provide you the details unless you know the person personally. I am not sure if once you create a new account and write to immigration to request the previous application to appear on your current account. 

2) we submitted Form 888 with our sublcass 309 application, will it be used for subclass 100 too? What if we want to use different Form 888 for next stage?

I've read in other forums that The form 888 validity is for 6 weeks only applies for specific circumstances -  at least that is how I interpreted the info in the Partner Migration booklet.

3) we had a joint bank account for 309 visa, she is here in Australia now, do we need to have a joint account here too? Also having her on a rental lease as a partner helps? Sharing bills under her name?

Yes you will need to have a joint account here in Australia as well, plus adding her on lease, bills etc. Don't forget to add her on your Emergency contact at your workplace .
