Bumblebeem Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Go to immi site and download form for new details (form 929 I think it is). Send with certified copy of new and old passport. Only takes a few days. I phoned to confirm changes a week after I did this ? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Agree with the above and would do that. But have read you can just carry your old passport also and they will check against that. But for long term use I'd get the visa swapped over to your current passport asap. Saves carting 2 passports around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpledonna Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Sorry for daft question but is a just a photocopy of the new and the old passport that you send in alongside the form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblebeem Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Sorry for daft question but is a just a photocopy of the new and the old passport that you send in alongside the form? Certified photocopy. A solicitor etc will photocopy the passport and certify that it's a true copy of the original which he/she has sighted Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpledonna Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and sent in a certified copy yesterday. Do you know if you get a reply saying that they've linked the old passport across to the new one or do you just have to assume that it's done? Thanks.
