Brown5 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 My sons passport is due to expire in march of this year, his current passport is linked to his visa and has the yellow visa label in it. We don't think we will be in a position to go to Australia until the end of 2015 or early 2016 and I wasn't going to renew his passport until we had a firm date as we don't intend to travel abroad until we go to Oz, will this be ok and what do I have to do with regards to linking his new passport to our visa ? Or am I best to renew it now ? Many thanks Tracey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 After the passport is renewed you need to fill in form 929 to get visa linked to the new passport. A new visa label now costs £70 AUD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brown5 Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thank you, will it matter if I let the passport expire for more than a year ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 No - but think it is easier to renew a passport which has not expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
