ShaunR6883 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Hi guys Myself and my family have been on 457 visa's for almost 3 years. Last year I had to get my son a new passport from the UK as his old one was due to run out. We never informed the immigration department of the new passport as we assumed that the 457 visa details would transfer automatically. In March this year I applied for 186 sponsored visa's and I put my son's new passport details in. Have I done wrong in assuming that the 457 visa would automatically transfer onto the new one? I am worried now as I'm not sure how I would go about changing this. I still have his old passport. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

Guest Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Yes, you assumed wrong. Read this and it explains and has a link to the form needed or if you have an immi account, then via that. https://www.border.gov.au/Lega/Lega/Form/Immi-FAQs/how-can-i-update-my-address-or-passport-details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunR6883 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 Hi, thats great thanks for the info. One question...I only created an Immi account when I applied for 186 visa's. The passport was already renewed for several months before. And I already submitted the new passport details? Regards Shaun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Shaun They sent me a bridging visa for my son with his new passport details on, would this mean that everything has transferred over?
