Jon the Hat Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Hi All I have yesterday submitted my 309/100 visa application, and I have booked my medical and applied for UK police certificate for me and my wife (sponsor). My question is this - as we have lived in the UK for more than 10 years does my wife also require an Australian AFP certificate / clearance? Thanks Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobC269 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) I applied from UK (this year) and my sponsor didn't need any police checks to get my visa granted. Rob Edited March 20, 2018 by RobC269 Extra info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsShields12 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I applied this year and my husband ( sponsor ) did need AFP because he was sponsoring his step son too. My son who is under 16 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon the Hat Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 It seems to be some are asked and some are not. I guess this is a pretty cheap check, so why not. Now I go in to set it in motion, and the website is down until tomorrow night. Sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visa@mnmvisa.com Further more all sponsors will have had to spend a single day in Australia! or will have a hard time being able to sponsor.
