W2O Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 My British passport expires in a year and I figure it would be easier/cheaper to renew it before heading to Oz. Is it best to renew it now (while my visa application is still in the queue) or wait until I’ve received my visa? My concern with waiting until after the visa is granted is that I assume my visa will be attached to my current passport?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon the Hat Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Your visa is electronic these days, so once you have updated your immi account with your new passport details it should switch to being linked to your new passport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I guessed it possibly would be so it’s good to have confirmation of that, thanks. How would I update my passport number if I don’t renew until after being granted my visa - do I still use my Immi account or would there be some other way to update it?
