Nicko Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Hi there, just wondering if somebody could please help me. I’m an the sponsor and a dual citzen. I’ve been living in UK since 2001 - I uploaded a Police Certificate from the Uk for the two of us but we have had a RFI come back asking for a Australian Police Certificate even though I have not lived back there for nearly 20 years. This is the request - Your sponsor needs to obtain an AFP National Police Certificate by completing a National Police Check application form. The application form is available on the AFP website www.afp.gov.au/what-we-do/services/criminal-records/national-police-checks Use Code 33 - 'Immigration/Citizenship - Australia' - for the supply to the Department Any Ifeas and will it be easy enough to obtain if I’m living in the Uk? Many Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulhand Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 It’s often easier just to give them what they want. The certificates are easy to obtain online, but I recommend getting it sent to a trusted friend or relative in Aus who can open it and scan for you as it’s risky trusting the global postal system. They seem to be taking a long time at the moment, so I’d order ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
