Guest destinationoz Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Hi again! I'm completing our Form 80's for our 176 SS Visa Application and have a few questions - I wonder if anyone can help? 1) Q13 - asks for details of all passports ever issued - are they literally asking for all numbers of all past UK passports - I think I may have thrown away our old passports ... 2) Q26 - details of all visits to countries outside Oz - is this asking for info on every holiday we have been on in the last 10 years - as there must be about 20 holidays outside the UK and I defo can't recall the exact dates of every one and as most were european our passports won't give dates either as they no longer stamp them .... how precise do I need to be ?? 3) Q27 - what does "Your Current Travel document details" mean / refer to? Thank you very much to anyone that can answer one or all of my queries - I really appreciate your support (I don't have a migration agent) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much to anyone that can answer one or all of my queries - I really appreciate your support (I don't have a migration agent) Hi destinationoz Hope this helps... or gives good guidance!! I believe, the purpose of Form 80 is to provide additional information about you IF it is requested. Therefore, I don't think it matters as such if not 110% of the details can be/are provided - and Immigration can check anyway the travel movements of everyone who enters Australia. 1) They literally are, yes. If you can find them - great, if you can't, I'm sure someone here can advise you as to how it's possible to get information on all the passports you've ever owned?? 2) Again yes that's what they want to know, that's what it says. Provide as much as you can. I've only ever had to note France & America personally, but really, with a bit of time it'll all come flooding back to you I'm sure!! 3) Current travel document details - if you're travelling to Australia anytime before receipt of your visa, you will get an ETA (also referred to as your Holiday Visa) which lasts for 90 days. It's the details of that, as far as I can remember... Agents have said to me in the past form 80 is unlikely to be used unless there are problems elsewhere with your application. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest destinationoz Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Wow! That's excellent - Thanks a million LukeM - I really appreciate it ... just one other question from Form 80 ... For Q.31 where it asks for "Visa details of Initial arrival" - is this for any visa details I have from a holiday to Oz 3 years ago OR visa details that I am applying for ?? Thanks lots again!

LukeM Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Also, note there's very little space on Form 80 - there's only room for 2 or 3 passports per person I think so *ideally* you're supposed to attach extra things to it if you have more... I guess they're not going to care about a passport you had when you were 5! Haha :laugh: Best of luck with your application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
