Finding out Visa number for backpacking trip to Oz?

Recommended Posts

I am filling in form 47ES for the purpose of lodging my 856 visa (currently in Melbourne on a 457).

 

q70 - Have you previously been to Australia?

 

I came here back in 2003 for a 1yr backpacking holiday.

I can provide dates ok, but have no idea what my visa number was (which is required).

That passport has expired and no idea where it went.

 

How could I find out what that number was?

I am sure if you went in to the local DIAC Office they would be able to advise you of it, there is an office in Dandenong if that helps.

You don't have to remember it:

 

I Do Not Know the Details of Previous Visas for Australia

If you no longer have previous passports, or have otherwise travelled on electronic visas and cannot give us visa label or grant numbers, just provide approximate dates of your previous visits in Australia as best you can. Your case officer is able to ascertain the details of your previous travel directly from our own records in the course of processing yourapplication. It is not necessary to contact us separately to try to obtain this information in advance.
