Documentation Checklist

To assist with the preparation of your visa application, below is a list of suggested evidence. The Department understands all relationships are different, so the following serves as a guide only:

1. Personal Documents:

  • Valid passport
  • Birth certificate
  • Marriage certificate (if applicable)
  • Divorce or separation papers (if applicable)
  • Death certificate of former spouse (if applicable)

2. Identity Documents:

  • Australian driver’s license or other photo identification
  • Medicare card or other government-issued identification

3. Evidence of Relationship:

  • Statements from friends and family members confirming the genuineness of your relationship
  • Photographs together
  • Joint financial documents showing your name and your partner’s name that can be a strong indicator that you shared a financial commitment. These can be bank accounts, joint loans, or joint credit cards.
  • Joint bills – If you and your partner share a household, providing joint bills such as electricity, water, gas bills, can demonstrate that you’re sharing household expenses.
  • Evidence of shared assets refers to any resources or possessions that are jointly owned or manage. Examples of shared assets include property ownership, and vehicles that is jointly owned or leased.
  • Evidence of shared activities and holidays any experiences, events or trips that are enjoyed by couple. Examples of shared activities could be family holidays, weekend hobbies, cultural or religious festivities or work-related events.
  • Evidence of communication any indication that you and your partner are engaged in effective communication with each other. These can be collaborative decision making and prompt responses to messages, emails, or phone calls.

4. Health Requirements:

  • Completed health examinations for all applicants
  • Health insurance information

5. Character Requirements:

  • Police clearance certificates for all countries lived in for more than 12 months over the past 10 years
  • Details of any criminal convictions or charges
  • Details of any previous visa refusals or cancellations

It is recommended that all necessary documentation be collected and organized in a timely manner. To expedite processing, it is important that all required information, such as health exams and police checks, be included with your application or provided promptly thereafter. Hammond Migration has provided an info sheet for important considerations on their website.

In the event that more than 18 months have elapsed since completion of your health exams or more than 15 months have passed since issuance of your National Police certificate by the Australian Federal Police (AFP), new checks will be necessary in order to proceed with your application.

As a visa applicant, it is imperative that you provide accurate information and demonstrate proof of your identity. Failure to satisfy Public Interest Criterion (PIC) 4020 may result in visa application rejection if you or any member of your family unit fail to meet the identity verification requirements, provide false or misleading documentation, or provide false or misleading information pertaining to a visa held within the 12 months prior to submitting your current application.

Our team is prepared to provide the necessary guidance and support by ensuring that all required documentation and information is provided in a timely and accurate manner and improve the likelihood of a successful outcome for your Partner Visa (Subclass 820) application.
