Hi, I’m an Australian citizen living in Thailand and about to start the process of applying for my husband (Italian) Aus partner visa. We have been together since 2012 and were married in Aus almost 2 years ago. We have a baby daughter who is an Aus citizen.
I’m debating whether to apply with an agent’s help or independently. Our case should be straight forward, however I was previously living in UAE and my husband was living in Ireland during the past 10yrs. I’m assuming we will need police checks for these countries as well as Thailand where we’ve been for past 5 years. Is it true that I, as my husband’s sponsor, will also need police checks?
Does anyone have experience getting police checks from UAE or Ireland? Could you please share any advice?
Also any advice on benefits of an agent in a case such as ours? Or should it be simple enough for us to handle on our own?
Hope to be able to help in return along our visa application journey.
