Hi everyone, I have read many posts regarding stat decs from family and friends.
So I asked my 2 USA friends to each write a statement about our relationship as they have known us the longest.
But they didn't understand and wrote one as a couple, my question is do I ask them again to write separate statements or will it be ok for the dept to accept?
Another person wrote Australian statements can be written as a stat dec, form 888 or a personal statement.
Does that mean I don't have to ask my family to use the 888 form?

Thanks in advance
Cathy

You can ask whoever you like. If they are Australian Citizens or PR's they can use the Form 888. If they are not, then they can do a Stat Dec of affidavit answering the same questions. I don't see any problem with a statement being provided by a couple.

Thank you Jeremy,
Very much appreciated, I am glad I can use the couples statement.
One more item to tick off, thanks again.
