Hello team AF.

You are wonderful, just finishing off our statements for 820. Should our future plans include plans to marry or does that go against the reason for applying for a defacto visa? I am unsure about this.

Can someone also clear up this SP47 and SP40 issue. I am under the impression that SP47 is to be filled out online rather than uploaded (which i will do) BUT what about the 40SP sponsors form. Is that available to fill in online (when the accounts are linked) or is it easier to fill in and upload?

Finally our application will be decision ready (everything will be done, health and police as well as all docs) is there a place that you can say that to your potential CO?

I am sure I will add to these questions as we start to upload over the weekend. Timeline to follow aswell, hoping I can help potential applicants with general questions!

Keep up the good work.

David

Thanks Mish, I think we will upload all docs and take the hit of redoing if need be. Any thoughts on the marriage question. We intend on marrying in our time but not sure whether the 820 option is strictly for people who don't want to get married? Should we mention marriage in our future plans statement?

Countdown to application (5 days)

Application started! I am sure the answer is somewhere for this question but thought i would ask here...'Date committed de facto relationship began' is the question I am up to....is this referring to when my partner and I started living together? Technically a defacto relationship is after 12 months of living together??

Started to live together on June 1st 2014...12 months of living together later and it is June 1st 2015. any thoughts on which date I should use here?

Mish thank you for taking the time with these questions. we have just paid. My partner is now questioning the 'linking sponsor bit'

Her question is should she be creating a new immi account to then start a 'sponsor an application'

OR

Logging in on My Immi account (applicants immi account) to then start a 'sponsor and application'

Is there any difference? I have seen it suggested that both applicant and sponsor should use the same login to immi account. what is the reason behind this?

Thanks again.

Still posting question hoping to get answers to people who have experienced the online apps..I am going to include a contents page on our application, how do i reference documents on the sponsors application? will they all show up all at once for our CO or will i have to explicitly say 'sponsors application document ....'

 

[Toddinaus]

So more questions!!!! is there anyway I can notify immi that it is a decision ready application i know there is a document option which we will use is this the only way?!

Other question is, online application photo requirements, would I be able to take a passport photo myself to upload? quicker and easier compared to paying $$$.

anyone else done this?

Thanks

Love all the comments coming in very much helping me decided what the next steps to take are...

another question I have if anyone can jump on this is uploading more evidence as time goes on? Will a potential CO see more recent evidence and think we aren't ready to assess or is it beneficial to show we are continuing?

Thoughts?
