Hi Everyone,

Curious which documents for the 820 visa are considered required. Anytime I am clicking around my application, I only ever see Recommended documents, never Required. We have uploaded evidence and information for many different categories, and are quite thorough and diligent.
My query is when I am checking out some threads on here, people keep mentioned Required docs and I just want to make sure I haven't missed anything massively obvious or something.

Thanks in Advance!

Did you follow the checklist on the immigration website for the 820/801? That's where you find the list of required things. The immi account upload list is pretty generic and doesn't always apply to everyone.

Yes, I have been through that checklist.
My partner who is Australian has uploaded his police check, but I thought I would wait as some people have mentioned not to bother till they ask for it as it can become invalid by the time anyone gets around to looking at it. And also, the Form 80 is it mandatory for the 820? I have completed it but I was under the impression it was not mandatory.

Form 80 is now listed as a requirement on the website so I'd say so. If you've already completed it, no reason to not upload it.

And yes, police checks and medicals you can hold off on until requested if you like.

since when was the form 80 a requirement? we applied May 7 2017, while our application is yet to be touched I would like to know if we are required to fill this out?
frustrating that things keep changing, I wish we applied a year earlier!

Wasn't listed as one when you applied but they may still ask for it.
