Hey guys!

Reaching out for quick help, especially from friends who have just submitted the 887 application 

While filling the application form, there is this question, which says "Provide details of all countries in which you, your spouse/de facto partner or dependents (accompanying or not) have lived for 12 months or more (since turning 16) during the last 10 years. The 12 month period of residence may be made up of a number of shorter periods. You must account for every year."

Is the expectation that we mention all entry and exits in the last 10 years, in countries were we lived cumulatively for 12+ months in the last 10 years? Similar to what we did in Form 80? E.g. My wife has made several visits to Dubai to visit her parents and her overall stay in the last 10 years exceeds 12+ months

Looking forward to hearing from you guys

Regards

Hello Everyone! 

Reaching out for help around Form 80 question no. 35 (Have you been to Australia before?)

As someone who arrived in Australia directly on 489, is the expectation that we mention ALL entries and exits into and out of Australia after the first arrival?

E.g. I made my first entry into Australia and went back to my home country and fully immigrated a month later. Do we mention this in this question?

Thanks for the help in advance 

Regards

Hello Everyone! 

Reaching out for some help. Had a quick question around Question No. 17, which requires address details for last 10 years on From 80

1. I had made my first entry to Australia and had stayed for 2 weeks and went back to my home country. Do we include the address details of this short visit as well?

2. When I made my permanent move, I landed in Melbourne, I again stayed in MEL for around 2 weeks because I had a job offer and had my initial orientation and training in MEL before we moved to Adelaide. Do I Include this hotel details in the address? 

Both of these were short visits of 2 weeks each and I was not sure if the expectation is to include these short trips as well

Thanks for all the help in advance

Hello everyone! 

Reaching out for your guidance and help! Apologies in advance if some of these questions have been before. If there is a response that exists on this thread, please guide me to that discussion

I am  getting ready to submit my application next week and was uploading all the documents now and have the following questions 

1. Is it best to upload all payslips individually (I have 24) or do I club into one file and submit? 

2. Same question for utility bills and tax assessment notice. Is it best to upload individually for each quarter or should I club them?

3. Does any document require JP certification?

Appreciate any help on this pls

Hello Guys! Reaching out for some suggestion. 

I am getting ready to apply for my 887 and was slightly unsure of one thing around residency. I am currently working for a firm and my role requires me to travel extensively to Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra on business. My trips dont last beyond 2 to 5 days each time I travel and everything in Adelaide is BAU during that time. Should I be taking my domestic business travels into account while calculating my two year residency? 

Please let me know

Cheers

Hi,

If you pay for your friend get proof. Otherwise get the letter from him.

You could count residency period while you staying with friend. 

Thanks Ravana!

Was it in regional area? If yes, Ask your friend to write a declaration provides that you were residing in his property during that period of time. Moreover, if you still have a copy for any transaction i.e. grocery , receive a mail to that address, 

 

Thanks Mate! This helps 

Hi Everyone! New to the forum and have a quick question.

The first month and half after I arrived from my home country, I actually stayed with my friend before finding a house for myself

In this case, what proof of residence should I be giving for the time I was staying with my friend? Or should I be counting my 2 years from the day of my rental lease? 

Let me know please

Regards
