Australian Immigration Daily News

From 1 August 2014, the Permanent Partner processing centres in Melbourne and Brisbane will start sending the two year document information request letter, for the assessment of permanent partner visa applications, to registered migration agents by email. From this date the department will cease posting these letters.

If your client is eligible for assessment of their permanent visa and a document request letter has not been received, the required information is available on our website at www.immi.gov.au/contacts/forms/partner.

Prior to 1 August, we ask that you check we have your correct email address and that exception rules are put in place if required so our emails are not sent to the ‘Junk folder’ by your email system.

If you have a question or would like more information about the changes, you can phone:

Brisbane office—Darren Payne on 07 3136 7240

Melbourne office—Rhonda Le Nevez on 03 9235 3236
