Transferring visa onto new passport
Hi all,
I'm hoping to get clarity and advice on switching a visa onto a new passport.
I am currently on the 186 and a PR. I am in the UK at the moment but returning to Australia in October this year. I am the process of renewing my passport here in London, and I just wanted to double-check if I was able to change the passport attached to this visa online? It says on the Immi website that I can do this by logging into my account, but I can't see the option anywhere once logged in.
If not, it seems I have to send a form to Australia. There are a number of state addresses to send said form to- do I need to send this to the state where my visa was granted? If so this is Western Australia, however I will be entering the country in Victoria.
Has anyone changed their passport over and any advice would be appreciated!
