Renewing British Passport?
Hi,
We are just in the process of renewing our British passports which expire this year. I have printed off the forms to send to Canberra for the passports.
I am not sure about how I go about getting the new PR visa in our passports. I initially printed off Form 1085 (Application for a Resident Return Visa) but on the front of the form it says "if you are in Australia you do not need to fill in this form." I am confused.
Has any one had to do this recently that can shed some light??
Thanks

You can get a visa stamp transferred at any DIAC office.
