So is there any leeway on the balance of family test? None of our family have seen my adopted brother for ten years we don't even know if he is alive. How much info do you HAVE to put on the visa?

Booklet 3 (available for download from the DIMIA site) is essential reading.

Noteworthy points for contributory parent:
- you need to be in Australia for 2 years to sponsor
- parents must meet the balance of family test
- high charge to get the visa
- ten year assurance of support (two years ATO tax assessments with minimum income required)
- standard health and character criteria.

On the other hand processing time is fairly quick at the moment.
