Hi,

I am in the process of applying for a resident return visa for my spouse.Its just too much of paperwork to prove relationship.Thanks GOD there is no interview or fringer prints (biometric information) required for any Australian visa.

Thanks,

Bear in mind the following:

- you need to provide at least 2 years cohabitation otherwise they will all get a temporary visa, which you don't want
- full medicals, police checks, documentation, fee, all from scratch.
- you may be asked to show that you are "usually resident" in Australia. London may be more flexible on this but don't count on it.

You also need to check if their existing visas have been cancelled.

Their visas are probably cancelled so you will need to follow instructions already given.
