Re: STILL VERY SPARKLY contributory parent visa thread part 3.
Hi, thanks and we are the same now trying to get everything lined up.
With regards to form 80, it asks for previous passport numbers and my parents didnt keep copies. They have tried to ring the passport office but were told that they didnt hold this information.
What do we do? Should we just put down the current passport number and advice that previous passport numbers not known?
Cheers.

Re: STILL VERY SPARKLY contributory parent visa thread part 3.
Visited family for 5th time in Jan/Feb
Made the big decision ............. finally while there
Looked up info and eligability, started to hunt for various certificates and info needed
Appointed an agent March
Commenced lots of form filling April
Stuff sent to Perth 15th April and 1st payment to DIAC made
waiting for acknowledgement!..............then the long wait begins
Oh yes, we hope to settle in Adelaide near the family - hopefully Flagstaff Hill, Blackwood, Coromandal area if we can still afford it when we eventually sell our house

Re: STILL VERY SPARKLY contributory parent visa thread part 3.
We have a case officer!!! 
and as you can tell are very happy!
Steve - could you please update the tracker please.
Our e-mail has asked for all info to be provided within next 28 days, if not sooner, as they are hoping to grant the visa before the end of June.
Parents are now trying to fill in form 80........
Do you know if you can complete Form 80 and then scan and attach it via e-mail or if it has to be sent by post?
Thanks.

Re: STILL VERY SPARKLY contributory parent visa thread part 3.
Sorry, last question;
Form 80 states Q21: Previous addresses of the places where you have lived during the last 10 years (including Australia).
My parents have stayed in Majorca in a flat they rent for up to 6 months at a time over the last 10 years. But they still technically lived in the UK.
Should they put this under places they have lived or just under question 26: Give details of all visits (including short stays) to countries outside Australia for the last 10 years?
Thanks again.

Actually I see the wording on the form has changed since we did ours - there's no reference to 1 year, so it would imply everything has to go on there.
Cheers

Re: STILL VERY SPARKLY contributory parent visa thread part 3.
If the period exceeded 1 year (cumulatively) it should be included I think. Then they will probably need police clearance as a result from there.

I guess it depends on what they mean by "live" and how this compares with an extended holiday. For example they have just spent 6 months on holiday in Australia but I wouldnt consider that "living" there.
Cumulatively the visits do add up to more than 12 months.
Basically they would go out to Majorca from Feb - October and then come home for the winter and Xmas. They have been doing this for the past 2 - 3 years.
Also need to think about whether we need to get police clearance from Spain as you mentioned above......

Yes its a 143 PCV and we're Adelaide bound.
Papers were sent just as the Icelandic volcano started spewing ash so not sure how long they will take to confirm receipt and payment received!

If they weren't your parents, and were called Reg and Ron and hung out in East London a bit we have to ask if the Aussies would be bothered about getting a police report for any length of time they had local access to the Spanish banking system. It's a bit easier to view it dispassionately then.
Sorry Kirsti, it's been a dull day creating clever spreadsheets.....
and it is a right pain in the Toyota Aris organising police reports from these places, so I sympathise.The forum has distracted me for long enough
BACK TO WORK.
