Dee & Chad

Here's a guide to help us

Dee and Chad

Hi everyone!

Thank you so much for taking the time to support us on our Partner Visa application!
If you received this, you were asked to fill out a supporting evidence form for us to send to immigration. I've tried to make it as easy for everyone to know what to do and how to do it.

The Form 888 is basically a way for you to tell the Australian Government:

You don't need to write anything complicated.

The best answers are simple, honest and based on your own experiences with us.

What is Form 888?

Form 888 is a supporting statement completed by people who know our relationship.

It helps show:

We are a real couple
We spend our lives together
We are part of each other's families and friend groups
Our relationship is genuine and ongoing

Immigration might get in contact with our main witnesses, so its important to put down the truth and what you'll remember.

We don't need an essay, or made up stories, just sharing what you know.

How to complete the form

Tick off each step as you go.
