Hi, I'm currently in the process of helping my Thai girlfriend fill up her application form 1419 for a tourist visa to Australia. I myself am not an Australian resident/citizen, and will be travelling to Australia with her together for a short holiday (I'm from Singapore) as tourists. There are a few questions I need some assistance with as I'm not sure how to indicate that we will be travelling together as a couple. For Part B qn 24 (Family travelling to Australia with you), do I indicate that I'll be travelling with her as her boyfriend? Or is 'boyfriend' not a recognized family status?. For Part C qn 25 (Family NOT travelling to Australia with you), the question asks if you have a partner, children or fiancee not travelling with you. Do I therefor include her immediate family members like mom/dad?

Australian Visitor Visa Form

Sponsor will need to lodge it in Australia with form 1149. Which allows multiple entry, you should use form 1419 Application for a Visitor visa – Tourist stream. Visitor Visa (subclass 600) Tourist Stream. A completed form 1419. See: Form 1419Application for a Visitor Visa.

We wish to show that she has immediate family members in Thailand and fully intend to return home. For Part H qn 41 (Funding for stay), I'll be indicating that I'm providing financial support for our trip. Am I supposed to fill up my local address under 'Their address while you are in Australia' or do I fill up the address of the hotel we intend to stay?. For Part J (Assistance with this form), must I indicate that I have given assistance to my girlfriend in filling up the form? Or is it ok to just say she did it herself, which she is fully capable of. Sorry if my questions seem a little elementary. As we have very limited time to finalize our travel arrangements, we fully intend to make sure our application is perfect the first time.

Will greatly appreciate any advice/help with these questions. Thanks in advance!

Will greatly appreciate any advice/help with these questions. Thanks in advance! You are not considered family - correct 2. You only include the family members it asks for - children and spouse etc 3.

Your local address in Singapore 4. Indeed include your name if you are assisting with the form Are you providing a comprehensive letter of support as well?

Also include in Part H qn 40 that you are providing the support. Note: family ties, whilst important, doesnt really carry much weight. Thanks so much for your reply. Yes I will be indicating I'm providing financial support and including a comprehensive letter detailing our relationship the past year along with photos of us on various trips around Asia together and celebrating family occasions such as parents/nephews birthdays and her graduation. She will also be showing proof that she just recently bought a new Honda accord in Bangkok last year as her owned asset.

For my part, I understand I have to include proof that I can support her financially for the trip. Is my income tax statement showing my income for the last financial year ($55000) sufficient or do I HAVE to provide my bank statement?

I ask this as although I'm fully capable of supporting us financially, I do not currently have a lot of cash in my bank Acc due to various transactions relating to my business, such as providing loans/payments for my clients before they transfer me the money (large 5 fig sums). We are going to submit her visa application on Wednesday and the cash will not be in my bank Acc by then.

You do not mention her. You are not travelling together. She should give you a letter of invitation and support. If you have a child at home, then answer yes.

Is it really that confusing. A child at home is a valid reason for you to return, so this is a good thing. In this same question you mention your wife. But I would attach a covering letter that clearly states that your wife (include marriage cert) is in Australia (quote her passport number and visa grant number) but your child (include translated copy of birth certificate) remains in home country and is very much missed.
