Ashlenelouise Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 So as I have sent off anmac skills assessment rather then sitting and waiting I thought I might as well get some of mine and my partners documents ready for the 189 .. When the time comes .. I'm a bit of an OCD organiser so I like to have things prepared for when they ask for them I can just upload them. so me and my partner have been together 4 years and lived together for two .. I am just wondering what kind of evidence should we collate ? I have been on his car insurance for 2 years so we have the Certs for that. We both have a joint bank account but We do a lot of online banking so all our statements are online rather then paper - should I just print them off ? We we also have our own personal bills so he pays sky I pay water ? But I don't think I we have all 2 years worth of bills. I also have a catalogue statement but again it's all online ? And I also have a savings account addressed to the house and a graduate account ( all also online) does pictures from like Facebook signed and dated by both of us also confirm we have been in a relation ship? Should we we get friends / family to do character references? I just don't know what else to get to support our continuing relationship ....HELP thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annjean Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 I know people that have actually had a photo album made up with photos of them both and dates they were taken, especially holiday snaps, letters from friends to support your quest and why you should be able to come to aus together. A general letter from yourselves stating when met etc and plans for your future together in oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyLeB Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 DIBP specifically state that the don't want to see loads and loads of photos, skype/phone transcripts as it is not considered as evidence that your relationship is genuine and ongoing. Joint tenancy agreement, joint liabilities home/car insurance/ joint bank accounts, wills. https://www.immi.gov.au/media/fact-sheets/35relationship.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Statements from members of both families are good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verystormy Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 You only need to establish de facto for the last 12 months. The bank statements will be good. The bills, even though in different names are good as they are for the same address. So establishes both parties are living at the same address. The car insurance will also be good. The fact things are on line won't be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Does anyone know if the statements made by partners and family have to be on a special form and witnessed? are there any other forms that need to be submitted for defacto on 189 visa?
