This letter confirms that your application has been assessed as a valid application.
Processing your application
Every application received is assessed individually against the criteria in the migration legislation and in
accordance with government priorities. This office conducts a preliminary assessment of applications to
determine whether to refer them to an overseas office of the department. Applications which appear to
require further assessment or interview before a decision can be made will be referred to the responsible
overseas office of the department for further processing. Applications which do not meet the
requirements of the migration legislation on preliminary assessment will be refused by this office.
The time taken for an application to progress and for us to make a decision varies. We will advise you
when your application has been decided.
Please be aware that we may make a decision on your application without requesting additional
information. Therefore you should provide us with all the information you feel is relevant.

Providing information
Your application has been given a file number. This is a number that identifies your application to us.
This number is located at the top of this letter.
When you write to us, you must include your name, date of birth, file number and the name of the office
at which you lodged your application.
We do not usually need original documents; please do not send us original documents unless we ask
you for them. If you send copies of your documents, these should be certified copies.
If we request a document which you do not have or are not able to obtain, you should write to us and
explain the reasons.
The department is committed to maintaining the integrity of the visa and citizenship programs. Please be
aware that providing us with fraudulent documents or claims may result in processing delays, and could
increase the likelihood that your application will be refused.
Translating your documents
If possible documents in languages other than English should be accompanied by an English translation.
The English translations must be official certified translations from a National Accreditation Authority for
Translators and Interpreters (NAATI) accredited translator. Translations provided by non-accredited
translators outside Australia should be endorsed by the translator with their full name, address,
telephone number, and details of their qualifications and experience in the language being translated.
Certified copies
For the purposes of the migration legislation, a copy of an original document must be certified in writing
to be a true copy of the original document by:
if the copy is certified in Australia:
a Justice of the Peace; or
a Commissioner for Declarations; or
a person before whom a statutory declaration may be made under the Statutory Declarations Act
1959 (for example a nurse, legal practitioner, medical practitioner, pharmacist or dentist); or
a registered migration agent (whose registration is not suspended or subject to a caution).
if the copy is certified outside Australia:
a person who is the equivalent of a Justice of the Peace or Commissioner for Declarations in
that place (for example a public notary); or
a registered migration agent (whose registration is not suspended or subject to a caution).
Withdrawing your application
You can withdraw your application at any stage during processing. If you wish to withdraw your
application, you must advise the department in writing. Your advice of withdrawal can include any
number of applicants but must be signed by each person aged 18 years and over.

Changes to your circumstances
You are required to tell us about any changes to your circumstances that may affect any answer to a
question in your application form including your name, passport, contact details, address or family
members as soon as possible. This obligation continues until a decision is made on your visa application,
or, if you are currently outside Australia, until your arrival in Australia. You are required to do this in
writing and can use Form 1022 Notification of changes in circumstances (Section 104 of the Migration
Act 1958), which is available at https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/form-listing/forms/1022.pdf or at any of

our offices. Failure to notify the department of your new circumstances can have serious consequences
and even if the visa you have applied for is granted, it may later be cancelled.
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is the international organisation
responsible for refugees. If you are not permitted to remain in the country where you are living and
believe you cannot return to your home country because you are concerned about your safety, you can
approach the nearest office of the UNHCR to request assistance.
