Online Immigration Forms

Australian visa forms can be downloaded online, which is undoubtedly the fastest, easiest way to get them. The Australian Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA) has a website that offers many online services, forms, and booklets. The site is at http://www.immi.gov.au, and is easy to navigate.

Available Forms and Booklets

Migration forms are available from migration agents and their websites, as well as from Australian embassies, consulates, and high commissions, and their websites. In the DIMIA site, click on "Online services, forms & booklets," which will take you to "Forms and Booklets." You have several choices, but clicking on the alphabetical listing of forms and booklets will direct you to a page that will get you to migration information if you click on "M."

Forms for various migration applications include business skills (permanent) (47BU), business skills (provisional) (47BT), employer sponsored (47ES), and general skilled person (47SK). Forms for migration of a child (47CH), parent (47PA), and other family members (47OF) can be located in this alphabetical category as well. Other forms are available for special migration and a contributory parent.

This is also the spot to order booklets on important business and employment migration topics: business skills entry, general skilled migration, and employer sponsored migration. Family subjects are well-covered as well: child migration, parent migration, and other family migration. Partner migration and special migration each has its own coverage.
