Hi, the form needs to be attached to the child's visa application via the ImmiAccount. The form is found here immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/form-listing/forms/1229.pdf 🙂
So where do we stand where grandparent/s have been given guardianship and parental responsibility through a court order in order to obtain a visitor visa for my granddaughter. We already have a current e visitor valid visa. But need one for granddaughter under our care.
Hi, my 7 years old child will be travelling with me and my husband. We are her boliological parents. I will create immi account for my child. If form 1229 is not required, then what other documents need to be uploaded into my child’s immi account?
My son below 18 yrs has been invited to participate in sporting event in Brisbane through invitationletter. Do i have to fill this consent form..and is there any other video to show what all other documents are required..regards
Yes, if both parents are not travelling with the under 18 applicant, both parents need to complete the from 1229. Look at the visa checklist for the visa you are applying for the other documents.
Hello sir, my wife and I received an e-visa: (eVisitor subclass 651) on November 19, 2023, we would also like to apply for a visa for our 2.5-year-old daughter.We have a flight in March. We have a request for form 1229 - we need to fill it out together and provide the TRN number in box in the upper corner - is it enough from one parent, if so, from which one? How to send this form later, and where, as I cannot find the option to add this document anywhere. Is the child's birth certificate - a scan or photo is also enough, where should I get it? also add and whether you need to attach any other documents, e.g. a photo or scan of your driving license. How to add all these documents and where to find such an option to add. Do I also need to apply for an e-visa (eVisitor subclass 651) for my daughter to add her documents or is there any other option. Thank you in advance
Make sure to attach the birth certificate to the child's application. If there is no father on the BC, then the case officer should be able to see it and the form 1229 should not be required. The application will proceed accordingly, if not, the case officer will email you.
Thanks for the video.. please can you advise that the document says certifed copies.. do we need to get non accompanying parent to have passport certified ? Thank youv
@ausvisaimmidiscussion hello Me and my partner are currently working here in Australia and we want our daughter to come and visit us. She is 7 years old and she will be accompanied by my sister in law and my bro we still need the 1229 Form ?
Hi, very helpful video, thanks. My daughter will be travelling to Australia alone for 6 weeks and the visa has already been approved. Does she also need the Form 1229? The visa is finalised and no further documents can be attached.
How to attach form 1229(request information) or document after submit application? I can't find button " I confirm I have provided information as requested "
Hello, I got granted an eVisitor (subclass 651) visa for me and my son under age 18 (both French nationals) to travel for a week as tourists in Australia. Notice that there is no specific message in the eVisitor granted telling me I should consider filling in the Form 1229. Also, the Form 1229 (2020 version) says on the first page: "Note: This form is not for the use of Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) or eVisitor applicants who are under 18 years of age." I will travel with my son but his mother will not accompany us, so it seems I do need her to fill and sign the Form 1229, though, plus the translated birth certificate. Is it correct? Do we need the Form 1229 + certified birth certificate in our case? Thank you
Hello sir, Am currently in Australia planing to apply new 482 again including my wife and son who are currently in living with me in Australia. Question: do i need to submit 1229 And form 80 need for each applicant?
Hello.I am grad to see your how to things about the way to complete Form 1229. My 16-years old daugther will travelling herself to Australia and this video might help a lot. Thank you. Please tell me if you know but I(my daugther)have to apply Australia ETA by using iphone application. I wonder how to attach this form 1229? Do I have to scan and download or something??
Hi Kazumi, if the department requires the form 1229, they will request it after lodgment via email with instructions on how to send it through the ImmiAccount. Good Luck.
Sir a mom didn't attached this form with her visa application with her daughter but she got visa and Ambassador called her advocate and asked to fill this form and send. The question is will her daughter get visa and if yes. Then how many days will it take for whole process
Hello, I cant speculate if the visa will be granted or how long it will take for the decision. If the only thing outstanding is the 1229 form then I would suggest to submit it as soon as possible so the processing can continue. Good luck.
How does the parent get their ID verified? Just an official verification in their home country? Does it need to be translated into English? Also the child is going to study at primary school, do you tick temporary or permanent stay, or both in this instance? Thanks
Its best to attach a colour copy of the Passport biodata page, it should be in English and show the parent(s) signature(s), as well as the child's birth certificate. Nothing else is required.

IF TWO CHILDREN IS TRAVELLING WITH ONE PARENT, DO NEED TO FILL TWO 1229 FORMS ? WHICH TARNSACTION REF NUMBER HAS TO BE USED IN THE 1229 APPLICATION ? IS IT THE PARENT WHO TRAVELLING OR THE KID ?
hye, i happened to found your video while searching for this form 1229 matter. i am divorced and hold a custody for my son with valid doc from court. my ex are no longer contacting my son after we divorce. never even give any child support or even care about his school enrollment. and i have no current contact either because he has changed his number. do i still need to ask him to sign the form 1229 in order for my son's to get his visa application? we are planning to travel to oz with my mom, my son and i.
If you have sole custody as stated on a court document, you do not need to get the other parents signature on the 1229 form. Make sure to attach the court document with the 1229 form as evidence.
Whats the Address that we have to provide under Parents section? Is the current address or the address in passport ? In our case we are staying in a rented apartment. Please help here

Hello there! An underage child whose parents (Mother on Study Visa and Father on Dependent Visa) are in Australia, wants to visit her parents on a Tourist visa accompanied by a legal guardian (Father's own sister). 1. In this case, what other forms are to be filled in apart from Form 1229. Does the legal guardian need to fill in the 1257 form when the child ' will be staying with her parents during her stay' and the form 1257 says that the 'Child should not be staying with one or both her parents or legal guardians or relatives). 2. Do we need to sign a self-declaration or something by the accompanying guardian undertaking the to and fro Australia responsibilities? 3. Also, do the parents who are already in Australia need to give a declaration that they authorise the accompanying person as the legal guardian. Please guide. Thank you in advance! Regards.
Hi Kancha, if both parents are in Aus and the child will be staying with them while in Aus, then a 1257 will not be required. Make sure to attach the evidence that both parents are in Aus and the department can also check their systems too. Yes, also write the self-declaration for the department and airline that child is allowed to travel with the Aunty. If anything further is required they (department) will ask you to provide/attach it. Good Luck.

They usually give 7 days to provide the 1229. If that's the only thing outstanding then you should have a decision soon after that.
