- Effective 08.02.2010, Label free evidence for non-permanent visas:
Australia's modern electronic visa system does not require you to have a visa label placed in your passport to confirm your immigration status and entitlements in Australia. When you check in to fly to Australia, the airline staff will electronically confirm that you have authority to travel to Australia prior to you boarding the aircraft.The visa is linked to the passport number that you provided in your application. If you obtain a new passport after visa grant, you should advise the department of the new passport details. If you do not provide us with the details of any new passport, you may experience delays at the airport and may be denied permission to board your flight to Australia.

- 15.10.2007: Important changes have been made to Australian visa application forms. From 15th October, applicants aged 18 years and over are required to sign an Australian Values Statement when applying for selected visas. The statement requires certain visa applicants to confirm that they will respect the Australian way of life and obey the laws of Australia before being granted a visa. All provisional, permanent and a small number of temporary visa applicants are required to have read (or had explained to them) the Life in Australia booklet before signing the statement. For all other temporary visa applicants the Australian Values Statement is included in the general declarations section of their application form. Copies of the Life in Australia booklet can be obtained from www.immi.gov.au. Updated visa application forms containing the new statement are also available from www.immi.gov.au or at the Australian Visa Application Centre.
