Form 888s – How many to use?
What’s the minimum and maximum number of Form 888s that you can provide?
On the online partner visa application form, the details of two witnesses to your relationship are required to be listed. These witnesses will be completing Form 888s.
So, a minimum of two people are required to complete Form 888s that you then (electronically) attach to your partner visa application.
If two people is the minimum, can you get more than two people to complete Form 888s? – yes you can.
In fact, it is very helpful to use more than two people for Form 888s. Couples in genuine relationships can often get six, eight, or even more, strong and useful form 888s.
Who can complete form 888s?
Form 888s can be completed by family, friends, work colleagues, etc.
It’s best to mix it up – use some family members (of both partners), some friends from each of you, maybe a work colleague or two that knows you both.
People completing Form 888s don’t have to be Australian Citizens or Australian permanent residents. Also, they can be living outside Australia.
So, don’t feel that you have to limit yourself to just supplying two Form 888s – in fact, it’s almost always better to provide more – providing that they are all truthful and genuine.
