How to sign Form 80

[Mohamed]

Dear MysticRiver
Actually I need your help in getting some light on how to sign the form 80 at page 17 if I filled up the whole pages by the keyboard. I tried to remove this page and replace it by a scanned signed one but, however the both forms are protected against removing nor replacing any page. Please advise me
Thanks in advance.

Is it crucial to fill it up by hand page after another or having it filled by keyboard does not affect its outcomes with the CO?

Mohamed,

I think I can help you.

I splitted the Form 80 into different PDF pages using http://smallpdf.com/split-pdf

Then, signed the last page (by hand), created a scanned pdf version of it, and finally merged it with the Form 80 (original) using http://www.pdfmerge.com, creating a unique pdf (Form 80 modified).

I hope this helps.

Dear Marcos
I highly appreciate your rapid response here and I would say that do think manipulating the original 80 form via different software programs could excite any type of suspicion with DIBP.

You are not manipulating anything. You are just segregating it. All they care is the information inside, as long as you provide the correct information in correct format, nobody'll care.

Thanks a million Marcos

Hey Mohamed,

Mystic is completely right. We are not manipulating or changing nothing wrong. Those softwares are online and free. Also, please notice that DIBP suggests us to keep files (pdf, etc) under 5Mb. This is due possible using some kind of PDF tool.

Good luck with your application, any quesiton pass them to us.

Hey MysticRiver- I am really confused whether to say Yes or No to Q. 47 Do you have any personal contacts in Australia? I have one but don't want to mention as these are private info. If I say, 'No'- Am I hiding something to DIBP?

 

[MysticRiver]

Shouldn't be any issue, unless he/she is your close relative. Even for the latter case, I don't think it will matter, but I would mention unless there is a real issue with that. Any information you submit to DIBP is fully confidential, and in Australia, confidentiality is a really big deal.

You can do it on her behalf.

And how do i add my details as a sponser in that i mean 40sp form

Once you submit the application, you'll have a document checklist for all the required documents and a place to upload them.

Hi. Can I put a lowercase letter in filling up places like an address?
Also, if the space is not sufficient, can I partially fill it up and put an explanation in additional info part?

 

[MysticRiver]

Can I put a lowercase letter in filling up places like an address?

No, it is clearly written in Form 80

Please use a pen, and write neatly in English using BLOCK LETTERS.

Also, if the space is not sufficient, can I partially fill it up and put an explanation in additional info part?

Yes, you can use section T of Form 80. If you still need more space, you can attach separate pages at the end.
