Who lodges it

It is guidance for a visa applicant (or a member of their family unit) making a family violence claim, and it explains that the statutory declaration itself must be made by the partner of the person alleged to have committed the family violence.

When it is used

It is used by partner-visa applicants seeking to continue an application for permanent residence after a relationship has ended, where they or a member of their family unit have experienced relevant family violence committed by their partner.
