About this copy
Original factual summaries describing what each official form is for and who lodges it. No form fields, layout or text are reproduced; the official PDF remains the only form.
Platform-authored navigation; no lawyer or registered migration agent reviewed this catalogue. It does not assess eligibility, points or suitability for any person.
Purpose
This form is used to add a further person to a visa application that has already been lodged but not yet decided, where the relevant visa allows applicants to be added after lodgement. It captures the new person's details and supports any applicable charge.
Who lodges it
The main applicant on the original visa application (or a representative acting for them) submits it to add a dependent child or partner.
When it is used
Used after a visa application has been lodged and before a decision is made, when an eligible additional applicant (typically a partner or dependent child) is to be included in that existing application.
