Information Collection for Special Circumstance Visa

What it is for

This form gathers the biographical and ancestry information the Department of Home Affairs needs to assess a person under the Special Circumstance visa arrangements, including matters connected to Papua New Guinea and citizenship history.

Who completes it

The person seeking assessment (the applicant). A separate form is completed by each person being assessed, though children may in some cases be included on a parent's form.

Information it collects (in general terms)

Personal identity and contact details, other names used, citizenship held, and Australian entry history, together with detailed family history covering the applicant's parents, grandparents and great-grandparents, and declarations relevant to the application.

When it is used

Used when a person applies for, or is being assessed for, a Special Circumstance visa and needs to provide identity, citizenship and multi-generation family-history information to support that assessment.
