- What it is for
- This is an information sheet explaining how to complete a statutory declaration in support of a family violence claim under the family violence provisions of the Migration Regulations 1994. It guides the reader rather than collecting data itself.
- Who completes 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.
- Information it collects (in general terms)
- As an instruction sheet it does not collect applicant data; it explains the regulatory definition of relevant family violence, the kinds of judicial and non-judicial evidence that may be provided, and the general content a statutory declaration should set out depending on who the alleged victim is.
- 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.
