xerostar Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 My TGF is applying for a 3 month tourist visa to Australia, hopefully departing on 26th January. Wishing to make this process as painless as possible we are trying to "get it right in one go". My previous experience with immigration has always proved to be a most frustrating and disappointing exercise when I was forced to return multiple times in order to get every document they require. After reading everything it's apparent that a Police Clearance Certificate is required if one is applying for Immigration or a long stay in Australia. However I can't find a reference saying whether a PCC is needed for a 3 month Tourist Visa, or not. My TGF has no criminal history and she has worked in the same job for the last 7 years. She has been married and was divorced about 6 years ago. Also it appears the Australian Embassy has to issue a request for the certificate before you go to the police centre? Not sure if this is true .. Anyone know the answers or had recent experience in this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
