Statutory Declaration Guide
Family relationship declarations.
Family visas allow eligible relatives of Australian citizens, permanent residents and eligible New Zealand citizens to live in Australia. Most pathways require detailed identity and relationship evidence, with certified translations where documents are not in English.
Family visa pathways include parent visas, child visas, remaining relative visas and aged dependent relative visas. Eligibility requirements and processing times vary significantly between subclasses.
Supporting documents commonly include birth and marriage certificates, identity documents and statutory declarations. Documents in a language other than English typically require a NAATI-certified translation. Common documents requiring certified translation include the birth certificate, marriage certificate, and passport.
