If you are lodging a partner visa application in Australia, the Form 888 is one of the most crucial supporting documents you can submit. This document, officially a written statement from a supporting witness, allows people who know both the applicant and their partner to vouch for the authenticity of the relationship. A well-written 888 form adds significant weight to your visa application and helps the Department of Home Affairs assess its genuineness.

在本指南中,我們將為您分析有關 888 表格的所有資訊:誰應該填寫這份表格、如何正確填寫,以及最常見需要避免的陷阱。無論您是簽證申請人,或是提供聲明的朋友或家人,本資源都是為了讓整個夥伴簽證申請過程盡可能清晰簡單而設計。

究竟什麼是 Form 888?

Form 888 是用來支持伴侶簽證或準婚姻簽證申請的正式書面聲明。這包括子類 820/801 和子類 309/100伴侶簽證,以及準結婚簽證(子類 300)。它允許第三方正式聲明他們相信此關係是真實且持續的。

These statements provide vital social evidence to supplement other documentary evidence, like joint financial records or shared living arrangements. They offer personal insight into the day-to-day social dynamics of the relationship and help immigration case officers understand how the couple is viewed by those who know them best. A strong statement helps demonstrate the social aspects of your partnership.

申請伴侶簽證時應至少提交兩份填寫完整的表格,但如果這些表格能為伴侶關係的不同方面提供新的、有價值的見解,則可以包含更多表格。

誰可以填寫 888 表格?

要符合填寫表格 888 的資格標準,輔助證人必須

  • 年滿 18 歲。
  • 親自認識申請人及其伴侶。
  • 對夫婦關係的歷史和性質有直接的瞭解。

Eligible Witnesses (Accepted by the Department)

Not Eligible Witnesses (Common Mistakes)

Family members (parents, siblings, cousins)

Religious leaders (unless authorised)

Friends who are close to the couple

Anyone who is not an Australian citizen or permanent resident

Colleagues and neighbours

Anyone without a formal witnessing authority

Registered Migration Agents / Lawyers

Registered Medical Practitioners (Family Doctors)

It is a common misconception that a witness must be an Australian citizen or permanent resident. This is not the case. Anyone who knows the couple well can complete the form. However, the form does require the witness to state their citizenship or residency status. If the witness is an Australian citizen or an Australian permanent resident, they will need to provide evidence of this, such as a copy of their birth certificate or the identity page of their Australian passport. Witnesses who are not Australian citizens or permanent residents must provide a certified copy of their current passport.

您應該請誰填寫 Form 888?

您的目標應該是混合來自關係雙方的支持證人。理想情況下,您應該包括:

  • 簽證申請人的一名或兩名家庭成員。
  • 澳洲合作夥伴的一名或兩名家庭成員。
  • Friends or colleagues who know you both as a couple.

這樣的平衡可以提供更完整的畫面,對您的社交生活進行連貫的敘述,並顯示社會對來自不同背景的夫婦關係的接受程度。及早聯絡您所選擇的見證人是個好主意,讓他們有充裕的時間填寫表格。

如何填寫表格 888:逐節指南

填寫 Form 888需要注意細節和真誠的個人態度。為使陳述有效,必須準確填寫所有資訊。證人應該用自己的語言撰寫,並根據自己的觀察提供真實的描述。以下是如何有效處理每一部分的方法:

第 1 部分:證人的個人資訊

The witness will need to provide their full legal name, address, contact details, and other personal information. They must also attach identity documents as proof of their identity.

Make sure these details are accurate and up to date. Any inconsistencies may raise red flags and delay the visa application process.

第二部分:您與夫婦的關係

這是證人解釋他們如何認識申請人和保薦人的地方。有力的陳述應包括以下方面的具體例子和細節:

  • 證人第一次見到每個人的時間、地點和方式。
  • 他們認識多久了。
  • 他們接觸的頻率和性質(例如,他們一起參加的社交活動、經常通電話,或以團體名義度假)。

第三部分:您對關係的觀察

This is the core of Form 888, which contains two detailed response questions. The witness must describe in detail why they believe the relationship is genuine and continuing. A detailed, specific answer based on personal observations carries more weight than general statements.

例如,證人可能會描述

  • 夫婦間如何互相支持,包括財務和情感上的支持。
  • 他們對夫婦共同生活、分擔責任的觀察。
  • 他們見證的能顯示承諾的關鍵時刻或共同經歷。
  • 他們對這對夫婦未來共同計劃的瞭解。

第 4 節:其他事項

本節允許見證人說明他們希望補充的任何其他支持申請的事項。這是一個選擇性的問題,但是提供一個深思熟慮的答案,包含反映夫妻承諾的個人軼事或時刻,可以強化伴侶簽證的申請。所提供的資訊必須真實,且以見證人直接看到或聽到的為基礎。

第五部分:見證人簽名

見證人必須在填妥的表格上簽名並註明日期。必須注意的是,根據澳洲法律,表格 888 並非法定聲明。因此,不需要在太平紳士等授權人士面前認證或簽署。

撰寫強力表格 888 的技巧

  • Be specific: General claims like “they have a good relationship” are not enough. It is much better to provide specific examples from your own experience that support your belief.
  • 要誠實:切勿誇大或捏造細節。您的陳述應如實陳述您對這對夫婦的個人瞭解。
  • 要清楚:保持您的語言直白,並以您自己的語氣撰寫,以維持自然的敘事流程。
  • 使用第一手資料:只分享您直接觀察到的或夫婦親口告訴您的資訊。

表格 888 應避免的常見錯誤

即使是強大的合作夥伴簽證申請,也可能因可避免的錯誤而被削弱。小心這些常見錯誤:

  • 留下空白或不完整的部分。
  • 使用含糊的描述或一般的陳述。
  • 忘記在填妥的表格上簽名和填寫日期。
  • 提供過時或不正確的聯絡資訊。
  • 提交太多類似的聲明(質量比數量重要)。
  • 不同證人表格之間的陳述準備不足或不一致。

表格 888 的法律影響

雖然 Form 888 表格並非法定聲明表格,偽證會受到處罰,但它是為了申請簽證而提交給內政部的正式法律文件。提供虛假或誤導資訊屬於嚴重違法行為,可能導致

  • 拒絕簽證申請人的簽證。
  • 申請人和保證人被禁止在未來申請永久簽證。
  • 危及申請人取得澳洲永久居留權的整個移民途徑。

請務必根據事實和個人經驗作出聲明。內政部非常重視這些填寫的表格,任何填寫表格的證人也應該如此。

如何提交填妥的表格 888

正確填寫表格並簽名後:

  • 如果線上申請:將已簽署的 888 表格的高品質掃描副本上傳至申請人的 ImmiAccount。
  • 如果以郵寄方式申請:在您的申請包裹中包含已簽署完成的表格正本。

重要提示:

  • 仔細檢查表格是否完整填寫、簽名和日期。
  • 保留一份副本以作記錄。
  • 將表格與主要簽證申請一起上傳或郵寄,以避免處理延誤。

常見問題

Who is eligible to complete Form 888 for a Partner Visa?

Any person aged 18 or over who personally knows both partners and has first-hand knowledge of their relationship can complete Form 888. This includes family members, friends, colleagues or neighbours, provided they can comment on the genuineness of the relationship.

How many Form 888 declarations do I need to submit with my partner visa application?

The Department of Home Affairs expects at least two completed Form 888 statements. You may submit more if they provide different and meaningful insights into your relationship, but quality is more important than quantity.

Does the witness need to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident?

Yes, that is a mandatory requirement. Anyone who fills out the form must know the couple personally and be an Australian citizen or a permanent resident.

Does Form 888 need to be certified or witnessed?

No. Form 888 is not a statutory declaration and does not need to be witnessed, certified, or signed by an authorised person like a Justice of the Peace. It simply needs to be signed and dated by the witness.

What should a strong Form 888 statement include to support a genuine relationship?

A strong statement includes specific, first-hand observations of the couple’s relationship, such as how they met, how their relationship evolved, how they interact, what their life together is like, how they support each other, and what their plans for the future are. In short, the submitted statements must confirm the relationship is genuine and continuing and have detailed examples (carry far more weight than general statements).

What are the common mistakes to avoid when filling out Form 888?

Some mistakes that visa applicants commonly make are leaving sections incomplete, using generic language, forgetting to sign or date the form, providing incorrect contact details, and submitting multiple statements that all say the same thing without adding new information.

When should I submit Form 888 — with the initial application or can I add it later?

Form 888 should ideally be submitted with the initial partner visa application. It can be added later, but submitting it at lodgment helps avoid delays and allows the case officer to properly assess the relationship from the start.
