Consent to grant an Australian visa to a Filipino child under the age of 18 years

Form 1229

Who should use this form?

Where Filipino children under 18 years of age intend to travel to Australia, their non-accompanying parent(s) or person(s) with parental responsibility (anyone who can lawfully determine where the child/children is/are to live) may be required to sign a consent form to give permission for the Filipino child/children to be granted an Australian visa for the purpose of travel to stay temporarily or permanently in Australia.

If one parent, or person(s) with parental responsibility, has lawfully been made solely responsible for making decisions as to where the Filipino child/children is/are to live, then only that parent or person needs to sign the consent form.

How to complete this form:

Form 1229 must be completed in English. The completed and signed form (Parts A and B) and any additional documentation should be sent to the office nominated in your application.

You must attach to this form:

• a certified copy of the child’s/children’s birth certificate(s), (if it is not already lodged with the application.);

• a certified copy of the personal details page of the non-accompanying parent’s, or person(s) with parental responsibility’s passport, driver’s licence, National Identity Card (ID card) or birth certificate; and

• a certified copy of any relevant evidence making you solely responsible for making decisions about where the child/children is/are to live (if applicable).

To clearly understand the requirements and procedures to process this and other immigration forms to Australia from the Philippines contact RESPALL Migration Australia and get professionally assessed to ensure that you are applying for the correct visa and are following the correct protocols, in doing so.
