In the following information, when we say ‘you’ we mean the applicant listed above.
Offshore visa applicants in selected overseas locations need to provide personal identifiers
for their application.
Under section 257A of the Migration Act you are required to provide personal identifiers in
the form of fingerprint scans and/or a digital photograph of your face and shoulders.
You will need to provide the personal identifiers by attending an Australian Biometrics
Collection Centre within 14 calendar days after you are taken to have received this letter.
The only fingerprint scans and facial photographs that will be accepted are those taken by
staff at an Australian Biometrics Collection Centre.
Information about your nearest Australian Biometrics Collection Centre is available on our
website immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-our-requirements/biometrics
If you are unable to provide your personal identifiers within the time we have given, you
should attach a letter explaining the circumstances to your ImmiAccount.
An ‘incapable person’ means a person who is incapable of understanding the general nature
and effect of, and purposes of, a requirement to provide a personal identifier. An example
is a person with intellectual disability. Evidence may need to be provided that they are an
'incapable person'.
A person considered an ‘incapable person' will have a photograph of their face and shoulders
only taken.
The Department will require the presence of a parent or guardian when personal identifiers of
incapable persons are collected.
The provision of personal identifiers is only one of several stages in the visa assessment
process. Providing your personal identifiers can help us to process your application more
quickly.
More detailed information about how your personal identifiers may be used is
available on our website and on our Form 1243i Your personal identifying information:

Yours sincerely
