Dear, Love Story Writer!!
The most important document in any Australian Partner visa application are the couples Relationship Statements.
Let me explain why.
There are 50,000 Australian Partner Visas submitted each year to the Australian government.
In simple language, this means that at any given point in time, the department case officer that eventually looks at your application will also be assessing many other couples simultaneously.
This may sound harsh, but this makes your Partner visa application just another number in a sea of applications.
This is what I call an 'inconvenient truth' that couples need to keep in mind when looking into submitting an Australian Partner visa.
And there's another big one.
Which is that...
The onus is on you as a couple to convince a DHA case officer (who is human, has their own prejudices, personal afflictions and opinions) that you meet the legal criteria for the approval of your Partner visa. There is no automatic entitlement.
Put simply, it is your obligation to convince the case officer with your information and supporting documentation.
So what is the case officer really looking for when reviewing through your case?
Well, in legal terms, they are assessing you against the definition of spouse, defacto and for Prospective Marriage Visa applicants specifically, also having an intention to marry.
In simple language however, they are looking at your relationship facts, timeline, plans for your future and documentary evidence to determine the strength, commitment and genuineness of your relationship.
Now, the reality is that every couple knows they need to provide certain items to support their application...
Meaning a case officer would have seen these documents countless times before they even look at your versions!
Your Relationship Statements!
But what exactly is a relationship statement?
Well, think of a relationship statement as your cover letter to your entire application.
If written correctly, it will tell your love story to the Department case officer.
When I say love story I mean that it will put forward your relationship history, key milestones and importantly, talk about the four main aspects of the relationship that will be assessed by the case officer, in one concise, yet extremely powerful document.
Visually, it should look something like this...
To put this into perspective, in my 10 odd years working as an Immigration Lawyer, I have helped hundreds of couples get their Australian Partner visas approved, so I humbly have to say that I know what is required to get an Australian Partner visa approved.
In fact, at my law firm, Salvo Migration, we have a Booklet dedicated to showcasing our Partner visa approvals secured over the last 6+ years which you can view by clicking below...

And in each and every single successful case one of the first things we ever worked on was the writing of their relationship statements.
I did this because I knew how important their statements would be to the overall success of their application.
-
Some couples didnt know what to write about (i.e. they didnt know where to start, or, they wrote pages worth of their love story but did not sufficiently talk about their history, timeline, milestones or aspects of their relationship - being the legal criteria for the Partner visa. Put simply, they wrote too much about the wrong things and not enough about the right things).
-
Some couples didnt know how to write or structure their statements and they were, nicely put, a complete mess!
-
Some couples would take a very long time to write their statements (despite me repeatedly (and gently) asking how they were going with them...)
However, initially I started to see some reoccuring problems...
So I thought that there had to be a better way of doing this...
And so, a few years ago I started to work on an internal resource that would act as a guide for our clients to use when writing their relationship statements.
We still wanted to ensure our clients wrote their statements properly, but I also wanted to give them a solution to these problems, and ultimately, help them write their statements better, and quicker.
I thought the most logical starting point was to look at our previously approved client Partner visa cases to see how their statements were written...
From there, we were able to consolidate the most important features of these statements into a 10 Point Optimization Framework.
solving the problem of what to write in their statements.
But there were still those other problems left unresolved.
So, we then took the past Relationship Statements we were analysing (again from recent successful cases) and re-wrote them ourselves.
We of course removed all sensitive information, but we kept true to the original structure, flow and feeling of the initial versions, and in doing so, developed 10 x Examples to give to our clients modelled from 5 x successful Partner visa applications (i.e. we gave them an example of an Applicants Statement and Sponsors Statement)
solving the problem of how to write their statements.
Lucky last, we also wanted to find a way to get our clients writing their statements faster whilst at the same time, ensuring they maintained their quality.
With that objective in mind, we also created a Ready to Go Word Template, which ensured clients would follow a pre-set structure. All they had to do was start typing and they on their way to perfect relationship statements in half the time it would normally take...
solving the final problem of clients taking a very long time to write their statements.
We pieced all of these individual elements together and started giving it to our clients. We even gave it a name...
The Perfect Relationship Statement Guide & Template Pack™ 😊
And so, for a very long time, this resource was our little SECRET at Salvo Migration!
Then, recently, I decided to make this resource available to the general public for purchase as I knew it would be helpful to anyone looking to prepare their Australian partner visa.
