Real Example: Form 888 Supporting Witness Statement for Australian Partner Visa

When I applied for my Australian Partner Visa, one of the trickiest parts was helping our friends figure out how to fill out Form 888. It’s not always easy to know what to say or how much detail to include—so I’m sharing one of the actual witness statements from my successful application to help make things easier for you.

This document includes a real-life example of answers to the three key questions asked in Form 888—the statutory declaration made by a supporting witness.

✅ What’s Inside:

You’ll receive a PDF containing the actual responses provided by one of my supporting witnesses.

The answers address the following required sections of Form 888:

• 👥 How the witness knows the applicant and their partner/fiancé, and the frequency of contact
• 💬 Whether the witness believes the relationship is genuine and continuing—with clear reasoning
• 📝 Any additional comments to support the visa application

Even though every relationship and witness is different, seeing how someone else approached these questions can help spark ideas, guide tone, and reduce the overwhelm.
