Australian supporters must agree to the terms and conditions before submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI). Please ensure the potential visa applicant understands and accepts these terms before clicking AGREE.

These conditions apply to any of the processes or services undertaken or provided by an APO. Australian supporters agree that by submitting this EOI and by continuing to engage with an APO, they have deemed to have accepted these terms and conditions, which may be varied from time to time by the Department of Home Affairs.

1. An EOI will only be accepted where the Australian Supporter has completed the declaration prior to the submission (near the end of the EOI form).
2. All questions must be answered.
3. No third party EOIs will be accepted (e.g. applications completed by migration agents).
4. APOs do not guarantee, warrant or represent that the submission of an EOI or the collection of additional information is indicative of your inclusion in the Community Support Program.
   5a. Pending the outcome of an EOI, financial and character assessments will be undertaken to further assess your suitability for the CSP and your capacity to enter into the Assurance of Support agreement.
   5b. The employability of the applicant/s and your capacity to find employment for the applicant and ability to engage with the APO to facilitate the same will also be assessed.
5. Any personal information or material contained in your EOI is subject to AMRC’s Privacy Policy. The respective Privacy Policy forms part of these terms and conditions.
6. EOIs will only be accepted where the Australian sponsor/ supporter has completed the EOI online form and made the online EOI payment of $280 (at end of the EOI form). The $280 EOI fee is non-refundable, regardless of the outcome of your EOI.
7. All fees paid to the AMRC and the Department of Home Affairs up to the time of the refusal of the visa application will not be refunded. 

• meet the eligibility requirements for CSP
• be a resident of South Australia – AMRC is NOT accepting Expressions of Interest from INTERSTATE proposers.
• meet financial requirements for sponsorship (this includes visa application charges, APO fees and Assurance of Support)
• answer all EOI questions honestly. Where misleading information is provided, the EOI will be rejected.
  NOTE: Providing misleading information at any stage of the process will result in disqualification from the CSP process, and any fees paid may not be refunded.
• have one clear sponsor, who will be responsible throughout the process. Changing sponsors at any stage of the CSP process will result in disqualification from the process and any fees paid may not be refunded.
• provide
  – proof of residence status (e.g. Australian Passport, Citizenship Certificate, or Visa),
  – a valid driver’s licence, and
  – Notice of Assessment for the two most recent financial years.
• settle the applicant(s) in South Australia for their first 12 months in Australia. If, after applicants’ arrival in Australia, the sponsor chooses to settle the applicant(s) interstate, the bond money will not be refunded.
• cooperate and communicate with AMRC throughout the application and settlement process.

EOIs are valid for a maximum of 6 months from the date of lodgement. If an EOI becomes invalid, the sponsor will need to lodge a new EOI, if he/she still wishes to be considered for the program.
