ORIGINAL POSTER
Hey guys any suggestions on this. I am currently needing to prove my location in Australia for dtv application however the immigration office is asking for a stamp on my passport showing that I’ve entered Australia as I applied for the dtv when I wasn’t in the country. Australia doesn’t do physical stamps they do it electronically.

I’ve applied to get record of movement from Australian immigration but they are taking for ever, are there any other ways of proving my location?

Cheers

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is trying to prove their location in Australia for a Thai DTV application but faces issues because the immigration office requires a passport stamp showing their entry into Australia, which they state Australia does not provide physically. They have requested a record of movement from Australian immigration but are experiencing delays. Commenters clarify that the requirement is for the most recent Thai immigration stamp, not for Australian entry, and suggest alternatives like using utility bills or driver's licenses to show their current address.

Its a simple question a clear photo of your last entry stamp in to Thailand nothing else

you should be in Australia when you first applied and still there now. They ask for a simple request to show the stamps in your passport.

So which country are you in now?

Use a utility bill and a driver's license that shows your physical address

They're asking for your Thailand stamp, not the Australian one.

Follow the rules and you won't have any problems...

Your application location, stamp, and travel story is as convoluted as your ability to comprehend the consulate request. Get your ducks and stamps in a row.

the Thai Consulate in Sydney is asking for THAI immigration Entry/Exit ink stamps from Thailand and NOT Australian immigration Entry/Exit ink stamps from Australia

if you go to the Australian Border Force counters after the immigration gates (there should be a large group of Border Force officers, then anyone can ask for Australian Entry/Exit ink stamps in their passport

Do note, these Australian Border Force counters are BEFORE Baggage Claim carousels, but after the immigration gates

It sounds like you applied in Australia and then left Australia. You can't do that
John *******
So you applied when you were out of country and now are in Australia or are you not yet in Australia?

They are asking for a picture of the immigration stamp when you went into Thailand

It's asking you for your most recent Thai immigration stamp not one from Australia

@Jeremy *****
In examinations, you are constantly advised to read the question.

@Paul *******
the question being, "where is your Thai entry stamp?"
