Hey,

I have a really long list of friends and family and cannot remember exactly what date everybody met my partner. What should I do? Should I write a date that is around the time they met? Or just write unknown ?

Thanks

I only included my very closest friends (total of 9) and closest/immediate family members (e.g. parents, siblings) rather than listing everybody. Where I couldn't remember the specific date, I put the month and year and included an explanatory note that I couldn't remember the specific date but it was during that month.

(I definitely wouldn't put "unknown" - that doesn't add any value to your application and they'd expect you to have a rough idea, rather than no idea.)

Hope this helps!

You really only need to fill in the spaces provided on the form. You don't need to keep going on an additional sheet.

There is no space provided for this question and it states to use a separate sheet of paper. IMM5285 - Question 4.

That is an inland form. OP is applying outland and those forms have a set amount of spaces to list family/friends.
