    @shrek43 - you can proceed with your application no issues with passport < 2years valdity..
    you can renew later anytime, while application is in progress or even pag approved na ang visa.. you just need to inform DIAC sa changes ng passport number if ever..

    Normally it will say on your application if your Passport is valid or not ...

    I mean it will state that passport needs not to be less than X months or x years .. if you think it is not valid then made some changes or plans ...

    strikto ang AU immigration sa requirements .. better safe than sorry

    Ngayun lang kasi ako nagbasa ng booklet...it says there na recommended ay more than two years ang passport validity at the time na mag-lodge ng visa application...Sana hindi talaga sya required na ganun.
