Generally, you will not be required to submit any documents with an Expression of Interest.
In some situations, after your Expression of Interest is selected we may ask for documents as part of the verification process. If this is the case you will be contacted by an Immigration Officer to advise what is required.
If you are Invited to Apply after a successful Expression of Interest you will be required to provide supporting documents with your resident visa application.
