One of the Aussie visas is clearly from Canada, doesn't bode well for their grasp of geography. edit: see below. I didn't read it right.

- chrismorgan 5y agoI presume you’re talking of https://worldservice.org/visas/2/Usa_Australia.jpg https://worldservice.org/visas/2/Usa_Australia.jpg. Yes, it has a 1998 Canadian stamp in the top half, but it also has a 1999 Australian stamp on the lower half. A departure stamp, incidentally, which I imagine could be less picky about what they stamp, and marked Hamilton Island, a fairly small tourist place. I dunno, did Hamilton Island Airport perhaps do some international flights back then? It looks to be domestic-only now.
- marcus_holmes 5y agoThanks for the correction, I didn't spot that at all. I know that Australian immigration match passports at both ends of trips - I'm dual-national and if I don't get the right passport at the desk they ask me for the other one. So I would suspect this is domestic and the stamp is a vanity thing.
