Does the Sydney Office provide a postal service for visa applications or do I need to apply in person? I live in regional NSW and can't find much information about how to apply by post online.

You need to contact the visa office in advance to see if they can provide post-application service for you as some citizens in Tasmania can enjoy the service but not all. If not available, the office also have post-back service and you need to submit application in person to the office.
