In this note, we investigate partition congruences for a certain type of partition function, which is named as the overcubic partition pairs in light of the literature. Let $\bar{cp}(n)$ be the number of overcubic partition pairs. Then we will prove the following congruences: $$\bar{cp}(8n+7){\equiv}0(mod\;64)\;and\;\bar{cp}(9m+3){\equiv}0(mod\;3)$$.
