    pwede po ba malaman breakdown of cost (roughly) pag apply ng tourist visa?
    plan kasi nmin invite mom in law ko because wife is giving birth next year para magka idea lang at ma prepare na din required docs. TIA! :D

    2 option:
    - tourist visa or sponsored tourist visa.

    normal tourist visa, sila mag apply sa pinas. Papakita nila yung evidence of genuine tourist at kadalasan na invitation letter at affidavit of support.

    Sponsored tourist visa ikaw mag aaply within Australia.
    - ginagawa ito usually kung tingin mo na bka ma denied yung application ng parents mo at naninigurado ka at kailangan ma apporbahan yung VISA.
    - kailangan mo mag bond. Ibabalik sayo bond pag umalis na ng bansa yung parents mo
    - ginagwa din ito ng iba kung yung iniinviteeh walang maipakitang kahit anong ebidensya na kaya nya masustentuhan sarili nya as tourist visa. Kung walang income/business/property or any evirence na maipapakita. Although yung iba nag bibigay lang ng letter of support - tinatanggap naman as normal tourist visa application.

    @icebreaker1928 check mo pa rin benefits ng bluecross pati terms and conditions ng policy. baka kasi if ever kailanganin gamitin ang insurance eh di pala pwede icover lahat. try to get a quote from AU insurers baka may affordable na plans sila for tourist.
