    hello po,
    ask ko lang kung kailangan pa bang magsubmit ng bank statements ng parents ko kahit naman sinabi ko sa invitation letter na ako ang sasagot sa lahat ng gastos nila dito?
    salamat!

    Hello,

    I m from Croatia, student, and I applied for eVisitor visa on 21October. They required documents and I sent them.
    They contacted me again on 07November with additional documents they required and I sent them.
    Since then its been 6 weeks and no one contacted me. I tried to contact them by e mail and telephone but no one answered.
    What should I do? Do you think I ll get visa?
    Thank you

    @Xiaomau82 i just wanted to visit Sydney to stay for holidays maybe to spend a week for NYE next yr, since I still lack the budget so even if I wanted to, (this week for NYE holiday) I'm so sad, that I can't start lodging the necessary requirements. But should I ever save 100k in my bank acc, would that be enough to have a visa grant. And it'll be my first travel abroad is it possible to have a visa granted with no travel history? I'm still a student though 19 yrs of age. Thank you, I just have to have the guts to travel on my own and my dream is to first visit Aus. :-h hope you'd reply, thanks.

    @yummy143 doesn't matter whose immi account (not sure for this) when I did our application I used my immi account for all four of us. yung nga lang family application yun. hindi na ako nag attached ng form as representative ni wife, may question kasi doon if someone else is receiving communications on your behalf. since same location nman kami ni wife sinagot ko na lang na no.

    @yummy143 kong naka group application ka hindi ka dapat new application every names. yung amin nilagay ko lang surname naming as group name.

    dates must be specific. like kelan ka plan punta. lagay mo lng exact date khit di pa confirm plan lang naman.
