My Tourist Visa was Denied

Is there any possible way that my Tourist Visa will be granted even though I am jobless here in the Philippines? My fiancé will sponsor everything.

    The reason states that the applicant is currently unemployed and have provided no evidence of ongoing work commitments and income. :(

    @sandygirl28 Your application must have fallen into the hands of a strict officer. You can always try to reapply. Just curious, did you ask your fiance to provide evidence(s) of his financial capacity?

    One way of proving your financial capacity if unemployed is to provide evidences of real properties and/or bank certificates and statements with enough funds to support you on the duration of your visit.

    @sandygirl28 what evidence you provided for families ties in Philippines as proof that you will be coming back. We applied for my sister as well. No documents related to employment as she just resigned. We attached family ties like bro sis dad and mom who are here in Phils. she got approved.

    @sandygirl28 looking at your situation, kulang ka nga sa home country ties. on how you can prove that you are coming back to Phils after your visit. Magsama ka ng intention letter and also sample itinerary so they can see how you will spend your time in Australia on your supposed vacation dates. Apply ka lang ulit and make sure na mas malaki iyong percentage ng home ties mo kesa sa ties mo sa Australia.

    Hmm. Hindi kaya na red flag din yung may 1M savings ka pero you state na jobless ka?

    So maybe also provide a history of your employment or source of income to back up yung source ng savings mo. It might help.
