How did you pay for online visa application?

ShayShey

Hello guys, I had this question on my mind and I tried searching sa mga discussions dito sa forum pero wala akong makita.

Based sa DIAC page:

Acceptable payment methods for online applications are:

MasterCard

VISA

American Express

Diners Club

JCB

So I assume this is through credit card... may other options ba?

In my case, if ever na dumating un time na mag lodge ako ng application, I need to pay 7040AUD. That is approximately 300k php... pwede ba mag pa increase ng credit limit up to 300k, I think na mahihirapan kami because currently less than 50k lang credit limit namin. 😃

You can overpay sa CC mo, in our case we have 39k limit and paid 125k para macover yung visa charge during our time. hope this helps. Thanks!

Ang ginawa ko dito sa SG pinunduhan ko yng debit card ko (around aud 7k).then nung pagbayad ko nareject so tumawag kaagad ako sa banko requesting to increase my credit limit. They temporarily increased my credit limit to 8k then after 5 minutes (as advised), tinry ko magbayad, ayun pumasok na.

@rguez06 & @ sinli_au, maraming salamat sa info... nagtry kami mag inquire sa BDO kaso nirefer kami sa hotline... 🙂)

@ShayShey - this is also my probem, 3 dependents din meron ako, wife & 2 kids. sa BDO, kelangan mg-apply ng bagong CC with higher limit, di daw pwede iincrease. mgttake ng mga 2 weeks to process pa. Interested sna ako sa over-payment, kaso may extra charge b yn? pano papasok yng CC mo if let's say limit lng is 100k?

one more thing, d po ba hindi naman kaagad binabayaran lahat nung visa charge? for principal applicant muna, pag approved na, saka papabayaran ung para sa mga dependents, right!

binabyaran lahat ng application fee..

baka eto yung sinasabi mo.. 2nd installment fee for secondary applicants na walang proof of functional english..

iba po yan sa application fee.

i thought ung base application charge na $3,520 muna ang babayaran at bago pa man ma-approve ung visa, ska need lang bayaran ung para sa mga dependents. un pala sabay na ang bayad lahat? eh di sobrang sayang pala ang pera kung ma-rerefuse lang? 🙁

Ganun talaga... Mejo mabigat na nga ngayon.

We ask for temp increase on our credit card, way back 2007 it was 2k $ only

ShayShey

@sherneb nako di pa ako nagchecheck ulit sa BDO kasi waiting pa lang naman ako sa ea result ko... advance planning lang sana.... at dahil na invite ka na... ikaw ang mauuna mag bayad... pagnagkataon ako ang hihingi ng advise sau... 😃

Congrats nga pala!

@wizz thanks! i'll always remember that...

sinli_au

ganyan din pumasok sa isip ko dati pro anjan na eh, isipin mo na lang na mas sobrang sayang kung hindi mo itinuloy eh nasa visa lodging ka na. medyo mabigat sa atin kasi inabutan tayo ng fee inclusion sa dependents (wife + 3 kiddos sa akin by the way).
