Psychoboy. Pwede bang ako lang magisa mag IELTS kahit sasama ko wife at baby ko sa applications? Tapos sa initial entry sa OZ pwedeng ako lang magisa muna? tapos along the VISA processing, need ba may show money or something and how much? San stage din sya dapat ipakita. tahnks

if i may...
kung hindi kayo mag-claim ng partner skills for your wife, no need for her to take the IELTS. but, you will still need to present some documentations for her english speaking skills. pwede na dito ang certificate from her school certifying that english is the medium for teaching.
for initial entry, pwedeng kayo (primary applicant) lang muna and sunod na lang ang secondary/dependents. ang condition kasi sa secondary/dependents ay dapat sabay or una nang nakapag-initial entry ang primary applicant.
for show money, it depends on which visa you are applying for. i am only familiar with visa 189 and 190. for visa 189, no show money needed. for visa 190, it depends on the state which you are applying sponsorship for. so you would need to check sa state kung san nyo gusto kumuha ng SS.
i hope this helps. 🙂</blockquote>
Thanks for the info. Medyo tight kasi cash flows ko ngaun dahil nagbabayad ako amortisation sa pinas but wanted to start my visa application journey early next year. =)
