Visa Fees Questions

Hi mga sir/madame, confirmation lang po, for example I have 3 dependents na kasama for migration, my wife (with IELTS) + 2 kids under 18).

Tama po ba breakdown:

Me = Base Application Charge: 3,520
Wife = Additional Application Charge - 1,760
Child 1 = Additional Applicant under 18 - 880
Child 2 = Additional Applicant under 18 - 880

Total = AUD 7,040

Pakiconfirm lang po kung tama understanding ko, before kala ko sa AUD3,060 cover na lahat pati dependents sa Lodging ng VIsa?

Salamat ng marami, God Bless!

    ako po binayaran nmen nung naglodge kme:
    aud 3520 -main applicant
    aud 1760 -secondary applicant (dependent)

    wala pa po kme kids. Bale ung total na aud 5280 need bayaran kapag naglodge. I thought kc before mauna muna bayaran ung main. but sa paglodge, lhat ng dependents need narin bayaran.

    kelan ba dapat magbayad ng visa fees? once you lodge your VISA application? May mga na deny ba na complete naman ang mga papers? or because of health reasons? medyo malaki na kasi ang investment for the fees kaya i'm having second thoughts of pushing with my application. I am planning to move with my family (wife + 2 kids).

    @ebignacio, yes po. Kelangan na ng payment during visa application.

    Meron ako dito nabasa dati na nareject ata ang application because of inconsistencies sa declared info about family business ata. Dko lang matandaan kung ganun nga ang case pero related sya sa dineclare na job description sa sarili nilang business. Dko lang nasubaybayan yung thread kung na-clear na ba yung case at eventually nagrant din ng visa.

    Wala pa naman ako nababalitaan na denied ang visa application ng applicant na may complete at correct documents. Malaking factor siguro yung sa health kaya dapat before you lodge your visa, cguraduhing wala din mabigat na karamdamang dinadala.

    @ebignacio .. if you're confident naman na nakapasa ka sa mga requirements and alang malaking issue sa health.. dapat ok na yan...kaya before you do anything.. pwede ka naman mag self assessment/scoring muna para check mo kung magiging alanganin ba yung application mo or hindi.. ako rin.. ala pa akong nabasang nag deny na ok naman ang papers and health.. mas madami yung na de delay sa pag complete ng requirements sa ACS or getting the score sa IELTS.. for example ako.. 3x ako nag IELTS.. :\">
