Pwede po ba sya magpabalik balik dito sa Australia, without any problem? Nagwworry lang kami, na baka matanong sila kung bakit babalik ulit, kasi kunwari po they need to go home sa pinas at may aasikasuhin for a month only? Magtatanong po ba ang immigration officer if anong purpose ulit? Or as long as multiple entry ang tourist visa ay wala pong problema magpabalik balik?
Plan po kasi nila na twice a year sila uuwi para di sila mabored gaano. I am just wondering if it's possible and if wala po magiging problema sa immigration.
Thank you in advance po sa mga sasagot!

My question is aside from the usual docs to submit (birth certs, bank statements, etc), what other docs/letters can I provide for my parents to have a better chance of getting a one-year visa with multiple entries? That way, we don't have to keep on applying TVs for them every three months.
Thanks in advance!

I've read pde i-apply na ng tourist visa ang parent khit ala pa sa AU ung magsponsor though I have questions kasi in doubt ako sa answers. Hope anyone can share their experience
1. Address nmin magasawa - nsa SG pa po kme and SG address ba indicate dun? Sa July pa big move (hopefully)
2. Relationship to the Applicant - person who will provide support
---- sino mas ok? me or my hubby? both of us have separate bank accounts in SG with substantial amount to support her but mas favorable ang savings ni hubby. hehe
3. Health Insurance - required nba magavail kgad nito? I plan to get her one but after the grant pra sure.
I want her to stay for a year..hopefully 1 yr ang ma-grant kay Mama. Any tips or suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thanks thanks

1. Not sure kung pwede ang di AU address.
2. Kung ikaw ang magsponsor, hiram ka na lang muna kay hubby ng amount to transfer on your account, hehe.
3. I know you can avail of a health insurance na ang payment ay deferred pa depending kung kelan mo balak i-activate.
