Can I apply my mom under Student Dependent Visa?

Chebear

Hello po. I'm new here and I just want to ask for some advice. I'm planning on studying in Sydney next year. Gusto ko po sana isama mom as dependent pero hindi pa sya aged. Pwede ko po ba say isama? Kaso hindi sya nakatira saki. I'm currently in SG and she's in the Philippines but I'm the one who's paying all her bills. Dalawa na lang kasi kami eh. Mas gusto kong kasama ko mama ko if I'll be studying in Oz next year. Any advice will do. Thank you po

Kung di po ako nagkakamali pwede mo lang isama mother mo if you're aged 18 and below pero di ko ako sigurado. Sana may ibang sumagot na mas may alam dito.

@VegeMate Yun nga din po pagkaka-alam ko. Pero may nabasa kasi ako na pwede naman daw basta i-prove lang na talgang dependent. Kaya lang hindi ako sure kung totoo nga.

@Cheber You can consult mam sa IDP dyan sa singapore. Sigurado matutulungan ka nila. Libre po services nila

For student visa applicants, only their partner and (minor) children can be included in the application as dependents.

"The Student Guardian visa (subclass 580) is a temporary visa for a person who needs to come to Australia to provide care and support for:

-a student visa holder who is younger than 18 years of age
-a student visa holder who is older than 18 years of age and who needs such care and support due to exceptional circumstances"

If you as a student "need care and support due to exceptional circumstances", then your mom can apply for this visa.

@VegeMate I'll try and check with IDP. Thank you
@appledeuce Hahaha. Pwede din po kaso ano naman po kaya ang meaning nila ng "need care and support due to exceptional circumstances"? I'm emotionally attached to my mom since it's always been just the two of us.

Salamat po sa mga sagot. Try ko din po magtanong sa IDP

Good luck po sa application
