    @iamgly hello, i presume single entry binigay sayo. wala naman restriction when, just make sure na hindi magkalapit iyong date na binabalak mo magpunta ulit ng Aus and also iyong indicated mong itinerary won't state na mas matagal ka pa sa Aus than in Phils baka madeny ka.

    Kung May pa nmn travel date mo, mas advisable na March ka na mag apply. Yung chance ng refusal depende kasi, madaming factors pwede iconsider – evidence of financial capability, travel history, at ung intention to return sa pinas.

    @iamgly hello, just like what @Xiaomau82 said, earliest March pede ka na magreapply for your TV. pede ka naman magonline apply para hindi na hassle magVFS pa.

    same lang din procedure, apply through IMMIAccount then ung documents lang, bigay ka invitation saka proof of funds kaso d ko sure ano ung chances na mareject un application. ung kilala ko baby nila sponsor nila, nareject pa. weird lang. same intention din, plan nila mag lodge ng child visa onshore.

    ask naman. me and my hubby have a tempoin case i apply ko si baby ng tourist visa rather than 489, okay lang kaya? sa susunod nalang ung application nya ng 489 since maiiwan pa naman xa dito sa pinas. visit lang talaga xa muna sa oz. if 489 kasi i apply ko baka tumagal processing and ayaw ko abutan nya ung winter season.

    Nakalagay sa requirements "a certified copy of the identity page (showing photo
    and personal details) of a valid passport". Pano po yun? Ipapa-notarize ko lang ba yung photocopy ng passport ko?
    Thanks.

    Yung sa kapatid ko nuon, iniscan lang nmin ung passport biodata page, ung may picture. Pero kun required ang certified copy, just photocopy and get it notarized.
