    @Aiza05 Thanks for your reply. Still working on all docs to be attached.

    Did you submitted a Form 956a Appointment or withdrawal of an authorised recipient? Since me and my husband naman ang mag-aapply for them through our immiaccount.

    They already bought a ticket, which category did you attached it? Thanks

    @mariem Ur welcome! Nope, with my friend, hindi nako ngsubmit ng form 956a since sya nman ang gumawa ng immiaccount nya and sya lang din ngupload ng requirements sa part nya then binigay nya lang sakin ang access nya sa immiaccount nya so that I can double check everything and upload the documents required sa nag iinvite..pero nung pinapunta ko kapatid ko dto, ako lahat ang gumawa at ngupload lahat pra mas mabilis at gumawa ako ng form 956a for him.

    I dont know where to attach the plane ticket since never ako naka experience ng bumili muna ng ticket bago mgapply for a visa for someone..more probably pde mo iattach sa itinerary?? sorry I really dont know! Goodluck! ;-)

    Sorry additional question. Anyone knows kung mabilis ba ang approval ng TV this year. Sa mga Dubai nagprocess anong experience nyo? Buwan ba inabot or weeks lang. Pashare naman. Salamat!

    @Xiaomau82 salamat. Another question gusto kung magdala ng pasalubong pag uwi sa pinas kahit kunti. Hindi ba delikado dito sa oz airport na magdala ng kunting pasalubong?

    @vinria1694 online nalang kc kaya nman ng self application..no need for an agent unless wala kang kakilala or relative dito na pde gumawa ng invitation for u..punta ka sa immi.gov.au at gawa ka ng immiaccount..pakiexplore mo ung website kc lahat ng info nasa website din..visa 600 ang piliin mo, wagfamily sponsored..ang pinaka importante ay invitation letter from ur cousin..

    http://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/600-

    tapos sagutan mo lang ung section na "few more questions about you" then pede ka na mag start ng online application..

    Goodluck on ur application :-)

    @angel26 yes pede ma extend basta walang naklagay na "no further stay" pero not sure sa case mo pala na nabigyan ka na ng 3 months visa stay..kc sa pagkakaalam ko sa ibang ngtourist, every 3 months dapat nag eexit sila ng bansa then balik nalang..may friend ako na gusto mag extend, bayad nga lang na nsa $350 ata for renewal..online lang din sa immiaccount ang renewal..good luck!

    @mike0930 i think each individual still need to create immiaccount and fill/upload all documents but there is something sa portal na "create group" i came through that while filling previously. Someone will initiate to create group then all will copy/input the "code "while filling theirs. Hope this help.

    The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Eventhough I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and i will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

    @rosie_sg ask ko lang po ung visa mu is multiple or single entry lang? If multiple kahit no need na. If single entry you need to check if may nakaindicte n “must not arrive then my date..”

    @greenapple - sa pagkakaalam ko...any changes of information you have to email the Immigration. Kase nandun yon sa immi account natin noong nag-aapply pa lang tayo ng visa.
