    @marchbaby usually pwede naman mag apply ng extension basta wala yung 8503 condition pero depende sa reason of extension. before this epidemic had blown out few weeks ago, kaka-apply din lang namin ng visa extension para sa tita ko and our reason was to help with taking of our baby. approved naman. Pero, not sure in our current situation. although from what i've read, maraming nag aapply ng extension dahil nga sa current situation.

    Good day! I hope someone can help me or give their opinion about my situation.

    Nurse po ako sa Pinas at mag aapply sana ng tourist visa para makapag exam ng OSCE, however due to covid wala pa ding update ang Au pati ang AHPRA. My concerns are..

    1. Mag sstart na sana ako mag gather ng documents needed for TV para i-ready ko lang. Most of the post na nakikita ko online e hindi nag gragrant dahil sa covid. Do I need an agent po ba kung sakaling mag open for borders? First time ko din mag apply ng TV eh.

    2. May thread po ba dito about sa steps para mag apply ng TV?

    3.May nurses din po ba dito na nasa Pinas din, na mag aapply din for TV para sa OSCE?

    Salamat po and God bless!

    As a Filipino, applying for a tourist visa is a dreadful process. We need to go through tedious paperwork. In many instances, we have to experience emotional trauma from immigration officers who would ruthlessly interrogate our motive and financial capacity to travel in their country. Fortunately, some countries such as Australia have embarked on reforms and streamlined its application process. We greatly benefit from this improvement. Filipinos now have two options in lodging application for Australian tourist visa: a.) via third-party service provider โ€“ VFS Global or b.) online.

    Philippines is among the select countries whose citizens can apply for an Australian tourist visa directly online. I took advantage of this service last November 2015 and was successful in my application. It is convenient and savvy. If I used the services of VFS Global, I will have to pay for the processing fee, courier fee, taxi, as well as endure heavy traffic. Remember, Australia is a visa free label country. You do not need to submit your passport to the embassy to have it stamped. Australian visas are issued and recorded electronically. The following are the steps you need to do and take into consideration when applying online:

    1. Create an ImmiAccount => detailed steps here
    2. Answer all the questions => detailed steps here
    3. Upload Documents => detailed steps here
    4. Pay the Application Fee and Submit => detailed steps here
    5. Wait for Visa Approval => detailed steps here

    I held up my application seven days prior and presently sitting tight for the outcome. I process through an outsider and yes it cost a great deal! In the future I will attempt to apply on the web. Yet, for the time being, will stand by on the off chance that I will be allowed.
    Much obliged for sharing the info...really accommodating.

    Processing time is anywhere from 14 days to 12 months. Bukas pa lang magbubukas ang international border and I've heard of cases na 2020 pa nag-apply and recently lang na-grant.

    I thought that we didn't need to apply for travel exemption anymore. Is this really required?

    Hi,

    I have lodged my TV (DIY) since April 4, 2021, Medical exam by April 19, 2021 and got my Medical Clearance May 21, 2021.

    Since then my application status still RECEIVED. I'm a bit worried and frustrated since it's been almost a year now but still no progress with my application.

    I have provided my bank statement that time with around 100K funds.

    Any suggestion please or comments on why my application is not moving considering their international borders are open since Feb 21.

    Thanks for the reply in advance. :smile:

    Nakakadepress yung ganito na walang kasiguraduhan kung kailan darating yung grant. To think na visitor visa lang naman inaapplyan at hindi PR. Akala ko pa naman pagbukas ng borders kahit papaano di ganun katagal ang waiting time ng tourist visa. Nanghihina na nga ako sa pag antay sa PR grant pati ito pa. Sorry guys kung medyo malungkot na post ito. 2 years ko na kasi di nakikita pamilya ko tska partner. :'(
