    @batman my dad is holding an Australian maritime visa. Seaman kc dad Ko rightnow on board pa Siya. And upon checking 6k yung medical Sa st Lukes for Australian visa

    No harm asking the case officer kung required ba tlaga sia mag medical. But I think since his maritime visa is still valid and health check is a requirement for that visa kaya sia narequire.

    Hi everyone! Tanong ko lang po, mas maigi po ba mag apply ng TV online or via vfs? Usually vfs kasi nag aapply yong inlaws ko and now, they wanted to try doing it online. They've been granted TV na before for a year with multiple entries and mag iexpire this aug 3. Also, ano po kaya ang usual reasons para mabigyan ng 12mos stay yong visa applicants. May 2 anak na sila na PR but parang less than a year pa ata sila PR. Salamat po sa makapagbibigay ng feedback on this. :)

    @mishy101 the only difference ng online sa paper base is that you will fill out detail online whereas the other is on paper. actually on our case we still need to drop by sa vfs for biometrics that time. if they have been approved for TV before mas madali na lng din for them to get new one. mostly nagbibigay sila ng multiple depending on the reason kong bakit ka at kelan ka punta AU. for example nilagay mo na sa October ka punta kasi celebration ng bday ng family member blah blah tpos sa December ulit kasi celebrate ng Christmas so multiple time ka na need to be in AU.(based on nabasa ko lng to not official)

    @batman thank you po sa feedback. Ang reason kasi nila is to take care of their grandchildren kasi ang dami na. Sana nga po mabigyan sila ng longer stay kasi kawawa din sila labas pasok ng aus every three months. Matatanda na kasi. But i really appreciate the inputs po
