It looks like gagawa ka ng separate immi account for each applicant..
Tpos nabasa ko na pwede mo i-forward sa immi account mo para ikaw ang magbayad..
Also, you can make a group, assign a group name para sbay sabay iprocess incase marami silang applicant (father+mother+bros and sis)..
I havent tried this..
Let me know pag nagawa mo.. Thanks!

Salamat sa info.
I am looking at this online tourist visa applciation.
Ano ang immiaccount? hehehe.. Wala kasi nyan nung nag apply ng PR at last na apply ng parents ko paper base application pa.
Kung mader / pader / sister apply ko turist visa... pwede ko apply sila lahat using my own immiaccount (after ko mag create) ?

You will still need to enter their details sa individual application..
Kung ikaw sagot sa expenses nila, then you will submit your supporting docs.
Kung hndi naman, then kailangn may mga docs sila, pwde na rin ikaw magupload dun..

- just arrived in Au 4 months ago with hubby and 21 month old son under PR visa
- hubby started working 3 months ago
- bigla din ako nabuntis, 3 months now. taking care of my son too.
- dahil low income, naka-concession kami at nakaasa sa centrelink (bad bad bad! hehehe!)
Our dilemma is, since low income kami at naka-concession, di namin alam if reasonable ba na mag-invite kami ng parent to go here. Gusto ko sana magpunta un mom ko para matulungan ako mag-alaga ng anak ko especially pag lumaki na un tyan ko. Medyo makulit kase etong toddler ko.
Sa side naman ng mom ko, di rin "malaman" ang kanyang bank acct hehe. At maiiwan un dad ko sa Pinas. May maliit sila na business na active for almost 15 years. Mga how much ba dapat un nasa bank acct ng parent for tourist visa?
Sana may makapag-advise dito ng anong magandang paraan para makakuha ng tourist visa un mom ko?
Maraming maraming salamat!

Pwede rin naman nasasabihin mo lang na sa inyo lang tutuloy As long as may enough na evidence ipakita parents mo as tourist to cover their living and travel/pasyal expenses for the entire duration while in Australia.

RE: VISITOR VISA APPLICATION (TOURIST STREAM) FOR _______
LETTER OF INVITATION/SUPPORT
Date: 30 December 2014
To Whom it may Concern,
My name is GOREO and I am a holder of Permanent Resident Visa.
Me, my wife and our 3 year old son are currently residing in UAE and have finally decided to move to Australia for good on June 2015 as we have saved enough by then for starting our new life in Australia.
I am writing this letter to confirm that I wish to invite my mother, ________ to come with us to Australia for a year in order for us to visit places in Australia and as well as to spend more time with her.
I undertake to provide accommodation and living expenses for her while she is in Australia. Furthermore I will ensure that she will not engage in any employment activities while in Australia and I guarantee that she will abide by the conditions of her visa.
The following documents are in the next pages: Bank statement, Passport, Visa Grant Letter.
I believe that the statements in this declaration are true in every particular.
