1. We applied just the visa 600 tourist visa.. It is your choice if you want to apply other visa type.. That would mean more docs required..
2. Per person ang application form and fee.. In the details you can put the application in one group, so they will be processed together.. Also you can input information na they will travel together if you like..
I suggest explore the application form online.. Pwde naman i save without submitting/ paying.. So you know what to do..

We had doubts before and we were thinking na baka di ma-approve kasi wala pa naman kaming address and work sa AU ni wife dahil wala pa naman kami sa AU. So we're really surprised and thankful.

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.

Question: As my wife was the primary applicant when we applied PR visa, is it better to use her immi account to apply tourist visa for her in-laws (a.k.a. my parents), then both of us will just sign invitation letter? Or is it better to just create new immi accounts for my parents?

Also, with regards to bank statement ng parents, wala kasi bank account ang father ko pero may properties and business naman na nakapangalan sa kanya. If we would create a bank account for him, how much po kaya ang kailangan laman ng account?

Then i have other questions pa maybe others can help answer too:
1. How soon can one reapply for tourist Visa after current one expires?
2. If may 1 year validity multiple entry visa with max 3 months stay, pagkauwi pa after 3 months pwede bumalik right away to Oz then stay ng another 3 months ulit? Then repeat the cycle until magexpire na visa?
Thanks in advance!
