Online Application - Tourist Visa Parent

pa3k_p · January 2015

@goreo thanks! So might be better to apply a month or two before the big move, para masulit yung visa...

goreo · January 2015

hi @muffles127 di sya magpprompmt. you need to check sa may lower part ng page if meron dun link to organise health requirements..if wala then that means di required..

goreo · January 2015

hi @pa3k_p i meant valid na sya from the visa day grant meaning pede na agad gamitin and mag start sya mag count after she arrives..yung expiry naman nung amin is up to 2018..teja lang ha iverify ko rin muna.hehe

muffles127 · January 2015

@goreo thanks!

muffles127 · January 2015

@pa3k_p hmm.. hindi ko masasagot ng directly ang tanong mo pero kase kung nagkaron ng previous visa ang parents pwede sila magrant ng 3 years multiple entry basta hindi sila under petition to migrate to australia or kung nakapetition eh hindi pa for processing yung papers.
I know someone na yung parents granted ng 3 yrs multiple entry ang rule lng niya eh kung magstay sa australia for 12 months kelangan magwait ng 6 mos before makatravel uli to australia

goreo · January 2015

hi @pa3k_p tama yung expiry ng visa, 3 years after grant.. kaso baka iba ang expiry kapag 3 mos multiple visa..
hi @lock_code2004, yung sa tourist visa na inapply nyo, til kelan ang expiry?

lock_code2004 · February 2015

@goreo 1 year valid

peach17 · February 2015

@goreo 1 year valid

@goreo and @lock_code2004, lahat po ba ng Tourist Visa - 1 year ang validity?

So kung mag apply ako ngayon for my MOM the na Grant ang VISA ng March 2015...
Valid yung Tourist VISA until March 2016?
That means, mahaba pa yung time para makapag abang ng sale na airfare?

Tama po ba?

goreo · February 2015

Hi @peach17 , yung visa ni mother na approved for 12 mos maximum stay period, ang expiry nya is 3 years after visa grant.. ganito yung nakalagay sa visa grant notification:
Visa grant date: 12 Jan 2015
Must not arrive after: 12 Jan 2018
Stay period: 12 months from date of each arrival

I think sa mga 3 mos stay period, like yung ni-apply ni boss lockcode, 1 year daw ang validity..

Hello po alam niyo po ba kung paano magkaroon ng multiple entry tourist visa na valid for 3years para sa parents ng international student ng OZ? Gusto ko po kasi sila makakuha ng multiple entry para anytime po pwede sila pumunta sa oz para mabisita po ako. Currently nasa pinas pa po ako, sa april pa po ang punta ko ng aussie for my school intake. Please help naman po kung sino may idea.

Saka po sa employment status nila ilalagay ko po na RETIRED sila. Pero wala naman po magsupport sakanila financially kasi meron naman silang sariling money. Pwede naman po yun na ang ipresent ko is mga bank cert nila at land titles?

Question po is ano po ilalagay ko sa question na "do you have any relatives in australia? Pwede ko po ba ilagay na "NO"?
Since wala pa naman po ako sa aussie kaya ganun ang ilalagau ko po. Pwede po kaya yun?

Last question po is kung kapag dating nila sa airport, tatanungin po ba sila ng immigration officer about sa family nila in aussie at sa status ko as International student?

Ano po tinanong sa parents niyo po nung pagkadating nila sa airport sa immigration officer?

Thanks po. Sana may makapag sagot po.

i have never heard ng tourist visa na valid for 3 years. ang alm ko 18 months max validity then 12 months stay. for the second and third questions, yes ok lang.

as for the last Q, not too sure, nung kami wala nmn tinanong.

Hi! wala naman kami ni-provide na itinerary.. It's Tourist Stream Subclass 600.. we applied last december lang and approved nung january.. ni-require ba sa application ng parent mo ang itinerary?

Hi @Xiaomau82, yung sa mother ko, nagrant sya ng tourist visa na 3 years ang validity.. 12months maximum stay per 18 months.. *pag naka-one year na sya sa au, need nya lumabas for 6 months then she can still re-enter and stay again for 12 months.

@graciecrazy09, dun sa Question na "Do you have any relatives in AU?" Pwede naman "No" ang sagot. I think ma-aaprove sila ng Tourist visa.. Please try to explain your situation sa Letter of Invitation na i-aatach mo if ever.. Na-gusto ng parents mo na magstay for a year, multiple entries and 3 years validity..I think they are very considerate naman and they will understand you and your parents situation..

moonwitchbleu · February 2015

wow @goreo 3years pala na grant sa mom mo? ano kaya ang qualifications para ma grant ng ganyan, i have a friend din kasi na 3 years din binigay. mom nya above 60 y.o. na. sa age kaya yan?

muffles127 · February 2015

@moonwitchbleu naggrant talaga ang australia ng longer visa for parents (ng mga PR and citizen). Pero meron dapat mameet para magrant yun sa pagkakatanda ko if yung parent is naka parent migration dapat hindi pa for process yung papers.

Kung hindi siya naka parent migration ang requirement niya is dapat nakatravel na siya to australia before and nameet niya yung visa conditions (siguro yan yung mga nifollow nila visa nila and hindi nagoverstay etc.). Pwede sila igrant ng 3 yrs multiple entry visa.

Hindi ko na maalala kung meron pa additional requirements diyan dahil nakalimutan ko na din yung link kung saan ko siya nabasa pero yan ang excerpt ng nabasa ko dati (parang ganun ang logic) hehe

moonwitchbleu · February 2015

ahhh, kasi sa case ni @goreo hindi pa sila naka initial entry so most likely first time tourist din ng mom nila.

Xiaomau82 · February 2015

wow @goreo 3years pala na grant sa mom mo? ano kaya ang qualifications para ma grant ng ganyan, i have a friend din kasi na 3 years din binigay. mom nya above 60 y.o. na. sa age kaya yan?

wow 3 years. kelan pala sia nagrant nito halos lahat kasi ng kilala ko 18 months lang then max stay of 1 year. what u think was the factor which made her visa granted for 3 years? Thanks

goreo · February 2015

hi @moonwitchbleu, siguro dahil PR kami and as @muffles127 said, walang application for parent migration.. and si mother pala is 52 yrs old pa lang ha so its not the age siguro..

goreo · February 2015

ahhh, kasi sa case ni @goreo hindi pa sila naka initial entry so most likely first time tourist din ng mom nila.

first time tourist si mother pero kami ni wife and son nakapag-initial entry na 2 years ago..

wow 3 years. kelan pala sia nagrant nito halos lahat kasi ng kilala ko 18 months lang then max stay of 1 year. what u think was the factor which made her visa granted for 3 years? Thanks

this january 7 lang sya na-grant..
about the factor, ngayon ko lang naalala, dun kasi sa application nya meron ganito:

"Give details of any significant dates on which the applicant needs to be in Australia:"
eto nilagay namin:
28 September 2015 Birthday celebration of my Grandson
22 January 2016 Birthday celebration of my Daughter
12 June 2016 My Birthday in Australia

baka lang eto yung factor kaya naapprove ng much longer..not sure though ha..eto lang ang naisip ko na baka pwedeng maging factor..

goreo · February 2015

now that mother has been granted a visa, one condition is that she has to maintain Health Insurance for her stay..and because she was granted with a maximum stay period of 12 mos, she needs to have a year long Health Insurance coverage.. ang mahal pala nun!! nagcheck ako online, ang range nya is around 40k PHP!!
i'll look for a discussion about it here in pinoyau.. thanks again sa pinoyau!

moonwitchbleu · February 2015

hi @goreo, it's probably the significant dates. as for my friend naman who's mom was also granted 3 years tourist visa, may naka mention kasi sa akin before na pag subsequent application something eh ma-grant daw ng 3 years, baka thats the reason.

goreo · February 2015

siguro nga dahil sa significant dates kaya ginawa nilang 3 years validity.. napaka-understanding ng immi ano po?

moonwitchbleu · February 2015

yeah, napaka understanding nga kung ganon. wala bang naka lagay na condition sa visa ng mom mo na after a year stay in au they need to exit for atleast 6 months bago makabalik dito? ganyan ang condition ng visa sa friend ko kasi.
