Visa 190 - Initial Entry Query

hi mga kapatid... we just received our grant letter yesterday and we are every much excited to be in Oz soon.

question lang po. Is it ok for the Primary applicant to make the initial entry first? Or does it have to be together with the family included in the application? this is concerning the initial entry lang po.

maraming salamat sa mga makakasagot. God bless.

    @Vhonixki --- copy paste lang from below site. Kung ikaw lang magentry muna okay lang basta makaenter din family mo within IED validity.

    If I am approved, how long do I have before I must travel to Australia?

    The initial entry date (stated on your visa) is the date by which you must travel to Australia on your visa. This date is calculated based on the validity of your health and character clearances. These clearances are usually only valid for 12 months.
    If you (and any members of your family included in your application) do not enter Australia by the initial entry date, you will breached a condition of your visa and consideration will be given to canceling your visa.

    @Vhonixki just a reminder kung sa pinas kayo manggagaling. you and your family members need to attend PDOS in CFO. may sticker cla na ididikit sa passport nyo signifying na nag attend kayo at tinitingnan yun sa immigration. mahigpit ang mga immigration officer sa airport kya we need to abide with their rules. cheers!
