Reply to @jaynive: A'ok....you mean IO sa Australia na na-meet mo Pinoy? Ayos yun'a. By the way, do you know any website where I can find the list of prohibited things in Australia? Thanks ulit.

enzo · July 2012

as long as both parties are free to marry each other. parehong single. mukhang you need a migration agent to help you from tourist to a partner visa. thanks.

Reply to @chantalgertrude: wag masyado kabado.. kailangan confident ka.. heheh
i guess okay na ung sponsorship letter na hawak mo..
at kaya mo maiexplain pag tinanong ka kung sino magbabayad ng expenses mo..
and also kung may pera ka.. you can prove na you have access to withdraw it kahit nasa au kana.. in case tanungin lang naman..

wag magdala ng mga bawal na items... lalo na ung mga dairy food, meat.. etc..

goodluck.. and enjoy your travel...

Hi there.. I'm here na ulit sa Aussie. This time thru fiance visa. I was nervous pa din when I face immigration at NAIA. I wonder if every Sunday wala masyadong tao or pila sa Immigration. I was so luck na napakabait nang napuntahan kong IO

nilapitan pa nga kami ng isang officer , kasi ingay namin nung IO, tawa kami ng tawa, joker..=))

Anyways, may case din pala na pag tourist visa kukunin mo possible ka for "multiple entry visa". I don't know much about it, but a friend of mine applied for 3 months tourist visa and her case officer requested for an interview. Na approved siya, luckily.. and multiple entry visa binigay sa kanya and no need na mag-apply ulit. More than a year na siya nagpapabalik-balik here sa Aus-Phil, now.. she's applying naman for fiance visa na.

gleris · June 2013

question ko lang, if me and my mother applied for a tourist visa at isa sa dahilan ko ay accompany ko sya dahil cant read english and write sya. if granted, talaga bang isa lang ung visa at wala yung name ng mother ko? visa granted na kasi ako pero walang name na nkasulat or indicate na two persons dun sa bond paper na visa granted. any info about this po? by the way may nagsponsor smin ng accomodation yung brother ko at sister in law ko pero un nga primary name, name ko at wala kahit isang name ng mother ko sa paper.

jhoiz_1989 · July 2013

Hi! Im new here. Super need ko po ng help as in. Magaapply palang ako and wala pa ko kahit anong info aside sa mga nabasa ko dito sa discussions.

may friend po ako nagstay sa Australia for almost ten years na sila ng buong family niya. She offered me na magstay sa kanya, Invitation daw po. Papahelp lang po sana ako regarding sa mga documents. Nadownload ko na po sa site nila yung mga applications.

I dont know where to start kasi.Currently im employed, pero plan ko na magresign as soon as maapprove yung visa(if ever maapprove). Nabasa ko rin here na need ng proof na babalik ka here (land title under my name pwede na po diba? ) hmmmm need ko ba po magpabook muna ng flight ng roundtrip para may proof ako na babalik pa ako. tas yung show money po ba, sa visa application po ba yun or sa IO ipapakita, kung sa visa application may nakakaalam po ba how much? Im confused po. Please answer po. Thank you po.

iha do you intend to apply for a tourist visa or a more permanent one?

for a tourist visa i can give you some procedure

Yukishih · July 2013

@gleris dapat andun ang name ng mommy mo. Di puedeng wala. If wala naman dapat may documents din na mag explain bat wala/refused visa nya.
Re: money to show immigration- hindi naman malaki ang need if may sponsor ka ipakita mo letter of support or stat dec. kapag tanungin ka how much dala mo sabihin mo how much laman ng card mo/ credit limit and the likes.

Yukishih · July 2013

@jhoiz_1989 it's no advisable na magpabook prior to applying for visa. Try to search blog ni nina jas wandering going to Australia andun lahat ng details ang docs na puede nyo pakita to back up your application. Detalyado dun.

Hi I applied for visitor visa - tourist stream and lodged it July 24,2013. This morning August 9,3013 just received text informing me that I have a scheduled shipment delivery from Australian embassy. This must be the result of my application submitted on the date mentioned above.
I am starting to feel the agony now . I was just wondering that I haven't gotten a call from my case officer. Omg!!!!! So paranoid now that the result was rejected or approved.

Just sharing this baka may same case with me na di na received ng call from co kasi naman Diko maiwasan to compare with may friend na tinawagan Talaga soya ng co Nya asking some verifications. Eh bakit ako wala? Huhuhuhuhu
