Tourist Visa

atchino · September 2015

Hi guys just want to ask if still need pbng mgsubmit ng NBI at medical if 3mos entry or multiple sponsored everything by your Bf? Kasi mgaapply ulit me for TV last time naman hindi na hiningi skin. Need your inputs guys... thanks

If more than 3 mnths - required medical.
NBI? wala naman ako sinasubmitng NBI kung torist VISA.

NBI required alam ko kung migrant.

@atchino kelan klng ng ngapply ng tourist visa? ako din kasi experienced ko hnd n ko ngsubmit nung 2013 for 3mos TV lng. then ung iba nmn multiple entry granted even without submitting medical and NBI.

Submitted Mid August

I check the status of medical exam at magkaiba status ng s aparns ko. Sabay sila nag pa medical.
-------------
Father ko:
Health requirement – health clearance provided – no action required

Mother ko:
Health requirement – examinations ready for assessment – no action required
The required health examinations have been completed and submitted by the panel clinic to the department. This person's case will be processed or referred to the department's migration medical services provider, Bupa Medical Visa Services, for further assessment.
---------------

Anyone here can suggest if it will help if I attached the plane ticket as evidence and which category did you attached the plane ticket?

- i already bought "one way" plane ticket for my parents but did NOT buy the return ticket since I do not know the duration immigration will grant.

Once they got their VISA and provide the duration, that's the time I will look for a one-way return ticket.

Sayang, may mga promo pa naman lately di ako makabili ng return ticket dahil hindi ko alam kung 3/6/12 months ang ibibigay na VISA.

Kung lumbas n sana yung grant/duration, nakabili na sana ng return ticket,

I'm applying online for a tourist visa for my mum and my sister. my mum is 85 years old and very mobile pa. 2 weeks stay lang sila just to visit us and meet her great grand daughter, my daughter's daughter turning 6 months old. since di na sila abot sa Floriade (she loves flowers) next month, ni note ko na lang sa application na babalik next year around Sept. My mom is a widow and so is my sister accompanying her. Need ba talaga ang death certificate ng father ko who passed away in 1974? and sa brother in law ko na long separated from my sister before he passed away? o I can wait till they request? If kulang ba ang documents, automatic refused or hingi naman sila? Sa question about health insurance, ikukuha ko sila pag approved na ang visa. Okay lang ba ilagay ko na 'NO' kase wala pa naman details? Sagot ko naman lahat ng expenses nila sa duration ng stay. Btw, Aussie citizen na ako. Appreciate your inputs please. First time to do this so totally clueless and due to the recent changes baka if I read back sa thread di na rin applicable.

salamat ng marami.

hi! question po regarding proof of travel abroad. i have lost my two previous passports.. pano ko po kaya yun? i have a notarized affidavit of loss of my passport that i used when i applied for a new passport.. can i attach it instead with my cover letter and attach pics as well ng previous travels ko? yun lang kasi naisip ko. thanks.

cessr · September 2015

Wala pa kayo updates?

cessr · September 2015

@jyr Have you got your new passport already? I think no matter how many times you have lost your passport, impt thing is you need to have a passport when you apply.

hi, i just saw the medical exam link today. medyo late na nga namin nakita. anyway, the referral just requested for an xray to be done on a panel clinic listed by AU.

another question lang po... i'm planning to apply my mom another tourist visa requesting for 6 mos to 12 mos min stay. however, she has a current visa which will expire on june 2016. any idea when can i apply the next tourist visa? im not sure if they would allow me to apply another one given na may existing cya.

Health referral will automatically show up after 1-2 days when we notice in immi.
I actually contemplate if my parents can continue since all the info is in the referral letter or should we wait for a case officer to be assigned.

After a few days, I informed my parents to go ahead with the medical exam. The next day Nationwide sent the results.

They have policy for duration of stay.
12 months stay within 18 moths. if your mom stay for 1 yr..she i not suppose to leave australia for another 6 moths before she can vsit australia.

Waiting for CO pa rin status.
- medical already submitted way back 9-sept.

Anong health fund ang kinuha nyo para sa parents nyo nag tourist visa sa Australia and how much ? NAsubukan nyo na irn ba mag claim?

Hi All, my brother's visitor visa was granted on 22 Sept. The application was lodged online on 17 Aug. My in-laws' visas (also lodged online) were approved after 5 weeks. We just followed the document checklist on the website. For my brother, who is single, I added a Statutory Declaration (signed before a lawyer/JP). The Stat Dec was to provide additional support to my claim that I will be shouldering all of my brother's costs whilst here. I believe mahigpit and Immigration sa singles.

Hope this helps.

"Application Accepted" parin status.

Medyo nag start na ko mag worry since less than 3 weeks nalang yung flight na binili ko ticket for my parents.

How long is the duration of VISA you apply for your brother?

Did you get or planning to get health insurance for your in-law while in Austrlaia?

jacoralde · September 2015

I applied my husband last August 20, then they acknowledged it August 24. It was granted today September 29.

Tanong lang about sa fees sa NAIA. Magkano kaya kailangan prepare? Thanks!

@atchino

Hi there,

For both my parents and in-laws, I took out health insurance from Bupa, which was priced at $200+ per couple per month. I won’t be getting the same for my brother, as he is here for just 2 weeks.

Thank you.

atchino · September 2015

Ang tagal talaga ng approval noh... Ano August 29 naglodged wala pa ding update hanggang ngaun

Hi everyone. Quick question. I have two friends who are a couple and have been in Sydney for more than a year now on student visa subclass 573. They want their 7-year old son and the wife's parents to visit Sydney kahit for a week lang. Is visitor visa subclass 600 sponsored family stream the best option for them? Has anyone been in a case similar to this before who can shed some light on the required docs and the application process in general? Any info would be much appreciated.
