I'm the main applicant and I have my wife and child as dependents for 189. In case the visa is approved, the plan is for me to enter AU first so as not to include them in the burden of looking for a place to stay. My question is, when is the latest time they can enter AU?
For example, my entry date is Dec 2016 - would they still be allowed to enter as my dependents if they plan to enter on Dec 2018?
Thank you.

In case I include my brother (33 y/o) as dependent (he's single pero one child is in his custody but both are depending on me for basic living), Masasama din ba sa application yung anak nya? if yes, anong visa?

Other family members
A family member can be your parent, brother, sister, grandparent, grandchild, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew or step equivalent.
For any family member that you include in your visa application, you must provide evidence of their:
relationship to you
dependency on you
relationship status (whether they are married, in a de facto relationship, divorced or separated).
This evidence includes:
a certified copy of their birth certificate and proof of their relationship to you
documents showing that the relative lives in your household
documents showing that your relative has been dependent on you for at least the 12 months immediately before you lodge your application.
Your family member will be considered dependent if all of the following apply:
they do not have a spouse or de facto partner
they usually live with you
they are wholly or substantially reliant on your financial support for their basic living needs (food, shelter and clothing)
they are more reliant on you for support than on any other person or source
they have relied on you for at least the 12 months immediately before you lodge your application.
If your family member is divorced, legally separated or widowed, you must provide certified copies of supporting evidence, such as:
the document of legal divorce
the document of legal separation
the death certificate of the deceased partner.

I have a question po. Marami na po akong nabasa tungkol sa mga na dedeny na visa dahil sa yung dependent nila has disabilities like down syndrome/cerebral palsy/autism. my child has a cerebral palsy at gusto ko po sana makapagtrabaho sa au para matugunan ko ang kanyang mga pangangailangan.
tanong ko lang po, pwede ba na hindi ko siya e sali as my dependent sa visa application ko?
wala naman po talaga akong balak dalhin siya sa au dahil mahal ang tuition dun. ang balak ko lang dun magtrabaho at dito siya sa pinas mag.aral sa mga special schools.
sana po may sumagot sa tanong ko. thanks po
