Andito yung fees https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/applying-online-or-on-paper/online/how-to-pay
Kapag PH credit card, may foreign exchange service fee pa (1.75%-3.5% depende sa card mo sa Pinas) plus yung surcharge pa ng immigration
Anyway, mas ok yung PayPal ng sister mo sa tingin ko kasi 1% surcharge lang...
Technically though BPAY (bank transfer sa Aus) yung pinaka-OK if fees ang pagbabasehan kasi walang fees... pero matagal ang processing.
And bahala na kayong mag-usap sa bayaran
