    @amari0527 if you are employed here then there will be no problem. Just submit all the docs needed. In my case i submitted all the required docs. COE, ITR, MC, LAND TITLE, CAR Deed of sale, approved leave, mga id’s namin and my payslip. Nagtagal lang kami coz they asked for my Travel Authority coz i am a government employee kaya pinag submit ako ng ganon. Then sa Financial naman, its just my wife’s bank statement ginamit namin for both application. Naka state sa letter ko kung bakit naka pangalan sa wife ko ang bank account namin. Wala rin kami Travel History. I just wrote a letter na gusto ko mabigyan ng best gift ang wife ko kaya kami punta Au. And sa pag apply, iisang immi account lang ang ginamit namin. We got approved after how many days rin. i think almost a month. Coz the CO waited for my approved Travel Authority. Buti na lang mabait ang CO coz he really waited for my TA. We went there last november til december. And we are coming back this july. If ever u will be granted a visa, may date naman ang visa natin kung kailan ang expiration niya so make sure magamit mo siya within the span of time. Kasi sayang. Goodluck po.

    Hello po! Hope you can help us :D Nag apply kami ng tourist visa last Dec 2018 and may invitation kami to attend my cousin's graduation. Kaya lang na deny kami kase lack of evidence daw, nilagay saken eh mababa salary and my cousin won't be able to support us kase ung visa nya is Graduate Temporary Visa. Although, may pera naman sa bank account namin na tig 100k eah. btw, nilodge namin un as group kaya lang unfortunately lahat kami denied. Ngayon, plano sana namin mag re apply, worried ako sa ano dpat documents ang dapat namin ipakita. kase syempre iisipin ni immigration na baka maghanap ako employer since mababa nga sahod dito or hnd ako babalik. :(

    @amari0527 i think wala..pero you may need to declare it sa next application, i remember may question if the applicant had applied for a visa before.

    @schama Individually gagawan mo po ng application ang lahat ng members ng group pero create ka ng group at indicate mo doon ang mga members na parehas ang itenerary/purpose. This is to facilitate the processing and approval by directing the application to one case officer. Ang drawback lang nito ay kung may isang member na magkaroon ng "problem" ay maaring ma-delay ang approval.

    Hi everyone! Ask ko lang po. medyo confuse po kasi. Ano po dapat ilagay sa Usual Country of residency? Currently working here in Qatar and balak ko po sana mag apply ng tourist visa next month. Pag nilagay ko po na Qatar, walang option for office nila. Thank you po sa sasagot.

    @cucci thanks but I'm little bit confused..."when you say" Individually gagawan mo sila ng application lahat ng members ng group --ibig sabihin gagawan ko sila ng individual account sa immi..? yan po ba..nakalilito kasi some will say isang immi account lang sa group yung iba individual account po sa immi acount..
    sa Immi account po under tourist stream mayroong group aplication doon ang ginawa ko po click ko po yung group application then automatic nagbigay ng number so yung number ang ilalagay ko din po sa mga individual immi account ng mga kasama ko po? tama po ba..?
    salamat po

    @amari0527 from what i read b4 nalimutan ko na saan ko nabasa..ang situation is..
    girl is from UK..visiting his BF in Sydney the questions are..

    a) Country of current residence
    -her country of residence w/c is U.K
    b) Current Resident Address
    -Her current address in country of residence in U.K
    c) Address of correspondence
    -Her address in Sydney
    it's confusing in your case kasi ur in qatar..
    what if,,
    country of residence mo is qatar,then current resident is add mo sa quatar..kung wala silang office doon baka pag lagay mo ng qatar mag generate ang compute ng ibang office (under ng department office) otherwise just continue kasi malagay rin sa form mo na philippines citizen ka at nag wowork sa qatar.
    or---
    pwede rin lagay mo na ang country of current residence mo is Philippines (kasi what i understand based sa sample sa taas yung country of current residence is ur country of citizen which in this case is philippines)
    then yung current resident address mo is yung address mo sa pilipinas and yung correspondence mo is address mo diyansa qatar

    warning:
    This is only my interpretation just wait sa ibang mag comment..:

    @amari0527 my idea is: if you have a valid residency card in Qatar, you have to use Qatar as your residence. Your office need not be in Qatar as it is emphasised na wherever nearest. Maybe in Dubai?

    @schama sa isang immi account lang po you can create applications for every person in the group. On the same immi account, you create a group and say name it "Schama", pagdating na dun sa option na group, piliin mo ang Schama.
