1. Create an ImmiAccount
Go to Australian Government Department of Immigration and Border Protection at https://www.border.gov.au/. Click on ImmiAccount (below the section that says Individuals and Travellers). Create an account and start a new application process. For a tourist visa, choose Visa (600).

Remember to have a valid email address. All forms of communications with the immigration are thru email.

You can import the previous application to the new account using the Import Application feature at the immi website.

First create a new account and click Import Application and enter the following details.

Actually mas ok po tlga diretso na subsequent entrant pgaapply kaya lng kasi walang timeline kng ganu katagal process ngyon baka kasi matagal mashado.. kaya naisip nmn visitor visa tas onshore application tas mbbgyan ng bridging visa si baby po.

Ano raw reason ng refusal?

Hello po which is better stream for applying tourist visa? Is it Tourist stream (apply outside Australia) or Sponsored family stream? Thank you

What was the difference in the employment status of your sister from 2018 to 2021/2022? Is she still gainfully employed in pinas at this time? Being granted a tourist visa before doesn't mean they will automatically be granted another one.

It depends on the situation of the applicant and the person inviting the applicant. There are limits/restrictions on who can be a sponsor for the applicant (must be AU citizen/PR), and the sponsor may be asked to arrange for a security bond.
