so technically po if plan mo magopen ng bank account, dapat 1-2 weeks ka sa Australia para makukuha mo yung actual card? or you can tell them for example na you will leave din para they can do something po? Thanks!

Try mo dong itanung if they can send u the card overseas. Not sure kung pwede but there's no harm in trying. If aalis karin, maybe wad mo munang padala yung card kung walang tatanggap dito sa Australia. U can use your phone to pay things naman

If sa SLMC ka, photocopy din ng passport at original and photocopy of vaccination card. Kung may xray ka the last 6 months, bring it. And if you have ongoing medical conditions and medication, bring a medical certificate.

Ask ko lang po, may conflict po ba pag mag apply ako tourist visa while nakapag lodge na ko for SC 190?
Back up lang po sana, sakaling mawalan na ko ng patience sa current company ko at makapag resign ng maaga. Para mag tourist na lang po sana ako while waiting for grant.

Ang reco ko lang dito is to ensure you leave your current company on good terms with your boss. Possible kasi na when you apply for your first job here na related sa work experience mo, irequest ng HR na yung immediate ex-boss mo ang isa sa references. This happened to me and buti na lang magkasundo kami ng ex-boss ko kasi mahaba-haba at open ended ang questionnaire na pinadala sa kanya as part of my reference check.

Your cousin can apply for a tourist visa but she needs to prove that she will go back at the end of her holiday & that she won't work while she's here. Otherwise, she needs to apply for a skilled immigrant visa as well, if she is able to meet the requirements. There is a carer visa but it is only for relatives of people with long-term, serious medical conditions.

Double check the DHA page, but AFAIK you must be a settled AU resident to sponsor a tourist visa. So need to have been living here for at least 2 years I think. They can still apply for a tourist visa, yung hindi sponsored.
