"In accordance with the Statement, the Government has decided to increase all visa application charges, except for Student (Temporary) (Class TU) visas and Tourist (Class TR) visas, under the Principal Regulations from 1 September 2013."
Maaaring hindi pa na post sa DIAC website. Baka same case sa previous increase na a week before the effectivity date pa nila i.popost.

Ang nilagay namin sa withdrawal letter " As requested by the CO, we need to withdraw our application with TRN...." Then request mo na din for the refund. Tapos sabihin mo na lng din na you will be re-submitting a new application once na nawithdraw ung application mo.
Simple lng and straight to the point ung withdrawal letter.
God bless.
