New visa application lodgement place in Manila

by Jeff Harvie | Jun 16, 2014 | Administration of visa applications, Australian Visa Applications | 2 comments

For years Down Under Visa have lodged our clients visa applications at the “VIA Center” in Makati.

As of today, there is a new operator called VFS in Manila who have the contract for receiving applications on behalf of the Australian Embassy. They don’t process the applications. They merely receive them and deliver them to the Embassy.

This may cause a few days delay with lodgement of visa applications this week whilst we sort out how they work, so please bear with us. As with most things connected to the Government, we find these things out at the last minute.
