New visa application lodgement place in Manila

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.
Who are Down Under Visa? Who is Jeff Harvie?
Jeff Harvie and the Down Under Visa team have been doing this for a lot of years! Down Under Visa have brought thousands of couples to Australia from South East Asia over the years. Mostly from the Philippines, but we help increasing numbers of couples where the visa applicant is from China, Thailand, Vietnam or Cambodia. And what this means is we see a lot of success....and we also see failures when people go it alone after talking to their mate, or their relative, or that minimal-care-no-responsibility Facebook group run by Steve and Maribeth based on their own visa application! One application, and they feel qualified to advise others! It's not even LEGAL to do that!
