Nobody, absolutely nobody except you has spoke about bribing an embassy for a visa. You may have mistook the discussion regarding paying the agency to extend your ordinary visa for something else. You'd do well to quote posts you're replying to in order for proper context. I'm not trying to goad you, it does seem like you don't actually understand what's being discussed here and what is not.visitor-again wrote: ↑Sat Sep 12, 2020 9:52 pmGuest - please read what I wrote and stop bullshitting red herrings. I referred to an earlier post about issuing visas at an embassy. You correct me repeatedly about things i never wrote or referred too.
Offering a bribe at an embassy for a granting visa is a criminal offense which will get you blacklisted. If you know better - fine.
Again guest - I referred to an earlier post about embassies, try to understand that.
I arrived in PP last night

Up until a couple years ago it was only $170, but has gone up.
The Visa agencies actually make very little, the majority goes to those who actually process the Visa applications (just take a look at the carpark of the relevant departments Visa office).
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
Going to immigration was no more of a hassle than going to a visa agent's place of business is. And I had nothing better to do now that I am retired (my employer handled it in years past). By the way, I don't know if it is a family member-type visa extension (my wife still works) or a retirement-type visa extension. I qualify for both, and it really doesn't matter to me which one I got.
So you don't even know what category of Extension you applied for? It should be annotated on the receipt the DoI Visa office issued you.wolfcreek wrote: ↑Sun Sep 13, 2020 1:39 pmGoing to immigration was no more of a hassle than going to a visa agent's place of business is.

Have you already received your EOS back? If so, the category will be stamped on the EOS sticker...ie. EB or ER or EG???
What supporting documentation did you provide?

Glance at your passport and find out in haste because there’s a hefty fine if you don’t have a work permit and you’re on a visa type that requires it.
It is expensive and dangerous to ignore immigration matters. Don’t guess and chance these things.
If you qualify for a retirement visa and you are retired then make sure that you are on a retirement extension. It’s a lot less hassle than EB and EG.

What kind of proof of funds is needed for an ER extension ?
I'm about 53 years old and am retired, self supporting off a stock portfolio and some rental income. So there's no "pension" payment, but I do have adequate funds.
Would a print out of a suitable bank statement be sufficient ?
Yes, print out of bank statement is fine. People have been issued an ER by showing as little as $6000 in a bank acct, that equates to $500 per month. There is no official published set amount stating what qualifies as sufficient funds.Jun wrote: ↑Mon Oct 12, 2020 9:54 pm
