Use this form as a guide to charges and fees (in Australian dollars)

for visas and services from 1 November 2011. If you have applied

prior to 1 November 2011, please refer to the version that was

applicable when you lodged your application. Earlier versions

are available on www.immi.gov.au/allforms/990i.htm

Payment (or evidence of payment if made in Australia or

elsewhere) must accompany your application and is generally

not refunded if the application is unsuccessful.

All fees and charges are listed in Australian dollars (AUD) and

correct at time of release. If you are paying fees and charges

outside Australia, payment will need to be made in the currency

and in the method accepted by the Australian High Commission,

Embassy or Consulate, where the payment is being made. To

find out the currencies and methods accepted in the country

in which you are making your payment see

www.immi.gov.au/allforms/990i/converter.htm. Fees may

be subject to adjustment at any time. Visa Application Charges

may be subject to adjustment on 1 July each year. This may

increase the cost of a visa. For general information regarding

Visa Application Charges, see

Internet applications – payment methods

Payment for any internet application must be made in Australian

dollars by credit card online, or for some application types, by

Bpay using an Australian telephone or internet banking service.

Bpay is only available for students in Australia applying for their

initial student visa or further stay student visa. If you already

have a visa and it will expire within the next 7 days, do not use

Bpay because the payment will not be received before your visa

expires. For more information, see

Medical and radiological examination costs

Permanent and some temporary visa applicants may be required

to undertake and pay for radiological and medical examinations.

All costs are paid by the applicant directly to the doctors or

clinics undertaking the examination. The cost of these

examinations undertaken in Australia is approximately $430.

Costs of examinations undertaken outside Australia may vary

from country to country. There may be additional costs if further

tests or couriers are required. The Department of Immigration

and Citizenship (the department) does not regulate such

charges but where allegations of excessive charging are made,

the department may contact the doctor and request that charges

be amended in line with prices charged in that country for

similar medical examinations.

For people being examined in Australia, there is also a fee

payable to Medibank Health Solutions for a digital photo of

each person examined.
