Alan and Anna – Happy Down Under Visa Clients
Australian Filipina Couple with a Subclass 820 Onshore Partner Visa
Alan and Anna are an Australian Filipina couple who are wanted to tell their story about getting their visa grant through Down Under Visa and how they made it possible for them to be together in Australia right now!
They came to us in 2023 after three failed (ie refused) tourist visa applications. They wanted to marry in Australia, so with Jeff Harvie’s advice we started them on the path to a Subclass 300 Prospective Marriage Visa to bring Anna from the Philippines to Australia. They married in Australia, which meant it was time for us to organise a Subclass 820 Onshore Partner Visa. This was finally granted for them in August 2025.
They strongly recommend that anyone in their position should look to the experts at Down Under Visa to make their dreams come true. Why risk your happiness?
We thank them for the time and kindness to those of you who are still waiting and hoping, for showing them that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

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!
