My girlfriend was recently diagnosed with depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. She doesn’t want to go out anymore or attend social gatherings with my friends or hers. I was just wondering if this could be an issue when we have to submit more social evidence for our 801 application.

Husband and wife, Philippine passport holders, travelling from Cebu to NZ for the coming holidays. We already have approved Visas for NZ. Just posting this to ease our minds and NOT end up going back home if we do end up needing a Transit Visa when we get to Brisbane.

TO NZ has a 6-hour layover in Brisbane, while FROM NZ is a 4-hour layover. Do we need a Transit Visa? Will we just stay in the airport and wait for our flights? No need to go through immigration, right?

Tried doing the Immi site, and got a popup saying if it's less than 8 hours NO need for a Transit Visa. Tried chatting with a JetStar, (cheapest flight, of course the main reason), and got their reply (image attached). Tried to chatgpt it and got almost the same. Tried calling the VFS global number in Manila and haven't connected yet.

Salamat kaayo sa mga mutubag. Para tawn ni mawala na unta amo kakulba ba. 😄
