the first VAC payment has to be made at the time of applying, right?
the bond would have to be paid after the centrelink appointment.
when is the 2nd VAC payment made? is it right at the end? also, i know this sounds a silly question, but can confirmation of funds be enough (ie. house deeds and a valuation of the property), or does it have to be cash?
this is on the contributory parent visa (143). or, it could be on the contributory aged visa (864). i think the latter though has to be on-shore. rather than off-shore, if anyone can verify please?
also, speaking of picking peoples brains, what is the time scale on the permanent contributory parent visa (i think this takes about a year), compared to the temporary contributory parent visa. trying to get them there as soon as possible.
sorry about so many questions.

The bond of assurance only has to be paid when the visa is made permanent and that means you also have to pay the second VAC. They go together.
the second VAC is paid in cash.
I have been there and got the T shirt.
