Australian Tourist Visa Payment Dispute

Upvote:2

So, if I have this correct, you applied for two visas, paid the fee(s) and got both approved.

Somehow, you got a refund for one. I'd guess this is the mistake of Australian Immigration. Now they are saying you should pay them. Australian Immigration have done the work, so morally you owe them the money.

I doubt they'll coming banging in your door in the US. However, if you leave it unpaid it could result in you being stopped at immigration if you visit Australia again.

Perhaps more pertinent is the possibility that they'll notify any credit reference agencies they deal with. Credit reference agencies work internationally, so an unpaid debt could bite you from an unexpected direction in the US.
