Applicants chosen through the pre-application ballot for certain visa categories can use their Ballot Registration ID only once to submit a visa application via ImmiAccount; any additional attempts with the same ID will be blocked.
If you’ve been selected for a Work and Holiday visa (subclass 462) from China, India, or Vietnam, or a Pacific Engagement visa (subclass 192), it’s important to note that your Ballot Registration ID is valid for only one application through ImmiAccount.
Attempting to start a second application with the same ID will trigger this error:
“A visa application has already been submitted for payment related to this Registration ID. Only one visa application can be submitted against each Registration ID.”
Key Points:
- After submitting a visa application with your Ballot Registration ID, it cannot be reused.
- This error will block payment processing and prevent the application from moving forward.
What to Do if You Encounter This Error:
If you receive this error message or face any issues with your Registration ID, please:
- Complete the Immi Account Technical Support Form.
- Attach a scanned copy of your passport’s photo page to help with your enquiry.
