It is my understanding that you only need to be 18 to play in the PCA, so at 19 you should be fine. You do need a passport to get into the Bahamas, so make sure you have one or can get one fast enough.

There is a super-sat scheduled the night before the main event starts, so it is possible to win a seat once you're there.

To be certain this information is accurate, I strongly suggest you check with support@pokerstars.com.

January 23? That is after the tournament. Makes a difference if it is January 23 or January 1. The tournament starts January 5.

I think the original deadline was January 1, but they may have extended it to January 23. Not entirely a stupid question.

If there's any question, just get the passport. Better safe than sorry.

FYI: minimum age requirements for Australian casinos is 18.

If a player was to come to the Aussie Millions "under their own steam" you could enter the casino as an 18 year old.
