-will my partner be getting his visa too when i get a grant?
-why is my CO asking this?
-what if my defacto has a health issue that we do not know as of the moment, will it have a negative impact with my application?
-should i just delete him and just submit form 1022 to take him out of my application for easy evaluation of my application?
Thanks...

1. Initially, mag isa lang ako sa application then plan namin sunod sya pag nakahanap ako work, buti nabasa ko and inadvice din dito sa PinoyAU na mas mahal and matagal pag partners visa kaya nag update ako application sinama ko na sya kaya medyo nagtagal un approval kase we needed to update all the docs na ndi ko pa na prepare earlier kase mag isa lang yun plan ko dati..medyo mas marami docs needed pag may kasama sa application, pero worth it naman, 1 month delayed lang hehehe
2. Undergrad yun partner ko pero tinanggap naman ng CO yun diploma and cert of english as medium of instruction from both grade and high schools nya, sinama na din namin TOR and cert din from the University 3rd year sya nag stop nun college. No need for IELTS, nagbigay na lang kami cake dun sa high school nya kase medyo busy sa upcoming graduation that time kase yun office hehe para mapabilis.
3. Wala kami joint account, sa bahay kami ng parents ko nakatira kaya medyo nag worry ako paano ma prove yun financial aspect. What I did eh sa bank statement ng account ko ni lagyan ko lahat ng notes san ginamit tapos nagsama ako ng mga receipts to prove. nagsama ako even ng resibo from our date, itinerary ng local travel, pati resibo ng shopping (clothes and grocery). Mas maganda na gamitin yun EPS (BPI kase ako) para naka reflect din yun account number sa resibo, tapos sa BPI online nandun naman yun last 60 days transactions so make sure na mag download ng copy kase last 60 days lang ang available (para ndi ka na kailangan mag request sa bank pa if ever need mo older than 60 days in time sa application).
4. Statement from my mom na dito kami nakatira and ano yun mga share namin sa bahay (phone bill, dsl, how much sa food, and nagbigay kami amount in peso na binibigay ko twice a month) na naka reflect dun sa bank statement..withdrawal ng ganun amount twice a month. and statements from her mom and 1 of our friends for the social aspect, kasama pictures ng travels, dinners with friends, kahit date namin 2 lang.
5. May anak yun partner ko, though ndi namin kasama sa house and sa application. They will require them to undergo medical din, pero since bata, physical exam lang ang ni require. They required initially passport para sa medical, eh wala passport yun bata kaya I asked if pede iba since ang available lang now is school ID and birth cert (nabasa ko kase sa slec site na pede birth cert), ayun binigyan kami HAP ID using birth cert, no need to apply for passport.
6. sobrang helpful ng site na ito sa all steps na ginawa lalo na wala naman kami agent. mula sa pag decide ko mag try to Oz (dito ko una nakuha yun idea, I forgot though paano ko nalaman yun site na ito hehehe). ACS, IELTS, EOI, and Visa. Tuloy pa din sa pagtulong itong site for the next steps na medyo marami pa din hehehe.
Salamat!

may question lang ako, dun ba sa mga receipts and bank statement nyo, current lang ba? or meron ding mga past. mahirap kasi irecover ung mga past receipts and statement. like yung sa amin since 2010 pa kmi and most of the receipts from that time are gone..
nag agent pa ba kayo?
thanks! and all the best to you!
