    @kitkat17 Magkaiba po ang ANMAC sa IRON course. Iron course is yung mismong course para makapagregister ka as nurse in Australia while ANMAC is for the skills assessment which is needed in applying for PR. So when you're finished with your IRON program, you register in AHPRA (counterpart of PRC) para maging Au Nurse ka then once that you have your registration you can have your skills assessed by ANMAC. By doing so, you'll know what points to claim when applying for EOI. :)

    @elleb1 mate, nag paplano na ko mag work resign pero dahil may plant bonus pa ng 25th September, parang mas ok mag wait then iabot na sa boss ang silver letter hahaha... Plan ko sana ngayong October ako mag book ng flight pero depende, ang ikli na kasi ng time. Original plan ko is resign this end of August (last week) then complete my 30 days last month duty until end of September (graceful exit ika nga). Ako muna flight, then sunod ang rest of the family by December. Dami bayarin to settle pa. Good thing pumayag in brother in law ko to take over sa house namin para may kasama na din si ermats and erpats sa house. Dagdag income na rin kasi they are willing to pay the rent.

    PDOS schedule na kami this Friday (leave na naman haha, sick leave na lang natira). Then on Saturday, punta kami sa agent ng umaga at may family pictorial and greetings sa visa grant. GOD is good! Nakakakaba mag big move big time pero ganon talaga. IED ng family is near - December 15, 2016

    Mag aayos pa ko ng LTO this August (pa expire na kasi and hindi pa nag iissue up to now ng IC cards, haiist). Plus nag iisip pa if wiwithdraw ko PAG IBIG contributions ko, 12 years na kasi tuloy tuloy ang hulog ko since first job.

    @elleb1 diba you are from dubai, if im not mistaken? Just to share with you plan ko din kumuha dito sa dubai ng personal credit rating. Baka kasi makatulong ito pag plan nyo magloan or bumili ng house sa oz. Ako naman, Jan 2017 ang big move.. Dami ko din iniisip ngayon like disposal of furniture, refund of deposits, etc. Di na nga makapagconcentrate sa work. :)

    @AspireAU21 pued online lng sa NAB, Commonwealth Bank, ANZ, meron cla dun na for migrants, check mo yung website nila. Pued na mag online banking and transfer of funds kahit wla pa sa Aus. Pagdating mo ng Aus pued mo pa activate yung account para pued na maka withdraw. Baka NAB cguro kami mag open as a start kc wlang maintaining balance. Kelan big move nyo?
