So pag nainvite ka with higher employment points, assist ka pa rin nila ganon. May announcement na naman din. Sana mainvite ka na! Go go go > > Unfortunately, against si agent sa pag-claim ng additional points for work experience, reason is that hindi highly relevant yung work experience ko sa bachelor degree kaya ina advise nya na sundin pa din ung deemed sa result letter. Interesting. Mukhang may point din naman kesa mag overclaim. Mas alam nila details ng work experience mo and degree. Do you agree na hindi relevant?

@quielsangil, matagal na itong thread na ito pero may I know if you had to get an OEC from DMW/POEA?

Ako self review lang with Ielts Liz. Try nyo makinig ng mga BBC na mga documentaries para mahasa kayo sa accent. Nood kayo sa YT ng ABC News din! Practice lang ng practice. Kayang kaya nyo yan.

They are just after our money! > > @sillyloo sorry I just read this. I have the same sentiments with @JuanAUS kaya I terminated my contract with them na. Unfortunately, they said that based on the contract there is no refund kasi ang "money back guarantee" is applicable only if nasa visa stage ka na and the result is denied. I agree with @JuanAUS para talaga akong na.scam. Kaya I terminated na rin kesa magsayang pa ng pera. And tbh, wala na rin sila recent posts kung may na PR ba sila na clients. I asked them this and they only said many of their clients are experiencing similar challenges. Haha I admit rin naman I should have done more research and check with other agencies, nagtiwala kasi agad ako. Ang enticing rin kasi nung seminar nila dito sa PH. Tapos last year ko lang rin nakita itong Pinoy AU na forum.

Baka kasi di mapili pag kulang yung nakalagay. Nasa EOI ko puro numbers lang, wala yung nsa parenthesis. Wala naman cguro problema yun when it comes to invite. Not sure lang sa visa grant if factor or hindi.
