Tanong ko lang if sa SG lng ba ko need mg request ng police clearance or need ko den mgrequest sa pinas? Thanks in advance > > Yes i think so kasi they only ask for police clearance on the last 10 years you lived in. But para sure and wala nh CO contact, kuha ka narin ng NBI. Para wala ng delay. Salamat @ga2au sa info.

> @mamertz said: > Hello, I have never been to Dubai. But I worked in Qatar for 12 years. Medyo similar lang naman kasi parehas Middle East. So palagay ko, pwede ko i-share ang opinion ko dito. > > Kung papipiliin, AUS na tayo. > > Maganda ang MidEast, kung ang habol mo lang ay kumita. Why not? Walang tax, makukuha mo ang salary mo nang buo. In addition, maganda benefits ng mga professionals sa Mid East. Kung ang habol mo lang ay kumita, at makaipon, at bumalik ng Pinas kapag matanda ka na, piliin mo ang Mid East. > > Pero kung ang habol mo ay overall quality of life, bukod sa magandang sahod, Aus na tayo. Mas relaxed ang buhay dito. Noong nasa Qatar ako, para akong alipin ng sistema. Walang balanse between work and life. Puro kayod. Pag uwi ng bahay, pagod na pagod na ako. > > Dito mas masaya at mas maluwag ang buhay at trabaho. Maganda ang tanawin, hindi puro buhangin. Madali makapasyal. Less ang stress and mas accomodating ang mga tao sa paligid. > > Hindi mainit gaya sa Mid East. Makakapamuhay ang mga anak ko nang masaya, at makakalaro sa labas. > > Kung PR ka, less expenses sa schooling din ng mga anak compared sa Mid East. > > Also, life in MidEast looks so temporary. Yun bang alam mo na anytime, maaari papauwiin ka ng Pinas. No chances of becoming a citizen. > In Aus, you can establish a permanent life here once you become a citizen. I definitely agree with this. If temporary stay and money making opportunities, Dubai is a good choice. But over all long term for a person and his family, I'd choose Au.

Hi

Assuming that you will have night shifts, best option is if you can have somebody to give care to her while you are at work, like a relative. Your daughter will be starting school with her age, and OSHC normally starts at around 6am in the morning, and ends at 6pm in the evening. If you'll be working nightshifts, you'll need someone to care for her during the night. That's tough, but you might be able to talk with your employer or supervisor and work out a fair schedule that will suit your situation.

> @chalin15 said: > Hello po. Active pa po ba tong thread na to? I just had my 2nd interview and waiting kung ano na next. Ongoing pa naman status so far. Hoping na may sumagot sa inyo 😊 Medyo di na active dito kasi I think most ng active dito before either nagstart na magwork sa Planit or nakareceive na rejection email. Baka once mag open ulit relocation job offer and madami na ulit applicants maging active ulit. If you have any questions ask ka lang for sure may babalik naman dito sa forum kagaya ko. Hehe. Good luck!

Hi. Would like to follow up po dito sa question. Does anyone of you know how to transfer money from PHILIPPINES to AUSTRALIA aside from western union, or bank transfer. I checked (Wise, World Remit, Remitly) but they can only send from Australia to Philippines not vice versa. Hope anyone can share on how we can send money to Australia in an inexpensive way. Thank you.

Naming Naming Conventions Australian names generally follow English naming conventions. Overseas-born Australians generally adapt their names to fit these conventions in formal documents. English naming conventions arrange names as follows: [first given name] [middle given name(s)] [FAMILY NAME]. For example, Jack Samuel ADAMS (male) or Emily Claire TAYLOR (female). One’s ‘first name’, known as a ‘personal name’ or ‘given name’, is chosen at birth as the individual’s personal identifier. It always comes before the family name. The ‘family name’, known as a ‘surname’ or ‘last name’, is inherited from one’s parents and shared with other members of the individual’s immediate family. Australian names are traditionally patrilineal, whereby children are given their father’s family name. However, this is not an enforced custom. Some parents may choose to give their children a hyphenated surname that contains the family name of both parents (e.g. Jack Samuel WILSON-ADAMS). A child born to same-sex parents can be registered with the family name of either parent or both parents. A child born to unmarried parents will be registered using the birth mother’s surname, unless both parents agree to use another surname.1 It is traditional for women to adopt their husband’s family name at marriage. However, this practice is declining. Many Australians also have a ‘middle name’, which is a secondary personal name written between the person's first name and their family name. For example, Emily Claire TAYLOR’s middle name is ‘Claire’. Middle names are optional and are rarely used in daily life. However, most Australians have one or multiple. Names Most Australian parents choose their children’s personal names based on aesthetic appeal. Many popular names have biblical roots, e.g. Joshua, Michael, Grace. More recently, it has been the trend for Australians to choose names that they find unique. These are usually names that are less traditionally common in the English-speaking west and are hence seen as more unique. Sometimes they are variations of a western name with a different spelling. The most popular first names for Australian children in 2020 were Charlotte, Olivia, Amelia, Isla, Mia (female) and Oliver, Noah, Jack, William, Leo (male).2 It is common for a child’s middle name to reflect the personal name of a close family member (such as a grandparent). The most common Australian family names have a British origin, e.g. SMITH, JONES, WILLIAMS, BROWN, WILSON. Other family names reflect the broad cultural, linguistic and geographic diversity of Australian families. For example, Jeremy SCHULTZ (German), Hannah NGUYEN (Vietnamese), Ashley MURPHY (Irish), Dylan WANG (Chinese). Australian law requires names to be registered with English letters only. Therefore, some foreign names may have various spelling in the transliteration to the Roman alphabet. Addressing Others Australians generally address one another verbally by the first name alone. In formal situations, people may use a person’s title (e.g. Mr., Mrs., Ms., Doctor, etc.) followed by their family name. Middle names are almost never used to address a person, unless quoted on formal/legal documentation. Australians often form nicknames for each other by abbreviating the name to a minimal amount of syllables (e.g. Michael becomes Mike). It is common for people to be given an ‘Australianised’ nickname that turns their name into Australian slang (e.g. Barry becomes Baz, Andy becomes Ando). These are often used within close friendships to emphasise mateship. Australians may refer to others as “mate” (usually to men) or “love” (usually to women) without knowing them very closely. https://culturalatlas.sbs.com.au/australian-culture/australian-culture-naming

In very rare cases, the CEO can waive the citizenship requirement, allowing a temporary resident to work at the federal level.
