Siguro mas safe po talaga kung may employer's name at employment history, kasi naka received ako ng 2 s56s about employment verification (after ko mag upload ng ITRs at screenshots ng SSS employment contributions and employment history) naka recevied pa din ako ng s56 - Consent to Disclose Information with Waiver of Rights and Indemnity Undertaking, for SSS to disclose my information and data to DHA. :# > > Yung consent form po ay pinapirmahan po sa inyo ni DHA? Yes po, and kailangan notarized.

Ok lang yan ,no grounds to offload , may visa pa kayo. May OEC din kayo pag mag eexit ng Pinas ,red flag sila pag inoffload ka pa nila as you have a valid visa. If may 186 nomination approval na kayo at malodged within your visa 482 validity , magkakaroon pa din naman kayo nang bridging visa di po ba or separate nyo ito iaapply?

> @aidann said: > > @mathilde9 said: > > > @aidann said: > > > Australia Express is a scam immigration company. My research shows they are not located in Australia as they claim but are actually based in Israel. Operating under the name “Be There” and owned by Roy Perez, Adam, and Naftali Brady, they’re situated at Galgalei HaPlada 6, Herzliya, Israel. They falsely present themselves as Australian by using local phone numbers, but there are no MARA-registered agents involved. It seems they are deliberately deceiving people, using these tactics to fraudulently take advantage of clients. > > > . > > > > It states on their website the MARA registration numbers of their "partner" consultants in Jordan and NSW, verified in mara portal. May mga ganong business models kasi yata. I guess there are other migration agencies that do not have offices in Australia. So should be okay? Did you specifically encounter any problem with this agency? Can you share so that we can be enlightened? Thanks. Most of these agencies naman are legit in terms of registration, madalas nga lang sa kanila nagoover commit kasi and wala nang cadence once nagsign up at nagbayad na yung client. > > > Hello again, > > Please be aware that you should only work directly with qualified MARA agents for your immigration process. As a client, it’s essential that you communicate directly with your MARA agent and sign a contract that outlines a clear payment plan reflecting your individual process, with guarantees regarding your visa. > > Were you provided with a contract like this? Have you had direct communication with your MARA agent? I agree. Unfortunately there are also those scrupulous agents who get paid by these businesses just so they can use the registration on their website. Not until you speak to the agent directly, be very careful before you engage such business. Also, a responsible MARA agent should provide you with the Code of Conduct, consumer guide, 956 form from the very start. If you’ve not received such then it’s telling of how they work.

Naglodge kasi kami ng application last August pero until now, no update yet. Was wondering if it’s taking longer for citizenship test schedules to be sent out (and if it depends on the state, kasi may nagcomment earlier na less than 2 months pa lang may schedule na). > > > > > > > > > > Nag lodge din kami nung August 17, hanggang ngayon received pa din status sa immiaccount > > Kumusta po, may nakacontact na sa inyo about sitting the test? Nakaka-3months na rin kami after mag-apply pero wala pa ring balita. Ako nag lodge first week ng August. Got my test invite last week, rescheduled my test to sit today.
