Thanks for the reply kittikitkat. Ask ko lang pwede ba yung ako lang muna mag apply then pag na approve tsaka ko apply yung family member. Medyo mabigat pla fees pag family of 5 then not sure pa kung maaparove.

Hi guys, verification lang, CO has already contacted and sent a request checklist under my name for police clearance and under the police clearance referral letter, me and my wife.

I have been working here in SG for several years but my wife has never lived and worked here, just came for vacations and also we did our marriage solemnization at Registry of Marriages.

Do I just proceed to submit only my COC? Or submit and inform the CO that my wife has never lived and work in SG? Could it be because we did our marriage solemnization na required cya tuloy ng COC? Thanks in advance and sorry to ask a lot.</blockquote>AFAICR, COC is required only from countries where you've lived for 1 year or more. So I think you can go ahead and submit your COC tapos advise the CO na lang in case he/she asks for your wife's COC later on (BTW, makikita naman sa Form 80 ang history ng travel nya so the CO might not even ask for it)

Just checked my old Visa Application, and may section doon for non-migrating family members. You will have to list them all and AFAIK, you will be required to submit related documents (ie NBI/COC clearance, health checks etc for your wife and/or family members).

You can bring in your family members later on -- once your PR's been approved etc -- under a different Visa.

Siguro weigh mo na lang ang pros and cons ng above na diskarte vs single application na lang kayong lahat. HTH.

@Miyawski thank you. Yes its more than 1 yr for Aus and minimum 6 months legal residence requirement for SG COC. I will just ask the CO directly and to refer to my wife's form 1221 for proof of her employment details.

You can do it yourself, just like how I and my friends did it (and others too). Madali na lang naman ang proseso though you'd need to do quite a bit of reading online, from forums like this etc, for any info that will help your application.

All the best 🙂

Ask ko ln po sa mga nagwowork pa din sa SG and want to get a Certificate of Employment (COE) sa current employer? Pano po ang ginawa nyo? Gusto po sana natin na hindi malaman ng employer natin na nagapply ng PR sa ibang bansa. Thanks in advance.</blockquote>You can opt for Statutory Declaration.

Hi! May alam po kayo na reliable and cheap money transfer from AU to SG?

Mahal kasi charge ng banks dito. Kung may alam kayo na transfer na parang sa Lucky Plaza or parang DBS remit.

Thanks.

Based po pala ako Melbourne.

@tibs12345 pwede po dbs online remit to Au bank account.

@inhinyero_sg Hi! I used DBS remit for SG to AU. Pwede po ba AU to SG yung DBS remit?

May times na natatanggap ko ang perang ni-transfer ko from my NAB account to my POSB/DBS account within the day (depends on what time you did the transfer).

If you don't mind a referral code, use mine -> <a href="https://transferwise.com/a/43658b">TransferWise</a>

San ka dito sa Melbourne? 🙂

You can tell them it is part of your Singapore PR documents... etc!

<blockquote class="Quote" rel="kittykitkat18">@Miyawski have u tried sending to Ph? Ive tried iremit, im not satisfied with their service.

So what I do is course the money through my Singapore DBS Account tapos saka ko transfer to my PH Bank Account. Free kasi ang remittance fee ng DBS to PH bank accounts.

<blockquote class="Quote" rel="von1xx">Hi guys,

May mga kakilala ako ang dinahilan nila is kailangan for course studies sa NUS or BCA. Or for tourist VISA application (Long shot). I think mas okay na ikaw mismo gumawa ng COE. Ang alam ko hindi naman yung higher boss ang kailangan magendorse ng COE e, pwede yung HR or immediate supervisor (kung sino man ang mas ka close mo)

Ayoko din sana ipaalam sa MD ko nung una pero in the end sinabi ko din ang totoo. Sinabi ko lang na group of friends kami at niyaya lang ako na magpaassess if qualified kami to work sa Australia. Sabi ko assessment lang naman and hindi namin plan mag migrate.
