Thank you ulet @cucci Ms. @RheaMARN1171933 .
Have you used the same docu po? Wondering kung sino po pwede ilagay as approved witness. And need po ba na ipa-Notarized din yung document?

Thank you po!

I submitted Character StatDec as supplement kahit na may existing PCC. Since sa Pinas gagawin, have the Stat Dec formatted as Affidavit and be notarized.

Thank you. Then yung witness mo yung notary public na lang? or pwede kahit sino? sorry medyo nalilito lang.

Pag affidavit po, the notary public acts as your witness by attesting that you are the person executing the document and signing it in his presence.

Hi All, @cucci and Ms @RheaMARN1171933.

SeeK lang po ako ng help if pwede na tong Cover letter na ginawa ko or if may sample kayo na pwede mahingi. TIA.

=======================================================
To The Honorable Case Officer,

Good day!

I am** Juan Dela Cruz**, ## years old, Filipino, with passport ID number AB1234567 **and currently residing in the Philippines. I have been working as a **Position **at **XYZ Company for over 7 years. Working with US based clients, I was privileged to be sent for training in the US for 4 months under J1 training visa.

I would like to inquire if obtaining an FBI Police certificate is applicable for my case since I only stayed in the US for less than 12 months. This is in reference to the document included on the Request for More Information email.

Please see below excerpt from the request checklist:
" Police certificates
You must provide police certificate(s) from each country where you have lived for a total
of 12 months or more in the last 10 years as evidence that you satisfy the character
requirements. These 12 months are calculated cumulatively and need not have been
consecutive. "

Hence, attached is my signed and notarized Commonwealth statutory declaration document. I hope this will suffice in place of the FBI Police certificate.

I've also taken the necessary steps to obtain the FBI certificate if the statutory document will not be sufficient. Although it might take more than 28 day time frame since we are based in the Philippines and it will be submitted via snail mail.

Here are pictures of my US visa, as well at the entry and exit stamp.

Thank you in advance.!

HI @cucci, Ms @RheaMARN1171933. Na-attach ko na po yung character statutory declaration at cover letter as you advised. Tanong ko po sana if icclick na yung "I confirm I have provided information as requested" na button or wait muna until ma-receive ko yung FBI PCC?

Please advise po. Thank you.

@cucci this is very crucial advice you’re giving. Be careful as you’re giving instructions that might negatively affect the outcome. You never click this until everything is finalised and you hear from the case officer. @Devi@nt19 you need to be very careful when seeking and following advice. Very dangerous what you’re doing at the moment.

Devi@nt19

Thanks to the both of you po @cucci, Ms. @RheaMARN1171933. I appreciate it a lot po.

Na-upload ko na po yung docs and will try to call the immigration po. Sana open sila tomorrow. Also planning to send a suggestion/inquiry email po siguro to clarify, kasi po sama mag docu nila online nakalagay lang lagi is pag 12 months or more yung state sa other country. Sana magreply sila.

Nakakita din po ako number na ito sa ibang forum if calling outside of AU. post ko na rin dito.
Outside Australia on +61 2 6196 0196. Pa-correct na lang po if mali. else para may reference na rin tayo.

Thank you po ulet sa lahat ng help.

Sorry po kung natanong na ito, tinry ko po i-search pero di ko po mahanap, question lang po sana, once po ba na makakuha na ng ITA (supposedly Jan 31, 2020) and mag-expire na po yung PTE ng (Feb 1, 2020), accepted pa po ba yun at hndi magka problem once mag lodge na ng Visa? Sa EOI po kasi nabasa ko na upon getting ITA dapat di pa expire yung ika 36 month ng PTE result, pero once mag lodge na ng Visa (suppose expired na yung PTE result) since di pa sure kung ilang months aabutin ng processing time for Visa approval at possible by that time eh expired na mga supporting docs na hawak, hndi po kaya mag cause ng issue? Sana po may makasagot. Thanks po and God bless.

Test cannot have been undertaken more than 3 years before the date of invitation.

When you must have taken your test and how long the test result is valid

Test cannot have been undertaken more than 3 years before the date of invitation.

Same with age po.

Thanks po for the feedback. Yup, I understand this on ITA side, but I'm worried about the time for anyone to do Visa lodgement. If you are about to lodge your Visa and your PTE exam validity exhausted (given that it is still valid on the date of invitation), wouldn't you get into trouble? Sorry for the confusing question. I hope I made myself clear this time.

Based on this video

at 7:28
a) Has the applicant undertaken an English language Test within 36 months immediately before the date of invitation letter.?

This question is taken from Step by Step Guide during Lodgement Process.

barricade

Hello question po... Kapag nakapag submit na po ba ako ng EOI for 189 and 190 2 weeks ago. tapos ngayon naisipan ko magsubmit ng 491 mababago po ba yung submission date ng buong EOI ko?

Or dapatag submit ako ng separate for 491?

gillianLeoh2017

Hello po. May questions lang po ako regarding sa holders ng student visa na gusto naman magapply for visa 189. Upon graduating, kelangan po ba talaga mag-undergo pa ng assessment para makuha yung 15pts under ng educ background? With no professional skilled employment po ito na kukuha ng bachelor degree dito sa sydney. Nalilito lang po talaga kami ngayon, hehehe. O matic na po yun na may 15pts if matapos and degree dito sa aus? Thanks po. God bless.

Yes all results are locked in to the application. Pwde mag lodge even expired na. As long as nagkaroon ng ITA before expiry. Same as your age, experience, PTE results, basta locked in lahat yan pag may ITA na.. nag pm na din ako sayo friend...

kahit pro rata ang gen accountant i think ang laki ng chance sa 189, before sept this year ,i think possible

agentKams

@gmoly12 ang taas na tlga ng points for gen accountant. you have a chance, but you really need to wait kung sa queuing nasa April 2019 pa lang iyong naiinvite for 95 pointers as per last invitation round (https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skillselect/invitation-rounds). For NSW i read my additional criteria sila for Gen Accountants, like living and working in NSW.

Hi po!
Good day! Nakapagsubmit na po ako ng EOI last month. Magtanong lang po sana ako, kung mag-uupdate po ba ako ng EOI pag nagresign po sa current work, magbabago po ba date of effect ng EOI kahit wala po siya effect sa points? Thank you po!
