Pano po i-outline yong finances na part? eto kasi tanong sa akin for state sponsorship..outline how much money you plan to bring with you. where it will be sourced from and how you will support yourself in the event that you don't secure employment immediately.
pano po i-categorize ang inheritance (bahay at lupa and farmland), pati bonus sa work? meron ako two savings accounts with sizeable amount..tapos sa haus ako ng friend ko mag-stay temporarily if makalusot ako sa visa..need ba ng documents nito lahat as proof? need ko ba state monthly salary ko?
thank you po sa help.

Do you think I still need to retake IELTS? My current result now if R:6 L:6.5 W:7 S:7 which is good enough for me to proceed since I already reached 60pts.
Age:32 = 30pts
ACS Assessment (Work Experience): 8 yrs = 15pts
ACS Assessment (Education ): comparable to AQF Bachelor Degree with a major in computing = 15pts
suitable for migration under 263111 (Computer Network and Systems Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

My wife has taken ielts with result r:9 w:7 s:7 l:8.5 and we are just waiting now for her cpaa assessment. She is an internal auditor. I am confident that I can have additional points from this.
Do you think I should proceed with eoi now? Can we both proceed for eoi and whoever gets invited first will be the main applicant eventually?
