    1. NBI clearance in Pinas of both ako & my wife
    2. police clearance both in Pinas and SG of both ako & my wife
    3. medical clearance in SG of both ako & my wife

    question po sa lahat and need help na rin please.

    I am planning to submit CDR to EA by first week of July. Pwede po ba gumamit ng credit card ng iba? Yung ndi nakapangalan sa kin? Wala po kasi me Credit Card e. Thank you sa magrereply.

    from my personal experience, own cc ko ginamit ko eh.
    pero from my personal observation after I paid EA, I don't think kailangang cc ko talaga. i think EA's intention is nagbayad ka. hindi naman nagamit sa other purposes iyong invoice na ibinigay ni EA sa akin after paying EA. I just keep it.
    suggestions:
    a. wait for others didto na magreply based from experience nila using other name's cc
    b. contact EA. mabait naman sila. ito po site nila...

    Iyong police check requirement for visa na kunin ko sa PH, ito na po 'tong NBI clearance? Or iba talaga Police Check sa PH at iba NBI clearance sa PH? Can somebody clarify po?

    From the website kasi regarding Police Check, ang address na doon kukuha ng Police Check ay address ng NBI sa Taft. Here's the website:

    We only submitted an NBI Clearance when we did our visa application in 2012; from my understanding, NBI Clearance and Police Clearance are used interchangeably in the Philippines.

    I could be wrong...

    Dear All,

    I need your help again. I am not sure whether I did fill-up my EOI correctly as I claimed 8 years for my work experience which is equivalent to 15 points.

    I applied for ACS assessment last 12 November 2013 and the result of the assessment is that my employment after November 2005 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant.

    Does this mean that my equivalent employment experience is only from Dec 1, 2005 to November 12, 2013 (date of ACS application)? This will be 7 years, 11 months and 12 days? And should I claim >5 but <8 years of employment wherein I can only claim 10 points not 15 points which I already claimed on my EOI?

    I would appreciate if you can reply to me before April 28 so that, I have time to revise my EOI.

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    @tartakobsky ah. I thought you took medical exam without CO's request. Then on the later date, you only knew na hindi pala need na magpamedical exam pa kayo.

    Balak ko rin kasing magpamedical in advance kahit wala pa request letter from CO.
