    Guys, hingi lang ako ng opinion nyo... We lodged application for subclass 496 nung Aug 2007 pa. Last May 2013 lang kami nakatanggap ng email from CO requiring us to undergo med exams & submit NBI clearance. June 13 submitted na lahat ng requirements including medicals but untill now la pa kami narinig from CO. Nag email narin kme asking if all documents including medicals were received but la talaga reply, not even the automated reply.

    Normal ba yun o even ba completed na rquirements & ok ang medical pwede parin di bigyan ng grant?

    @hard2handle nag try na po kayo mag follow-up sa CO nyo? na confirm nyo na po from your CO na wala na problem sa medical? actually puede po kayo mag followup by asking kung meron pa pending or kailangan from your side. Kapag nag eemail po ako sa CO ko lagi ganyan ang entrada ko hehehehehe

    Currently yes po, but someone from the forum says napakiusapan nya ng 2weeks ;-)
    for the PCC. About sa de-facto proofs, yes puede po ang joint bank account, prepare as many proofs as you can, para kapag hiningi readily available na sya.

    Hi guys, we have finally received our visa grant today. Thank you for all those members who have contributed all their knowledge and experience in "do-it-yourself" Australian visa application.

    Going through the various discussions on this forum on visa processing has greatly helped me in going through the process myself without paying or going through an agent. Yes, it can be done with patience and determination.

    Thank you Lord and God bless for the other applicants!

    Hi guys, thank you! We could not make it through without the advice and support from the members of this forum. I hope i can also contribute to other members still processing their visas any way i can (except money):)

    @TasBurrFoot, we're looking at MEL and hopefully we can find work there. If not then we can go to any city where there is work for us. :)

    Hello, to anyone who could answer, I have a question regarding Form 80.

    Question No. 11
    Do you currently have, or have you ever had, other passports/travel documents not already shown at Question 1?

    Ilalagay ba dito ung mga old, cancelled passports natin?

    Kse I read the same question kse last time pero d ko na mahanap ung thread. Anyway, thank you!

    And congratulations to @Bigfoot on your visa!
