@ignorms hi, punta ka lng sa bulk billing clinic then dalhin mo yung record or certification ng kids mo from Pinas, tapos iphoto copy nila records nyo at ipa process n yung catch up immunization... if needed. Ippdala nila yn sa immunization register then bblikan k nila pg na identify n ang kulang... Kukunin ang sched of availbility nyo para ma administer ang remaining vaccines. GP ang ggwa nyan.

@Ronald.Reyes I think it's better that you take the PDOS kasi baka hanapin if you renew your passport in Au and I remember sabi nung officer (sa airport) that you need to show the sticker pag nakuha na yung permanent visa (I did not understand what she meant by this pero baka pag nag-apply ng RRV (resident return visa)).

@gabrielle I thinks it's better to get a room first especially if no jobs. To have an idea, you can read my blog https://www.thediaryofthelucas.com/2019/03/brisbane-cost-of-living-part-1.html.

For those who are planning to have their BM and want to know a little bit about Australia culture, you may read this https://www.thediaryofthelucas.com/2019/04/aussie-culture-and-slanguage.html

@juliatheambitiousoul hello po mam! Nice info po yung blogs nyo.

Paano po pag galing SG-Aussie need pa po ba PDOS? Anu po maadvice nyo? Salamat

Ronald.Reyes

@juliatheambitiousoul salamat po! We’ve already registered. Para na lang may peace of mind

juliatheambitiousoul

@lecia Pag galing SG no need since di namn nila chinecheck dun but if I were you, mg-PDOS kayo. We were hesitant too to do the PDOS since we were thinking it's a waste of time but it's very informative. Malayo kasi and hassle ang byahe. But you may ask those who did not do PDOS if there are any ramifications.

@juliatheambitiousoul thank you po. Di na din kasi kami uwi ng Pinas in case na ma grant anytime soon.

hello. share ko lang po re NAB visa debit card. pwd din pala na instead ipa courier sa friend's address e balikan na lang sa bank to pick it up once ready. aabutin sya mga 5 working days. depende na lang siguro sa preference nyo pero samen kase mas naging convenient tong gantong set up

Hello everyone! Wanted to ask. Just got here sa Melbourne, doing IE with my partner. Bale 13-19 kami Melb then 19-21 Sydney tapos uwi ng manila.

Initially di pa namin balak talaga mag set up ng bank medicare sa IE, pero ni recommend ng friend namin kung kanino kami nakikistay ngayon.

Kaya pa kaya ihabol sa Monday? Ano mga recommend niyong asikasuhin na? Bank and medicare (tapos pa deliver na lang sa house ng friend, or kaya kayang pick up)? TFN Tsaka na lang, ano pros and cons of getting it now if mga jan 2020 pa ako mag BM. Sa bank, parang nakita ko mas mabilis NAB kaysa ANZ?

Salamat ulit sa lahat! All the best

Hi, I just would like to seek for an advice if I still need to register online for a schedule for a Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar (PDOS) in Commission of Filipino Overseas (CFO) ?? Did everyone undergo this process here in the Philippines before migrating to AU? Ngaun ko lng po xe narining ung tungkol sa process na ito as I have already booked my flight and BM on month of May.

Marami slamat po sa mkakasagot! God bless!

caienri

@PinoyMech yes. Need ito since you are leaving ph as AU PR.

@alfonso31 Unfortunately, di natin pwede kunin to.

alfonso31

@carlosau bkit dw sir? Confirmed na hndi tau eligible dyn?

zach@052019

But centrelink still got lots of assistance to offer

carlosau

@alfonso31 May years of stay dapat.

@zach@052019 can you enlighten us, what are the assistance we can get the moment we arrive?

zach@052019

@carlosau Rent assistance, child care assistance and newborn. Sa centrelink lang ito. Need ang immunization certificate from AU IMMUNIZATION, also income test.

carlosau

@zach@052019 Thanks, will check that out.

carlosau

@zach@052019 Looks like may exceptions. Di pwedeng i-avail basta basta. We're you able to get yours?

zach@052019

Oo may exemptions pero may part doon na input lahat ng details na hinihingi nila (need meron printer/scanner sa bahay para sa mga documents) then submit, then makikita mo ano ano ang pwedeng i-claim.

Nag submit na kami, once okay na lahat ng details niyo lalabas naman ang list ng mga pwedeng i-avail na claims. Wala pang approval pero praying na magiging okay din. Snail mail daw ang response nila and automatic deposit sa bank account ang payment nila.

alfonso31

@zach@052019 rent assistance ba sir eh applicable for single or for family status lng?

zach@052019

@alfonso31 Sa centrelink lang po ito ma aavail, yung may mga anak lang po

alfonso31

@zach@052019 so sad.. lalu pinaparamdam ni centrelink na single ako hahaha
