Hello, anyone here tried skyscanner to book flights from ph to au? Appreciate if you can share your experiences ๐. How did you add baggage allowance from skycanner? It only includes 25kg. I would need to add 20kg more. Salamat!

Every week may 1/2 (half price) specials. Wednesday ang 1st day ng sale. Nagiiba ang range of products every week. Malaking tipid din Yun lalo na pag may specials na meat!

Aldi mura din. hehe
Pero beware dyan sa half price kasi minsan kala mo nakakatipid ka pero dahil half price nga eh pati kahit mga hindi mo kelangan eh nabibili mo.
Yung tipong kape lang ang bibilhin mo kasi half price pero pag uwi mo may dala na si misis na shampoo, lotion, at kung ano ano. Mas napapagastos ka kasi mura. haha

Hello mommy!! Weโre keeping OCBC and DBS bank account. Meron akong certain amount na iiwan para sa investment namin na good for 5 years pa. Then may darating na lump sum amount for bonuses end of contract, yan yung pang remit ko via bank transfer to Pinas remittance..
No fee from SG-Au bank account, meron ka na na open anoh? Try mo lipat ng maliita na amount, you canโt withdraw yet, pag nasa Au pwde na..

No ITA, visa or big move yet but curious lang po since SG-based din po kami...may tax implications ba sa AU pag nag funds transfer ka to your AU bank account?
Joined: Nov 06, 2016
True!!! Naku kelangan po talaga! Sobrang laking tipid lalo na mga PR dito sa SG na nagbenta ng mga bahay nila, malaking halaga ang matipid sa free bank transaction. Pambaon at panggastos na din yun. Only in the Philippines po.

Itโs like a local bank to bank transfer. Wala naman tax something. Since PR naman tayo, and pag andun na, dun na mag tax declaration. Kaya meron TFN na inapply pagdating doon or initial entry.Personal bank account naman po yan.

Thanks po sa reply..upon research din po, walang tax sa AU upon transferring your money to AU bank account. But, it will be taxed on the interest earned once nasa AU account mo na.
Salamat po ulit.
