yung deadline ng IE ko is sa Oct pa naman, ok lang kaya mag email para magpa waive ng IE? or better wait for few months nlng?
I still cant decide kung mag proceed ako for BM(my kids & wife will be left behind sa Pinas muna) this end of April/1st week ng May. hahaha.

Oct seems to be OK, im hoping, pero wala pa tlga makapagsabi..
in my opinion, April-May maybe critical.. it may be the months of the spike of cases in Au..
postpone if possible. hopefully by June or July, may idea na if OCT is safe.

In my opinion and recomendations kindly stay in SG mas safe jan.... palubo ang cases ng NCOV ngaun dito sa Ausi... lalo na papasok ang winter season nila. if you have jobs in SG save up. mostly June July Sept yan FInancial year dito maganda..wag lang maging armagedon ang COV19. naka work from home na kami simula next week. If pwedi pa e move ang BM or IE much better para safe ka.. cheers and good luck

@brodpete77 same here bro, magreresign na dapat ako end of March and last day ko sana April end tapos lipad na ng Au but eto na nga, lumala yung cov 19... so no choice most likely will stay here muna sa SG and will BM around July/Aug.
@aron_drn oo nga boss, ganoon na nga. most likely palipas ko muna although nakapaghanda na talaga ako ng BM for April hahahaha. ipon nlng ulit.

Panalo ang covid-19. Daming planong nacancel. BM sana namin sa April kaso cancelled. Last day na sana ng work ko dito sa SG, buti mabait boss ko, napakiusapan ko na maextend until maging ok na sitwasyon. Kelangang icancel mga flight at airbnb, sana lahat marefund. IED pa naman namin sa Nov tapos 489. Good luck sa ating lahat, keep safe and healthy. Magiging ok din ang lahat 🙏🏻 🙂

Much better to be with your Family sa mga times na ganito. Mga companies dito work from home na. Madalang na din interview. Kahit mga casual jobs wala na din masyado. Yong mga supermarkets ubusan na din kase nga baka mag lock down dito. Possible yon pero wala pa naman confirmation. I'm a student but like to share the current situation dito sa Sydney. Pero on going pa rin naman yong class namin dito. Pero may mga school na nagsara na especially those naka quarantine na area. In demand jobs Lang dito atm are Supermarkets and Hospitals. Hope it would end very soon.

Tama wag na uwi Pinas please lang, madami talaga ang positive pero di lng na test. Lahat ng cases dito sa SG halos galing overseas. Sobrang busy nga dito sa hospital ngayon kasi dito nakaadmit mga ncov patient.
Antay antay lang tayo, praying na mag lessen ang number ng cases.
