But the CO issuing a request for medicals will delay it, compared to doing it right away (assuming na all other requirements are fine.

    Hmmm... Maybe try asking or clarifying the matter with the case officer. Notification of incorrect answer might work... But don't have experience with this, so not sure.

    Hello po, I also change address pero hindi ko muna inupdate agad ung address ko sa immi account. I am planning to update atleast a month after ko lumipat. All billing kasi nakaddress pa sa old place, recently lang ako nagupdate ng address sa billing.
    Once na may hawak na kong billings on my new place or proof of address tsaka ko iuupdate. Hope it helps po.

    oo nga no, parang mas may impact pag change country kaya need immediate notification sa immiaccount. pero pag sa case na same country lang din naman, baka ok lang kahit hintayin nalang ma-grant? haha.

    nag sesend ba ng snail mail si DoHA dun sa indicated postal address? yun lang concern ko, if ever may i-send sila sa old address ko.

    Any changes in your details like address, the immigration should be notified. I think at least 15-28 days.

    Hi po. Any idea regarding English test validity extension? I heard pwede maextend ang validity ng english test? Nainvite po kasi ako November 2022 then while waiting to confirm na pwede na maglodge ng visa application, naexpire na yung english test ko last feb 2023.

    Pwede pa ba to? Or do i have to take the english test again?

    Hi po. Any idea regarding English test validity extension? I heard pwede maextend ang validity ng english test? Nainvite po kasi ako November 2022 then while waiting to confirm na pwede na maglodge ng visa application, naexpire na yung english test ko last feb 2023.

    Pwede pa ba to? Or do i have to take the english test again?

    Did you lodge the visa application before Feb 2023? If so, that should be fine.

    Hi, the English exams results both PTE and IELTS have a validity of 2 years. But for AU migration, it is valid for 3 years from the date it was undertaken. So even if your English exam results are technically already expired in year 2, you can still use it for another year for your AU migration.

    MY ROAD TO AUSTRALIAN PR

    Nominated Occupation: Architectural Draftsperson - ANZSCO 312111 (Offshore)


    2020

    Jan 20: Since I’m DIYing it, I started researching and learning the whole process.
    Feb 22: VETASSESS – I started gathering all required documents.
    Apr 25: VETASSESS – I finished gathering all my documents. I created my account and started filling up the Skills Assessment for General Occupation Application.
    Apr 29: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents. I started uploading the required documents. I decided not to include my first work in the Philippines because I don’t have payment evidence of it. I didn’t include my 1st work in Singapore as well because I don’t have a Certificate of Employment from that job.
    Apr 30: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents for the last time.
    May 01: VETASSESS – I successfully submitted my online assessment for Architectural Draftsperson. Total amount paid is AUD$ 880 (SGD$ 842.66) Crossing my fingers that the outcome will be positive.
    May 05: VETASSESS – My application status was lodged.
    Jul 12: VETASSESS – After 11 weeks, the results came out and it was Positive. Number of years assessed positively was 9.63 which is equivalent to 15 points in EOI.
    Jul 25: IELTS – I finally booked my IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 365. My test date was Aug 16, 2020.
    Aug 16: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
    Aug 21: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 9.0 R: 7.5 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
    Aug 22: EOI – I finally submitted my Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect for NSW Visa 190.

    My points breakdown:
    Age: 25
    English Language Ability: 10
    Education: 15
    State Nomination: 5
    Years of Experience: 15
    Total: 70 points

    *Invitation rounds for NSW nomination under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) are currently closed. I’m expecting that this may take a while because of the pandemic and the current situation in Australia. I just have to wait for the federal government’s advice on when it will open again.


    2022

    Jul 5: IELTS – Since my IELTS exam result was expiring on Aug 16, 2022, I booked my 2nd IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 378. My test date was on Jul 17, 2022. I didn’t know at that time that Australia is accepting its validity for 3 years. But I was able to use it as well for my Canada PR application.
    Jul 17: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
    Jul 20: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 8.0 R: 9.0 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
    Jul 25: EOI – I received a notice that my EOI is expiring on August 23, 2022, so I had to resubmit it.
    Aug 23: EOI – My Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect expired after 2 years.
    Aug 25: EOI – I submitted my new Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect.

    My points breakdown:
    Age: 25
    English Language Ability: 10
    Education: 15
    State Nomination: 5
    Years of Experience: 15
    Total: 70 points

    *Invitation rounds for NSW nominations under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) were still closed. It’s expected to open in November 2022. I hope I get invited before my birthday because I will lose points during an age milestone on December.

    Sep 09: EOI – After a long wait, NSW’s Skilled Visa Nomination Program finally opened. However, my skill points for my nominated occupation didn’t meet the minimum points required which is 90. I only had 70 points. I updated my EOI and changed my preferred state to Victoria, which only requires a minimum of 65 points. I then created an account in the Live In Melbourne portal and submitted my Registration of Interest (ROI).

    Dec XX: EOI – My points went down to 60 points due to an age milestone and I am now not qualified for at EOI in the Australian Skillselect. My only hope is to get higher points in my English exam to get back in the pool. I withdrew my EOI and ROI in Victoria.
    Dec19: – I booked my PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 367.11). My exam date was on Dec 30, 2022.
    Dec 30: PTE – I took the PTE Academic English Test. My test results came out the same day: L: 84 R:84 S: 90 W: 75. I didn’t get the scores that I needed to achieve Superior English.
    Dec 31: PTE – I booked another PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 361.28). My exam date was on Jan 09, 2023.


    2023

    Jan 09: PTE – It was my test day. The results came out on the same day: L: 90 R:85 S: 90 W: 80. I finally got the points that I needed to get Superior level of English.
    Jan 10: EOI – I lodged my EOI for NSW Visa 190 and was able to reach 70 points again to qualify for an invitation. By this time, the minimum points for all occupations were already removed by NSW.
    Jan 12: PTE – Booked my wife’s PTE English Test for USD$ 291.60 (SGD$ 401.85). Her exam date was on Jan 20, 2023.
    Jan 20: PTE – It was my wife’s test day. The results came out on the same day. She got a Competent English result which is additional 5 points on my EOI for Partner’s Qualifications (English).

    Not sure if may same situation kami dito but tanong ko na din :) Nag lodge kami ng visa mga last week of Oct 2022. Then 1st week of Dec 2022 we provided biometrics. Since then wala pa kaming nareceive na update requesting for medical. Normal lang bang timeline yun? Hindi naman sa nagmamadali but I see some applications na almost instantly received request to do medical? TIA
