Looks like may matinding rason bakit more than sa processing timeline as a priority at nasa 1 year bago sya naapprove .
Let's hope na magtuloy tuloy naman ang grants for many.

Iba iba hehe. May halong swerte. Yung iba, even expired na at lampas dahil sa mahabang processing granted pa din.
What we noticed is pag ni-reuse yung medical, (e.g. used for tourist visa or other visa) yun nahihingian ng s56 for renewal.

Hello guys!!! Bago lang kami ng wife ko dito sa Canberra at naghahanap po ako ng work related sa career at industry ko. Almost 10 years ako sa Singapore at 6 months sa Philippines na ang field ay sa Construction Industry, bale more on Project Management ang role ko as a Project Manager / Senior Project Engineer / Project Engineer at ang degree ko ay Electrical Engineer. Any recommendation po na mga companies na may job opening kahit Project Engineer - Electrical? Salamat po.
