Pag mga ganitong problem i think hindi na need e ask sa forum kasi ang main issue is money its not about the visa kasi both are PR naman. If u have money u can really lodge two visas kung sino mauna cancel mo ung isa its a win-win kasi both PR naman. ๐โ๐ป

pre just to be clear a, im not explicitly defending you, im just being objective and practical. dami ko kasi nakikita sa forums na wag ka na maglodge kasi may pending lodgement ka na. not necessarily true. kung may budget ka, apply ka. kung wala naman pala in the first place, cancel mo na EOIs mo kasi tama nga naman yung iba, sayang invite tapos di mo naman magagamit pala.
okay naman yun tanong mo pre, and i think everyone here has good intentions of helping everyone else. yung dating mo lang siguro brad ang medyo kailangan adjust.

True! > @toyotafx said:
Yes, valid naman yung tanong. And reading back, ang basa ko naman sa comments ng iba ay related sa context ng tanong niyaโwhich is more related sa smartest financial move than visa itself. Wala namang nangddrag dito, everyone helps with what they think and know. In the end, these are solicited opinions! Haha
Good luck, @songhyeky0! Matagal-tagal ka na ring naghihintay, malapit na yan!

Tru niyo pong pumunta sa banko niyo, ask them to increase your card limit to 200k because of immigration fee. Dalhin niyo narin po yung invitation letter. Ako po kasi tinawag ko sa bank na itaas yung limit for a day then binalik ko after kong magbayad

Wait mo na lang sir yung 190. Pero para sakin no need to cancel or refuse yung current ITA sa 189, hayaan mo na lang mag expire, malay mo makareceive ka na grant within that span. According naman sa news kakastart pa lang nila mag maghabol ng back logs. Baka masama na rin yung sa inyo this quarter.

I don't think it's insensitive and "money issues" should not be posted in forum suggestion is the one quite insensitive.
At the end of the day, we can conclude that even those who had lodged for visa still does not guarantee a grant. And no, I don't think it's selfish to create multiple EOI if you've been waiting for six months, one year or two year for a grant. It is still a personal decision and everyone has the right to secure a safe spot for themselves.
I suggest @songhyeky0 tama si sir @toyotafx with those options. Kung ready ka na financially to apply for second visa, grab the invite for 189 and wait which one will be granted first.

I haven't tried it. I just knew it from @eyburger that I don't need to do anything to turn down an invitation. Just let it expire.

Hello po,
May idea po ba kayo kung meron ng na-grant or refuse ng visa dahil umiinom ng prescribed meds for mental issue (ex. depression, anxiety, bipolar)?
Thank you po sa makakapagbigay ng feedback.

I think no issue naman po sa taking medications. But wag lang po yung signs ng laceration. May nabasa ako dati dito na bumagsak sa medical kasi meron syang self-inflicted lacerations sa wrist. Hopefully nobody else did this naman na po ๐

will the points change after getting the new assessment result? if not maybe you can wait for the result and lodge it (just beware of the 60 days lodging allowance) and upload also a cover letter saying that your initial skill assessment has expired while waiting for the invite, but nothing has changed in the points, even after securing a new valid skill assessment.

Hi Specter, sa akin, I paid thru BDO debit card of my sister. Tinawag lang ng ate ko sa BDO hotline to increase the limit para sa 4240aud payment. Just declare the reason which is for visa fee and they will process the limit increase. Around 6hrs lang naincrease na. Also, may OTP naman to confirm the payment kaya secured yung transaction.
