    Hi po. Received pa din po status ko. Sinabi ko po sa agent ko na may part na iclick yung "I confirm" para magfurther assessment. But sabi po nya is para lang po yun sa mga hiningan ng addtl info. S56 po ata minimean nya.

    If acknowledged naman na ni immi yung application and received na ang status, possible ba na may namiss kami na step?

    Click "I confirm" then received status Or received muna talaga then may iclick pa na "I confirm"? Paadvice lang po. Thanks.

    Need nyo po mag call sa bank para e inform na magbayad ka ng certain to Australia baka po naka block.

    Check niyo rin po yung transaction limit. Usually may nakadefault lang na amount na maximum transaction. Better call your bank po.

    Last time I check, ung UnionBank Debit ko default 100k limit (under Bills Payment) lang siya. Buti na lang pwede baguhin sa app mismo, no need to call them. I adjusted it to 300k para sure.

    So that when I pay for my visa next next week, it'll be ready.

    Baka po may insight pa yung iba.

    PH Bank po ba ito? Same case kasi sakin pero credit card naman ang gamit ko. Dinedecline ni BDO yung transaction ko coz I'm not authorised to use it outside PH. You need their approval first. They've implemented additional security para iwas scam. Tama po yung advise ng iba, call your bank and tell them about it. Nakarecord yung failed transaction sa system nila. Need nila iapprove yung merchant and transaction amount.

    Hello. Please correct me if I'm wrong pero sa pagkakaintindi ko sa below link ay you actually have a choice to enter Australia as a tourist while you are waiting for a decision for a PR visa, meaning pag nakalodge na. You will have full working rights and be eligible to apply for interim medicare pag nag expire ang TV at mag activate ang BVA.

    ito yung nagpa-sold sakin, though. sa part ng transitioning to BV from TV, yan part na yan di sakin malinaw. but definitely pwede mag enter ng TV muna.

    Hello. Please correct me if I'm wrong pero sa pagkakaintindi ko sa below link ay you actually have a choice to enter Australia as a tourist while you are waiting for a decision for a PR visa, meaning pag nakalodge na. You will have full working rights and be eligible to apply for interim medicare pag nag expire ang TV at mag activate ang BVA.

    Is tourist visa processing madali lang? Like we cant work in that visa so need to BVB?

    same tayo intindi... wait ka rin iba opinions :)

    ito yung nagpa-sold sakin, though. sa part ng transitioning to BV from TV, yan part na yan di sakin malinaw. but definitely pwede mag enter ng TV muna.

    Is it worth it though?, specially further assessment na kami.? Parang gusto kong I explore pero feeling ko kasi malapit na yung grant. Haha

    Note: minimum TV validity is 3mos per entry. So bawal magwork for 3mos, tsaka pa lang mag aactivate ang BVA. (I might be wrong din)

    Ay di ko po sure. Unless kapareho siya ng health assessment na di na need pag may exisiting na valid.

    Hi, I need advise po sana. I was invited for SC189 last October 6.
    My PTE (Proficient) was dated (Oct 2021 - 1 year old result);
    I took PTE again for the 2nd time hoping for Superior Score, unfortunately, Proficient pa rin. This was Sep 2022 naman (1 month old result)

    Clear points:
    1. Ang nakalagay sa EOI kong PTE is yung Oct 2021 Results.
    2. Nabigyan ako ng ITA nang hindi ko naedit yung PTE Score.
    3. Same lang naman siya na 'Proficient' - Kaya no changes on points

    Question:

    1.** Anong ilalagay kong PTE result sa immiaccount?**

    a) Yung naka-declared sa EOI na Dated Oct 2021
    b) or Yung latest PTE (Dated Sep 2022) - Kasi ang nakalagay kasi sa immiaccount "Give details of the most recent English test." - eto yung nakakapagbigay sa kin ng dilemma.

    Thank youuu!

    Hi, I need advise po sana. I was invited for SC189 last October 6.
    My PTE (Proficient) was dated (Oct 2021 - 1 year old result);
    I took PTE again for the 2nd time hoping for Superior Score, unfortunately, Proficient pa rin. This was Sep 2022 naman (1 month old result)

    Clear points:
    1. Ang nakalagay sa EOI kong PTE is yung Oct 2021 Results.
    2. Nabigyan ako ng ITA nang hindi ko naedit yung PTE Score.
    3. Same lang naman siya na 'Proficient' - Kaya no changes on points

    Question:

    1.** Anong ilalagay kong PTE result sa immiaccount?**

    a) Yung naka-declared sa EOI na Dated Oct 2021
    b) or Yung latest PTE (Dated Sep 2022) - Kasi ang nakalagay kasi sa immiaccount "Give details of the most recent English test." - eto yung nakakapagbigay sa kin ng dilemma.

    Thank youuu!

    kung ano yung nasa EOI, yun pa rin iinput mo para consistent ka with EOI

    Hello.
    In case may naka encounter din ng error sa payment processing.
    I already changed the payment limits before making payment, but still have errors.

    Are there cases that the bank mismo nag block ng DHA? I'm not an IT techy person lols... nasearch ko lang minsan may bank hindi nila ina-allow overseas payment in case of fraud something...

    Need ba address mo sa bank account mismo, same as the cardholder's address and address sa immiaccount mo? Will it matter?

    nakakaGG to.. I used my BPI debit card then I have this error msg "Payment Failed Unspecified Failure"

    Sa mga nasa pinas, does anyone used BPI debit card? nag kaerror ba kayo?

    Tapos try ko POSB, SG bank account ko, "then Payment Failed Declined". I am thinking dahil wala na ako sa SG, hindi tinanggap ni DHA baka from money laundering na card lols

    Try ko din mag paypal, eh ayaw din, sabi find "alternative chuchu..." :s

    First time ever ko makaencounter nito.

    Just sharing baka may makahelp. :( thank you in advance

    I will also try to contact my banks.

    Same issue ko sa BPI, pinatry iactivate sakin yung E-Commerce access at increase purchase limit sa mobile app pero nageerror pa rin. Pinuntahan ko bank pero wala sila nagawa :/ ang sabi sakin by default daw kasi 20k lang ang limit at hindi nila maadjust lol ginamit ko na lang Paymaya ko gamit Virtual Card option.

    Hello everyone, for reference ng lahat ito po mga inupload kong documents.
    1. Skills Assessment, Evidence of: MSA Letter from EA
    2. Travel Document: Passport
    3. Birth/Age, Evidence of: Birth Cert and Drivers License
    4. Character History, Evidence of - Qatar: Qatar Police Clearance Certificate (uploaded 2 months after visa lodgement)
    5. Character History, Evidence of - Philippines: NBI
    6. Language Eligibility - English, Evidence of: PTE Result
    7. Qualifications - Overseas, Evidence of: Diploma, TOR, PRC ID and PRC Certificate
    8. Work Experience: COE, Payslip/Bank Statement, SSS, PAGIBIG, PHILHEALTH, Tax Returns, Job Contracts, Offer Letter, Company ID
    9. Other Documents: Form 80 and Form 1221 (uploaded days after visa lodgement - kasi diko alam kung saang category iuupload kaya nahuli talaga to at napagdesisyunan kong sa Other Docs na lang ilagay)

    Tips:
    1. Unahin nyong fillupan ung Form80/1221 para incase na magkamali kayo pede palitan at ung details nito kokopyahin nyo na lang kapag nag fillup na kayo online.
    2. Kapag tapos na kayo mag fill up online, wag basta basta mag proceed sa payment. Save your application at review ung mga ininput nyo kung tama. If possible, review nyo again the next day and next day para sure na sure na ung mga sagot. Remember we have 60days naman to submit so dont rush.
    3. For employment, residential, international movement - ginawa ko muna sa spreadsheet bago ko nilipat sa form 80/1221. Mahirap magkamali kaya aim natin na hindi ma CO Contact.

    @nashmacoy101 how about yung mga medical exam requirements sir? hinihingi na ba sa pre-invite yon?

    Usually hindi si DHA ang nag-fafail ng transaction kundi yung bank mo. Same case with me but with BDO credit card. I've called them multiple times kasi hindi automatic nag rereflect sa kanila yung failed transaction (parang may 1 day ka pang aantayin). Wala masyado nagawa yung customer service ng BDO, so nagrequest ako na i-transfer ako sa credit card dept. Sila nagasikaso sa issue ko with failed transaction. Inapprove nila yung merchant (DHA) and yung amount transaction. Try mo tawagan ulit yung bank mo at mangulit ngulit ka lang. may iba kasing customer support na di masyado familiar sa ganyang issue.

    Yes sis. New medicals and PCC and form 80. Sana nga this year. Hahha ang tagal na naming nag aantay! ❤️

    Wow nagmove na yung application niyo. Congrats po. Hula ko. November kayo na magrant hehe. Parang grabe rin yung ginawa sa application niyo, parang nahulog ang docs niyo and nilagay sa huli. Gumastos pa kayo ulit ng additional fees.

    Dami kong ginawang pagpapapansin sa totoo lang. 6 times ako sumulat... 2 times ako tumawag sa hotline. Hahha nadinig ng Diyos yung panalangin namin..

    Ang gusto ata pang Band 9 na writing and speaking. Hehe. Joke lang po. Napapaisip ako, bakit kaya ayaw pa iproceed yung application mo. Kumpleto ka naman na. Yung CO contact mo pa hindi mo pa kasalanan. Congrats po.

    Dami backlogs ata tlaga. Nung tumawag ako mababait naman e.. Talaganv sobrang damj langbnaming naiwan.. And usually daw two months kung walang bumalik na CO after Co contact, yun na daw un. Waiting nalang ng grant.

    Yeheeey! Grant na next news nyan!! Praying for you @ga2au!

    Hello. Please correct me if I'm wrong pero sa pagkakaintindi ko sa below link ay you actually have a choice to enter Australia as a tourist while you are waiting for a decision for a PR visa, meaning pag nakalodge na. You will have full working rights and be eligible to apply for interim medicare pag nag expire ang TV at mag activate ang BVA.

    https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/entering-and-leaving-australia/travelling-and-your-visa/travel-while-your-visa-is-being-processed#:~:text=You can apply for a,temporary visa matches your intentions.

    Is tourist visa processing madali lang? Like we cant work in that visa so need to BVB?

    Yung TV ng parents ko:
    Lodged - Aug 10
    Biometrics - Aug 17 (earliest available)
    Visa Grant - Aug 19

    So do u think we still need biometrics kahit may ongoing application?

    Oo nga Ma'am baka ma CO contact na naman kayo kasi di pa niya isinama ang biometrics hehe. Tumagal na naman hay.

    Pero kung ito ang basis. Hindi na dapat kayo magbiometrics kasi matagal niyo na nilodge.

    https://philippines.embassy.gov.au/mnla/home.html

    From 04 April 2022, visa applicants in the Philippines must complete biometric (face photograph and fingerprint scan) collection for each application lodged, irrespective of their nationality, unless they are excluded or exempt from the biometric program.

    Biometrics are collected through a quick and easy process that captures a photograph of your face and a 10-digit electronic fingerprint. Applicants will be required to provide their biometrics each and every time they apply for a visa.

    When you lodge your application online, you will be sent a request to provide personal identifiers (biometrics) via email. You should make an appointment to attend an Australian Biometrics Collection Centre (ABCC) in person to provide your biometrics. Take a copy of that email and your passport to the appointment.

    You must provide your biometrics within 14 days of online lodgement or notify the relevant visa processing office if unable to do so.

    VFS Global operates two ABCCs in the Philippines (in Manila and Cebu). The ABCC will charge a service fee for the collection of biometrics.

    For more information about biometric collection procedures, fees charged, contact details, ABCC locations, or to book your biometrics appointment, please visit Welcome to VFS Global| vfsglobal.

    *Please note that applicants who lodged between 4 April and 21 April 2022 may no longer be required to provide biometrics. Australia’s Department of Home Affairs has emailed applicants where biometric collection has been waived.
