Ipalag nyo na 190 habang maluwag pa. Sa 189 halos 3 mos na sila walang invite, mukang inubos na nila yung invites last year.

Sa SG rin ako, Eunos hehe. Kayo po ung main applicant o ung husband nyo? May bearing ba sa application pag umuwi sa Pinas at dun na lang hintayin ang grant, like mag-resign at umuwi kung ikaw ang main applicant?

@erinp si husband po main,, dependent lng ako, tingin ko wala naman po bearing pag umuwi ng pinas at ng resign kaya lng di mkaresign si husband ipon daw muna sya funds kung sakali lumabas ang grant para my budget pag mag bm po, then pag my grant na kung saka sakali mag 1 month notice daw sya agad sa work hehe,, sana nga ma approve n tau para less anxiety gabi2 n lng ng iisip kung anu ba outcome hehe or libangin n lnd din ang sarili para di mainip..

Hi po. Ask po ako question. βΊοΈ
May CO contact po kame ng Feb 21, asking for additional documents regarding sa evidence of relationship to your spouse dahil hindi daw po kame same ng address sa forms. Yung nasubmit po namin form 80 different address pa po, 1 month after po kasi namin kinasal may invite na. Nag update na po ako ng ID na same address kame as a proof na we are living together. Ask ko po kung kailangan ko mag update sa immiaccount ng address at name? Worry ko po baka ma question na iba na address at name ko sinubmit kong ID, hindi na same sa immiaccount.
Thank you very much po. π₯°

Mag attach lang po kayo ng marriage cert nyo sa evidence of relationship then kung magkaiba naman po ang passport name nyo sa married name, attach nyo ulit marriage cert as evidence sa change of name. Make sure na dineclare nyo din yung married name nyo sa form as other names

Kahit po hindi na muna ako mag change sa passport kahit inupdate ko yung sa immiaccount?

kapag family po ba (may asawa and 1 anak) kelangan kumuha ng english test ang partner? or pwede akong mag apply as single applicant para maka 10 pts?
Joined: Nov 29, 2022
Di po makakaclaim ng single if married or in de facto. If mag english test ang spouse 5pts po and 5pts if may skill assessment. If no proof of functional english ang spouse you will pay the same amount ng visa payment niyo or more than that (I forgot the exact amount).

Thank you po sa pagsagot. pag c husband ko po ay 53 yrs old na, pwede pa po ba ang skills assesment nya? isang tanong pa po,pag sa 491 visa po ba ako na approve, after 3 yrs pa po pwede maka apply ng PR? or 3 yrs na may trabaho po duon? medyo crucial na po kase ang case ko kase 40yrs old na po ako.

DIY din po EOI mo? anu po documents ang inattached mo? kasama na po ba documents ng dependant (kids)? anu po time line from submitting EOI to receiving Invite?
Joined: Feb 24, 2022
Hi! Yes, DIY lang po ako sa EOI ko (and lodgement) for subclass 189. Wala pong kailangan na documents na i-aattach sa EOI. Pero kailangan po na on hand na po ung documents niyo like english exam, passport, skills assessment etc kasi 'yung mga details po na nasa documents na ito yung ilalagay niyo sa EOI niyo. Ang EOI po ay parang form lang po na sasagutan niyo. Single application po ako, walang dependents. Timeline ko po, Nov 13, 2022 ang EOI. ITA is Dec 8, 2022.

Walang specific timeline from submitting your EOI(s) to receiving an invite. It really depends sa points, state (if state nomination ka, 491 or 190), and other criteria. All the best, hope you get an invite kaagad, mukhang yun ang trend naman now
