    **Applied Overseas clearance in advance with projected CO allocation by May 1st-2nd week

    2012.06.01 - Medical finalised (me)
    2012.06.01 - Visa Granted! Finish line! woohooo!!!

    Learning points along the way
    1. Request ng COE's and other docs sa former company,
    request na rin ng additional docs payslips, SSS, ITR, etc
    -> ang ginawa ko COE muna for Skills assessment tapos
    saka pa lang yung additional docs. pabalik-balik sayang sa oras,
    pagod, at load kakatawag

    2. Overseas PCC's
    -> since nabasa ko na sa forum na matagal nga NBI clearance
    sinabay ko na nung umuwi ako, tapos pina-claim na lang sa kamag-anak
    Swak yung estimated the time kung kelan possible na macontact ng CO,
    na-estimate ko po kung kelan ako magka-CO dahil sa forum na ito

    3. Qualifications:
    -> ilang araw ako na-praning dito, kasi walang AQF sa assessment letter ko
    so to be sure kumuha ko ng point advice test with Vetassess for my qualification
    Eventually sayang kasi hinde pala kelangan! Toinks! Sayang A$230+ ko :(
    Hanggang ngayon wala pa rin results si Vetassess, sayang talaga, tsk tsk
    Kung may Bachelor Degree & TOR po kayo, ok na daw po yun.

    4. Medicals
    -> hinde totoo yung 2-3 days! hahaha nakakapraning ito!
    sa wife ko finalised na agad 1 working day after mareceive
    pero ako 5 days after pa, napapaisip ako kung may sakit ba ko or kung ano man

    5. Pray and have patience :)

    anyways pasensya na mahaba, salamat din sa pagsagot ng mga tanong ko
    sana makatulong naman to sa inyo :)
    congrats bro... :)
