I guess depende na po sa inyo kung saan mas mura, and mas maganda reputation. Importante naman po kasi is registered sila sa MARA. Yun sa place kung saan ilo-lodge ang visa, I'm not really sure ang natatandaan ko lang important is when the decision is being made, dapat wala ka sa Australia. I'm not really sure kasi since online naman ang application ngayon usually. Kindly check po sa www.immi.gov.au. Under visa options, meron dun series of links eh na nagtatanong if outside or inside Australia ka.

Tingin ko wala nman po yun kung saan ka nag-lodge. Kasi mo meron priority level of processing per visa type.

1) Request Documents or Info
2) Request for information - Detailed Information
3) Form Character reqs penal clearance certificates
4) Form 1071i Health Requirements(permanent entry)
My questions are:
1) Our online status has changed to ABPF pero sa mga documents "Required" pa din ang nakalagay. Sa email naman ni CO, medical and NBI clearance lang naman ang hinihingi nya based sa file na Request for information - Detailed Information. Does it mean na ok na yung ibang documents namin and medical and NBI na lang ang kulang?
2) Dun sa Request Documents or Info, may ganitong sinulat si CO, "I have begun considering your application for this visa and require additional information or
documents. A summary of the information required for each applicant is provided in the attached Request Checklist. More detailed information about each of the requirements is included in the Request for Information - Detailed Information attachment."
Pero wala naman po syang attachment na Request Checklist. Yun kaya yung nasa online na nakalista na "Document Checklist"? Or nakalimutan lang nya i-attach yung sinasabi nyang checklist?
3) Bakit nga pala sa online checklist, si primary applicant lang may nakalagay na passport number? Si secondary applicant walang passport number. Example:
Person 1 Name: Juan Dela Cruz
Date of birth: 01 January 1880 Passport No: AB1234567
Person 2 Name: Maria Dela Cruz
Date of birth: 01 February 1880
Ganyan din ba sa inyo? Matagal ko na sya napansin, nakalimutan ko lang magtanong agad if ganyan din sa secondary applicants nyo, walang passport number?

Oraayyttt!! Ibig sabihin nasa tail end na ng June ang processing, sana mag pickup ulit ang speed pag naubos ang mga may and june applications! Question - kapag hiningan ka ba ng medical and nbi clearance ibig sabihin ok na yung misubmit mo na docs when you lodged un application - like barring any incident sa medical and police clearance e ok ka na dapat? Or di pa din nila narereview yown?

Wala din ako ng Required Checklist na attachment na yan so I ignored it na lang kasi sabi dun please refer to the Request for Information - Detailed Information, which only lists Health Requirements and Character Requirement, meaning Medicals and NBI (plus COC from other countries where you stayed) na lang ang additional documents needed.

hanapin mo ang attachment sa ibang email ng CO mo. Yung sakin naka 3 times nag message ang CO same message, pero sa 3rd message nandun ang attachments.
ang advice ko lang, kung may may hindi ka naiintindihan, wag kang matatakot o mahihiyang magtanong sa CO mo, siempre you ask him/her politely Napaka-accommodating naman ng lahat ng CO. Don't forget to express "thank you" or appreciation for every instructions or replies to you. Yung CO ko dati from team 6, ang bilis ng reply every time na may question ako or queries. Sobrang napaka-friendly nya at efficient.
you've reached that far, let me congratulate you for a VISA GRANT very very soon.
