    @peach17 kaya nga eh. I'm hoping na that applies only to the new applications. Sana yung mga nakapag-lodge ng January djn pa naman affected. Fingers crossed. :)


    sana nga sis @abc27. if 10 weeks kasi, aabutin na kami ng April.
    tagal no? last year ang bilis nila magka CO... hehe

    @peach17 oo nga eh, swerte ng nga nag-lodge last year. But it's not that bad for us, at least mga less than 3 months Lang ang processing unlike sa ibang countries which could take 6 mos or more.
    Ganyan talaga guys... When we got an invite last October, invitations issued for 189 visas were per month was 2000 lang. Ngayon ata nasa 3000/month na - given the fact that (1) the holiday season in December, (2) increase in number of invites and (3) assuming constant and number of CO; it is just natural talaga na tataas ang lead time bago ma process ang application.

    But still, let's consider ourselves lucky, ang mga Pakistani mas matagal sa kanila as a result of additional security checks. The waiting time could be more than a year.

    nabasa ko dun sa allocation table, yung change from 7 weeks to 10 weeks last Feb 8 is because Priority Group 4 was affected daw by the increase in Priority Group 3 applications

    @viperbuzz12 - if I am to make a comment noh, i think it would be better to have your health check done. reason why i am saying is that since may history yung hubby mo ng TB, there is a higher chance na ma refer sya and it will take several months bago ito ma clear.

    by doing it now, you can save at least a few wks of waiting dito...

    just my 2 cents!!


    Hi @psychoboy, ibig sabihin po ba kung may medical history ang applicant, better to schedule the medical exam early than wait for the CO allocation date?

    mga ilang months po ba sa pagkakaalam nyo nappunta sa Referred status and ilang months bago ma clear?

    I really don't know... There is a separate thread here re referred medical status; I did not bother looking at that kasi we were fortunate naman na okey ang medicals. It could take a few months I heard.

    What I am saying is that, if may medical history, it might become referred hence if gusto mo mapabilis ang processing, you can opt to do it earlier than when the CO request for it.

    Hope this somehow helps...

    There is a separate thread for your NBI from Abroad - you can get further details there... :)

    Pag nagmdical ka na po ba good sign na un or possible pa din madeny? - if you have some sickness or medical finding na very bad, it can be a ground for visa refusal.

    @lock_code2004
    hi @lock_code2004! Yep, we have all completed our health exams. According to Nationwide naman, okay yung results ng dad ko (except of course that he has high sugar and high blood pressure). But they also told me that sometimes, kahit okay ang findings nila, Aus immigration might still require some tests. I did not go ahead with my plan of withdrawing my dad as a dependent na because na-upload na pala yung health result nya by the time my CO emailed me last Fri. Nakakaba but pray na lang kami for the best.
    thanks.. but did your CO say na pwede tlaga i-withdraw your dad as part of your application (if ever hindi pa uploaded ang medical results)?
    im asking kasi we are also planning to include our mother sa application ng kapatid ko..

    goodluck po.. hopefully walang maging problema at visa grant na yan..
    I actually have not asked my CO yet if I can still withdraw my dad's application at this stage. Although last week, sa email nya (medicals uploaded already), she mentioned that if he really is not a dependent of my family unit, the health requirement won't be necessary. As of today, status of my dad's medicals is not yet finalised, which according to my CO could either mean that the results may be referred further or simply awaiting conclusion. Up to the doctor na daw. Pag na-refer ba how many months usually before mafinalize? Medyo confused ako what to do now. If iwithdraw ko na yung dependent ko or wait if ma-refer? Di kaya napakasigurista naman ang dating nun? Or would they understand, considering na malaking investment at trabaho na din nagawa namin sa application? Thanks and God bless us all po.

    @mariamorris - thanks for the info..

    anu po ba ang objective nyo sa pagsama ng father nyo sa application as "dependent but not migrating"?, kukunin nyo po ba sya later? kasi kung hindi namn po, baka hindi nmn po worth it na i-gamble nyo ang buong application nyo..

    if you want, just ask your CO, kung until when/or pwde ba talaga i-withdraw, before they make their decision on your application.. but if you really believe na okay nmn ang health nya, that will be a big risk.

    kasi ung sa amin, isasama namin ang mother as a migrating dependent (not yet final depende pa kung okay ang annual check up nya)..

    regarding "Medicals Referred" status, meron pong separate thread..

    Hi @engr_maylene052581:) I think it's your right to know your status. If you're hiring an agent, ask mo na lang sila from time to time. Or kung possible, hingin mo yung online credentials. Dapat pwede mo rin makuha yon. :)

    @engr_maylene052581 - assuming all your details are correct I don't see ma-reject ang application mo pwere nalang if you have a very big problem sa medical mo or may criminal records ka previously.

    How I know is that if may migration agent ka, all communications from DIAC/State are coursed through the MARA agent. Hindi ka pwede dumiretso sa DIAC/State and ask questions.

    It is logical that they MIGHT check your previous employer - this is to ensure that hindi totoo ang nilalagay mo... :)

    Thanks po... Talaga po bang matagal ang pag approved? Kahit wala ka pang CO pede na nila irequest medical mo? And kelan mo po masabi na tuloy tuloy na ang visa mo? If nagrequest na sila ng medical or may assigned CO ka na? Tnx
    As per experience of those who applied recently, mejo matagal na ngayon at compared to 3 months back perhaps.

    If you backread, there are other who opted to do their medicals prior to it being requested by CO (kami, we did not wait for the request of the CO) while ang iba naman hinihintay until magrequest ang CO.

    And kelan mo po masabi na tuloy tuloy na ang visa mo? - until makuha mo na yung visa grant email mo.

    @mariamorris - thanks for the info..

    anu po ba ang objective nyo sa pagsama ng father nyo sa application as "dependent but not migrating"?, kukunin nyo po ba sya later? kasi kung hindi namn po, baka hindi nmn po worth it na i-gamble nyo ang buong application nyo..

    if you want, just ask your CO, kung until when/or pwde ba talaga i-withdraw, before they make their decision on your application.. but if you really believe na okay nmn ang health nya, that will be a big risk.

    kasi ung sa amin, isasama namin ang mother as a migrating dependent (not yet final depende pa kung okay ang annual check up nya)..

    regarding "Medicals Referred" status, meron pong separate thread..
    http://www.pinoyau.info/discussion/840/medicals-referred-to-medical-officer-of-the-commonwealth-moc#Item_168
    Thanks @lock_code2004. Actually yes, yun po ang reason ko sa pagsama sa kanya sa application para if ever kukunin ko sya later on, baka di na super hirap at haba ng process. BTW, Nationwide just informed us this afternoon that referred nga medicals nya, though ophthalmologist lang naman. I hope yun na yun, para hindi na sya pa balik2 pa sa clinic. We will probably ride this out na lang and wait for his medicals to be finalized. Pray lang talaga kami na maging okay ang lahat.

    wow, nakikita pala ng clinic ang status ng medical nyo? thats a good thing..
    atleast okay nmn po pala.. mukhang hindi nmn ganun ka-big deal kung opthalmologist lang ang issue kung bakit deferred ang medical nya.. medyo may backlog ang MOH ngaun..
    around 2-3 months ang processing ng "referred" status..

    so relaks lang muna.. pray pray!
    balitaan nyo po kmi.. goodluck!!

    if i may answer, as long as kaya mo naman patunayan ung claimed points mo at magiging ok ang medical mo, i dont think magkakaroon k ng problema sa application.

    based sa ibang mga forumers dito, meron daw cases na talgang they verify your previous employments through Australian embassies sa mga iba ibang mga bansa.

    bilis nga!! :)

    request ka na ng PCC sa may Cantonment... this will take some time and ask them IF YOU CAN JUST PICK IT UP YOURSELF.

    it will save you at least a week on that as you can just scan it and send to CO.

    @viperbuzz12 - tama ka, kailangan ng endorsement; your CO should have provided you with that. if i remember correctly it was send in a separate email. double check the emails you have with your CO, if wala request for it nalang.

    by right, alam na nila ito...
