    @RamBuToy brad pwede na magpa medicals ahead, para mas mabilis yung processing ase 3-5 working days pa din ma forward ng clinic to the DIBP... nakita mo yung 'organise your health exam/requirements' basta may organise dun sa list of docs na recommended and required sa immi account? organise mo na yun para makuha mo yung HAP id nyo and referral letter. ;-)
    @RamBuToy all the best! ;-)

    @RamBuToy - Tsong, yung "front load", ibig sabihin eh i-a-upload mo na agad yung mga document bago pa man hingin ng Case Officer.

    Usually naman na ni-fro-frontload, ayon sa threads, ay Form 80, Payslips, Police Clearance, Medical etc...

    Karamihan sa mga na-gra-grantan ng maaga ay nag-fro-frontload na ng mga documents since wala nang kailangan pang requirements yung CO para i-grant ka ng Visa.

    All the best mate!

    @alexia02 - mate! Halos pareho pala tayo ng timeline.

    Nandito rin ako sa Singapore at yung Police Clearance ko rito, nakapag-request ako maaga nung June 27, kahit wala pang referral letter from CO. Ang dinala ko lang ay yung Visa Summary/Confirmation from my ImmiAccount. Tinanggap naman nila. S$55 yung fee.

    Sa July 18 ko makukuha yung sa akin. Try nyo rin na mag-apply na ng Police Clearance rito sa SG dahil mga 3 weeks ang processing nila.

    Mga kapatid, biglang nawala ang "organize your health examination" link sa ImmiAccount ko at napalitan nito:
    "No health examinations are required for this person for this visa subclass based on the information provided to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection."
    Actually, na-umpisahan ko na yung medical nung Lunes so hindi ako sure kung ang ibig sabihin nito ay nai-submit na ng clinic (Point Medical) yung exam result ko o baka binago nila. Hindi ako sure.

    May naka-experience rin ba sa inyo nito? Thanks in advance mga kaberks!

    @key_ren - Kita ko na! Sa eMedical client, kailangan palang i-click yung Print Information Sheet button then lalabas na yung completed exam result.

    Dun sa generated Information Sheet, naka-indicate na kahapon ni-upload ng Point Medical ang exam result ko. :)

    Salamat ulit kapatid for sharing :) Big help sa akin, nabawasan ang pag-aalala ko hehe.
