I'm not sure about the importance of authentication sa DFA or NSO sa Pinas, but the requirements in AU is Certified True Copy. So meaning kahit na authenticated pa yang mga documents mo ng DFA, kelangan ipaCTC mo pa rin yan, that's what I did. Pakiclarify na lang po sa ibang mga experts dito.
Ang CE draftsperson po ay open pa ata sa halos lahat ng states, so mas maganda kung visa subclass 189 na yung kuhanin nyo.
As for the PTA, nagavail din ako ng service na ito kasi dko sure kung ilang points ang pwede kong iclaim sa education since nasa section 2 ang school ko. Sa PTA nakaindicate kung comparable ito sa AU bachelor degree so mas advisable na iavail mo na rin ito. Konti lang naman ang idadagdag mo sa bayad. Parang $80aud ata, dko lang maalala.
I hope makatulong, magtanong ka lang kung may mga kelangan ka pang iclarify. Pero medyo busy lang kasi lately kaya di ako madalas makabisita dito.
