- then save, if you want to check all info or if you're not ready to pay yet
- then you will pay at the end (this is when it is considered an application has been lodged, remember you must to this within 60 days from invitation)
- after paying, you can upload your docs (anytime, until you have your CO)

Yun pala yun nasa website na info walang testcenter sa dull at test type kaya instead 18 length naging 14 lang. Kaya sa mga nagkamali katulad ko, don't panic pwede pa rin ang EOI natin no need to wait for it to expire and apply again. This mistake is considerable to lodge visa basta wag lang magbabago ang claim points and don't try to correct anything as is pa rin ang test reference number pag nagfill up ng form, just inform the case officer about the mistake.
That's it pansit. sharing this info coz this forum has also helped me Alot.
