    @KG2 np sir. Yan lang yong sagot ni Maysie nong nag ask ako, iba kasi sagot ng IDP at sabi bayad ulit sa visa application fee. Ewan ko nagulohan ako hehe.

    Uu mabuti pa email mo si Maysie, nag.rereply naman sya agad. Di ko kilala si Nova pero nag rereply din sa email ko si Joanne de ala, pinoy din. IT course ko, sir.

    Di ko alam what will happen if may tuition fee increase. Most likely bayad sa increase sa nabasa ko sa Coe ko.

    My goodness sana naman dumating na email ko for medical tomorow, may flight pa kasi ako on wednesday to Manila. Sana dinggin lahat dasal natin ni Lord. :)
    Bai. Heto yung email nang IDP.

    If it wont come out after 22 July, we will have to request for deferment to the next intake from CDU and send to the Embassy the revised LO and COE and await for their decision on your visa. No need to repeat medical exam as this remains valid at the DIAC for 1 year.

    Love and care,



    Joke lang yung love and care ha...hahahaha

    No need to reapply for a new VISA. LO and CoE nalang kelangan. Yaiks!!! Hintay2 naman nang 7 months pag nangyari to!!! Booooo!!!
    Thank you sa info, bai KG2. Good to know di na kailangan mag reapply. Hahayz tagal pa ng 7 months. Sana di na tayo mag defer pa. Ok lang ba mag email sa DIAC to follow up sa medical exam notice. Wla pa akong email na nareceive to undergo medical tsk tsk. Last June 26 ko na receive yong acknowledgement text nila na they got my papers/application.

    @dadedidodu17 - yep kasi ganyan din ako dati hahaha, pagdating sa office, kakatamad magbasa ng sankaterbang email from client, minsan nakakaligtaan pa, whereas, kung noontime, at least relax na at madalang na ang pagdating ng email at medyo nakakapag-reply na, normally, if i have follow up from them on the same day, i can get a reply from them.. pero sana sa twing binabasa nila ang email, wag nilang lalong ibaon sa ang papeles ko..hahaha
