    ang dami ngyari sa saglit kong nawala..

    @pepper tawag ka sa idp manila, ito num nila: 8160755 local 116 sbihin mo lahat sa councilor mo ngyari sa application mo. even ung affidavit ng proof of funds kasi may copy sila na iedit mo lang tas un na ipa-pass mo.

    @chill_ice kelan daw nirefer sa MOC ung sau? may binigay na date? go lang sa interview. paghandaan mo, at least nasabihan ka. ung iba ata biglaan lang. and good thing na-priority ung medical mo.. mkapag-email nga ulit sa knila by augus

    @caiomhe10 according sa idp no need ng proof of funds kahit may dependent kang kasama. may agency ka ba?

    @PampangasBest papuntahin mo si uncle mo sa lawyer, tell him to get an affidavit of support. The lawyer knows what to do. Ang kelangan from your uncle is an afidavit of support, proof of funds(bank statement) and proof of income(employment cert or biz permit). Nakalagay sa affidavit of support na yung uncle mo will shoulder your/and your dependents expenses during your duration of stay/study sa OZ) - yung sa akin nga nilagay pa ang course pero masters in nursing nilagay. Inokeyhan lang sa IDP. If I were you, I would seek assistance nalang sa IDP, but do it fast kasi sa dami nang clients, medyo mabagal ang exchange/relay nang communications with IDP as middleman. Yan lang yung disadvantage sa IDP. Best of luck sa application niyo! :)

    @pepper - may bayad na ang IDP? bakit ganun? dahil ba 2nd attempt niyo na sa application? or nagbago na talaga sila and nag chacharge na? pepper PM mo email mo sa akin padala ko sayo sample affidavit ko...or wait...try kong ipost

    Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)

    The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

    John 14:14

    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

    hi all. maglolodge na po kami ng visa namin... just want to ask re. my passport info. yung name ko kasi doon maiden name pa. my husband wanted to change it to his surname. eh may offer letter na from the school under my maiden name? Any suggestion? pwede bang ang visa ko under my maiden name tapos pa change of name ako sa passport after?
    @bbgirl @tenseako - share ko lang..
    - sa PR visa application it doesn't matter kung maiden...
    - maiden name (not changing to married name) is independent of your marital status
    - you can declare na married ka, but have been using maiden name..
    - there are other nationalities na hindi naman talaga nag papalit ng maiden name kahit married na sila... so why would that be an issue..

    so my opinion, that should be okay.. use your maiden name, but declare status as "married"...
    your marriage certificate is enough proof that you are indeed married..
    you can continue to use your maiden....

    on the changing to married name in your passport "AFTER" visa grant.
    - sa PR visa applications, may form na pwede fill-upan to change details of passport
    - para ma update nila system ng DIAC, at hindi ka magkaproblem sa immigration..

    so im assuming if this is applicable sa student visa...
    to confirm.. check your friendly student visa advisor.. ;)
