@chewychewbacca sorry for confusion I was referring to CPAA. how we can send the result to them, kasi need ng proof for English proficiency pag nag pa assess for qualification.

Can't you print off the results and send it to them?

tobz

@batman yep sa PTE account ko, send report tapos, nag search ako CAANZ/ICAA then lumabas naman sya so click ko then nagnotify via email na nasend yung report sa CAANZ/ICAA.

@chewychewbacca ang question ata ni @batman ay how to send PTE scores to CPAA tama po ba sir?

@batman Sa pte account po dun meron na "send scores" above nung view score ata yun sa right side. I checked the list of institutions, just choose Australia po for the location then type CPA tapos lalabas yung "CPA Australia - All Programs - All Programs". The registered location is Southbank, VIC, AUS. I checked CPAA website, same address nga ung head office address nila so I guess this is where you should send your PTE-A scores po.

batman

@mimic hindi pede print out. should be coming from the test provider directly to assessing body.
@tobz and @allej yea got it now. could be some computer glitch yesterday as it show not found.

@chewychewbacca ako bahala na kung sinong mauna..I don't have relatives in Australia, friends lang sa Sydney and Melbourne pero mas gusto ko kasi sa Melbourne laid back..

Wow ang selan nila. Pero at least tumatangap ng PTE. Thanks sa info.\

@tobz nasa Sydney ako pero I love Melbourne sooo much. Definitely more laid back

allej

@mimic How long have you been staying po in Sydney? I'm still undecided if Syd or Melby. Ano pong major factors why you love Melb more than Syd? Nagstay lang po ako sa Sydney for 3months but I haven't been to Melby. Nagbabasa basa lang ako which city is better..

chewychewbacca

@tobz Mag Team Sydney ka na!! Hahaha Parang wala may gusto sa Sydney. Ang konti namin. ) Ako sa totoo gusto ko lang ng ITA. 2 months na ako nag aantay.

chewychewbacca

@allej Girl, wag mo ako iiwan sa Sydney! )

allej

batman

Almost 6 years na ako dito sa Sydney. Been in Melbourne 3 times. It's just more relax. Like people are always rushing here in Sydney. When they get their coffee almost no hello. My experience in Melbourne is good, random people will suddenly just say hi (friendly, not nakakabastos lol).

If you love warm weather ang beaches, Sydney. Melbourne is always rainy, there's like 4 seasons in a day haha. If you're an outgoing person who loves being in a rush (like Manila-ish) definitely Syndey. I'm more of a loner so I like Melbourne. And they are very artistic there, the taste of music and style is more independent. Here in Sydney, most people, they follow the mainstream. IMO, food is also a bit better in Melbourne but still expensive

tobz

@chewychewbacca and @allej ITA lang din ang gusto ko hehehehe..

tobz

@mimic nung nagvisit ako sa Aus last year, mas nagustuhan ko yung Melbourne than Sydney..

allej

@tobz gaano katagal po kayo sa both cities? hindi ko pa kasi navisit melb..

sama sama na tayo sa pag aantay ng ITA. ntraffic lang.

allej

@mimic thank you for sharing your experience!

chewychewbacca

@batman Okay na idea yan tapos yung mga andun na and nakapunta mag share nf experiences sa Sydney. Gagawa ako kapag may ITA na ako. )

chewychewbacca

@allej Alam mong ramdam ko rin yan! )

batman

@chewychewbacca may ITA ka na diba, kaya gawa ka na. Wala pa lang ang official e mail. "Positivity"

chewychewbacca

@batman True story! Medyo kapagod rin kasi mag antay ITA pero tama ka, I need to start being positive again.

batman

@chewychewbacca okay lang yan. isipin mo na lang at least ikaw ITA na lang antay. yung iba nga struggle pa sa English language requirement. (myself)

note to self: ok lang yan at least ako English requirement na my chance pa. yung ibang nga walang tsinelas naka paa lang. hahaha loko lang.

Makaryo

Would likw to join Aug batch, hoping na makakuha rin ng invite sa August. Pag mag update ba tau sa EOI natin bali un na ung bagong date as reference kung kylan tau ng submit ng EOI?

chewychewbacca

@batman Hahahahahaha Tawang-tawa ako. Pati mga walang tsinelas nadamay. ) Let's both keep praying for patience and wisdom.

Hi @mimic ! Natanggap na ng kaibigan ko yung para sa NBI. Pinagbayad pa siya ng 100 para sa customs fee daw. tsktsk. Hindi ko gets bakit chinarge ng customs ang dokumento na technically gobyerno dapat ang nagaasikaso.

mimic

@mjcrena Binalaan ko din mama ko sa tax na yan. Tinanung ko siya, wala naman atang siningil sakanya. Ang kurakot nila!

One more thing dun sa NBI thread, si Cassey siningil 1500 para marelease same day. Hindi sila nagbayad. Kurakot! Kita daw kasi nila blue form so from overseas.

mimic

@mjcrena question, ipapasend back mo pa ba and ibabalik sa consulate here in Australia or papa-scan mo lang sa friend mo?

Nung nagsubmit ako last year hindi ko man binalik sa consulate, na-approve naman 485 visa ko. Although this time PR kasi baka mas strict?

Kasi papaFedex Express ko kay mama, 3000PHP para makuha ko by Monday at ibalik sa consulate dito. Eh kung pwedeng scan nalang, sayang yung pera, ang mahal.

mjcrena

@mimic Tsktsk hanep talaga kakurakot. buti sana kung galing din sa kurakot ang pinangbabayad natin. sabihan ko din kaibigan ko na 200 lang dapat bayaran nya sa NBI.

Yung 100, hinayaan ko na lang, inisip ko na lang na tumapon kape ko. Kaya pala ayaw nilang iwanan sa reception lang kasi maniningil silang 100 kasi nakalagay dun sa sobre na Australia Post. nakakabanas lang talaga.

mjcrena

@mimic actually tinanong ko yan sa Consulate, kelangan daw nila icounter sign so kelangan daw ibalik pa dito. halos P10k nga aabutin para lang sa lintik na NBI clearance. Pero kung tinanggap naman sayo e, baka pwede na siguro hindi ibalik.
