    @jaero How I wish Sir pero sobrang malayo pa kami... In fact, we still don't have a clue as to whether uusad yung application namin. We are currently waiting for the results sa CPA Australia before we can proceed any further.

    Hopefully wala naman show stopper sa pangarap namin mag-asawa... :)

    Actually, you're on the fun part of the process. Makailang beses nagtatatalon sa tuwa ako (rather, ang misis ko) noong nakapasa ako ng assessment, then IELTS, then state sponsorship, then recently, the invite. Namnamin mo na yan dahil kaba na ang papalit kapag palipad na kayo doon.

    @Ian, welcome here sa forum bro...

    I cannot be able to tell you the exact amount you will be paying all in all but I can give you some rough estimate based on experience. Take note that for every difference skills assessing body, iba iba din ang price. I would assume na taga SG ka noh?

    IELTS - SGD310 (SGD 300 daw sa IDP)
    CPA Australia Assessment - AUD 475
    (if ma-invite ka to apply for visa) Visa Processing Fee - AUD 3,060
    Medicals - around 100 to 200 SGD
    PCC - less than 100 SGD

    Did I miss out anything? :) You also need to factor in fees for securing your documents, postage, notarization, etc...

    Easily aabot lahat lahat ng more than SGD5,000 - it could go higher significantly if you will pay for the service of a migration agent. :)

    @rylynn statutory declaration po ang kailngan.. you can read other related threads on visa application, yung iba kinailangan din ito dahil di sila mabigyan ng COE
    to add to the above @rylynn - just get a certificate of employment from your employer and make sure that your tenure with the firm is indicated there as well as your function role (i.e. audit senior, audit assistant manager, etc...) - if you can be able to include the words "full-time" and your salary, this would make things a bit better.

    The more details you have there, the better...

    And yes the statutory declaration; I used the below format, feel free to use it as reference and just change the wordings as needed.
    I, XXXX, born on XX XXXX, 19XX, holding Passport EBXXXXXXX, do solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm that:I was a full time employee of XXXXXX from XXXXXX to XXXXXXX. I was assigned under the XXXXXX where I held the positions of XXXXXX during my tenure with the company.

    I have attached herein various various documents issued by the company to evident the same i.e. Certificate of Employment, Salary Pay slips,I declare that I am unable to provide an employment reference letter with detailed job scope on company letter head from XXXXXX as company policy only allows HR to provide a standard Certificate of Employment. This said document does not include any mention of my specific job scope.

    Furthermore I declare that I cannot be able to secure a testimonial from previous line managers as all of them are no longer connected with XXXX.To the best of my knowledge, I have outlined the below which were the specific tasks and responsibilities assigned to me during my tenure with XXXXXX.

    JOB DESCRIPTION HERE:
    Make sure you have this notarized by a lawyer! :)

    You can get this from the SG Police HQ at Cantonment - however since non-citizen normally are not given PCC, you will have to wait for the CO to request one for you.

    @mandand : As far as I know, yes kailangan si CO before SG PCC.

    NBI clearance is a bit complicated - the process I know is that you need to go to the PH embassy first to get them to help you imprint your fingermarks in a sheet. You will have to send this out to a relative in Pinas for them to process. When you get your clearance, you need to return this to the Phil Embassy for some formalities. >> Not too sure on this but this is as far as i know... TEDIOUS, I know but no choice!!

    I would be happy to be proven wrong on the NBI Clearance Process as an easier way would be beneficial for all of us! :)
