SG Base ba kayo ? You have to go through the embassy website - appointment - then go through the process - it may take a while yung balik ng NBI cert.
If PH ,appointment lang sya online but you need to appear face to face. Depends sa checks na gagawin pag walang similar names at the same day mo makukuha yung NBI, pag may duplicate na pangalan or kapangalan ka - it takes 10 days to process bago makuha .

For migration purposes all PCCs are considered expired after 12 months from issuance. You will need to apply again.

hindi mo kelangan mag-update. nag out of the country din ako twice while waiting for the grant but I never updated my application. I had no issues naman in the end.
MY ROAD TO AUSTRALIAN PR
Nominated Occupation: Architectural Draftsperson - ANZSCO 312111 (Offshore)
2020
Jan 20: Since I’m DIYing it, I started researching and learning the whole process.
Feb 22: VETASSESS – I started gathering all required documents.
Apr 25: VETASSESS – I finished gathering all my documents. I created my account and started filling up the Skills Assessment for General Occupation Application.
Apr 29: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents. I started uploading the required documents. I decided not to include my first work in the Philippines because I don’t have payment evidence of it. I didn’t include my 1st work in Singapore as well because I don’t have a Certificate of Employment from that job.
Apr 30: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents for the last time.
May 01: VETASSESS – I successfully submitted my online assessment for Architectural Draftsperson. Total amount paid is AUD$ 880 (SGD$ 842.66) Crossing my fingers that the outcome will be positive.
May 05: VETASSESS – My application status was lodged.
Jul 12: VETASSESS – After 11 weeks, the results came out and it was Positive. Number of years assessed positively was 9.63 which is equivalent to 15 points in EOI.
Jul 25: IELTS – I finally booked my IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 365. My test date was Aug 16, 2020.
Aug 16: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
Aug 21: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 9.0 R: 7.5 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
Aug 22: EOI – I finally submitted my Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect for NSW Visa 190.
My points breakdown:
Age: 25
English Language Ability: 10
Education: 15
State Nomination: 5
Years of Experience: 15
Total: 70 points
*Invitation rounds for NSW nomination under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) are currently closed. I’m expecting that this may take a while because of the pandemic and the current situation in Australia. I just have to wait for the federal government’s advice on when it will open again.
2022
Jul 5: IELTS – Since my IELTS exam result was expiring on Aug 16, 2022, I booked my 2nd IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 378. My test date was on Jul 17, 2022. I didn’t know at that time that Australia is accepting its validity for 3 years. But I was able to use it as well for my Canada PR application.
Jul 17: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
Jul 20: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 8.0 R: 9.0 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.

State Nomination: 5
Years of Experience: 15

*Invitation rounds for NSW nominations under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) were still closed. It’s expected to open in November 2022. I hope I get invited before my birthday because I will lose points during an age milestone on December.
Sep 09: EOI – After a long wait, NSW’s Skilled Visa Nomination Program finally opened. However, my skill points for my nominated occupation didn’t meet the minimum points required which is 90. I only had 70 points. I updated my EOI and changed my preferred state to Victoria, which only requires a minimum of 65 points. I then created an account in the Live In Melbourne portal and submitted my Registration of Interest (ROI).
Dec XX: EOI – My points went down to 60 points due to an age milestone and I am now not qualified for at EOI in the Australian Skillselect. My only hope is to get higher points in my English exam to get back in the pool. I withdrew my EOI and ROI in Victoria.
Dec19: – I booked my PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 367.11). My exam date was on Dec 30, 2022.

are you outside SG na po ba ? do you have access sa SPF portal sa location mo, try to disable pop-up blocker sa computer mo in your browser. Sorry at this level lang alam ko . Pero once you are able to access the portal youc an even access without any FIN or Singpass . Apply na for the COC itself.
Or you can email them regarding the link to resend.
Refer to the application reference during your E-Appeal application.
Automated no-reply email ba yung natanggap nila?

Dami ng issue ng site nila ngayon. Have to refillup multiple times kasi HTTP Error 403 lagi upon submission. Already had an appeal approved yesterday but some mandatory fields are empty and you are not allowed to enter manually so cant proceed to apply COC.
Just applied now for another appeal. Noticed na some fields were changed kaya siguro empty fields yung dating approved appeal ko. May maintenance sila soon, baka to fix these issues. Bagsak talaga SPF sa standards nang most SG Govt sites.

Salamat sa advise.

We have not visited PH since we directly moved to AU from SG last November. We never went to the embassy to arrange anything with them, not even to inform them of us leaving SG for good. Personally, I dont think there is such a need. I believe, the PH IO would only be interested in your destination and/or current placement/country you live in and not the previous one.
Though, if I could go back and do things differently, maybe that is to ask the embassy to be sure. So, it's the same thing I would advise you to do.
Ang naiisip ko lang naman na pwedeng merong effect e sa OWWA membership, if you are still active. Ako kasi, matagal nang inactive haha.
DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

about 1 week.
if you are located in PH, best is to walk-in. Do it online, and pay online. Then pag nagpunta ka is for collection na if walang hit. If may hit, it may take another week.
If you have a previous record, you can try to renew. You can do it online and also pay online. You can try to have it delivered as well. For our case, i had my mom to help going to NBI main para mas expedited.

No problem po, marami rin po kayo naitulong samin. Ito hiningi po sa representative namin:
1. Yun pinadala po na document sa pinas (kasama na yun authorization form na provided ni embassy)
2. Valid Id ng representative reflecting yun exact name na nakalagay dun sa authorization form
3. Reference number from the NBI website after successfully magbook ng schedule and payment.

@Conboyboy - same here. kahit meron na kaming lumang NBI and pasok dun sa years of validity, no record ang lumalabas. Ang intindi ko kapag medyo matagal ng expired yun NBI kahit na pasok pa sa years of validity, hndi mo na rin mapapakinabangan. Kaya nagsubmit na lng kami as new application.
Based on experience, ok naman yun process kahit mag-new application tayo. Kasi super accommodating naman yun sir na nag-assist sa fingerprint. Naexplain pa nga niya history ng mga lugar sa pinas at kung kelan sila naging city. kailangan daw aligned yun place of birth sa form nila at sa birth cert mo.

Make sure everything is in order before leaving NBI. May mali sa zipcode ng nbi clearance ng wife ko and we only discovered it nung mag-upload na kami ng renewed NBI since pa expire na (validity only of 1 year).
Pumunta ulit mom ko, di na sila sumingil and it was released on the same day.
Yung akin nung nag renew ako, from SG address naging PH address naman hasel hehehehe.

If Singpost yung courier depende around 3 weeks to a month before makarating sa destination yung akin that was when I sent my fingerprints to UAE. Hindi ko lang alam with AU. Do you have representative sa SG para mas mabilis mo sana mapa express yung documents or even send you a scan copy will expedite the process while you wait for the paper document to be sent to you.

Tama naman. Pag may AU sim card ka na, palitan mo na lang mobile nuber mo sa DBS app. OTP will be delivered to that new number.
Btw, once you also changed your residential address with DBS to an AU one, di ka na makaka access ng online banking (web, browser) pero yung DBS mobile app mismo, accessible pa rin naman.

Your choice. Just make sure you change your communication preference to email and not the snail mail (physical mail delivered to SG address) to avoid missed correspondence, if any.
Di ka naman malolock out, may access ka pa rin through the DBS mobile app, yung web lang ang hindi accessible. The app will work as if you are in SG.
