Medyo at 9yrs old po, mahilig pa sya sa laruan. At etong maging nyang ama eh, sinabi ba naman na mahirap daw turuan at madaling ma distract...ayun, need ng pedia report.
Actually, sa kanya lang naman ganun yung bata... mas gusto nya kasi ako nag tuturo sa kanya...kasi nga, play and learn yung ginagawa namin. eh kung maki pa usap asawa ko, kala nya eh di medical officer at di pang migration yung assessment...hay naku...
Thank, tawagan ko na lang yung nationwide.

anyone here who had the same case?
today, nagpa-cardiologist na ako and i was asked to do some tests.
i'm just worried na if may findings, baka di ma-approve yung visa application.
can you guys share your thoughts if this maybe a cause for visa refusal?

Hello po, may concern lng po ako sa.medical. sa.referral letter po kasi, meron dun ung mga sasagutan kung may mga sakit like cancer, exposure to tb etc. Under blood diseases po, nag "no" po ako kasi akala ko existing or recent na mga sakit. Then nung interview ng physician, sinabi ko po na nag ka IDA ako nun. Pero nilagay ng physician is, IDA 2010. Not in medication, cbc last month, normal.
Ok lng po ba yun? Kasi akala ko po talaga existing medical conditions.baka po sabihin nila d ako nagsabi ng totoo. Kasi sa referral letter, sinabi dun na idala mga previous xray and existing medical.reports ganun po.
