Mga 2wks ata aabutin before matapos ang processing ng SG PCC - now usually they will just mail it directly to the DIAC office requesting such document however minsan pumapayag sila na you will just pick it up...
Come up with your own excuse as to why you want it to be picked up - and if ever papayag, you can be able to save at least a wk here in processing time as you just need to go back sa Cantonment, pick-up the SG PCC and scan it in full color for sending to your CO.
Cheers!!

Salamat po sa answer nyo.. cause I made a great mistake the last month.... I got positive skills assessement as University Tutor from Vetassess but when lodging EIO .. I have found out na we are not in same SOL list ng husband ko... SOL1 sya.. then ang skills ko.. SOL2.... So, I hurry up took another skills assessment in ACS sa ICT business analyst cause yun ang current job ko... I was working as lecturer in the university for 8 years and 3.5 years in the IT field... Thanks God naman po at positve ang assessment ko though naging thank you ang payment ko sa vetassess...
