    @sethkgx hehehe hindi silly question yan.. dilemma ko rin yan brad.

    Sa EOI ko saka ACS assessment walang middle name.. Pero sabi naman nila eh hindi naman big issue yung middle name. So ang ginawa ko, sa form 80, form 1221, form 1193, medicals, saka sa immi account, nilagay ko na yung middle name ko sa given name para consistent sa passport.

    Medyo napaisip din ako dyan dati.. yung CPAA ko at EOI walang middle name din pero nung nainvite na from immiaccount, forms and medical nilagay ko na din middle name...:)

    wala naman siguro magiging issue dyan sa middle name no? Ako rin kasi hindi consistent, un EOI ko walang middle name and un tourist visa ko sa AU may middle name. Kaya iniisip ko din ngayon ano ba tamang ilagay ko sa pag lodge ng visa

    @markusandlucas @ms.dee_celestiel tanong ko rin yan dati.. at nag research na rin ako sa kung saang saang forums. Hindi naman daw issue if may middle name or wala, ang importante is yung first name at last name are both consistent.

    In my case, naglagay na ako ng middle name sa lahat ng visa application form. Lahat kasi ng character reference ko (NBI, diploma, TOR, passport, birth certificate) may middle name, kaya sinama ko na.

    @rich88 same po tayo ng ginawa and I believe naman na okay lang yan talaga kase totoo naman mga sinasabi natin na names. mas kinumpleto lang natin later on para malinaw.. especially sa mga married women, para mas makita na agad ng magchecheck yung old surname. :)

    Hello all! =)

    Ask ko lang. Yun bang form 80 and form 1221, isubmit rin after mag lodge ng visa?

    Tapos me isa pa akong tanong. Yung previous permanent address. Wala naman kasi kaming "permanent address" hehe. Ndi ko na memorize yung lahat ng lumang address.

    Meron father ko pero rented rin kasi yun.

    Pwede kaya yung address na lang ng parents ng hubby mo? Since kanila naman yun since birth ng hubby ko.

    @mpatrice26 hi! Yes you can submit form 80 and 1221 pag lodge pa lng ng visa application.

    Lagay mo lng lahat ng naalala mong address kahit hindi complete address basta lagay mo yung period na tumira ka sa certain address. For example: june 2005 to august 2007 Malolos Bulacan Philippines pero still best if complete address but no issues if di mo malala lahat. Should be okay.

    God bless! :)

    May tanong po ako. ung sa mga dependent po ba kailangan pa rin po ba ng COC ng napuntahan nilang lugar or ung current na rresident lang? For example ung hubby ko nagwork siya sa abu dhabi for 1.5yrs. or ung main applicant lang ang magpo-provide ng COC ng lugar na napuntahan/nagwork. Thank you.

    Hello! Habang naghihintay ako sa result ng ACS assessment, gusto ko na magprepare for next step which is EOI.
    1)Aling docs yung kailangan iprepare or in-uupload? Ang meron ako are:
    Passport
    Diploma and TOR
    Resume
    COE with Job Description
    passport size photos

    2) Kailangan ba naka-CTC ang mga ito bago iscan for upload sa EOI? Or kahit original copy ang i-scan?

    Thanks in advance :)

    @arishiel Oo nga daw, mahirap raw kumuha ng mga police clearance daw sa gulf countries. hopefully may ibang forumers dito na makatulong.

    @amazing_kisses pag 189, ilagay mo lang "any." In my case VIC at NSW talaga ang prefer ko, so when i opted for 189/190 at ang pinili kong state is "NSW" kasi ni-reject na ako ng VIC eh.

    pag 190 naman, though hindi naman mandatory na mamili ka ng state, hindi ka nila papansinin unless ung state nila yung ini-specify mo.

    example.. sa NSW, kelangan sa EOI mo dapat naka specify as NSW ang preferred state.

    sa VIC naman, pag natanggap ka nila, papapalitan nila yung preferred state mo na "any" to "VIC."

    advise ko.. check mo muna sa seek.com.au kung saan maraming demand yung job mo. Based on that, dun ka mamili ng state if you wish to push through 190. If there are multiple states that piqued your interest, lodge multiple EOIs (1 for each state). Reason is, as much as possible avoid updating your EOI para hindi ka ma-pushback sa likod ng queue.

    Opinion ko lang naman..

    @rich88 - ang gusto ko sana is 189 (65 pts). Pero pwede ako mag-190 (65+5 points). Hinihintay ko na lang yung ACS assessment ko. Mas malaki ba ang chance pag 190 kaysa sa 189.

    @arishiel - ang napupusuan (makikigamit ng term hehehe) ko is yung SA kasi nandun yung friend ko sa Adelaide. Although pwede din etong mga ito kasi may demand sa mainframe technology which is line ng work ko:
    Melbourne (VIC)
    Sydney (NSW)
    Canberra (ACT)

    Anytime ba pwede mag-EOI?

    Hello batchmates,

    Hindi po mahirap kumuha ng police certificate sa UAE. I applied and paid mine online sa Dubai Police website, but though I needed to go to any police station to verify some of my details, after that naman they sent the certificate to my email address after 2 days.

    Ito po for Dubai residents:
    https://www.dubaipolice.gov.ae/dp/jsps/content/flat_content.do?contentCode=87255&switchLanguage=en&noCache=1413372793294

    Ito po for Abu Dhabi residents:
    https://www.adpolice.gov.ae/en/our.services.aspx.
    Sa "Our Services" makita mo sa baba yung mga e-service nila, there should be a "Good Conduct Certificate" don then you can follow the instructions for 'Outside UAE'

    Actually, I resided din sa Abu Dhabi for 1yr and 5mos., before ako nag work dito sa Dubai at naka more than 5 yrs na ko dito. I just got a PCC from Dubai muna since it is a valid PCC naman for the whole UAE ( I think) hehe. Pag hiningi na lang tsaka na lang ako kuha :) The reason is, yung husband ko nagapply ng PCC sa Dubai Website nagulat kami di sya eligible mag apply, kala namin may kaso sya or something, yun pala po kase yung visa nya kase is Sharjah, UAE naman, so he has to get his in that emirate. Kaya di na ko nag abala kumuha sa Abu Dhabi.

    HTH. :)
