For Initial Entry na short visit lang, then balik din sa Pinas or some other country after a few days...
Ano po ba ippresent sa Immigration Officer ng Australia... yung Passport and Copy of Grant Letter lang ba?
Also sa Medicare and Centrelink... Passport lang din po ba ippresent?
Also, kailangan ko po ba ng Travel Insurance.. Naisip ko hindi na dapat kasi Resident naman ang status ko doon sa Oz and not Tourist...
Salamat po sa immediate response!

5 days lang din kami sa Australia para lang ma-activate ang visa. Passport lang po ang kinuha sa amin ng Immigration Officer.
Sa Medicare and Centrelink, passport lang din.
Tingin ko ay di mo na kailangan ng Travel Insurance, nung nag IED kami wala kami dala.

It could be the following:
(1) Date of Police Clearance
(2) Date of Medical
(3) Feel lang ng CO na papuntahin ka na sa Australia ASAP
Take note that for 2 & 3 above, IED usually follows that it will be around a year after the date indicated.
