In my case, 3x ako nagkamali ng pag fill up sa MyHealthDeclaration. Ang ginawa ko, dinelete ko lang yung ibang application sa immiaccount tapos generate lang ng bagong HAP ID.
Be consistent lang sa mga details na sinasagutan mo dyan kasi yung ibang identity details dyan sa health declaration e tatanungin ulit dun sa electronic form para sa visa application na. Be consistent to avert future issues.

In my case, sa EOI ko, SS application, ACS assessment, PTE assessment, walang middle name. Sa Form 80, 1221, health declaration, at sa immiaccount lang ako naglagay ng middle name. Hindi naman nagka problema.
Kahit nga sa visa grant letter, hindi rin nila nilagay yung middle name kahit na meron sa
application.
Pwera na lang kung Bato De la Rosa yung CO mo, rejected kagad pag nakita Leila M. De Lima hahahaha
@tweety11 yung iba "no" ang sinagot, no big deal naman.

May fee din pala yung nomination, pero 300AUD lang naman sa pagkakatanda ko kung hindi issue sainyo yung pera. Medyo mabilis yung 190 kung titignan mo yung tracker ko
