    Hi! Ask ko lang sana kung need ko ba talaga magpa MMR vaccine pa. Yun kasi yung sabi ng doktor sa SLEC BGC na i need that vaccine though yung status naman sa Immi account ko is NO ACTION REQUIRED na yung sa Health Assessment. Thanks! :)

    @ginger_ice17 Walang binabanggit na ganun sa Nationwide Makati. So I'm guessing di required. Pero if you're wife has never had chicken pox/measles and also if you're planning to get pregnant, it's a good precaution din. Never pa ako nagka chicken pox so nagpapaMMR din ako every 3 years. Hindi naman sya mahal and Posibleng delikado kasi yung chicken pox pag mas matanda and especially if nagkataon pregnant ka pa.

    @BeroMoves If you can, better upload it na for a chance ng DG. May mga instances kasi na almost a month pa ang aantayin pag inantay mo pa na hingiin to ng CO taz saka mo i-upload.
    Pero kung di ka naman nagmamadali... ok lang naman na antay mo CO. Yung iba kasing CO di naman nanghihingi..lalo na if di ka palipat-lipat ng country.

    went to get my nbi clearance kanina. tama nga faster if 4pm or later. malas lang may hit. weird nga, i just got one for my job a few months back, wala naman hit. antay nanaman one week :)

    Same case tayo @xiaolico requested my NBI clearance last Aug.31 then may hit, then naclear naman after few days.. then last Dec. 28, I decided to get a new one so I could have a longer IED.. but then may hit again. As from what others said in NBI, usually if purpose is for migration may Hit daw for them to further validate.. "daw"

    @baknir Sa Nationwide makati, kelangan mo lang dalhin yung passport mo, referral letter and filled out forms ng NHSA Departmental Form, DOH EB Form and HIV Consent Form na pwede mong download from here: http://makati.nhsiphilippines.com/.

    Meron din silang kopya dun nung forms kung wala kang dala pero mas mapapabilis ka kung mafill up mo na ahead of time tas bigay mo na lang sa kanila pagka dating mo. Mauuna ka dun sa iba na magfill up pa ng form.

    No need to bring passport sized photo or photocopies sa Nationwide. Not sure about St Lukes Global.

    @xiaolico "Visa Australia" yung purpose ko. Meron kasi Travel Australia and Visa Australia - I assumed Travel Australia is for holidays/tour/visit purposes. I noticed kasi sa option limited lang yung may "Visa [country]>" like Visa US, Visa Canada - I assumed for migration purposes yung may "Visa _____". :)

    @DrAgKurt yup, un gawa ko ngayon e job hunting mode sa SEEK while saving up for the big move :) pero kung may offer na kahit di na antayin ang last day of first entry, the earlier the better according to my friends na nandun na now. Weird nga e kasi expected ko January 3 lng ang IED due to my NBI Clearance dxpiring on January 3, 2018, although may hit nga kaya 11 ko pa nakuha. My medical was submitted by NHSI Baguio last January 9 (1 working day after the Medical) kaya cguro un ung naging basis.

    @xiaolico Visa Australia, tinanong ko din yung kumuha ng biometrics ko, sabe nya Visa Australia daw piliin ko for migration. But I think, this is just a minimal impact.. I think CO will accept even "Travel Australia" nakalagay sa purpose mo. Let's see from others, maybe some were able to grant even not "Visa Australia" nakalagay...
