@xiaolico Just want to share...Yung Hubby ko, nagparepeat Xray din sa kanya kasi parang merong suspicious ekek na di raw mabasa. Inexray sya uli, kasama na front side. So far OK naman result. Baka meron lang silang need maconfirm dahil malabo yung shot ng previous xray. Sa BGC kami nagpamedical. Dont worry...all is well
Good luck on your applications!

@auitdreamer Pwedeng malaman kung anong document type mo una inattach yung CEMI, Diploma, and TOR ng hubby mo?

Sana naman wag na i-pag English assessment, magastos and ayaw din ng wife ko kasi ayaw nya daw ma-pressure haha.

@freakazaa Haha! Parehong-pareho tayo. Ayaw din ni hubby magEnglish test. Hay naku.

Nilagay ko yung docs under "Language Ability - English, Evidence of - Other". Nung nagreply ako, sinabi ko na lang na dun ko nilagay.

Ikaw san mo nilagay? Wala naman kasi akong nakitang ibang section na pwedeng paglagyan.

@auitdreamer Dyan ko lang din nilagay tapos hiwahiwalay ng entry yung CEMI, TOR, Diploma. Tinignan ko yung ibang document types wala naman ibang applicable kasi other than "Other", puro mga English assessment types na.
