    Hi guys... sino na nagtry ng Respall dyan? Is it really worth it? Mas sure ba na makakuha ng visa (TRV or PR) kapag naghire ng agent? :)

    Worth it naman ang Respall. Yes, medyo mataas PF nila pero worth it. Tutulungan ka talaga ng agent mo sa lahat. Before ipasa mga docs nirereview nila ng maigi. Yung 3 CDR's ko for Engineers Australia nakailang revised ako bago na finalize kasi nakukulangan pa si Respall pero positive outcome namin kasi 9 days lang (including weekends) after namin ipasa yung EA Lodge lumabas agad result at positive naman. Malaking tulong ang Agent kung di mo alam ang mga gagawin mo. :)

    Hi.. may same case din po ba kayo sa Respall na negative ang assessment sa ACS due to insufficient documents then ngayon kailangan ulit magbayad ng AUD395 for reassessment? I have been assessed before by ACS and it was positive feedback. However, nagexpire na and kumuha na ako ng agent for visa processing. I just want to know kung may same case na din ba ng ganito sa Respall? Thak you.

    Why would it be insufficient documents? Wouldn’t your agent know if they’re about to submit insufficient docs? I reckon it should have been picked up, but then I don’t know the whole story. For example, before we submit an application for any assessing authority, I have to go through all paperwork one last time and if I’m not fully confident, I tell the client and will leave it to the client to decide if he/she wants to risk it (only when I’m 95-99% unsatisfied) but of course if it’s obvious the application won’t meet the requirements, definitely won’t submit until the client complies.

    @RheaMARN1171933 I just talked to my agent and they are now having an issue with ACS, because most of the applications that they lodge recently only few got a positive feedback and the rest have this insufficient documents/details. I really hope maayos na nila kaagad to without paying extra fee. 😥

    Perhaps they weren’t aware of the new requirements when they submitted the application? Just guessing. Hopefully yours would be sorted out. All the best

    Respall yung nagpasa na nabigyan ng negative assessment? tama ba? medyo surprising to. normally, mabusisis sila diyan.

    Hi, im also from Sg making our BM by end of march. From what i hear, very expensive ang agents dito sa sg. Yun isa friend ko nag inquire sa aims about 2 years ago and prof fee nila around 10k sgd and need na mag downpayment ng 90%. Agent fee lang yan and does not include yun ibang gastos like visa fee, medical, etc.
    In our case, nag opt kami na kumuha n lng ng agent sa pinas, yun nirecommend ng friend namin na nasa Au na. Since all transactions and communications naman are done online and no real need for a face to face. So it doesnt matter kung sg based or Ph based Or au based yun agent.

    for reference

    Based on experience so far with Respall. Maalaga sila sa amin, sila pa nga nag fo-follow up sa mga requirements namin. They've been meticulous in ensuring the documents that we'll be submitting to ACS are complete. Nakadepende na sa case mo kung gano kabilis mo matatapos yung mga requirements for ACS, friend ko Respall din, 1 month lang oks na yung docs niya and he got a positive outcome. Waiting nalang siya for PTE schedule. Good Luck!

    @Satvai i first inquired with respall too, i find it too pricey. I did it my own, then in the middle of processing, i learned here who offers more affordable fees, get their services, now enjoying land down under. Good luck to all waiting. Dadating din yan.

    is there any chance you could enlighten us who was this the agent you contact? with more affordable fees?

    Affordable compared to other agents ang Reach Out Migration. But on my personal experience, Ms Gigi’s advice and ung diskarte nya to handle a case is masyadong naka based sa success rate nya. I’m not saying it’s totally wrong but I guess, an agent who chooses to discuss the positive chances and also the risk involved on every options available for the applicant is better. Let the applicant know all the possible visa options, and let the applicant decide.

    Hi po. I have also tried reaching out to Ms. Gigi - sent her 3 emails na and I have also filled in yun assessment form nila sa website but wala pa rin response. 2 weeks na ako waiting. Just wondering if ganito ba talaga sila katagal mag reply? I was thinking baka closed na yun ReachOut Migration due to the pandemic???

    Ill try to reach her and check what's going on :)

    Thanks @Admin. Sana nga po malaman na natin what's happening para if needed, we can proceed to find other migration agent nalang kesa naghihintay po kami sa wala.

    I had the opportunity to meet Ms Gigi when we were in Canberra. She mentioned that the focus of Home Affairs migration is for those in-shore applicants and not off-shore due to COVID concerns. Which in my opinion makes sense considering that international travel is still not allowed. For now, I suggest that you inquire with other migration agents and compare the best price for value service they can give.
