    I have a question with this visa. Is it still under assessment level 3 or pwede ng 1? Especially if the school is eligible for streamlined visa processing?

    Kelangan ba magsend ng certificate of employment o hindi na?

    Thanks Cheers25.
    Problem ko ngayon yan, pano kung wala, 2 years ako nagwork dito (2009 to 2011) tapos 9months sa SG. For sure, hindi ako mabibigyan ng Cert. of Employment sa work ko sa SG kasi sandali lang naman ako nagtrabaho dun, 2 companies pa. Pwede kaya yun una ko work dito?

    And, yun evidence of funds. What if my dad's gonna sponsor me, does he need to make an affidavit of support pa? Or basta send ng money deposit slip and evidence of income niya?

    On a side note, grabe naman yun sa visa! 2 hours ko ata sinagutan! Nagkamali pako! Sayang sa papel! hahah Sana pwede nalang kasi online.

    Yup pwede yun basta lahat ng wok exp. mo, pero try mo pa din hingi ng certification sa SG, pandagdag din yun, hindi lang ako sure kung pwede ilagay sa form tas walang attachments, baka kasi hingan ka ng additional docs, kelgan ng affidavit, bank certificates and statements ng 3 months,

    Hehe ang dami din kasi tanong.. Anong visa type ka ba?

    Sa Sydney ako eh.
    Sana nga one month lang ang processing. Bilang pumetix tayo, manalig nalang talaga tayo kay God.

    May problema pako, hahah! ang dami pala! Ilang months ba bago magexpire ang passport mo siya pwede pa gamitin? Apparently, mageexpire na pala passport ko sa April 2013. Eh I dont have time na to renew it so, balak ko dun nalang sa AU. Madali lang naman yun process. Tapos sakit pa sa brains, may part pa pala dun na kelangan isulat kung na-grant ka na ng australian visa before and yun visa number. Eh nawawala na yun old passport ko, nandun yun tourist visa ko dati. 2 pa man din yun. hay naku!

    I read this from http://www.australia.com.ph/mnla/DIACfaqs1009.html
    FAQs
    8. My passport has less than 6-months validity, can I still use this or
    should I apply for a new passport before I make an application?

    Australian Migration Regulations does not prescribe a period within which the passport should be valid in order to travel to Australia. However, some airlines prescribe a “must be valid for at least 6 months” policy as many other countries require this. You should discuss this with your airline or travel agent.

    It may be to your advantage however, to have a passport with a longer validity to avoid any inconveniences in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

    :)
