ngayon, pagnagpamedical ka ng maaga + PCC, may possibility na madirect grant ka
pero kung di ka naman nagmamadali pumunta ng AU, ok lang antay mo CO, kasi
ang binibigay na IED is 1 year ng completion ng medical or PCC mo

Bear with me mga sir at maam kasi bago lang ako sa forums. I just want to ask if meron din ba dito na may alam ng status ng mga applicants for visa 489? I lodged my visa application last September 18, 2014. Napansin ko kasi ang bilis ng processing ng visa 189 at 190. Sana ganun din sa 489
