    Hi,

    Team December member here too. Have you guys done your medical exams? We are from Negros Occidental and I've looked at the panel doctors list for the Philippines it only has Cebu, Manila, Baguio and Davao. We have a 1-year old child included in the application as a dependent. Are there any other options aside from flying to Cebu/Manila to have the medical exam? Thanks!

    @johanncedrick www.immi.gov.au/Work/Pages/SkillSelect/SkillSelect.aspx ito yong link. The higher your points the higher your chances of being invited. If 60 points ka lang, like me, parang first come first serve sya. Except if yong mga accoutants and acs mas matagal mainvite kasi pinoprorate.

    @paranoid_librarian I asked this same question from another thread. You can take your medical exam after you lodge your application, you don't have to wait until you are assigned a CO.

    Good Day everyone, meron ba dito nagpassess sa vetassess... sabay kasi kami ng husband ko na nagpassess,and he already got his result last december 5, while ako may kulang na document.. after a day naisubmit ko din yun agad... the thing is, the moment na nagbago yung status nya from In progress to completed, binigay na agad yung outcome, even yung letter. while yung sakin after ko ko maisubmit yung follow up na document in progress pa din sya, and after 2 days naging completed na din.. pero walang result na binigay. though nakalagay completed na.. kahit sa email.. ano kaya pwede kong gawin.. paassist naman po, lalo na sa mga nakaexpeerience nito.. salamat

    Hi,

    Ask ko lang if me nakaexperience na nito.

    I was reviewing my application after payment when i found this question "Has this applicant previously travelled to Australia or previously applied for a visa?" and answer is blank. I recall na di ito lumabas upon visa lodgement kasi otherwise i would able to have answer it with a YES or NO and almost 2 weeks akong nagttry magpay ng visa thru my debit card (which keeps getting error, until i applied for UB EON debit card) and everyday trying to pay, narereview ko ung application ko so I was surprised to have that question pop up in my application upon payment. I was sent to NSW kasi last March for a business trip by my company to attend a workshop for our work here in Manila kaya i'm having dilemma right now if i need to file form 1023 on that.

    Questions:

    1. Do i need to file form 1023 to correct that and,
    2. Do i need to file it before a CO will be assigned or wait for a CO to be assigned before filing it?

    Thanks in advance po
