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!

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
