    hi everyone! @filsgoz, curious lang ako sa nakita ko sa timeline.. initally po ang nilagay mo sa EOI eh 190, then they advised you to apply for 489 instead? nagsabi ba sila ng reason kung bakit or kung ano kulang? next question ko kasi ay ito: "The EOI for this subclass is able to be completed. The client's claims equal 55 points" This is me applying for 190 sana. What do they mean by áble to be completed' eh 55 points nga lang. Naguluhan nmn ako dun. Maybe you can enlighten? TIA!

    you cannot cancel that 2 years residency requirement in a specified region kasi yan talaga ang visa 489. pwede ka lang siguro humingi ng release sa sponsoring state mo and like yung mga ngtry na visa 190 pwede siguro, given you have valid reasons for asking for release. but then again, dahil visa 489 tayo, we are restricted with the post codes as stated in our condition. so sa regional area ka lang din pwede lumipat if in case pumayag ang sponsoring state mo.

    remember, we wirked hard for this visa para lang bawiin nila and if we dint follow the rules, dahil providional visa natin, pwede nila bawiin yun and may cause deportation. so do your research first, ask the immigration office.

    Hi @koykoy. HNY too. Quick response sa question mo, your CO will make the determination if you'll need NBI and SgPCC or just SgPCC. I applied NBI from Sg. Went to the embassy, filled-up the application form, and did the thumb prints. I think I sent that application form to the Phils and asked my brother to process it for me. Tapos my bro sent me the NBI clearance to Sg. San ka na sa process so far? and which state are you after?

    Hi @filsgoz! Thanks for the reply. Maglo-lodge pa lng po ng 489 visa kc waiting pa for credit card cut off. Gusto ko sana ma-prepare na un mga docs na kailangan kya nag-iinquire na for NBI/PCC. Hopefully ma-grant din : ) Aside from NBI/PCC, medicals, proof of funds, ano pa po bang docs ang kailangan? Need pa uli ng COE, payslips? Dpat po ba notarized din ang mga docs na isusubmit? Sa Adelaide po kmi.
