Major update has been completed. Please help to report any abnormality that you are facing (in case there is any) to [email protected] . Thank you for your continued support guys!
All supporting documents must be scanned and uploaded with your application. All documents that you provide must be certified copies of original documents.
Also, may certain sections doon sa checklist that says, you must provide "colour scanned" copies..
Documents to show identity
Scanned colour copies of the biographical pages of the current passports or travel documents of all people included in the application.
Scanned colour copy of your birth registration, and that of all people included in the application
Sa case ko, all of my docs are coloured photocopies, then pina-CTC ko sa Notary Public, then colored-scan..
So I think the general rule is, colour-photocopy all docs, have it CTC'd, then colour-scan everything...

Based sa visa 189 checklist:
immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/checklists/189.aspx Also, may certain sections doon sa checklist that says, you must provide "colour scanned" copies.. Sa case ko, all of my docs are coloured photocopies, then pina-CTC ko sa Notary Public, then colored-scan..
So I think the general rule is, colour-photocopy all docs, have it CTC'd, then colour-scan everything...
