  @myphexpat Hi po! tanong ko lang po. ibig sabihin ba na this coming mid january merong schedule sila for allocation? and after lang ng allocation na ito ay saka pa lang mag start uli yung pag count mo sa average 60 days na waiting time ulit? Concerned lang ako kasi 3 kami sa application. Ako, wife and daughter. pero ni check ko ngayon ay recommended pa rin yung health nung anak ko. Ibig sabihin kaya ay pati yung sa amin ay hindi pa rin allocated?
  
  Tiningnan ko ulit ngayon kaya pala recommended pa rin sa anak ko kasi wala akong ni upload na health evidence niya. Pero nakalagay naman sa ibaba na "Health is finalised...." for the 3 of us. Hayz.. Sana hindi naman 3 months po uli. sobrang tagal nun. Kapit lang tayo

  tinanong ko kasi kelan maallocate, sabi nya mag antay lang mid January for the next round of allocations. then by that time you can start counting 3 months.
  
  Pero posibleng special case tong sa kin, posible na nakalimutan lang to. kasi generic naman sagot nung kausap ko. posible mauna kapa sa kin.

  @myphexpat ah ganun po ba. pero maitanong ko lang health is finalised ba yung nakalagay yung sa inyo?
  

  yup health is finalized. di nako nagupload ng document for health. alam ko na din kasi na di na kailangan yun, tinanong ko lang yun para mapansin ako ng taga dibp at tanungin ako sa reference number ko.

  @myphexpat ah i see. baka nga special case lang yung sayo.. pero hopefully di naman mag 3 months ano po. na sobrang excited lang din ako kaya kahit yung receipt ni upload ko.

  may isang Tax Assessment Year lang syang pinaupload which di ko na maupload sa IMMI account kaya inattach ko na sa email? Personal email ba ikaw nagreply or dun sa Team Email nila. Sabi kasi sa email response below pero wala naman sya personal email na inilagay therefore sa Team Email ko pinadala (same email na ginamit nya to send the info to me which is the adelaide.gsm.team7 saka sa gsm.allocated na mailbox)

  @artagnan @j0hn @theumlasfamily tingin ko sa application natin, meron naman siguro tayong lahat CO na. nung first time ako tumawag, there is no such thing as case officer daw, it will be assigned by a certain team. ewan ko lang kung tama ang theory ko, iba yung nagmamanage ng pagcheck at pagfollowup ng mga documents at ibang tao din yung mga nag a-approve ng grant. yung trend lang kasi, yung mga merong CO, di pa nagagrant agad agad. So malamang, napepending pa yung grant kasi yung CO na maga-approve nagliliwaliw pa sa ibang sulok ng mundo.
  
  Kung tama ang theory ko, baka yung mga di kinontact for approval na ng Grant yun.
  
  Sana wag matipalok yung CO na mag a-approve baka mag sick leave naman. haha.
  
  Chill nalang tayo guys, exhausted na rin ako kaka followup at kaka-antay. basta kung marami tayo, mas mabuti, at least hindi isolated case yung sa tin.
  
  Sino pa mga october/september jan na di pa nacontact?

  Tin-try pa lang nya ngayon kontakin ang DIBP, hindi daw sya makapasok doon sa contact# eh.
  
  Actually now lang sya nag-follow-up nung i-advise ko na meron nang mga cases na nadedelay ang results.
  
  Ang initial assumption kasi nya is matagal lang talaga or may issues sa medical nya kaya ayaw mag-followup..

  Hi @d_cloud nanggaling kasi ako ng thailand nung mag initial entry ako sa Oz, kaya di required ang PDOS/CFO sticker...Nung sa Australian Immigration naman na ko, passport lang hiningi sakin then walang kahit anong tanong tinatakan lang ng arrival yung passport ko..
  
  Kung sa Pinas kayo manggaling, hahanapan kayo ng Phil Immigration ng PDOS CFO Sticker kaya i-ready na lang din...
