    Yung visa grant letter lang if you're visa was approved after June 1, 2012. Then, of course passport and plane tickets. :) 2 days lang talaga kayo? :) If may time kayo I suggest register na kayo at least kahit sa Medicare lang muna para eligible na kayo agad sa healthcare benefits ni Australia. They'll give u a temporary card, then yung permanent send nila sa Australian address and hopefully meron ka friend or relative na pwede dun mo muna padala.

    Nominated Occupation: Software Engineer (261313) - Husband is the primary applicant.

    10.21.2012 - Arrived in Melbourne. This is the day that the Lord has made. :)
    03.26.2012 - Visa granted. God is good, all the time! All the time, God is good! :)

    @pogingnoypi, nakalimutan ko mention na dapat yung passport mo is meron CFO sticker. :) Yun proof na registered migrant ka sa Commission on Filipino Overseas para kung anuman mangyari sa Australia, nagka-gera or what, maaccount ka nila. May seminar ka pupuntahan sa office nila sa Quirino, Osmena Hway.

    Good afternoon! Tanong lang po sana kung updated pa ang info sa thread na ito...

    For Initial Entry na short visit lang, then balik din sa Pinas or some other country after a few days...

    Ano po ba ippresent sa Immigration Officer ng Australia... yung Passport and Copy of Grant Letter lang ba?

    Also sa Medicare and Centrelink... Passport lang din po ba ippresent?

    Also, kailangan ko po ba ng Travel Insurance.. Naisip ko hindi na dapat kasi Resident naman ang status ko doon sa Oz and not Tourist...

    Salamat po sa immediate response!

    Hello.
    5 days lang din kami sa Australia para lang ma-activate ang visa. Passport lang po ang kinuha sa amin ng Immigration Officer.

    Sa Medicare and Centrelink, passport lang din.

    Tingin ko ay di mo na kailangan ng Travel Insurance, nung nag IED kami wala kami dala.

    IO's discretion boss...

    It could be the following:

    (1) Date of Police Clearance
    (2) Date of Medical
    (3) Feel lang ng CO na papuntahin ka na sa Australia ASAP

    Take note that for 2 & 3 above, IED usually follows that it will be around a year after the date indicated.
