Tanong ko lang about additional points sa partner skills qualifications. Bukod sa skills assessment kelangan pa bang mag-IELTS exam ng husband or wife para makakuha ng 5 points? Example, kasi pag ACS di naman required ang IELTS. So kung positive ang assessment ng ACS di na need ang IELTS?
Thanks.

quick question - has anyone in the forum experience getting a grant for having all "MET" in the document checklist and all medicals "finalised" though PCC from overseas is yet to be submitted?
Curious to know kasi this is my current status, wonder why the CO changed my PCC to "MET" when in fact receipt pa lang yung nasubmit ko...

a) what deadine are you worried about? Un bang 28 days deadline na sinabi ng CO?... dont worry too much... as long as you can prove na nagawa nyo na lhat ng requirements..
b) kung wala kang agent, why dont you email your CO and tell them that you have provided the last document required (un PCC)..
c) paper application ka ba? if not, why are you worried kung nareceive ba nila ang PCC or not?. you can see if ur PCC was uploaded correctly or not..

kidding aside, enough na po siguro na inform nyo ang CO nyo na ginawa nyo na ang lahat ng kelangan nyong gawin. sabihin nyo lang ano yung nagpapatagal sa nationwide at di nila maupload ang results nyo. i don't think the CO will pressure them though. pero malalaman natin dito kung totoo nga ang sinasabi ng nationwide na may problema sa ehealth. kasi pag wala naman problema sa ehealth, i'm sure magrereact ang CO nyo. hehe
