    Ano processs if you want to do medical check up in advance when filling visa application online?

    Im aplpying my parents for more than 3 months. More than 3 months requires medical check up.

    Last time na process kasi nag intay pa kami ng request from case officer and provide us instruction for medical check (paper base application sa VIA)

    @superluckyclover kailan ka nag submit at kailan lumbas yng grant?


    Im planning to buy plane ticket na rin dana sa parents ko kung may promo.

    @atchino Gawa ka ng immi account then punta ka sa my health declaration. select mo visa subclass 600. Mag generate yon ng Hap ID. Dalin mo sa St Lukes or the other one in Makati bring passport and passport size photo.

    I bought my plane ticket 3 months in advance kasi may tourney ako sasalihan sa syd. So june 29 submitted all the requirements. Bank cert, car registration, travel visa/travel stamps, Birth Cert, Passport Bio Page, Credit Card limit, title deeds, COE, ITR, Business permits. 6 weeks ko nakuha yung result.

    Yung father ko around January this year 2 weeks lang may result na sya. Nagbago ata ang processing times ng tourist visa.

    Hi, I applied nung 20th July. I emailed yesterday asking kasi mag 30 days na & they emailed back after a few hours saying,
    The assessment of this application is actively on going. Records show your application was lodged 20 July, 2015.

    The standard processing period is one(1) month from the time it was lodged. This period is indicative only and individual applications may be decided shorter or longer than our advertised service standard depending on the complexity of the case.

    @blessedvic Hi, yes 3 months lang tas boyfriend ko ung sponsor. Sinabi ko ren nga sa email ko na iniintay ko ung visa before booking kasi sayang tas sagot nila na mas advisable daw talaga na wag bumili until makuha result kasi kahit na flight mo eh mamaya na, unless over 30 days ka na daw nag apply eh wala silang magagawa.

    Good luck satin!

    @blessedvic Hi, yes sis ako! Oonga sana ma-approve talaga, kinakabahan lang ako kasi unemployed ako eh baka isipin gusto ko mag overstay dun. Oonga nakita ko nga na pag paper based eh mas mabilis pala talaga.

    Next time siguro ganun nalang, pag online kasi di lang sa matagal - wala ka pang narereceive na updates.

    Paper lodge talaga mas prefer ko kaya lang walang kasama si mother lumuwas ng Manila. So online na lang ginawa ko para wala nang hassle sa kanila.
    Ma approve ka nyan sis.unemployed din naman ako noon. 3rd time na apply ko nga Multiple pa binigay sa akin.

    Basta nag submit ka ng docs showing your close ties sa Pinas kaya babalik ka talaga.

    I am blessed.

    Kung.single ka pede mo idahilan old parents mo, or ikaw nag aalaga ng mga pamangkin then sasamahan mo ng birth certificate ng mga pamilya to.prove na totoo kine claim mo.tas pics na kasama mo sila.
    Pede rin ikaw nagmamanage ng paupahan etc . Or uuwi ka para sa pinas mag celebrate ng (any occasion na importante sau)..
    marami naman pede depende sa sitwasyon mo.
    Pede mo pa dagdagan docs mo sis if ever may naisip ka na pampalakas ng application mo.
