We finally decided to chase our AU dream (10 Nov 2015).
I would like to ask what are the pros and cons of having SG- and AU-based na ICs. Based sana sa mga experience nyo and kung pwede pakisama narin kung magkano ang total spendings nyo (kung ok lang po)

My experience kasi, nag enquire kami sa SG-based na IC and nirecommend kami sa Visa 190 with nominated state na VIC. Ang worry ko is ang mahal ng charge nila (professional fee).
Then nag enquire din kami sa AU-based na IC, they recommend na TAS ang nominated state. With regards to professional fee, hindi ko pa natatanong kasi awaiting for further details pa kami.
Thanks in advance!
