Hi Guys! Nakuha na namin ang pinakang-pinaka hihintay na Visa Grant last Wednesday. Late ng gabi nuon nung mabuksan ko ang email notification ng Grant. Tuwang-tuwa na sana kami kaso ang naka sulat sa sa IED condition ay "Must Enter Australia BEFORE 13 Mar 2016"!!! Sa Sunday na yun! Kaya napalitan kaagad ng kaba ang tuwa namin. Parang YEEEEHEEEAAAAAAaaaaawwwwww ang naging reaction namin.hahaha
Na check ko na sa Mar 13, 2016 din kasi mag eexpire ang NBI Clearance ko kaya siguro ganun. May kasamang email attachment(Notice of IED deadline breach) aside sa grant ang binigay ng Case Officer. Hindi namin maintindihan ng maayos ang laman ng sulat kasi hindi direct ang kanilang gusto ipahiwatig, kasi may nkasulat dun na puedeng i-cancel ang visa pag hindi nka pasok sa IED Deadline at ipapakita din sa Immig Officer kung nka pasok sa OZ lagpas ng IED Deadline.. Kaya kahapon ng umaga (10am Aus time), tinawagan ko ang DIBP para magtanong.
Mabuti nalang at puede pa daw mag IED kahit lagpas na sa deadline as long as General Skilled Migrant ka at ipapakita mo yung additional notice sa Immigration Officer sa Airport ng Australia. Kaya Ayun! Busy2x ng sobra kahapon! Kanina nag pa PDOS na rin para go. Kaya, mag IED at Big Move na rin kami ni Mrs sa 21 Mar 2016 sa Melbourne!:D
Thank God at Maraming salamat sa mga nagbigay info dito sa forum, ang laki ng naitulong ang mga sagot niyo! Good luck sa ating lahat sa ating OZ Dream! Sorry sa napaka habang post. Matsalams!

@ram071312 Thank you po. Kayo na dun malapit na ang 90days. Maganda nga sigurong idea yung mag follow up ng maayos sa CO. Feeling ko nailagay sa Priority ang application ko bigla after ko mag follow up. Pereho na kaming walang work ni Mrs while waiting nung nag hintay na ng Visa grant at nka pagpabook na rin kami ng ticket in advance, kasi mura pa last month..ganun kami ka confident or ka loka lang talaga mag decision ngayon..sobrang risky.hahaha Dapat na rin kami aalis dito para mka hanap na ng work at hindi na masayang ang savings namin dito sa Pinas, lalo na kung may work na dun. Pero mas maganda yung ginagawa niyo na ma sure muna yung grant bago mag resign, bili ng tickets at maghanap ng bahay dun. Kami ngayon, swerte at andun pa sa Melbourne nag bakasyon ang sis-in-law ko na naghahanap ng bahay para sa aming pag stay dun. Mas less stressful din kung nka ayos muna ang itinerary niyo in anticipation ng Visa grant. Like, mag plan na kayo ng kailang mag follow-up sa Visa application, Kailang mag resign sa jobs, kailan mag start maghanap ng bahay, kailang mag check ng Bookings, etc.. Malaking tulong yun na mka handa kayo ng itinerary na after ng 90days. I hope na makuha na natin lahat soon ang mga hangad natin at mag fall in place lahat ng plans natin for OZ. Panibagong waiting game naman sa job hunting ang papasukan namin dun. Kaya good luck sa ating lahat.:D

@downunder15 Based sa mga napag tanongan ko nung nalaman ko ang concern, usually bini-base ni CO ang IED deadline based sa earliest mag expire sa following: PCC, Medicals, Passport, etc... Pero sa Phil Immigration, pag less than 6mos from Departure date or IED ang passport mo, bka hindi ka daw nila palalabasin ng Pilipinas. Sana malayo pa sa iyo ng 6mos from estimated Grant Notice date and IED.

@downunder15 Yup, nag patulong ako sa Agency..para din less mistakes and less stress sa pag research tungkol sa pag apply ng Visa. Sa Canberra ba ang pinili mo na IED place? Tamang-tama, andun ang Phil Embassy, dun ka na magpa renew pagdating mo agad dun. Pero dapat i-research mo rin ang mga kailangan mo i-secure na documents na nangangailangan ng passport. Bka kasi mas mainam na irenew niyo ang passports pag okey ka na sa mga requirements mo sa pag start dun. Yun lang ang na pick-up ko na info sa Seminar na sinalihan ko recently. Importante din talaga ang passport sa pag start mo dun.

@ann_joli Ma'am, sa case ko po, hindi na na-move ang IED Deadline namin..nka fix talaga daw yun based sa condition na nkalagay sa grant letter. Pero binigyan naman kami ng supplemental letter ni CO na basically nagsasabing okey lang sa mga General Skilled Migrant mag IED after sa deadline basta ang IED ay within sa date ng validity ng Visa Grant na ibinigay..at kailangan din ipakita yung letter na yun kasama ang Visa grant para ma clear sa immigration as Australia. So sa pagkaka alam ko, at based sa napagtatanongan namin nung nangyari ang sa case namin, hindi talaga nag eextend ng IED deadline pero nag bibigay sila ng supplemental letter tulad ng sa case ko.

Na check ko na sa Mar 13, 2016 din kasi mag eexpire ang NBI Clearance ko kaya siguro ganun. May kasamang email attachment(Notice of IED deadline breach) aside sa grant ang binigay ng Case Officer. Hindi namin maintindihan ng maayos ang laman ng sulat kasi hindi direct ang kanilang gusto ipahiwatig, kasi may nkasulat dun na puedeng i-cancel ang visa pag hindi nka pasok sa IED Deadline at ipapakita din sa Immig Officer kung nka pasok sa OZ lagpas ng IED Deadline.. Kaya kahapon ng umaga (10am Aus time), tinawagan ko ang DIBP para magtanong.
Mabuti nalang at puede pa daw mag IED kahit lagpas na sa deadline as long as General Skilled Migrant ka at ipapakita mo yung additional notice sa Immigration Officer sa Airport ng Australia. Kaya Ayun! Busy2x ng sobra kahapon! Kanina nag pa PDOS na rin para go.
Kaya, mag IED at Big Move na rin kami ni Mrs sa 21 Mar 2016 sa Melbourne!:D
Thank God at Maraming salamat sa mga nagbigay info dito sa forum, ang laki ng naitulong ang mga sagot niyo! Good luck sa ating lahat sa ating OZ Dream! Sorry sa napaka habang post.
Matsalams!

Pereho na kaming walang work ni Mrs while waiting nung nag hintay na ng Visa grant at nka pagpabook na rin kami ng ticket in advance, kasi mura pa last month..ganun kami ka confident or ka loka lang talaga mag decision ngayon..sobrang risky.hahaha Dapat na rin kami aalis dito para mka hanap na ng work at hindi na masayang ang savings namin dito sa Pinas, lalo na kung may work na dun.
Pero mas maganda yung ginagawa niyo na ma sure muna yung grant bago mag resign, bili ng tickets at maghanap ng bahay dun. Kami ngayon, swerte at andun pa sa Melbourne nag bakasyon ang sis-in-law ko na naghahanap ng bahay para sa aming pag stay dun. Mas less stressful din kung nka ayos muna ang itinerary niyo in anticipation ng Visa grant. Like, mag plan na kayo ng kailang mag follow-up sa Visa application, Kailang mag resign sa jobs, kailan mag start maghanap ng bahay, kailang mag check ng Bookings, etc.. Malaking tulong yun na mka handa kayo ng itinerary na after ng 90days. I hope na makuha na natin lahat soon ang mga hangad natin at mag fall in place lahat ng plans natin for OZ. Panibagong waiting game naman sa job hunting ang papasukan namin dun.
Kaya good luck sa ating lahat.:D
