@hopeful_mea basta mag submit ka muna ng 190, then i assess nila. I think ang offer nila ng 489 is to ensure people who applied in NT will remain in Nt for the time being.

May ask lang po ako about NBI, kumuha po kasi ng wife ko ng NBI nung first week ng Feb then kinasal kami nung Feb 23. Sa NBI na nakuha namin single pa nakalagay.
Then, yung NSO marriage certification namin di pa rin namin nakukuha bale ang papakita din namin ay yung may tatak ng local registrar lang.
Issue po ba ito parehas?
Maglolodge na kami sana ngayon, bigla namin narealize these items.
Thank you.
