question po ulit. Mabilis lang ba magopen ng bank account sa Au? Iniisip ko kasi kung mag-open na account while in SG or mas okay kung pagdating na lang ng AU? Thanks.
se29mPerth Posts: 2,144Member, Moderator Joined: Sep 14, 2015
@joseph85 sa mga nabasa ko, mabilis lang daw. Pero most of us nagopen na ng bank account before going to oz kasi if you have more than 10k of cash on hand, ideposit na lang yun mostly sa iz bank account to avoid the hassle of declaring it sa oz immigration. Kelan big move sir?

@joseph85 meron daw babayaran parang processing fee lang yata.. not really sure how much, some say 200 pesos. And ang pinakamasaya ay wala nang OEC. Hehe
joseph85Mandaluyong Posts: 67Member Joined: Feb 21, 2014
@joseph85 iba iba nga sinasabi.. kasi sabi ng Qantas kanina naginquire ako kung sakaling manggaling ako sa Pinas.. eto ang sagot..
Airfare: USD426 @ 46.83 = Php19950 Taxes: Php3511 (inclusive of Phil. Travel Tax and Airport Terminal Fee) Total: Php23461
so meaning meron babayaran.. at baka (baka lang) magbayad ka ulet ng processing fee nga sa airport na 200 or 400.. grabe ang daming bayarin sa airport naten.. langya.. haha

@prcand more than 1 month akong naghintay for the DL card sa LTO nung nagrenew ako last year, resibo lang din binigay sakin nung una. Napabilis pa nga ng konti kasi may kakilala. Ilang beses din ako nagfollow up for the card.

Kamusta po sa mga moving sa Australia?

Pahingi ndin po ng mga links ng mga needed.
Currently working po ako sa SG as IT.

Thanks po sa lahat.
