Tanong ko lang po... may kilala ba kayong ibang nag pa assess or nakapasok sa OZ as "Other Spatial Scientist"? Kapal ng mukha ko na mag-apply doon pero yung previous work ko ay "Research Associate", then current work ko is "Scientist", tapos graduate ako ng BS Geography degree. Sana maging pabor yung assessment!

kakasali ko lang po sa forum, mag-ask lang din po sana...
kakakuha lang namin ng ITA kahapon. :):)
Kelangan po ba magmedical na at macomplete na ang mga NBI, SG PCC at FBI bago mag proceed to apply or intayin pa yung pag may case officer na naka-assign?
May mga need po ba ng FBI clearance for July batch? Tagal kasi ng processing nila e.

yes you need police clearances sa bansa na nag stay atleast 12 months.. pwede kana kuha ng nbi.. sa sg coc pag may ITA pwede na din.. sa FBI no idea ako..
and setback nito ay possible earlier initial entry..kasi sa medicals/ nbi/sg coc nakabased ang initial entry date. pero kung gusto mong punta agad oz, hndi yan issue.
