    @chewychewbacca at least 79 dapat sa lahat ng bands sa PTE ang need ko...first time ko mag PTE, IELTS ako nagtake dati, pasado naman pero hndi umabot for 20 pts. Yung sa medical naman kasi kaya gusto kona din matapos, yung frend ko kasi nakitaan pa ng scar sa lungs sa xray kahit na hnd nmn daw sya nagka TB or naexpose sa my TB. Dahil dun nadelay sya ng 2months pa for sputum test. kaya naisip ko pamedical na para pag nangyari din sakin yun, umuusad na yung 2 months na waiting for the other tests needed :)

    @DFVille Uy, same tayo May 19 nag lodge! Ano occupation mo? Gawa ka signature. Nahihirapan ako tandaan mga tao kasi wala signatures. :)) Most probably August 3 next round kasi parang 1st and 3rd week of the month and invite rounds this 2016-2017. 2 weeks agwat. Patience lang pagod na rin ako mag antay. 2 months na. Kaloka.

    tama gawa tayo ng signature. wait pano ba gumawa ng signature? hahaha

    @thisisme1 Lahat nung pinasa ko sa ACS yun na rin ipapasa ko sa visa lodging. Kulang na lang ITR and payslips pero madali na lang yun kasi print na lang yon kasi sinesend lang naman ng HR yon via email. Tapos NBI clearance meron na ako. Medical na lang talaga. :)

    @thisisme1 Yes, mas okay talaga siya. Lalo na for IT professionals kasi computer based exam. Kaso 11k na naman. :| Puwede gawin mo antay ka hanggang August kapag wala pa invite mag PTE ka na. Kasi nasa 65 pointers na naman yung last cut off nung July 6 eh. So malamang invited na tayo sa August. Bwisit yung technical difficulties kasi.

    @thisisme1 @chewychewbacca Makaka-upload lang ng docs after submitting your visa application. At this point, i-ready nyo lang muna lahat ng recommended docs while waiting for the ITA :)

    As for medicals, yes pwede na kayo magpa-medical even without ITA. Ganun din ginawa namin though na-invite kasi kami agad after ng medical exam namin. Magiging concern lang sa early medicals is the initial entry date. Pag late ka na-invite and natagalan din yung visa grant, mapapaaga yung punta mo sa AU. Dependent kasi yung IED sa validity ng health exam and character check (i.e. NBI clearance). But if you plan to leave asap after the visa grant, then I guess it shouldn't be an issue.

    @teamV Bawal pa daw upload docs kapag wala pa ITA. Pero puwede na prepare lahat ng kailangan. I suggest prepare all the documents na lang. :)

    @chewychewbacca The validity of health and character clearance is normally 12 months. So yung IED is 1 year after magpa-medical or na-release yung NBI clearance (for PH based applicants) whichever is earlier. Ilalagay naman nila yun sa visa grant letter. May cases ata na nagiging 6 months pag may findings sa medical exam.
