    Pansin ko naman sa mga tracker dito mabilis ang grant ng mga pinoy ah. Sana ako din haha.
    Sa ibang forum like expatforum ang daming delays from different countries.

    Front load is uploading all documents right after visa application and before CO contact or requests for further documents. Makakapag-Upload ka lang if may invite ka na and naglodge ka na with paid visa fees.

    @shemsimi all the best on your big move, ang bilis ah! Alright, big move na. Be heading to the lonely state (daw) at Perth. Kadalasan kasi sa Sydney or Melbourne ang first landing. How about you? Where do u plan to go? Maraming uncertainties in mind, but it shall be a good life at the end. Most likely, may party sa ADT plant now...rinig ko from here ang cloud 9 moment mo. God bless shem :((

    @shemsimi GSM Brisbane ka or Adelaide? Agree, does not end on grant but begin new journey on job hunt which is the difficult part of the migration process. Sana naman nasa ere na rin ang grant notice namin. Kakainip na rin. Paalis pa naman kami ng family to HK next week for a week vacation.

    @jedh_g I really like the weather in Perth lalo na pag winter. Not too cold compared to other areas. Bagay sakin na takot sa lamig. Haha. Ano reason/s mo why you chose perth pala? Share naman para mas masaya

    @Asha Perth for me why?
    1.) Laid back city
    2.) Weather is similar to Philippines
    3.) Same time with Philippines
    4.) Perth has more engineering job potential (mining,construction, building)
    5.) More Filipinos in Perth compared to Eastern states (Filo community)
    6.) Much nature occupied land dominantly than city landscape
    7.) Western aussie people were more lenient to new migrants (racial disc avoided)

    Also, dito rin ang classmate ko ng high school na initial ko titirahan.

    Open pa rin naman kami ng family sa ibang state eventually. We'll see when I get from there

    @shemsimi GSM Brisbane ka or Adelaide? Agree, does not end on grant but begin new journey on job hunt which is the difficult part of the migration process. Sana naman nasa ere na rin ang grant notice namin. Kakainip na rin. Paalis pa naman kami ng family to HK next week for a week vacation.

    GSM Brisbane po, Andrei lang ang pangalan ng CO ko na nakalagay po dun sa letter. pero ang bait nya sakin kasi direct grant kaagad. Parang may nabasa nga po ako dito na matagal daw magbigay ng grant ang GSM Brisbane. I think we just have to surrender to God the things that we can't control. siguro po tumagal lang ang sa inyo kasi madami ka po kasama sa application. sakin kasi ng-iisa lang po ako. Before ng vacation nyo po grant na yan, mas masaya mag bakasyon pag ganun hehehe
