May question o ako sa pag mail ng hardcopy ng fingerprints via LBC or DHL from pinas to SG (SPF). Ano hong nilagay nyong contact person sa SPF? kasi ayaw hong tanggapin ng LBC yung generic lang na contact like for example Singapore Police Force COC office kelangan daw nila ng name at contact number kahit na may address ng SPF COC office. Hndi ko pa ho natry sa DHL but in case ano po nilagay ninyo sa mga nag send ng hardcopy ng finger prints to Singapore Police Force?
Sa mga nasa pinas ho, makakapag request o kayo sa Makati Central Police Station ng hardcopy ng fingerprints in case kelangan nyo para masend sa SPF or Singapore Police Force. Mabilis lang ho

I just sent my hardcopy of fingerprints via DHL and they accepted to put the COC office and address then i used the COC hotline: 6435 8277 as contact number and I was informed that the document will be received usually in one day. Hope matanggap kaagad ng COC office yung docs ko hehe No need na for particular name of person. Sa LBC o kasi malapit sa amin nag require pa sila ng contact name at number para maproceed kahit na inexplain na sa knila na isesend sa mismong office and no particular contact person.
Anyway, heads up na lang o base from experience, in case kelangan nyong mag send ng docs abroad, so far DHL is better than LBC hehe Im not sure if depende lang sa staff but so far base sa mga nabasa ko din sa thread na to, they've used DHL.
All the best!

Hindi pa kasi ako nagla-lodge visa, kaya plan ko sanang i-attach yung entire application form sa SG Police website as proof na may invite?
Bale yun yung pwedeng i-print at the end of the application. Nandun lahat ng details at yung mga declaraions mo. Parang review page kumbaga.

@rich88 bro, pwedeng pwede mag e-appeal for COC kahit di pa naka lodge visa. sumubok lang din kami ng wife ko, bale eto mga inupload ko the e-appeal:
Me (primary applicant):
1. ITA
2. Passport
3. NRIC front and back
4. Marriage Cert or proof of relationship if in de facto
Wife (dependent):
1. ITA
2. Passport
3. NRIC front and back
4. Marriage Cert or proof of relationship if in de facto
Then naglagay lang ako sa appeal plea for my wife ng simple letter like this:
To whom this may concern,
I want to appeal for Certificate of Clearance as required by the Australian Department of Interior and Border Protection for Skilled Migration Program.
Currently, my husband/de facto partner [FULL NAME] (primary applicant) received an invitation to apply for Visa subclass 189/190 and I'm declared as his dependent in our application.
I have attached several documentary proof of my relation to him (Marriage Certificate) and the ITA letter from Australian DIBP.
Hoping for your kind consideration on this matter.
Warm Regards,
[Partner Name]
