    @jedh_g hello :) about sa DL si hubby ko kasi expired din by aug yung license. July pa lang nagparenew na sha pwede daw kasi magparenew a month before expiry. Mine naman kumuha ako ng non pro from student. Need kasi talaga ang card sa au. Kaso nga wala pa iniissue si Lto. Nakiusap na lang kame sa LTo sabi namen na aalis na kame and we also showed them a copy of our plane ticket. Ifollow up na lng daw pag malapit na umalis. So hopefully mabigyan kame before umalis

    @Abby_ thanks sa inputs. What LTO branch have you requested your Driver's ID card issuance request? Plan to take a day off from work para maayos na 'to. Ma-eexpire na kasi sa 'kin on my birthday this Sunday kaya looking for an option pa on what branch ng LTO pwede mag-issue ng card. Paalis na rin kasi ako this October kaya sana mahabol pa marelease. Hope you could shed light kasi it seemed na hindi pwede (AU honored) kahit yung DFA-LTO certificate na naayos ko na rin with red ribbon still.

    @jedh_g LTO Muntinlupa. Backlog kasi nila for the release of cards last Feb pa. Basta follow up lang daw tawagan sila pag malapit na umalis. Sana nga mabigyan kame before kame umalis. Lahat ng branches nila wala daw card available. Basta pag pumunta ka bring a copy of your plane ticket :)

    Thanks @elleb1 sure! Confirm ko Lang sa lahat na pwedeng initial entry Lang say 1 wk tapos balik Pinas then babalik within 4 yrs? Tama po ba?

    @iam_juju oo pued mo gawin yun basta nasa Aus ka before dun sa stated na expiration date. Valid naman for 5 years yung ating visa. Kami din 10 days lng initial entry and hopefully after 1-2 years e makabalik na for the big move.

    @Cassey hello and thank you. Lapit na nga flight ko. I'm about to get the courage already to say my farewell to my boss. Mixed emotions pa and I am praying that my flight to Sydney then Perth shall be safe considering solo. Happy and excited as my family shall be spent first time Christmas at Australia. Best regards to you Sis and hope to see you soon! :-bd

    @Abby_ I already renewed my LTO driver's license today. No choice kundi wait until 1-2 weeks from actual flight date. Pwede naman daw i-rush ang LTO license ID card basta present lang actual flight booking ticket at visa grant letter.

    TO ALL:

    I would just like to share something, pag napunta na po kayo rito sa Australia please get an ambulance cover for your family just in case an untoward incident happens... It's very expensive to pay for an ambulance without the cover. Yung 20min na itatakbo ng ambulance is already $1100... Pano kung malayo yung hospital, just like what happened to someone we knew who paid around $7700 for it... If you have the cover its just $89 for the whole family na and its good for a year already. :) Just a little amount for a year of protection.

    @Cassey where do we get this type of family ambulance coverage facility? Could you share which agency of the government should we arrange this? Thanks for the concern this is valid.
