    @thisisme1 hi batchmates, this might help.. credits to @engineer20 for this.

    https://www.dss.gov.au/our-responsibilities/settlement-services/beginning-a-life-in-australia

    download nyo lang ung PDF (1.9mb, 128 pages). "Beginning Your Life in Australia" yung title.

    Sa pinas, need mo lang attend ng PDOS tapos bibigyan ka nila ng CFO sticker worth 400 pesos. Hahanapin yan ng immig officer pag aalis ka na ng bansa.

    Pag dating mo ng AU airport, nasa system na nila agad yung passport details mo. If nag change ka ng passport number, upload ka ng form 929 sa immiaccount at dalhin mo rin yung lumang passport mo for verification.

    So far wala nmn akong nabasa na kahit ano pang kelangan during your entry to AU.

    @sunisle sa grant ba? sa baba GSM lang nakasulat sayo? Eh yung address? Sakin kasi nakalagay GSM Adelaide. Lagay mo na sa signature timeline mo para mas madali ka masagot pag may questions ka.

    1.) Go to Account Options icon sa top-right part ng page, katabi ng username mo, tabi ng star.
    2.) Tapos sa left panel, may Signature Settings.
    3.) makikita mo na text area for signature. Maglagay ka then save.

    @thisisme1 , @rich88 .. nakapagtry ako magPDOS dati.. matagal ng panahon.. hehe..

    Sinasabi lang dun kung ano ang buhay abroad. Kung ano dapat paghandaan etc. Para sa akin, dapat required lang yun sa mga first timer mag-abroad. Dapat exempted na mga dating nasa abroad.
