Guys musta na preparations ok n ba lahat?

mehawk28 · October 2016

@pedrosg hi nagbayad pa kau kay baby sa visa nya?
pano nyo ininform c CO by email na pregnant c wife mo?
kc same case kc tau buntis c misis ngaun. tnx

pedrosg · October 2016

Hi @mehawk28, Free na si baby since pinanganak sya before dumating ung visa grant.

Hindi namin iniinform si CO kasi wla pa kmi CO contact that time. What we did is we go ahead with the medical checkup for me and wife, then yung clinic na ung nghold ng medical application ni misis. Sa immi-online makikita "pending" pa ung medical ni misis. Sabi ni clinic, hindi nmn daw kmi mkakakuha ng grant while my pending medical kmi kya no need to inform na. Pero if in case my CO contact na kyo, inform nyo n lng din.

After birth ni baby, ininform ko na sila via IDBP online > Update Us > Change in Circumstances (same as form 1022), then the rest follows based sa signiture ko.

Nakpaglodged na ba kyo? Kailan due date ni misis?

mehawk28 · October 2016

@pedrosg this week ang due nya. Kaka lodge lng nmin ngaun ng application. Haaay ang hirap pla dami aayusin hehe

Thank u sa pag sagot.

Hi to all! Nag initial entry na po kmi sa Perth last October 29th and got back here in Singapore last November 5th.

We renewed my child passport and update DIBP by sending form 929 together with the copy of new and old passports to [email protected]. last October 18th. They replied the same day telling me that they already updated my child's passport information. I also checked VEVO, and updated na agad sya. However, when we arrived at the airport, they still had to verify my child's passport. Pero few minutes lng nman and hindi malaking abala.

Monday last week, we went to Perth CBD to meet my NAB banker and submit our medicare application as well as centrelink. We also applied for TFN online. All went well except for my NAB, i was quite disappointed, they still don't have the cards with them, even if I already notified them two weeks ahead of my arrival. They told me the card would arrive 4-5 days pa. Sabi ko Friday babalikan ko, but she said she don't want to commit coz baka daw Monday p dumating. (Saturday is our flight back here) So i said, cge pagbalik ko na lng ng January.

Our friend informed us yesterday that they received the letter bearing our TFNs as well as the Centrelink confirmation letters. So 1 week lang halos ang waiting time. Waiting for Medicare na lang.

Australians are nice people. So far, okay nman experience nmen habang nagaayos ng mga dapat ayusin. We are also able to confirm and experience kung paano b ang pamumuhay don. Sobrang relaxed. Sobrang gusto na namen talaga don. Haha Preparing for big move na kmi. Hopefully by end of January.

Captain_A · November 2016

@eun08 nice to know na you had a nice experience.. naexcite n din ako

eun08 · November 2016

@Captain_A oo nga eh, nung magland n kme sa airport, i was like "at long last, nandito n kme s pangarap na bansa" haha nakkaexcite talaga!

Kailan ang big move nyo?

pink · November 2016

@eun08 wow, it nice to read posts ng mga personal experiences sa au. Looking forward to experience the same.

Makaryo · November 2016

hi @eun08, clarify ko lang sana, ung nag update ka ng passport ang ginawa mo is nag email ka lang ng form 929 together with the copy of new and old passports to [email protected]? yun lang po ba ginawa nyo at di na kailangan mag upload pa sa form sa ImmiAccount? maraming salamat po..

eun08 · November 2016

@Makaryo yes, un lang po. Send lang po s email add na un. Nag-inquire po kc ako before sa Australian High Commision dito sa Singapore last August, eto po ung reply nila:

To update passport details

1. complete Form 929. You may download the Form 929 at www.border.gov.au/allforms/pdf/929.pdf

2. email the completed form with scan copy of the biodata page of the old and new passport to [email protected]

The passport details will be updated within 2-5 working days. Please note that, due to the volume of requests we receive, you may not be notified when this has been done.

Nagnotify nman po sila the same day na naupdate nila ung passport details and when I checked VEVO, updated na nga po sya.

eun08 · November 2016

@pink yes sis! You will see how accommodating yung mga tao don lalo na s government. Sa immigration pa lang, ramdam mo na.

jmban33 · November 2016

@eun08 bro may mga proposect ka na work se perth sa January?

se29m · November 2016

eun08 · November 2016

@jmban33 sis po ako, hahaha! Wala p me prospect.. Sa oil and gas kc ako, medyo matumal ung hiring.

pero ung hubby ko sya ang maraming opportunities, technician kc sya. Bago kme pumunta ng perth, ngaapply n kme online. Nung nandon kme, me ngreply sa kanya and na-phone interview n sya. Sabi iforward daw s manager. Although wala pa or wala ng feedback, good sign n rin at least me tumawag. Hehe
Parang ngpalakas b ng loob nmen n pumunta n don kahit wala p work..
kelan ang big move nyo?

eun08 · November 2016
