    @bunnyhunter Hi yes sa nationwide makati ko dinala baby ko. She's 3 years old. If 2 years old below baby mo ok lang dun but if 3 years old above sa st lukes ka na lang. Hindi maganda experience ko sa makati for kids 3 years old above. Hindi sila mahusay and hindi sila considerate.

    @melvenb for what yung stat dec? For my case, I need the stat dec for my job description. I went to Andrew EE in Adelphi bldg (harap ng Funan mall sa City Hall Mrt). Price is 80 sgd if they draft it and lesser if ikaw magsulat (I forgot how much). Hindi ko pa na try yung sa Australian embassy :(

    @kokomuz, I went to the AU embassy today after booking an appointment.. mura lang 21 SGD.. saving tip para sa mga nababalak magpa statutory declaration dito sa SG..

    Hello. Mayroon po bang taga-Petaling Jaya, Malaysia rito sa forum? Kakareceive ko kasi ng invitation kahapon.
    1) Pwede na po ba ako magpa-medical exam agad?
    2) saan ang nearest na place from Petaling Jaya. Kakarating ko lang kasi dito last week from Pinas. Nagulat ako meron na agad.
    3) Estimates kung magkano aabutin in MYR.

    Thank you in advance.

    @bogart congrats sa CO contact. na-provide mo na ba hinihingi nila? Konti lang lang yan, Grant na. Good luck!

    @periwinkle hope ma-complete na din SG COC mo soon para DG rin like @Anino78 . Na-release na rin yung kay hubby this morning, na-upload ko na rin.

    @amazing_kisses Congrats sa ITA! You may check this link for the list of panel clinics in Malaysia. KL na I suppose ang nearest sa Petaling Jaya. https://www.border.gov.au/Lega/Lega/Help/Location/malaysia

    @liam hi DG or direct grant means when you lodged your visa application hindi ka na maka experience ng CO (case officer) contact kasi ang 1st and one only communication na ma receive mo is the Grant letter - madami nakaka receive ng DG dito all of them uploaded all the required docs during visa application lodgement. But of course medical exam is one major factor too basta clear na medicals and frontloaded mo lahat n docs mo upon visa application - mataas chance ng DG

    But this is not a guarantee, marami din cases na frontloaded mo na lahat then CO will contact you to upload certain document kahit na upload mo na - meron times na na overlook ni CO ang ibang document.


    Godbless!

    Hello @StarJhan thanks for the explanation. Ibig sabihin ba na when they lodge their visa application, kasama na yung character and health documents including yung form 80?

    @liam welcome! Yes ganun nga. Pero pwede din pag ka lodge tsaka kmuha ng mga police clearance then better pag na upload mo yun prior to CO contact para may chance pa din ma DG. Yung form 80 yes pwede mo din i-frontload agad.
