  Congrats po sa lahat ng nakakuha ng invitation! I also feel parang kokonti nga po..maybe they are busy checking the US elections :-/
  I just wonder, does anyone here have an experience receiving an ITA after that "9PM" shower of grace from AU?

  @Teng10 fully automated ang visa 189 invitation. may nakaset na parameters lang sila for selection.

  @jample yung sa pagupload ng docs ay after pa ng payment pero yung pag generate ng HAP ID for medicals pwede mong gawin bago ka maglodge ng visa kung gusto mo. create ka ng new application sa health sa immiaccount.
