  @heavybane walang expiry yung HAP ID bro. Pwede ka rin mag generate kahit ilan if nagkamali ka.
  
  In my case, 3x ako nagkamali ng pag fill up sa MyHealthDeclaration. Ang ginawa ko, dinelete ko lang yung ibang application sa immiaccount tapos generate lang ng bagong HAP ID.
  
  Be consistent lang sa mga details na sinasagutan mo dyan kasi yung ibang identity details dyan sa health declaration e tatanungin ulit dun sa electronic form para sa visa application na. Be consistent to avert future issues.

  @rich88 may tanong din ako, sa other identity documents na section, stated kasi na ilagay ang name exactly kung ano nakalagay sa identity document mo.. sa case ng Marriage cert, middle initial lang nakalagay,.. magiging inconsistent sa ibang documents like birth and driver's license which is full name talaga, example Leila Magistrado de Lima pero sa marriage cert is Leila M. de Lima lang..

  @delorian yung Magistrado ba eh yung surname ng mom mo? If oo, ok lang yun. Hindi sila mahigpit sa middle name. Sundin mo lang kung ano yung nasa certificate. Makikita naman nila na consistent ang nilagay mo based sa marriage certificate.
  
  In my case, sa EOI ko, SS application, ACS assessment, PTE assessment, walang middle name. Sa Form 80, 1221, health declaration, at sa immiaccount lang ako naglagay ng middle name. Hindi naman nagka problema.
  
  Kahit nga sa visa grant letter, hindi rin nila nilagay yung middle name kahit na meron sa
  application.
  
  Pwera na lang kung Bato De la Rosa yung CO mo, rejected kagad pag nakita Leila M. De Lima hahahaha
  
  @tweety11 yung iba "no" ang sinagot, no big deal naman.

  @shaynetot yung 190 may additional na step, EOI-ITA for nomination-ITA for visa application imbis na EOI-ITA agad for 189. For EAs like us, NSW lang yung nakitaan ko na nasa list nila tayo so kung di nyo kinoconsider yung NSW (where you have to live for 2 years), wait for 189 nalang siguro
  
  May fee din pala yung nomination, pero 300AUD lang naman sa pagkakatanda ko kung hindi issue sainyo yung pera. Medyo mabilis yung 190 kung titignan mo yung tracker ko
  
  Eto yung link for NSW nomination for detailed info: http://www.industry.nsw.gov.au/live-and-work-in-nsw/visas-and-immigration/skilled-nominated-migration-190
