  @jample Update na din po kayo ng Signature. Congrats ulit! Siguro kung napadala mo yung PTE score report baka direct grant at mas maaga mo nakuha yung grant? Pero it doesn't matter hehehe! All in God's perfect time. Sana maramdaman ko na din soon ang pakiramdam ng nakakuha na ng grant.

  @jample Salamat! Salamat! Sana nga. Sana nga. Nakakabaliw mag-antay! Di ko maimagine pakiramdam mo kasi mas matagal ka pang nag aantay kesa sa kin. Pero darating na din yung grant mo for sure!
  
  Parang automatic ata siya nagsend kung chineck mo yung Send to DIBP pag nagbook ng PTE. Nakakuha din kasi ako kagad ng notification galing Pearson on the day na nakakuha ako ng result na napadala na daw sa DIBP results ko kahit wala akong ginawa. Hehe!

  @MayoMay Hello po. Kakabasa ko lang po ng email from Immi. 11:56am ko po nareceive today yung immi grant notice. 57 days po yung paghihintay ko since nag lodge ako ng visa gawa po ng may nirequest saking additional requirement. Hopefull po makuha nyo narin po yung sa inyo super soon! God bless po.

  oi congrats @jample buti ka pa meron na....sana kami din... whaaaaaaaaa....kami kasi nag pay ng visa ng Nov. 22. tapos Nov. 30 binalikan ng CO, magpass daw kami ng additional payslip. so may alloted kami na 20days na deadline bago ipass.. napass namin sya Dec. 16. so mga 4 days before deadline. after nun nag email si CO, wait daw kami ng another 48 days para sa result. so if start ng Dec 17 hanggang Feb 2 ang ika 48 days namin... so mag wait pa kami noh? hangng makumpleto ung 48 days? dapat mag worry na kami after Feb 2 if wala pa din balita.. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.. super tagal... kung itotal sya mula sa lodging nasa 72 days ang mangyari bago ang possible na golden email... sana soon meron na!!! super inip na... kami na lang ata naiwan sa batch ng nov. :-(

  @MayoMay If I may ask, ano po yung original na sinubmit ninyo na employment documents. Bakit po kaya kayo nahingan pa ng payslips & ITR from 2011 to 2013.

  one company lang kasi ung partner ko. nagwork sya since 2006 to present sa isang company. ang napass lang namin payslip/itr from 2014-2016... gsto nila imake sure namin na nagwork tlga sya simula pa noon. instead na manghingi sila ng payslip from 2006. sguro ok na ung COE na nakastate ung starting ni partner sa work sa company na un. nagrequest na lang sila ng simula 2011-2013 para naman sa start ng naconsider na credited work exp nya. yung 2006-2011 kasi naconsider na pang add sa education skills. kaya sya nagbachelor equivalent. tapos nacredit sa work exp ay 2011-2016 nya sa company.. so baka kaya kami hiningan. pansupport sa start ng work exp na credited.... wla na kami makita payslip for that kasi tagal na kaya nag pass kami sss contri at ITR.. para makita nagreremit si company noon pa

  Hi malalaman po ba ng agent mo if magemail ka sa gsm allocated to ff up your application?may implication ba if ginawa mo un? Or any transaction should be between the agent and CO only..Di rin kasi ako mapakali eh.hehe..

  not necessarily unless the CO contacts the agent. but i wouldnt suggest u contact the CO directly, just try your agent and wait. unless u think may something na nagcause ng delay. check with with the agent first.
