    @auitdreamer tumawag din ako sa unionbank kaso up to 100k lang daw ang eon. Baka may gustong magpahiram ng credit card sa inyo. :) I can meet up with you para magbayad :D

    @Asha magkano need mo credit limit sa card? Sayang nabawasan kc citibank credit limit ko due to paylite installments. :( Pede ba split into 2 or 3 different credit cards? I can lend you if that's possible.

    @Asha Yan din naging problem ko with my BPI Credit Card. Mali din yung sinabi sakin ng agent over the phone. Mas maganda pumunta ka sa malaking branch. You can ask for a temporary increase ng credit limit for this one transaction, sabihin mo lang yung date range kung kelan mo plano gamitin yung credit card. In my case, they asked for a printout nung payment page sa ImmiAccount.

    1 anzco (nominated job) submit sa assessing body if your skills are needed
    2 PTE (English exam)
    3 eoi (expression of interest) interest to apply
    4 wait ITA (invitation to apply). To apply for visa
    5 visa lodge (apply for visa)
    6 medical
    7 submit all requirements

    Hope this helps
