newbie question lang po. I hope matulungan niyo ako. ask ko kung pwede ba ako mag submit ng Expression of Interest considering my points or need ko mag ielts ulit or PTE muna. paki advise din po kung tama yung points ko . thank you.
age = 38yo; 25 points
Employment = assessed by ACS (ICT Support Engineer - 9 years) 20 points
Bachelors degree = 15 points
nominated by state (subclass 190) = 5 points
IELTS = Listening = 7.5, reading =6.5, writing = 6.5, speaking = 6.5 = 0 points

1. What details to provide under the Health Examination? May HAP ID na entry naman sa baba so not sure ano ilalagay dito. I'm thinking it's the tests I took during the exam but I want to be sure.
2. Ano ba dapat included sa "Non-migrating dependent family members". I am married but I don't have any children and I have already included my wife's credentials sa accompanying family members. May trabaho naman parents at brothers ko so dpat ba "No" sagot ko dito? Di rin sila sasama sa application ko.
3. Under sa employment history ni wife, kailangan din ba siya magprovide ng COE's nya with details ng kanyang tasks and responsibilities? Akala ko kasi di na needed by partner magprovide nito.
Thanks ulit sa tulong nyo.

For example I got 2 police clearance (PH & SG) since I'm currently based in SG. I got my PH one last year pa. Alin po ang susundin na expiry is it SG in my case since ito ang current residence ko or PH pa din based on the date kasi ito ang pinakamauuna magexpire?

After my ITA, nagreply ang EA Assessor ko at nag apologize at magbibigay sila ulit ng Positive Outcome with RSEA same date nung unang outcome na naissue nya.
Sabi ko sa email sa kanya ok lang sakin na mag issue sya ng new outcome but make sure na walang magiging conflict sa date ng EOI at ITA ko.
Sa tingin nyo po ok lang ang ganitong sitwasyon?wala kaya magiging problema sa visa application ko?
