actually, kung may kakilala ka dito , pwede mo hingin printout ng notice of assessment mo for the previous years pag wala ka nang copy - baka pwedeng ipakuha sa authorized person. punta lang sa IRAS sa novena office although may bayad na < 10 sgd per page. yun yung ginawa ko kasi 10 yrs na ako dito at nawawala yung iba kong NOA so nagpaprint ako - pwede nila iprint agad yun.
Yung bank stmt ko walang problem kasi merong copy sa DBS online banking pero pag nagparint out ka ng statement , would you believe 50 SGD per page! so parang di yun option kung wala kang bank statement copy sa online.
anyway kasi na CO contact ako at specific hinihingi nya so wala akong choice but to get those docs

Thanks po.

As per DIBP - "All pro rata occupations have reached their ceiling for this programme year. No further invitations will be offered for these occupations until the 2017-2018 programme year."
Hoping for the 16 caveats occupation in the MLTSSL will still remain in the new official 2017-18 programme.
