PDOS Question.. about initial entry

NetEngr · February 2017

... Just a question If my family is coming from Singapore? will AU 1mmig require PDOS upon initial entry?

Can we settle our PDOS later on once we go back to Manila?

Strader · February 2017

I think PDOS is only applicable if you are entering Au from PH.

Let's just wait for others yong nakatry na. ^^

Just to close this.. the PDOS seminar is very helpful.. we just attended a few days ago..

Hi po, para doon sa mga nagPDOS na hindi taga manila, saan po ok na hotel/hostel magstay? Yung near lng sana sa venue.

Question lang. Kailangan pa din ba mag PDOS if nakapag initial entry na ng AU? Sa case ko kc, I'm planning to go directly from Jeddah to AU then stay there for a cople of weeks bago ko umuwi ng Pinas ng ilang days lang pra sunduin si family. Ang worry ko eh bka hanapan pko ng cfo sticker kahit nkapag initial entry nko ng AU.

Thanks in advance sa makakasagot.
All the best!

Nagpunta kami ni hubby s PDOS knina.. Galing n din kami aussie.. Buti n lang nakausap ko yung isang pinay habang nakapila s toilet.. Tapos nung magbabayad n kami.. Nilapitan nya ako.. Sinabi nya no need n daw ako attend seminar, exempted n daw kami kasi galing na kami aussie. Need to pay 400 p din to have the sticker.

@Strader Walang hahanapin sau kundi passport. Pero print mo na rin yung visa grant in case hingin.

Straight from the Middle East ako nung magpunta ako OZ kaya wala PDOS.

Pero OK nga mag-attend ng PDOS kase may mga pointers sila na helpful. Sa mga experienced OFWs naman mas marami na tayo nalalaman kesa sa mga maririnig natin sa PDOS (:

hello everyone, I have a question lang po. We will be travelling to SYD this August para sa BM namin on 189 visa. May I ask kung may nilagay pa kayong mga "petitioner"? Or did you just leave that blank?

rosch · July 2017

@towbee the principal applicant is the petitioner. The "DATA OF NEAREST FAMILY MEMBER IN THE PHILIPPINES" is a relative who is not migrating. You have to input a contact number in Australia. If you have none, your friend's or future housemate's contact number will do.

Hello! May question po ako. Thanks in advance sa mga sasagot. Need po ba mag PDOS kahit initial entry muna? Di ba pwedeng pakiusapan na babalik naman ng saudi? Ipapakita nalang yung documents na babalik kami ng saudi (e.g. tickets, re-entry visa). Nandito po kasi kami sa Saudi at mag initial entry muna sana. Problema kase is nakabili na ng tickets and booking sa hotel, then saka ko lang nabasa na need mag PDOS. huhuhu

heero_yuy51 · February 2018

@ipolyyy if coming from Saudi and going back there (without visiting the Philippines) you won’t need the PDOS

ipolyyy · February 2018

@heero_yuy51 bale from Saudi, uwi muna ng pinas, then punta ng Sydney then balik pinas, then balik Saudi. Need parin ba PDOS? Thanks po sa reply. Baka naman pwede na ipakita nalang yung return tickets, hotel booking na 4 days stay lang sa Sydney, and yung OEC and visa na babalik pa kami ng Saudi.

heero_yuy51 · February 2018

@ipolyyy if uuwi ng Pinas, you would definitely need to apply for PDOS before you leave for Sydney. Apply ka na online then use one of your vacation days to attend.

Captain_A · February 2018

@ipolyyy i agree with @heero_yuy51

ipolyyy · February 2018

Thank you sa replies @heero_yuy51 @Captain_A

mga boss ang visa 489 ba kailangan PDOS?
kc alam ko sa PDOS ung PR lng pero ang 489 kc hindi classified sa PR.....TIA

heero_yuy51 · February 2018

@kh@L3L I had to attend PDOS when I worked in Finland before (temporary visa), one of the requirements before getting our OECs. Only those with student visas/internship visas/tourist visas ang hindi required kumuha ng PDOS.

Hunter_08 · February 2018

@kh@L3L for visa 489 no need na for PDOS.

EGMS_AU2017 · February 2018

@Hunter_08 pre ung 189 need ba pdos or hindi na?

kh@L3L · February 2018

@Hunter_08 boss ano pakita ko if ever walang PDOS?? TIA..... malayo pa ako sa part na yan pero buti if prepared ako in case ano needed sa PH immig

Hunter_08 · February 2018

@EGMS_AU2017 yup need ng PDOS ang 189 kung manggagaling ka sa PH-AU pero pag hindi ok lang maski wala muna pero kapag bumalik ka ng pinas for vacation then balik AU hahanapan ka pa din ng PDOS sticker kaya need mo pa din kumuna nun.

@kh@L3L yung visa grant lang enough na.

kh@L3L · February 2018

@Hunter_08 salamat ulit boss

pareho kc tau 489 visa kaya ayos

EGMS_AU2017 · February 2018

@Hunter_08 aah ok po sir salamat

Question: when you register sa site for pdos schedule, ano nilagay niyo na petitioner/sponsor on the first question? Di maka proceed and cant leave it blank.

Heprex · March 2018

@Shakespeare23 Petitioner is ikaw (Principal). hehe tapos iba is wife or son (dependent)

Shakespeare23 · March 2018

@Heprex thanks. I called CFO earlier before seeing your msg. Yes its principal, nasa dulo pala di ko nakita. Hehe.

Shakespeare23 · March 2018

Ano nilagay niyo before submission? Emigrant or Immigrant worker?

Heprex · March 2018

@Shakespeare23 Emigrant ata. yan

Shakespeare23 · March 2018

@Heprex yup emigrant. Pag immigration worker hahanapan ka ng aus company and other work stuff.

Hi! I have a question lang kasi I was granted visa subclass 489. Upon checking sa online registration para sa PDOS, wala yung subclass namin sa list. Ibig sabihin ba nun hindi namin kailangan umattend ng seminar?
