@kuya.king
Salamat sa mga inputs.
Kaya ko kakailanganin mag resign kasi kailangan ko tupadin yung residency obligation ko sa Canada. Sa estimate ko April 2020 ako mag 9 years (para magka 5yrs sa skilled employment=65 pts, 4yrs kasi dineduct sa ACS), tapos by July dapat makabalik ako dito at magspend ng 2 years.
Ang plan is magresign ako, lodge EOI, balik dito sa Canada at maghintay mainvite.
Tapos iuupdate ko yung EOI ko ng current location.
Medyo suntok sa buwan haha pero parang worth a try e.
Sa 2020 pa marerealize itong plan ko kung magwork. Wishful thinking na sana mas marami sila kunin by then or mas maging maluwag sila.

For the medical results @albertus1982 @joshx no need na din to upload the result. They can check it directly in their medical portal once they see that you're done with the medical. i had the same question before, and wala ako inupload pero wala naman naging issue.
Wala padin grants:(
