I am just curious to know if you guys waited for the CO to be assigned before uploading the documents, or you uploaded them while waiting for the CO? I have lodged my visa application already, and we went to Nationwide for medical last Saturday, but I don't know what should I do after that.
Thank you in advance!

Pero regarding the visa. Assuming naka pag process na ng Visa tapos naka Golden Letter na. How much time do I have before moving to AU? May expiry po ba yung visa, na for example, kung di ka mag AU in 6 months, ma cacancel ang visa mo. May ganun po ba?

@Chad after ur medical upload mo na lahat ng mga evidences mo sa mga claims mo during eoi. Log in ka sa immi account tapos upload all necessary docs before ka macontact ng co. Mas maigi wag mong hintayin ma co contact ka kasi matagal kay babalikan gaya namin. Mas advisable kung upload mo na lahat para malaking chance maka Direct Grant ka. ^^
@Jan_ yes meron yang expiry .. halos lahat dito .merong palugit na almost 1 yr before you need to enter australia para di magexpire visa mo. ^^ since di ko pa nakita ang golden email meron ata nakalagay dyan sa letter ang initial entry date. Ano sa palagay mo @eujin ikaw nalang mag.explain...hahaha wala pa kasi akong grant.. still waiting for that golden email. ^^
