@StarJhan as far as I know po hindi. Only PR's po ang may previlege for medicare and centrelink benefits. But of course yun pong TFN pwede po kayo non mag apply

Lex55 · September 2016

@jedh_g salamat sa info

Hello all. My nka experience na po ba dito na nag renew ng passport dahil less than 1 year nalang yung validity pero hindi pa naka initial entry? Thanks

se29m · November 2016

@Makaryo yup madami na nakashare ng experience. Inform mo lang si dibp after you get your renewed passport

Makaryo · November 2016

@se29m thanks! God bless u

Hi.. Thanks for sharing theses points with us.. other than that i would say one should roam around to know the medical facilities, public convenience, Market etc. so that you may easily approach to those places immediately whenever you need them.

Magandang araw sa lahat. I am backreading pero di ko yata mahanap yung info aboiut the requirements sa pagregister sa centrelink. I know i need to go there and get the CRN. I need to give them a copy of our passport, visa grant document, bank account info, my child's immunsation documents. Is this correct? Thank you.

at least $100 per day... half of that will be reimbursed by the gov't but only up to a max of $7k per year ata.

Hello guys and gals,

Good day po, tanong ko lang po sana ulit.

Na grant na po yung PR application namin ni fiancée . Then plan po kasi namin mag first entry this August and plan namin to permanently move by January next year ("Hopefully everything goes well as we planned").

Ang question ko lang po is, pwede na po ba namin i-apply yung mga TFN, Bank Account then yung medicare and the rest is by January na? Few days lang kasi ung magiging pagpunta namin sa August dahil naubos na ang aming leave

Thank you very much!

Ano po nilagay nyo sa immigration card na sinusulatan sa airport kung ano purpose ng pagpunta sa australia?

Visa 489 po ako. Ilagay ko ba dun Migration?
Tapos sa syney ako muna for a month to visit my sister. Ano po ilagay ko, visit ba o migration? Hehehe sorry kinakabahan po kasi ako sa big move namin

IslanderndCity · August 2017

@kisses1417 migration - even in Sydney ka pa. exciting na yan ah...

kisses1417 · August 2017

@IslanderndCity thanks po. Papalapit ng papalapit nakakanerbyos hihihi
Uulitin ko po tanong ko dati, may need po ba ako attendan na seminar gaya ng iba? Kasi sabi po pag visa 489 wala e. Kaso baka naman maharang ako at di makaalis dahil wala ako cfo sticker ba yun.

Pandabelle0405 · September 2017

Good day Kabayan

Ask ko lng po if u are already in OZ as PR allowed pa rin po ba tau mag exit like mag tour lang po sa singapore or malaysia. Thank u po. Godbless

egroj1002 · September 2017

@Pandabelle0405 Kapag may PR visa ka, allowed ka mag-exit/entry sa Oz up to 5 yrs from the date of visa grant. Naka-indicate sa visa yung "Must not arrive after" which means dapat nasa Oz ka before that date. Kung gusto mong lumabas at pumasok uli ng Oz after the 5th yr, dapat ay either Oz citizen ka na or meron kang Resident Return Visa (RRV).
