Hi Guys,
Question lang, nagiba kasi yung immiaccount page, parang nagkaron ata ng upgrade kasi di ko na makita yung Health assessment ng dependent ko. Nag email na din ako sa tech support nila.
May way ba para makita na no action required sa health assessment yung dependent ko?
Thanks in advance!

@ethelmariz click mo lang yung "View details" babalik ko dun sa dating interface nya.
@rosch binasa ko ulit ung nasa website. Pede nga paypal pag online application. Di lang sya pede pag nagpunta sa mismong office outside Aus. Ilang % ang surcharge pag paypal? Wala ako nakita sa website nila. Thanks

@albertus1982 naclick ko na po pero dun sa Health Declaration Page wala po ung name ng husband ko. Before ng system update nandun po yun, ngayon po wala.
Nagfifill out na po kasi ako ng visa application, ask ko na din po pala anu nilalagay dun sa Give details field dun sa question about "Has this applicant undertaken a health examination for an Australian visa in the last 12 months?" -- Yes po ang answer ko dito pero need mag give ng details?

Adding my name to this thread. I applied for EOI last June 27, occupation is code 261111, 189 visa points claim = 65.
My occupation is on pro-rata, so most likely I won't get an invitation this month. Hopefully I'll get one in the rounds around August or later. Peace!
@Strader@MP1984, nagkamali yung person na pag tag sa 189 immitracker, it shouldn't be granted, just a CO contact lang nangyari sa kanya with the delay email notification, kaloka di ba so meaning no grants yet

Little update about my case (follow up from June thread). Luckily, we don't need to pay second installment because my wife got above 30 score on the PTE-A. Also, we were able to get US local police clearance through the help of our friend in the state where we lived.
Now, my question is my wife is pregnant, and we expect that she delivers the baby by 2nd or 3rd week of October. Btw, her OB gave her consent for X-Ray, so we were able to get health clearance for myself, wife, and our first born. Not sure though if we are still going to fill up the form named "Notification of changes in circumstances" because she is pregnant. If we received grant before her due date, we are planning to fly to Australia and deliver the baby in the country.
Thanks in advance for your input as usual.

@rosch sa website ng dibp ung paypal pede lang sa applicants inside Aus kya di ko na sya option. Di kasi aabot ung credit limit ng cc ko.
@MissOZdreamer You can go to your bank and ask for a temporary increase ng credit limit. That's what I did. Ni-require lng ako ng BPI ng justification kung saan ko gagamitin so I presented a print-out ng online payment page showing the total application fee. It will take about 5-7 working days though.
Yung friend ko naman, he overpaid yung HSBC credit card niya para tumaas yung available balance. Then he informed HSBC na may ma-charge na amount greater than his credit limit pero hindi dapat ma-reject kasi pasok sa balance. Ayun OK naman yung transaction.
Or kung BPI ka din, you can apply for e-prepaid credit card parang walang limit.

for the sake of may mapagusapan habang lahat tayo nag-aantay , pano mangyayari na magkamali ka sa pagclaim ng points, i.e. sa age at sa yrs of experience when meron naman magaassess nun? like sa amin, for analyst programmers/software engineers, ang ACS naman yung magaassess kung ilang yrs of experience ka and kung ano equivalent ng education mo. or meron bang nagsusubmit ng EOI ng di dumaan sa assessing body? salamat mga kapatid!

Little update about my case (follow up from June thread).
Luckily, we don't need to pay second installment because my wife got above 30 score on the PTE-A. Also, we were able to get US local police clearance through the help of our friend in the state where we lived.
Now, my question is my wife is pregnant, and we expect that she delivers the baby by 2nd or 3rd week of October. Btw, her OB gave her consent for X-Ray, so we were able to get health clearance for myself, wife, and our first born. Not sure though if we are still going to fill up the form named "Notification of changes in circumstances" because she is pregnant. If we received grant before her due date, we are planning to fly to Australia and deliver the baby in the country.
Thanks in advance for your input as usual.

Yung friend ko naman, he overpaid yung HSBC credit card niya para tumaas yung available balance. Then he informed HSBC na may ma-charge na amount greater than his credit limit pero hindi dapat ma-reject kasi pasok sa balance. Ayun OK naman yung transaction.
Or kung BPI ka din, you can apply for e-prepaid credit card parang walang limit.
