@Ozlaz hindi na DG since forgot ni misis I-send yung PTE digital cert nya sa DIBP. but after that, wala naman na ni require na docs and na grant na.
Medyo simple lang application ko but I make sure complete based sa document checklist ng DIBP.
Hindi na din ako nag submit ng Form 80/1221.
Payslip, recent pay slip lang (1 month)
Hindi na din ako nag provide ng taxes.
Passport size photo yung iba nag bigay - hindi na din ako nag bigay nito.
SSS hindi na din ako nag send even Bank statement.
CV, hindi na din ako nag upload.
But of course I prepared them in case kailanganin.
Hope this help.
