    @amoj sa case ko nagsubmit ako. Kung ano yung sinubmit ko sa ACS for skills assessment. Although not sure kung naging factor sya sa Visa grant kasi di naman ako nag claim points for employment.

    Hello, bago lng ako dito.. found out about this forum and mas okay kc pinoy.
    Tanong ko lng po if anyone experienced de facto partner for visa 189..ano ano po ung mga proof na inupload nyo?

    tsaka po gano pala katagal ung grant? Processing na kmi ng gf ko pra sa mga documents na iupload.

    Salamat po sa tulong.

    Wow ang daming grants ngaun September.. To God be the Glory! Sa mga nag hihintay pa ng sa knila konting tiis pa at samahan ng dasal. Mas masarap yung feeling na magugulat ka na lng na may email ka na pla na grant ka na hehehe.

    Nag lodged ako ng visa application under visa 190 state nomination Feb 23, 2017 CO contact ko according sa agent ko ay March 31, 2017 after that hndi na muna nag paramdam Case officer ko tapos September 11 may grant na almost 7 months kya kapit lng kau guys..

    Sa nag tatanong kung ganu katagal ang waiting time after makapag lodge ng visa
    application depende kc yun.. madaming factors pro nasa website nla yung time span sa visa 189 ata 6-10 months sa visa 190 nman 10-13 months. Nag uupdate cla dun sa website nla kya better to check it always from there.

    Hello everyone! Ask ko lang po. I supposed to undergo my medixal exam, I haven't lodge my visa yet. So i created HAP ID. Kaya lng nung ipprint ko na ung referral letter, examinations in progress ung lumalabas. Eh hindi pa naman ako nagstart magpamedical? Has anyone encountered this? I underwent medical exam last december for my tourist visa, but it's going to expired this december. Thanks in advance!
