@elained I submitted CoE from Big Boss, Reference Letter from HR, Letter from Accountant, Saudi Work Permit.
Hindi na ako nag submit, payslip, bank statements, tax forms, bir, contract, offer letters and salary increment mails. Tingin ko kasi, pag less data it makes it easier for them to verify. Kung kulang, di hingi sila. hehe Luckily, naka Grant nmn ako.

@gillianLeoh2017, Pwedi ka yata mag request lang ng bank certificate without any purpose. Kung sakali hingian ka, sabihin mo, purpose "Proof of Fund". Hindi papadala sa AU or sa Embassy. Ikaw kukuha nun, scan mo, then upload na.
