  APPLICATION TIMELINE:

  04/03/17 - IELTS R6.5 W6.5 S7.5 L8.5 Good enough for EA Assessment (>6 each category). Haha. Self-review and not much time to practice kaya mababa scores. Haha. (Cge justify!). I think ang mali ko is nagfocus ako magreview ng Speaking and Listening.
  Note: Hindi pa acceptable ang PTE sa EA at this moment.

  24/04/17 - Submitted my application to EA.

  25/05/17 - EA requested for additional evidence of employment. I initially submitted Income Tax Return from my 2 employers so supposed to be enough. But since they requested more I uploaded my payslips then.

  15/06/17 - Finally! Received positive outcome from EA. Yuhoo!

  (Since not enough pa din IELTS english points ko to get total points higher than 60 requirement for Visa, i took another exam from PTE. Sabi nila mas madali daw kesa IELTS. Eh di Go! Tsaka sayang din yung score ko sa IELTS-Speaking baka bumaba pa. Haha)

  03/07/17 - Took PTE Exam. Hindi Madali!!! Haha. Siguro kulang ulit sa practice. Lol. I wasn't expecting na makapasa kasi may part sa lecture na wala akong nasabi. Haha. Pero yun, naka-74 ave. pa din. I therefore conclude na lenient talaga sila magscore. Hahaha. PTE Scores: L73, R71, S78, W83 (Results are out the next day)

  05/07/17 - Submitted EOI 189. Start ng fiscal year so everyone's expecting ng buhos ng invitation. Tan-tanan! Haha.

  10/08/17 - Super tagal ng invitation! Daming bad news (nag-cut ng staff ang dibp, processing time updated from 3 months, na naging 7 months then naging 11 months) Sa inip nagpasa ng EOI 190 for NSW. Dito lang pwede structural engr mag-EOI na walang show money eh. Haha. Sana pala Civil Engineer na lang occupation na pinili ko.

  06/09/17 - I got invited this round! Since ang tagal nga di ako nag-eexpect na kasama ako. Pero yehey! So I scheduled immediately for COC-Eappeal here in sg. Nagsked na din for medical (SATA Online).

  11/09/17 - SPF notified me that my e-appeal was approved. So I set appointment for fingerprinting. Got my COC on 15-Sep.

  16/09/17 - I am expecting to have my health exam. But decided to call SATA (the clinic) first to confirm my booking. They said they do not accept booking thru online. #Haist. The next available weekend dates are on the week after.

  23/09/17 - Had my Health Exam at SATA Ang Mo Kio. Results came out after 1 working day only.

  25/09/17 - Finally I LODGED MY VISA!!! Yuhoo ulit. I submitted all docs na pwede i-submit hoping for DG, hehe. (Forms 80 and 1221 included) Iniisip ko pa actually ano pa pwede ko i-add. haha.

  ---

  30/09/17 - Habang nag-aantay ng grant, mag-analyze muna ako. hehe.

  As per myimmitracker, below are the nos. of grants (For 189 lang ha) for the past 3 months:

  July : 29 grants
  Aug: 86 grants
  Sep: 611 grants.
  Mabilis nag-escalate ang nos from aug-sep. So I think nagsisimula na sila magmadali starting Sep. So Oct will also be the same. May quota kasi sila need mainvite per occupation kaya dapat maghabol talaga sila. So I am expecting showers of grants for the month of Oct. "Expecting". haha.

  God bless sa mga kasama kong nag-eexpect ng grant! and sa mga
  waiting for ITA next week na ang invitation round. All the best sating lahat! Power!!

  10/11/17 - Finally! Praise God! While busy working i accidentally opened my email and saw the new message from border.gov.au. Nanginig akong bigla sa tuwa. haha. I was supposed not to tell it yet to my family para surprise but I cannot contain it. Overjoyed feeling once mareceive mo ang iyong grant.

  God bless to the rest na nag-aapply pa lang and sa lahat ng waiting ng grants nila. Darating din yan at God's appointed time.

  Hi @lipatbahay no need po ng proof of fund sa 189, baka po 190 yung officemate mo and sa NT sya? afaik sila lang ang nanghihingi ng proof of funds.
  
  Please correct me if I'm wrong na lang sa ating mga kababayan here

  @lipatbahay may mga cases na hiningan ng statement of account pero hindi po proof of funds, tsaka malaki po yung 70k AUD baka tama nga si @miaka14 na NT nomination yan... Ang tanda ko ang di lang humingi ng proof of funds for 190 is si NSW at VIC, at kay VIC naman kailangan mo lang ideclare pero di required ang proof...

  @dorbsdee ahh marami pang backlogs kumbaga... Critical kasi yung malaman nating yung DG, huge decissions will be coming after that; in may case, benta ko pa yung bahay ko, work situations, financial needs for the big move, benta yung sasakyan/motor/appliances.
  
  Sana mas maaga yung na malaman ko DG ko because I am running out of financial resources since matagal yung ITA ko (9 months!). Ang daling mawala ng pera, hinde mo lang namalayan.
