Question po. Based kasi sa requirements ni VIC, kailangan ko ng 3 years experience to qualify for state nomination. May total of 6 years of experience ako, kaya lang 5 years yung deduction sakin ni ACS. To applye for state nomination sa VIC, alin po ba ang susundan? Yung skilled met date ni ACS or yung actual experience?
Salamat sa mga sasagot po.
261312 Developer Programmer - (English - 20pts | Age - 30pts. | Qualification - 10 | Experience - 0 ) = 60pts.
Subclass 189 - 60pts.
Subclass 190 - (60 + 5 spouse points + 5 SN) = 70pts.

Question po. Magiging problem kaya if ang address sa NBI clearance ni hubby is different from the last address in the Phils na nakaindicate sa visa application form? At pwede bang kumuha ulit ng NBI kahit hindi pa expired yung last nya?
