1. Dapat ko bang Ilagay ang middle name under sa given names? but ang worry ko is hindi na cya consistent sa EOI.
2. If isali ko ang middle name one line lang ba cya or two lines?
Example: Firstname: JUAN Middle Name: REYES Last Name: DELA CRUZ
All Given Names:
JUAN REYES
OR
Two lines:
All Given Names:
JUAN
REYES

Sorry I have another clarification HINDI po ito sa FORM 80.. ito ay sa Visa lodge / Immiaccount page question.
16/18
Previous countries of residence
Have any of the applicants lived in a country other than the primary applicant's usual country of residence?
My usual residence is Singapore. What should I put in the above question?
Ang sitwasyon ko is I'm working back and forth in Singapore.
2010 - 2011: Working in Singapore
2011 - 2012: Back in the Philippines
2012 - 2014: Working in Singapore
2014 - 2015: Back in the Philippines
2015 - current: Working in Singapore
I'm thinking of these possible answers. Which one is quite appropriate?
Option 1:
(Country) Philippines - (Date From) birthdate - (Date To) 2009
Option 2:
(Country) Philippines - (Date From) birthdate - (Date To) 2009
(Country) Philippines - (Date From) 2011 - (Date To) 2012
(Country) Philippines - (Date From) 2014 - (Date To) 2015

May mga tanong sana ako regarding sa immiaccount entries at form 80. I hope you can help me.
1. Sinong gumamit ng Birth Certificate dito as National Identity. Just wondering ano ilagay ko sa identification number?
2. Sa history ng jobs ko..
Company A - assessed (entered in the EOI)
Company B - assessed (entered in the EOI)
Company C - not assessed (NOT in the EOI) kasi wala akong proof like COE & payslip
Company D - assessed (entered in the EOI)
Sa Form 80 kailangan kong ilagay lahat ng employments ko.. is it SAFE if I'll put Company C sa Form 80 kahit wala sa EOI at Visa lodge/immiaccount?
Thanks in advance!

than those declared in Questions 6 or 7?
sa mga based overseas, "yes" po ba ang sagot dito?
