I've been reading and checking this forum for a year and talaga pong nakakatulong sa mga applicants.
Na-invite na po kami last November 13, 2017 ng NSW and nagpre-prep na kami for lodging ng visa. Napapansin ko po almost lahat ng members dito nagpapamedical na before mag lodge. We would like to do that also sana, kasi nag a-aim din kami for DG.
Medyo naguguluhan lang kami sa pag-generate ng HAP ID.
Question po, tama po ba na to generate HAP ID, sa Immiaccount ay icli-click yung "New Application" tapos next "Health" then "My Health Declarations" ?
Thank you in advance sa mga makakasagot!
God Bless po!
