    @cheesyfiona yep normal yan. not sure lang kung bakit iba sinisendan nya. Based sa expatforum, parang CO contact din yan either may ginagawng verification or na-assign na yung case nyo sa Co. Pero iba iba kase ang situation.

    Guys, sa mga mag ssubmit pa lang ng docs. I noticed kasi na karamihan sa CO contact ay na submit na yung hininging document tas na overlook siguro ng CO. My advise is make sure all document names are clear. And some advise for direct grant.

    1. Cert of Employment - per employment talaga. wag i sabay lahat employment in 1 document kasi tendency yung first page lang tingnan tas ma miss yung other CoE if nasa 1 document.

    2. Naming docs - keep it clear and simple. Name_Employer1_Payslip

    3. Payslips - I did 1 pdf file per employer. 1 employer, 1 document ng lahat ng payslip. In my case, I claimed for 1 year Australian experience for 5 points, lahat ng payslip ko from day 1 til current sinend ko. Di ko sinunod yung 1 payslip per quarter (kasi konti lng din nmn). Per fortnight kasi payslip sa employer ko.

    4. Submit as many proof as you can to prove employment. Although di ako nksubmit nung ITR ko in Aus, nsa payslip nmn nklagay magkano tinax sakin.

    5. Submit forms like Form 80 kahit di pa hiningi. Form 80/applicant. I didnt submit form 1221 though but di hiningi.

    6. Dont delay submission of requirements. Some would say ok pa mag submit in 4 weeks, which can be true sometimes. I submitted all my docs in 1 week. Direct grant in 35 days.

    7. Be honest sa application.

    8. Make yourself busy while waiting. Ako nagkandarapa ng trabaho while waiting kasi full work rights na ako as i was on bridging visa A already.

    9. Never cease praying. Ask and you shall receive.

    See you in Aus forumers. Aussie aussie oi oi oi

    Hindi ko siya dineclare sa Health declaration since yun saken e 20 yrs ago na. Pero during the physical examination sa clinic, tinanong ako nung doctor kung may operation ako then sabi ko yes tapos sinulat nya dun sa paper then inask ko siya kung hindi ba magkaproblema since hindi ko siya dineclare, sabi naman nya ok lang, need nya lang daw isulat at malaman kung may scar tapos sabi nya minor lang daw yun.

    @eking Dito kasi sa pinas medyo common yung appendectomy, pero it actually doesn't fall dun sa part na "for an extended period." Yung sa "major operation" lang ang hindi ko sure pano iapproach.
    If you want, you should call clinic you intend to get the medical from, para ask mo sila if kailangan yes or no dun. Syempre kasi sila din mag assess no'n when you get there, baka ma-mark ka na sinungaling diba...better safe than sorry.

    Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

    @cheesyfiona assessment commence email means na sisimulan or sinisimulan na ang assessment mo. Sa bagong systema ng DIBP, remember na when you lodged your visa ang first status ay submitted and then Received. But Received doesnt mean na inaassess na nila. Kumbaga Received means sucessfully pumasok na sa system nila ang lodged mo ng visa. So when a case officer formally starts to commence or assess your application yun na yung start mismo ng assessment mo. Then after nyan it’s either direct grant or request information which is popularly known as CO contact.

    Goodluck sa visa assessment mo. :)
