sa form 815, may ganitong note:
Contact details in Australia:
Note: Give full residential address, including postcode and telephone
number where possible. If you do not know what your address in
Australia will be, you must give the name and address of a person in
Australia who will know how to contact you (for example, a relative,
a friend, your employer or a staff member at your proposed study
institution).
san kaya pede ilagay yung name ng tao na pede nila kontakin e address at tel no lang meron sa form nila?

may nakita kasi sa xray ko last August, then cleared na sputum and xray nung December, pinag sign na ko ng Health Undertaking nung May, then pinag medical ulit ako last week. Tapos pinapa ulit pa din nila ung sputum exam ko.
Tumawag ako sa Nationwide to ask for my xray result about Last year and last week. Yung last year, "round opacity left ptb vs pulmonary nodule" and yung last week, "slight decrease in the size of opacity in the left upper lobe.". So Obviously, gumanda ung result ko kumpara last year. Pero pinag sputum pa ulit nila ko, then intay nanaman another 3 months.
Meron po bang same ng case ko? thanks!

Yung daughter ko kasi nagfalse positive din sa ppd test. But eventually na-clear din sya last Dec 12.
August 30 pa kami nag-lodge.
Until now wala pa din CO contact if health undertaking is needed.
Pwede kaya iupload ko na yung form 815 kahit walang CO contact?
