In terms of medical, correct me if I'm wrong but in my interpretation pede ka naman magpamedical kahit saan basta accredited or nandun sa list ng clinics nila kc sila pa rin ang magpapadala directly ng result sa DIAC...just my opinion po...
Guys what do you think?

You are in Dubai when you applied for the visa, working visa or not, you are still in Dubai when you applied and when your application is in process. Therefore, I think it is proper to do the medical examination in the country where you are in right now. A sudden change in the pattern of events while greatly affect the outcome of your application.
In my case, all the requirements will be processed and will be obtained here in Libya, as much as I wanted to do it in the Philippines, my migration lawyer does not approve of the idea.

Maybe you can contact her, and ask for information on processing clearance from regional offices.
Or contact directly their regional office.

Send your documents to Ms Julie Macalit; she is a very nice lady naman. Although I had a bad experience with my NBI Clearance as it took almost a month before the hard copy arrived. But I do believe minalas lang talaga ako dun. Some people I know from this forum were able to get their NBI Clearance naman within 3wks.

both of our jobs are included sa CSOL;
misis - architectural drafter (almost 5yrs; electrical, struct & architectural); BS Archi grad; 30yrsold, got a lot of certs
kamote1013 - ICT Support Technician (almost 5yrs); diploma holder; got some IT certs
1. on your opinion sino samin ang dapat mag-apply ng visa? and what type of visa we can apply?
2. for IELTS requirements, GT or AC po ba ang dapat i-take ni misis? alm ko po kasi IELTS GT ang para sa mga ICT.
3. tama po ba na hindi kailangan ng IELTS results pag nagpa-assess sa VETASSESS?
4. paki-check naman kung tama yung process na gagawin namin
- skill assessment
- IELTS
- pag positive lahat gagawa na kami ng account sa SKILLSELECT for EOI? or pwedeng gumawa ng account sa SKILLSELECT kahit hndi pa kami tapos sa first two steps?
pasensya na kung mahaba at TIA sa mga sasagot.

eto po ang opinion ko:
- mas mataas ang education qualification points ni misis.. Degree (15pts) vs Diploma (10pts) , pero sa total points depende pa rin sa other factors like age, and IELTS
- if you have the means, pwede nmn po kayo both magpa-assess, so you can claim extra 5pts for Partner skills
- ielts po is general training, and yes its not required for VETASSES and ACS
- tama po ang process for you; Skills assessment > IELTS > EOI
- if your skills are in CSOL sched 2 you need to apply for State Sponsorship, isusubmit nyo lang po ang skills assessment result and ielts sa specific state and your EOI reference number. You need to select kung saang state in-demand ang skills nyo (each state has its own list, please check their website).. SS also has additional 5 points..
EOI requires atleast 60pts in total.. I suggest you simulate different scenarios sa inyong dalawa..
Refer to this thread for the EOI Points:
