@mariamorris
nagweweird tlga e-visa page for skill select. for the longest time may technical problems sila. in my case naman, i have uploaded all the needed documents pero instead of saying "received" eh either required or recommended parin. so i don't really check my evisa page, i just wait for an email from my CO. even when my CO said he is satisfied na with all the submitted docs, ganun pa rin status ko sa evisa page.

sapagkat ang pangarap ay naging katotohonan na! Na-approved din sa wakas!
Anyway, I think ako na lang yata ang napag-iwanan sa biyahe. February pa po ako naglodge (GSM 175) and this week lang na approve. Akala ko sasapit ang pasko na wala pang outcome yung visa since sobrang tagal ko na naghihintay. Yun nga lang I only have 5 months for my initial entry.
I know this is easier said than done, but patience lang talaga, lalo na po sa mga post July 2012 applicants na naghihintay pa rin ng meds. Marami pa rin yata natengga na 175 at 176 applications. Iniisip ko na lang na ipon ipon muna habang naghihintay though sometimes nakaka praning pa rin.
