to prove functional English pwede daw “certificate of English as medium of instruction” sa UP. Pero sa guidelines dapat all subjects in english. Yung naka lagay sa certificate “English is generally used as medium of instruction”.
Do you think ok na yun? Or better take ielts/ pte kaysa macharge nung mahal na “second installment fee” na 4890 AUD if hindi maprove fuctional english. Or pwede kaya biglang mag PTE kung sakali?

bale ang gagawin ko na lang na additional proof ay Email Converstion w/ my prev. employers na di sila mkkpagprovide for their owns reasons. Hindi din naman ppwede ang bank statement na hindi indicated ang name in employer.
Ang next Q's na lang eh after lodging ng Visa eh kung specifically no ITR and/or Payslip ay pwedeng maging grounds for Visa refusal, na parang hindi naman siguro?

may possibility unless hindi magbabago ang points mo kahit hindi iconsider ung experiences na clinaim mo.
you can check other people especially yung may mga agents, bakit hindi pinapaclaim ni agent ang work experience na walang payslip/itr, dahil ayaw nilang mapahamak ang clients nila sa visa aplication.

sa current situation nagyon, mas mahigpit na mga CO sa requirements. pag walng itr/payslip, malaki chances na CO will ask for "further proof of employment".
contact your previous companies, mag request ka ng payslip/ITR copy sakanila. kaya nila yun iprovide as long as legal silang nag rereport sa BIR.

agree ako jan Sir hehehehe, depende kasi kay CO, may nabasa din akong lumusut pero may hindi din, wala kasing reference letter.
ang absent ko simula nung asikasuhin ko ang Au goals ko ay 46 days since January this year, kaya may warning na hehehe.

make time sir. kung worth it naman yung pag-absent at pag-asikaso ng documents mo, go for it. it all depends kung priority mo bang magpunta ng AU o hindi.
