    Guys got our grants today around 9 am.. Very grateful to all the people who shared all their experiences and learnings that guided me from day 1 to visa grant.
    Im actually expecting another CO contact since i only submitted a highschool CEMI of my wife . It was the longest 9 months of my lihe. Hahaha ..God is really good. Sa mga waiting pa ng grant ,kapit lng!.. Mindset ko lng is, mataas ang percentage ng nabibigyan ng grant compared sa denied. So if i just pray hard and have a positive mindset, i would eventually get the result that i wanted.. all the best to all of us! thanks guys!

    Hi po. Since madami na nag sesend sakin ng private message about how did i get my direct grant in a short span of time. Naisip ko to share it here ang ginawa ko at sana maka tulong. Based lang to sa experience ko as single applicant na binase ko lang din sa advice ng friend ko na na direct grant din but with dependents and of course mga natutunan ko dito sa pinoy au as silent reader.

    I self lodged mine on 8 August 2018 onshore complete organized certified documents.
    Direct grant 6 October 2018

    Aside sa mga common na documents (certified copies),
    Sinali ko po ang payslip(bank transfer since yan lang meron ako) and coe ng unclaimed work experience ko.

    Claimed work experience naman: coe, reference letter, contract, payslip, itr.

    Lahat ng police check

    Medical

    Form 80 only.

    Lahat ng passport pages na with travel stamps and visa. (Not certified copies) kasi inindicate ko lahat ng travels ko sa form 80.

    At organized my file by using this file name format. SURNAME(space)Name_documemtname.pdf

    Example DELACRUZ Juan_RecentPassport.pdf

    And i took pte, make sure na pearson has sent your pte score to DHA. Usually after the exam or while booking you’ll click na send score report. Then you should receive an email to notify that score is sent already. Pero sometimes wala ito, so you need to send it manually. May mga cases na na co contact just because of this.

    At i did feedback once about one of my police check is about to expire (kahit malayo pa naman tlga ma expire haha) gusto ko lang magpapansin. I dont know if naka tulong.

    Yan po. At most especially, dasal ng marami. Rosary month ngayon, oh kahit ibang month. Pray the rosary. And surrender everything to Him and Mama Mary. It will appease anxiety and gives you hope and positivity. Sure yan. Good luck sa lahat. God bless and see you here Aus.

    Lastly, i don’t think na may difference ang onshore at offshore. Di ako sure. May kasabayan ako sa immitracker. Same date kami nag lodge at grant pero offshore siya. Complete documents din.

    @jonigram sir onshore ka pala. By IED meaning initial entry date. Pero may IED pa rin nga ba kahit onshore? :)

    Kasi you mentioned na nagfeedback ka about expiring police check. Usually yun yung basis ng IED, kaya i wonder if napaaga ba :)

    @Grifter, Through seek.com.au nakahanap ng employer. Create Skype AU contact number which is needed if you are outside AU pa. It cost around US$6/month. The AU employer interviewed me via Skype. I hope it helps po.
