  @tmasuncion Immitracker contains a part lang po ng total immigration cases. But at least it can give you an insight how fast/slow people in your own job code are receiving invites. You can further compare the EOI date of effect vs Invitation date sa mga existing entries sa immitracker. >-

  @vannsia de facto partner means sometime in their lives they’ve lived together as partners, shared a life and a home. If bf/gf lang na hiwalay ng tirahan, that doesn’t count na de facto so no need to declare

  Tips sa De Facto
  
  Strong Evidence ang Financial Aspects.
  
  joint insurance
  joint bank account
  joint property
  
  Also, take note hindi kami live in dahil OFW ako, and mainly due to religion.
  
  pero paramihan lang ng evidence.
  
  dapat maaddress din each.
  
  Social Aspects
  Nature of Relationship
  Long Term Commitment
  
  
  Paki check po ang full requirements/aspectsfor partner visa,.sa section na proof of relationship.
  
  
  pag naaddress ninyo lahat yan, more chances na DG kayo at di na maCO contact
  
  Hope this helps.

  Nagpa assess ako ng previous work experience ko @hopeful_Z . Working din ako ngayon. Nag apply kc ako ulit while waiting for the invitation. I got hired post anmac na. Kaya medyo confused ako kc sabi ng agency ko di na daw kailangan idaan sa anmac ung current job ko. Eoi na raw agad. Kaya nagtatanong tanong muna ako bago ko iupdate EOI ko. Mahrap na ma wrong move.
