BIG MOVE 2019

SGtoAU · March 2019

@BARTMANGK sa sunshine coast din po ba kayo?

fufudoods · March 2019

@mafimushkila123 korean ang host namin. hindi naman mahirap naka-room kasi pwde naman kami tumambay sa any part ng bahay. pwede din kami magluto and since may market na malapit sa house mas nakatipid kami. yung lugar ng airbnb namin is karamihan asian so hindi kami nahirapan mag-grocery, para lang din kami nasa SG ang konti ng puti at yung mga ginagamit ko na ingredients sa SG/Pinas nabibili ko din.

Ngapala, sa mga moving to South Australia, naka receive ako ng ganitong email, around 2weeks after arrival, from the Immigration SA email:

Dear Client,

This is an email to remind you to register your arrival to South Australia.

Please log into your client portal and enter your arrival date listed under ‘Actions’.

Remember:

• You must register within 3 months of your arrival.

• Only primary applicants need to register their arrival.

• If you are only visiting Australia to validate your visa and then returning to your home country, you are not required to register the arrival now.

Mahaba pa ung email, mga helpful tips and links din. Makakareceive din kayo cguro nyan, check your emails regularly

since bumalik na ko ulit ng SG, di muna ako nag register.

@just.anotherguy, moving to Adelaide kami by April. Saang site yan ireregister?

just.anotherguy · March 2019

Dun din sa South Australia website bro..kung saan tayo nag submit ng State Sponsorship

Hendro · March 2019

@ignorms @just.anotherguy , have you updated the grant date ng visa sa state sponsorship page nila? after ko magupdate ng date ilng days lng ngkaroon ng action button duon sa page pra ilagay ang arrival date..

RejNaix11 · March 2019

Hi po! Sa mga nakapagBM na, ano po mas advisable na dating sa Sydney, weekday or weekend? Thanks.

caienri · March 2019

@RejNaix11 depende. Sa case ko, dapat weekend para nandun yung may ari ng bahay na titirhan ko. May work kc sila whole day pag weekday para lang hnd hassle.
Pede mo din consider price ng ticket.
Mode of transpo mo, taxi ba? Public transpo? Pag sunday fixed price ang pamasahe.
May susundo ba sau? Sched nila?
Etc.

just.anotherguy · March 2019

I didn't update po..Actually I haven't logged-in on my SA account for a long time na din..Naka receive na lang ako ng email

mycroft_holmes · March 2019

Hello guys share ko lang, dun sa mga mag BM this winter, sale po ang light puffer jackets (certain colors), heat tech, parkas, long sleeves / sweaters, etc. sa Uniqlo Bugis (SG).
Check niyo na lang if sale din sa outlets near you. :-h

PS. I bought my puffer jacket at 39 sgd (normal price is 99 sgd).

Megger · March 2019

@Son-of-Abraham , nung last naming punta sa Sydney nagdala kami ng external drive nakalimutan ko burahin ang laman. Doon nakalagay sa check in bag. Buti di nacheck. Sabagay ilang movies lang namn laman noon.

RejNaix11 · March 2019

@caienri Noted. Thank you po.

st0rm · March 2019

Hello po! Ask ko lang po sa mga galing ng SG. Saan po kayo nagpa-ship ng mga gamit? Medyo marami rami kasi gamit ko at mukhang di ko kaya dalhin lahat. So mas maganda ata na ipa-ship na lang. Kaso dun po sana sa hindi naman taga sa bulsa

happyme123 · March 2019

@st0rm Hi..

Kelan po kayo magmomove ng Au and what state? My family is planning to move by May. Nasearch kopo ung astro Movers. Naghahanap po sana kami kasabay sa shipping para makatipid

A ok. Nagregister na pala kami sa migration.sa, nilagay lang naming arrival details, at nag-avail kami ng "meet and greet" service nila.

mafimushkila123 · March 2019

@fufudoods ay wow, exciting! gusto ko makatry magkaron ng ibang lahing housemate, hehe. dito kasi by lahi talaga kada flat hehe. di naman ba sila mahirap kasama sa bahay? sorry ignorante

mafimushkila123 · March 2019

Hi! May magbi-BM or nakapag-BM na ba dito galing UAE? Pano nyo shinip yung mga gamit nyo galing UAE to Au?

ClmOptimist · March 2019

Hi. Pede po ba magtransfer from BPI/BDO to ANZ account? May nakapag-try na po ba dito?

Megger · March 2019

@mafimushkila , nag bigmove kami direct to Oz from UAE. Nagcanvass kami ng cargo, tapos nagdecide kami na more economical kung ibenta nalang yong appliance namin. May kalumaan nari kasi. Namili nalang kami ng gamit sa Oz, reasonable naman prices at bago pa.

KB.1083 · March 2019

Big move na rin po ako sa Apr sa sydney.

Ito po based sa experience ko po

1. Nagbook ako qantas one way nun na receive ko un grant last Sept from SG - SYD.
NOTE: pag gusto nyo po avail un un migrant offer nila need nyo po tumawag sa kanila at sila po ang magbook sa inyo. (Nabook ko muna un akin before ko nakita un migrant offer kaya d ko na avail un promo nila)

2. From sg to sydney pinagpilian ko po na cargo eh seven seas at singpost. Pinili ko un seven seas 2 tig 30 kg for 265 sgd + insurance and aus custom fee ang quute around 400 sgd total. They will give you 2 large box, bubble wrap, pentel pen and tape.

3. Open an account sa commbank. From DBS no transaction fee. Currently mas mataas ang SG dollar. If d po ako nagkakamali 1 sgd = 1.03 aud ang exchange .

4. Un mga Fall at winter clothes po sa pinas ako namili then kun may punta po sa SG na friend ko pinapasabay ko na lng po. Un enough lang para makasurvive habang wala pa po pambili hehehe. I bought mine thru online seller. Sa mga hindi picky about brand at kun bago, may mga online seller (fabshoppe888 or victoriaph) sa instragram ng mga pre loved item like Uniqlo (heattech) 5 pcs at 500 php. Thermal leggings for 200 php. Un winter coats not more than 1k php. Plus SF.

GODBLESS sa lahat po nag mag BM.

rjq.m · March 2019

@KB.1083 Hi! Good luck sa bigmove. Mas mura ba sa seven seas vs singpost?

carlosau · March 2019

Hi everyone, quick question: Can you create an Australian bank account and deposit money to it WHILE in the PH?

KB.1083 · March 2019

@rjq.m almost same lng sila ng singpost. Sa singpost 132sgd for 20 kg kasama na daw un insurance. Not sure sa custom kasama and un mga boxes d pa kasama. Un seven seas recommended ng friend ko who also moved overseas but to NZ sila ng move.

Yes. We opened an account on Commbank just recently. They have a savings account specifically for new migrants.

@ginpomelo pwede po mauna medical.

So pwede po bang magpamedical na kahit naghihintay palang ng Invite para once mainvite, agad agad makapag apply kami ng visa? Halos kumpleto na po kasi documents ko, NBI/Medical nalang yung kulang. Iniisip namin kumpletuhin na lahat ng requirements para makapag submit ng visa application agad agad right after mainvite. Thanks in advance

Birthmark · March 2019

@ginpomelo yes.. proactive approach.. kami before lodging, nagpamedical na..

same goes with attaching Form 80 and 1221.. kinumpleto na yung possible docs na hahanapin, maiwasan lang ang CO contact at ma-Direct Grant

mycroft_holmes · March 2019

@ginpomelo hello po. Butting In po. NBI pwede po kayo kumuha while waiting for invite though may possibility na mapaaga yung IED niyo from visa lodgement.

For medical po, before lodging visa YES you can do so which is ginawa ng most applicants.
Pero kung wala pa kayo ITA, check niyo po muna sa panel clinic kung i-aallow kayo mag undergo ng medical exam without ITA from DHA. Ang alam ko po hindi.

Also, to undergo medical, you need HAP ID which can be generated from ImmiAccount.
Here’s the link po
http://pinoyau.info/discussion/1483/medical/p21

Wag po kayo mag madali hehe. Mabilis lang naman results ng medical, normally after a day or so unless may findings.

Hope this helps po.
