i think pwde naman un as long as hindi mo pa na-avail dati ung baggage allowance thru IOM..
to be sure, ask IOM, and then share their reply to you..

Or you can check for yourself the various airlines and compare... Bili ka ticket nila and later on contact their customer service to ask for additional baggage allowance as a migrant who will be doing a first entry.

i suggest talk to any transport company at the airport. or maybe, better to make an arrangement with them thru email while u're still in the phils. meron silang UTE for hire, parang L300 or besta. marami silang nagkalat sa airport. oh well, sa case ng syd airport, marami.
