    kapag overwhelmed ka na, I think this video of Australia truly greatly helps. Parang na teary eyed pako ng very very light upon realizing the magnitude of the blessings we have received to live in this country... so kahit anong pagsubok pa yan, laban lang tayo! :)

    @ali0522 Medyo tricky ang wording the batas sa exemption:

    https://tieza.gov.ph/travel-tax/travel-tax-exemption/
    Who may be exempted from paying the Travel Tax?
    The following Filipino citizens are exempted from the payment of travel tax pursuant to Sec. 2 of PD 1183, as amended:

    • Overseas Filipino workers
    • Filipino permanent residents abroad whose stay in the Philippines is less than one year
    • Infants (2 years and below)

    Since nasa Pinas ka pa naman po, I suggest you call or email Tieza

    Based sa PDOS seminar, hanggat hindi pa tayo nakakapasok sa Australia hindi pa activated ang pagiging Permanent Resident natin. Ngayon tayo ay Emigrant pa lang, after initial entry, doon pa lang maactivate ang ating Permanent Residency or matatawag na Immigrant ng Australia. Hanggat hindi pa activated Permanent Residency obligado pa rin tayo magbayad ng travel tax, pero once activated na meaning sa pangalawang pasok natin sa AU exempted na tayo sa travel tax.

    If malapit po kayo sa Ortigas area Sa Iremit po sa may discovery suites.

    That's what I did. So ibibigay niyo lang yung AU bank account details niyo then yung peso cash niyo is sila mag dedeposit here. Conversion ng peso to aud is kung ano ung current rate nung araw na nag pa money transfer kayo. Ang charge lang nila is $10 Aud then max 9k aud a week ata ang pde itransfer.

    Kakabalik ko lang galing pinas.
    Exempted na sa travel tax pero kelangan pa rin pumila sa booth para bigyan ng certificate of exemption na ipre present nmn pag check in. That is, IF LESS THAN A YEAR ang stay sa Pinas bago bumalik. They just asked for a copy ng visa grant.
    Eh dahil hindi ko alam, wala akong dalang print out, pinakita ko n lng yung soft copy from my phone at sila na nag print. Nasabihan lang ako na mag privide next time. πŸ˜…

    @imau auto po yung ftb pagfamily kayo nagmigrate you can claim agad pagkaregister mo sa centrelink. Medicare ay auto din pag PR ka, kumukuha ng private insurance to avoid extra tax, but it's optional.
