Good morning!
Na-CO contact kami just this morning. Need lang to repeat our daughter's medical exam. Graded B kasi yung result niya before due to positive igra kahit normal xray kaya siguro gusto ipaulit. Gawin na namin sa Sat. Happy na rin kasi alam na namin na pinoprocess na papers
Pero baka by January na siguro ang expected grant kasi next week vacation na mga offices sa AU.

Yes aware naman po. Hoping na makapasa sa screening ng mga CO but hindi kaya need siguro ipaulit. 10yo siya that time. Now 11yo na, hindi na need ng TB screening. Physical exam, urinalysis and xray na lang.

Congrats sa lahat ng new grantees!
Sa mga naghihintay pa rin like me, what do you guys think about the change in global processing times sa DHA website?
P.S.
Checked my IMMI account, 12-20 months pa rin. Maybe a glitch?

I believe it'll change, @markier87. Mukhang they are working on clearing the backlog now. If ma-clear na ang March, it'll be a smooth ride for them to approve the next batch kasi onti na lang din yung nainvite after March 2019. Remember, those were the days nagstart na tayong magpuyat para mag-abang ng ITA hehe
Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

hi guys, na-CO contact po kami ng wife ko for police clearance (Thailand and New Zealand), when we lodged our visa last March, wala pa kami 12 months in both countries, so hindi nirequire samin ng agency, unfornately hinanap samin ngayon ng CO.. ang problem is ang daming holidays ng NZ and nasa pinas po ako right now and cannot apply for Thai Police Clearance righ away.
Heads up lang po, best practice is just upload important documents kahit di pa required.
