Wala po bearing yan sir. If more than 3 years ka na nag dridrive once nakapasa ka na sa online at practical test straight to full license ka. Hindi po kelangan ng LTO certificate yung mismong PH drivers license lang po ang kelangan.

Yes, our family - but my advice, attend PDOS first. We were held at the PH immigration counter for several minutes before the officer, after much consulting with his superior, allowed us to exit due to humanitarian grounds.

In my experience, nag rely lang sila dun sa form na finifillupan mo. Dun mo ilalagay anong year ka unang nagka license. Paano nila iveverify? that I don't know.

Yes napa convert ko yung PH license ko to SG license then full AU license dito sa SA.
