Same concern here po BM June din.. sana po may mga inputs tayo ma receive.

Ako rin concern ko yan. We're not planning the big move this year, initial entry lang muna sana balak namin. Kaso, sa nangyayari ngayon parang delikado muna magplano ng initial entry. Until February 1, 2021 pa naman pwede mag IED. Pero sana di na lumala ang covid issue para safe tayo mag in and out of Philippines and Australia..

me (qatar) and my wife & son (Ph) is also planning to BM this april or may. Good thing we havent booked tickets. current situation - change of plans. I will be the one going to AU muna directly from Qatar. So incase there would be quarantines ako lang. hirap pag may bata. and try to settle down sa au - find job and then balikan ko sila sa pinas pag oks na lahat or nag minimize na si corona and pag oks na mga pag travel. sana wag na masyado lumala. Btw, til Nov pa kami pwede pumasok.

im planning to go on May since i need to serve 30days once i resigned.... sana wala ng ibang issue.
my only concern is when we apply for job since isolated tayo for 14 days meaning we cannot go for any interview in case someone calls us....

yeah, most likely ganyan nga siguro mangyayari... hopefully ok pa din job application.
will bring food as well, originally ayaw ko magadala kasi hassle sa immigration but since there is this virus... will bring nalang para atleast me extra foods hehehe.
God Bless to all of us, praying that all will be alright soon. cheers!

May self quarantine na 14 days sa lahat ng arrivals. Check your accommodation arrangements lalo na kung makikitira lang kayo sa di relatives kasi baka ayaw nila na makasama kayo sa bahay. Di kayo makakalabas kahit bumili lang ng essential supplies so better na may tutulong sa inyo para sa makabili nito. Sa mga IE pa lang bring cash kasi di rin kayo makakapunta sa bank para maasikaso identity verification nyo.

May fine kapag nahuling hindi sumunod sa self-isolation. So magiging very limited talaga ang movement during the first 14 days pagkarating dito.

also nag grocery ako kaninang umaga, nagulat ako at panic buying ang mga aussie now dito sa Perth...and wala daw halos katao-tao sa Perth CBD considering na monday pa naman ngayon...

if u can wait til June or until ma-resolve tong COVID e much better...
May ibang mine site na rin ang naka lockdown due to COVID at ibang companies naman e parang work from home na rin ung iba til maresolve ito...kaya kung wala pa job na naghihintay sayo dito at magaapply apply pa lang e much better na hold muna si BM niyo....my two cents

nice to know end of financial year pala is June/July. actually ill be there around 1st week ng May or end of April depends on the ticket that i can find.
if when naman huhupa ang covid mukhang hindi pa soon, sabi sabi it will take a year to 18months to come up with a conclusive vaccine.
thanks for the reply boss!

to those who need to do Initial entry soon, much better mag request kayo to postpone the date.
for skilled immigrants, please send your request immediately thru this email sila ang naka assign sa SI subclasses.
[email protected]
mas okay na pahupain muna ang Covid bago pumunta dito for the following points:
in short makalusot ka man, mahihirapan ka pa din dito, baka maubos baon mo nyan...
just stay where you are at the moment and wait when things are back to normal.
this is an evolving phenomena, soon all will be better.

@odwight ang concern lang pag dinelay pa ang BM especially sa 489 e mababawasan ang 4yrs visa mo. Ma-extend din kaya?

yun nga din yung isang factor na we need to consider, kasi most likely mababawasan yung yrs natin.
I'm not sure whether we can ask for extension or possible ba to.
hopefully meron makasagot dito? anyone? hehehe =P
