Kanino ka may contract at sino ang nagpapasweldo sayo? Yun ung tatayong employer mo at dun ka humingi ng COE. Medyo unusual ung description mo while " outsourcing" jobs are pretty common sa PH. Like BPOs are outsourcing pero ang employer mo yung mismong BPO sa Pinas. How is that different with yours?

Hello po! Kmusta po ? Mag tatanong lang po about sa ACS Assessment na payment evidence requirement. Nakalagay po kasi na at least 2 evidence ang need. Kaso po, meron akong work experience na parang freelance kasi sa Singapore ung company so pinapadala lang yung pera sa Country Coordinator namin tas may months na naka cash iniaabot samen (depende sa exchange rate) then may times na dinedeposit sa bank account namen ng messenger. Wala po akong ITR dun. Pano po kaya magandang gawin? thanks in advance po

Hello, Good day! Anyone here asked for an extension sa 2 months na binigay to lodge an application? after ba magbayad naeextend ung deadline? Kasi close ung mga clinic for medical dahil sa lockdown. Thank you.

After mo bayad, pwde ka na maglodge ng visa. Pwde mo unahin ang ibang docs to
Upload na meron ka. Mas maganda nga na hindi mo muna gawin ang medicals pra di sya madali ma expire ( 1 year)... yan ang recommended ngayon kasi matagal ang processing time..

Mas ok din na in the later part mo gawin si NBI kasama Si medicals kasi sila yung na eexpire. Check mo processing times para may idea ka how many mos ang visa grants, range yan..

Hi po! Sana po may makasagot. Kapag ba nagpalit ako ng state sa EOI mababago din yung lodge date ko sa 189? Gusto ko sana magpalit ng state for 190/491 pero nagaalangan ako kasi mababago na naman yung lodge date ko. Salamat po!

Hi, I'm based here in Sydney and working as an RN sa Aged care. Gusto ko sana mag apply sa VIC or SA as RN and may chance ako magpa-relocate sa employer ko ng work if ever. Mahihirapan po kasi ako sa NSW, atm my points are sitting at 70 + (5) ako and until now take pa rin ng take ng PTE until ma superior tapos NAATI naman sa July pa. Gusto ko lang mag plan ahead and baka may ma recommend kayo agent sakin na pwede mag assist or advice ano next move ko? Salamat po!

Maeexpire ang EOI after 2 years. Auto deleted yan sa system ng skillselect and my message kang ma receive na they removed it:
Since nagbago ang points mo, ang date of effect ng EOI mo ngayon is yung date ng pag update sa points mo.
May i know bakit ang concern mo is kelan ang expiration ng EOI mo?

Thanks for the response @lecia.
So ang sinusunod ay yung EOI date of effect(DoE), tama po ba?
Mejo concerned lang ako na maabutan ng expiration. Naisip ko, if date of creation ang basis ng expiration, then is it better na magcreate na lang ako ng bago now? to spare me another 2 years in the queue (given na feb 2020 lang naman ako nagupdate ng points).
Pero kung DOE ang basis, then mejo panatag na ako. Hehehe

Ang aim is mainvite kgad and to have max points as possible pra din mabilis mainvite. Check mo mabuti saan applicable yung occupation mo, 189 visa ba or 190 ( check each state) and 491.. your choice kung saan ka mag submit ng EOI or pwde din multiple EOI then withdraw mo na lang yung iba pag may ITA na.. All the best!!!
