Hi everyone,

I just renewed my passport. I already had it changed to my married name. Tentative release is on October 12-15. Pero di ko pa po pinacancel yung old passport ko under my maiden name. Hawak ko pa. Icacancel lang nila pagclaim ng new passport.

All my docs are okay naman na po, ready na.

If you were on my feet, maglodge na ba ako ngayon ng visa and inform na lang DHA sa change of circumstance pagdating ng bagong passport. Or, wait ko na lang yung bagong passport? Tho medyo matagal pa naman deadline ko sa November 11 pa po.

I need your insights po.

Thank you

Ask ko lang po, kasi magpaparenew ako sa oct9, kanino nyo po nirequest na wag muna ipacancel yung old passport? Kasi im planning to do the same, na wag ipacancel muna si old passport.

Hi, sinabi ko lang po dun sa nag-pprocess ng mga documents. Tinanong ko kasi kung mga delay sa releasing ng passports. She suggested na pwede naman huwag muna icancel yung old passport. Pag i-claim na lang yung bago tsaka nila icancel.

Hanggat di mo natatanggap yung new passport di nila sisirain/cancel yung passport mo ngayun. So you can use it. Sa harap mo kasi nila sisirain(not totally sira. Punch lang ng holes ung passport) pag nag agree kana sa new passport mo after mo icheck lahat ng details.

From what I can remember parang dati pinupunch nila agad. Need kopo ba irequest sa kanila yun? Na wag muna ipunch?

Yup ipapunch nila un. Automatic na pag na issue yung bagong passport sayo, need nila ipunch ung passport sa harap mo. Hindi kasi pwedeng dalawang passport ang valid at a time.

Kaso po, i opted for passport delivery. May idea po ba kayo if ippunch nila before pa dumating sayo ung bago?

Yes punch lang nila yung front and back. Kung pagpapacourier ka po ng passport, hindi sila papayag na hindi icancel yung current passport mo. Kukuhanin na nila sayo on the day of application.

Kaya ang ginawa ko, ako po mismo kukuha ng passport ko pag irelease na, then tsaka lang nila macacancel.

Dito po ako sa province ngayon. Kanina siguro mga 5 lang kaming applicants including my

Mas maganda ito kasi para nasau patinyung passport mo. Mahirap pag kinuha ung old passport, bukod sa wala kang memorabilia hehhe panu kung need mo siya in the future.

Isa pa yon sa mga dilemma ko kasi may mga visa akong nakadikit doon sa old passport ko po

Okay lang po yon, ibibigay pa rin po nila yung passport niyo. Ako rin may valid US and Japan visa pa po ako sa current passport ko.

Doble ingat na lang po pagpunta ng mall

Any idea po how to cancel eoi na na-invite?

I made multiple eois po kasi, yung isang eoi ko solo 189 then the other 1 189 and 190. Pareho po nainvite for 189. I think kailangan po yata icancel yung isa.

mayhuiso · September 2020

WOOOOOW! Parehong may ITAs. Pinagpala ka!

Hi. Ask ko lang for fellow nurses who submitted EOI or those who know din po. Dun sa DOES THE CLIENT MEET australian stidy reqt for skilled migration point test, yes or no po ang inanswer nyo? I asked kasi nagbridging tayo di ba. Thankyou sa maganswer!

No, bridging program does not qualify for additional points for Australian study requirement.

https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/temporary-graduate-485/australian-study-requirement
to meet the Australian study requirement you must have completed either:

a single eligible qualification that requires at least 2 academic years study, or

more than 1 qualification that results in a total of at least 2 academic years study resulting in an eligible qualification.

You must have completed your study in Australia, in a total of no less than 16 calendar months, while you held a visa authorising you to study

Thankyou dear. ☺️

Hi everyone! Hope all has been doing well. My husband and I are looking into bumping up our current points through partner skills assessment. In line, I was hoping to ask if there's anyone here who have tried applying for any suitable migration skill assessment for "Bank Credit Risk Analyst" experience? We are currently exploring the occupation list and we are drawn into the "General Accountant" 221111 ANZCODE. But we are not sure if this is indeed suitable for his experience or there are other more occupations we haven't explored yet. He has 4 year bachelor degree (Management Economics) in a recognized University and a 2 year MBA from the same university.

Thanks in advance for any insight, tip or advice you can share to us!

That’s correct. Both police and medical clearances have 12 months validly as far as immigration is concern. We always advice clients to wait until case officer asks for them or risk re-doing the clearances again.

if accessible sayu ang pagkuha ng medicals, i would suggest na kuha na as early as possible,
as "TAKING CHANCES", posible na buksan ng case officer ang application mo earlier than expected.
at kapag complete na ang documents mo, they may give a decision earlier.. like what happen to me and others before..

so is up to you to decide.. getting NBI may not be that easy if nasa SG ka... pero malay mo u maybe lucky. sa unang bukas ng CO s app mo, visa granted agad since complete docs kana.
All the best

That’s correct, it is a possibility. Do bear in mind though that the situation right now with regards to pandemic. Things are a lot slower and uncertain. Also, the entry date will be based around the expiry of the medical and police clearances (whichever expires first) it may leave one with no time to prepare for the big move. These are things to factor in when deciding on when to do those clearances. @Boylabo it seems that you have not sorted your skills assessment yet (if I understand correctly) so would advise that if you decide to do these clearances, do this before you lodge your visa application, not right now as definitely these documents will expire prior to visa grant and you would have to re-do them and spend money again. Also, you would need to have your HAP ID for the medical. I think rather than putting your time and energy on your clearances now, best to focus on your skills assessment as you would need to get this right before you can even process further into your visa journey. All the best.

i agree on this

Roseguiang0508 · September 2020

Hello po, ask ko lng with regards sa pagfill up po ng eoi, pwede po ba abbreviation ng school/hospital ang ilagay as it is more than po sa limit ng words na allowed iencode. And makakaapekto po ba sa chance na mainvite if magkaiba po ang anzsco code given by anmac sa field po ng current work ko sa Australia. Critical care and emergency po ang anzsco code ng experience ko sa pinas but currently working po ako as casual sa rehab and aged care. Thank you

good morning po! correct me if I am wrong, meron na po kayo assessment from an assessing authority? nagbayad na po kayo para dun correct? beter continue with that one I guess, kasi po kung malayo yung current "job role" nyo dun sa inassess ni anmac, better not claim points for the current job role para di na lang din po kayo malito... kung suitable naman po yung assessment ni anmac, pwede na po kayo file ng EOI and quote the anmac assessment as your proof for claiming points.

all the best po!

Roseguiang0508 · September 2020

Yes po meron n po ako LOD from anmac. Thank you so much. Hopefully po mainvite po, I applied for 189/190

Clarify ko lang po, ilang EOI po ba ang pwede? My husband's occupation is listed under Visa subclass 190, and Visa 491. Both requires state nomination. 190 is PR visa, 491 temporary visa with PR pathway.
Do we lodge a separate EOI for each?
Then, If under 491 po, if states opened up, and pwedeng mag apply na, do we use 1 EOI lang po ba, or separate EOIs for each state? Which one would be benficial for us po n mag 45 na po sa March 2021.

Thank you in advance for those who can shed light on this. Thank you very much.

hi po good morning, for me, it is still ok to make separate EOI's para ma-track nyo separately yung mga EOI for each state (and for each visa as well), you can use just one email address for all the EOI para isa lang ma-nonotify kung magkaroon man ng ITA.

all the best po!

IMO, depende po yan sa current situation/needs ng Australia. May nabasa ako before mas priority ang mga onshore applicants lalo nung kasagsagan ng covid. Pero sa current trend ngayon, marami na rin naiinvite na offshore.
