Tanong lang po: Kung ang expiry ng Police Clearance is May 29th 2021, tapos na-grant and visa before that, irerequire ba na lumipad sa Aus for the visa activation trip before May 29th? Thank you po sa magcontribute ng ideas.

Hiiiii, nakapaglodge na po ako ng visa on 02/10. I’m thinking to delay the medicals muna coz we’re currently here in the province and Manila/Baguio ang nearest facility for medical. Okay lang naman if i’ll just wait na hingin na lang ng CO no? May 21month old kasi akong baby plus currently pregnant din so ayoko i-risk na maexpose kami sa maraming tao. Hehehe

may nabasa ako na the reason maliit yung intended for skilled this year is to clear the massive backlogs of visa applications. If this is true then good for us waiting for the grant.

Guys, nagbasa na ba kayo ng news? Medyo di ko gets yung priority given to onshore applicants and family stream, and smaller allocation for skilled independent. Are they referring to ITAs or visa grants? Affected kaya tayo na waiting for grants na lang?
Posts: 1,204Member, Moderator

Some say affected tayo, others say no. But if they say onshore will be prioritized, mukhang pati grants from offshore affected. kasi nga di rin tayo makakamigrate agad because of travel restrictions.

Yes. Maximum they can allow is 3 months extension. So all in all 15 months ung pwede sa police clearance. But only if the delay was cause by the department.
