Hindi ba one of the criteria for jobseeker eligibility notes "have lost income as a sole trader, self-employed person, casual worker or contract worker". I think the key word there is 'have lost'. So technically, dun sa mga kakarating lang who are applying for jobseeker, they did not actually lose a job kasi wala pa naman sila work here in the first place???
I might be wrong though.

Naapprove na po ako last month. They only rejected my initial application because of "lacking documents" but they never even told me what documents were lacking before rejecting it. I had to call them to clarify. I have uploaded naman the main documents, they just needed more (that were not on their initial list).
I think tama naman na ang jobseeker ay for those who recently lost their jobs. But recently they allowed new migrants to apply too. I got the idea from people in this forum din. It's a huge help.

If you have a MyGov account they also send over the "Request for Information" letter over there by default.

Malaki po ba difference? Naisip ko lang baka kasi risky, ang bilis kasi magsara ng mga border baka biglang icancel flight nyo pag biglang bawal ang transit sa nz.. mas ok sana kung straight flight nalang makuha nyo..

May nakapagbook po ba dito ng Singapore Airlines? Based sa flightaware parang tuloy tuloy ung flights nila from SG to Melbourne. Dun kasi dapat ung BM namin para may chance ma-waive ung quarantine fee since last year pa ung planned BM talaga dapat namin tapos nacancel lang ung flights.
Upon trying to book kasi on their website, mukhang not available na ung flights (puno?? or not published lang talaga). Thanks.

You may call them to ask what documents. Depende kasi sya sa officer na nag handle. Sa case ko, ang hiningi nila ay last 3 months na bank statement ng partner ko. Linked na yung centrelink accounts namin nung time na ito at uploaded lahat ng docs sa application nya. Pero nireupload ko sya sa application ko.

In my opinion, masyadong mahal at risky and pagpapa-book sa PAL since madalas daw sila mag cancel ng flight. Especially this month, na uso na naman ang lockdown 😕 pero last time I checked, between 150-200k ang one way ticket 😭😭
Btw, naka kuha na po ba kayo ng travel exemption?
