Yes. Yun lang part ng employment mo. Hindi kasama ang gaps. So short ka pa ng 2wks based sa sinabi mo para mag 8yrs.
DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

Hi, which is better?
a) to submit one EOI and choose visa 189, 190 (any state), and 491 (any state) or
b) submit one EOI for 189, another EOI for 190 (specific state), and another EOI for 491 (specific state) using one email address?
Thanks po.

one EOI lang.
190/ 491 need sa specific state mag apply - so i don't see why you need various EOI?

Guys pa help naman, nagsumbit ako ng 189 last July. Then today nakatanggap ako ng email ngrerequest ng AFP National check at Evidence of employment. Tama naman yung sinumbit ko na AFP Police check hindi lang ako sure bat ngrerequest pa sila nireupload ko na lang. Tapos ung sa employment naman yung certificate of service/employment naman ung sinubmit ko nandun naman na lahat ng details. Need pa ba ng iba? Salamat.

I think you also need to provide other proof of employment like payslips, salary certs, recommendation letters and reference letters from employer...

Offshore won’t be prioritised for this financial year so it’s not expected any state will be open for to sponsor offshore applications

Goodmorning Question lang po sa mga naka experience lalo ng NSW state sponsorship. Nag ffill out pa lang po ako ng application form, regarding po sa Overseas work experience,
Nakalagay po kasi na "Mandatory sections and documents are marked with an asterix (*)." ang question ko lang po, hindi po ba uubra kung employment references lang ang isend ko and payment evidence? mandatory po ba ung bank statements / contracts? Kasi po may work ako na way back 2012 and hindi ko na po mareretrieve ung bank statements nun dhil ung bank is provided ng employer. Thank you in advance po.

Hi
I recently gave birth last February 21. Hindi ko pa na-update sa Immiaccount ko yung change in circumtance na nakapanganak na ako. Upon checking my email kanina lang, nakainitial assessment na po yung application ko and they are requesting for our medicals na (me, husband, and my first born).
Okay lang po ba magpamedical na kami maunang tatlo and after ko makuha ang birth registration ng second child ko? Then tsaka ko mag-update ng 1022 pero i’ll inform nalang na i gave birth already?

Best to do medical exam at the same time so same yung validity date. Medical and police clearances are time sensitive as they are only valid for 12 months so this needs to be factored in when deciding when to do it.

Thanks for the reply maam. However, the immigration only gave us 28 days to give them the additional requirements and medicals. If I wait for my baby’s PSA and passport, lalampas na po kami.

You will need to advice them if the situation. You are given 28 days to reply to s56 letter. It doesn’t necessarily mean you need to provide the documents they are asking you. I don’t know the whole case but usually when a client of ours gets pregnant whilst visa application is in the process, we notify the case officer. The visa application is put on hold until the applicant gives birth and has added the child in the application. Soon after, the case officer will request for police clearance and medical exam for all applicants including the baby.
You need to add your baby in the application first before you do your medical. They will definitely wait. If you do medical now without the baby, they may end up deciding on your application for just the three of you. That means another visa application for the baby, another long wait for you. We’ve done this many times with previous clients and it’s not always the case when clients can provide medical/police clearance within the 28day period. You just need to respond within that timeframe and by notifying them of your situation. This will suffice. Hope that helps.

Follow-up question po maam. I already inform the CO re my newborn. Do we have to wait for the COs reply to add my baby and okay lang ba mag lapse yung 28days basta nainform naman po sila? Thank you

Difficult for me to be specific on the answer as I don’t exactly know what was included in the reply you provided. Basically, once we notify the change of circumstance, we don’t expect the case officer to reply as they don’t usually do but once we have provided documents for the baby, soon after we’ll get the request for health and police clearance. Hope that helps.

I informed them about my newborn po and requested also for an extension sa pagsubmit ng medical exam para makasabay na namin si baby. Ang worry ko lang is kung hindi kami magpamedical within the period na binigay baka marefuse ang visa namin. Or kung magpamedical naman kami, then maapprove, hindi pa nasasama si baby sa app.

Health Assessment:
Hello,
Please can anyone share kung ano po yung interpretation/implication of the below assessment?
Examinations ready for assessment – no action required
The required health examinations have been completed and submitted by the panel clinic to the department. This person's case will be processed or referred to the department's migration medical services provider, Bupa Medical Visa Services, for further assessment.
I have completed my medical assessment yesterday and above is the recent status.
Salamat!

Has anyone experienced this? Nag-add po ako ng child on my application. Nacheck na ng CO and may nakalagay sa action required na ‘Pay outstanding payment’ but pag iclick ko yun wala naman nakalagay. Pls check photo po for reference.

Hello po. Tanong ko lang po anong advisable gawin sa EOI.
2 visa (190/491) in 1 state in one account or mas ok po yung magkahiwalay ang account for 190 and 491 sa isang state?
Maraming salamat in advance po sa sasagot po sa inquiry ko
