icebreaker1928 · February 2013

@peach17 oo naman, kahit ano moral, emotional, spiritual etc... wag lang financial hahaha...

peach17 · February 2013

hihihi cge po, prayers na lang po @icebreaker1928.
na sana approved ang documents na pinasa namin, maging approved din ang medicals namin, at magrant kami ng visa soon.

matanong ko lang po, san po ba mas okay magpa medical?
St Lukes or NHS?
Saan kaya mas madami nagpapamedical?

jayjee09 · February 2013

@peach will pray for you too peach! and good luckby the way, I went to St Lukes for my medical. everything went well. Is there anything else pending documents or leg work for your visa application?

katlin924 · February 2013

@katlin924 hi, ano po na link? ang nasa email lang na sen dnila is yung australian embassy website dito sa philippines. thank you.

Same! Kung sana mo ni-upload ung mga requirements ng visa, dun mo din i-upload ung sa NBI tsaka yung receipt ng medicals at iba pang hinihingi ni CO.

thank you so much @jayjee09

O:-)

meron pa kami pending document, inaantay pa namin yung bank statement.

then medical and nbi na.. pero gagawin pa lang namin yan on our 6th week of visa lodgement.

kelan ka po nagpamedical sa St. Lukes? No need na po to call their clinic to set an appointment? tama po ba?

if i may ask din po, when ka po nag lodge ng visa?

Hi everyone, I just want to check if you have any feedback on Team 33 GSM, how is she as a CO? mahigpit po kaya?

I hope there is someone here who can share experience.

Thanks

katlin924 · February 2013

yup! ni-upload ko lang as proof na nagpa-medical na ko just incase di pa nila nakuha yung results from the clinic.

Okim · February 2013

We're on the same team @baronann..initial ng CO ko LR..so far mabilis naman sumagot sa mga queries ko and nagrequest lang to resend documents which I've already uploaded cia e-visa..although I still have 1 pending doc to send, not sure kung mabilis mag-approve.
Anyone else who are on the same boat?

icebreaker1928 · February 2013

@baronann team 33? ano visa type po kayo? the first time I heard of this team, usually team 6 or 7 e

multitasking · February 2013

@Hunter_08 _ dre advice ko lang... for your ACS assesment.. be careful on what job code that you will choose.. pls check yung current ANZCO list... kasi as far as i know.. kung tester ang job code mo.. you cannot apply for independent migrant visa...your option is to apply for a state sponsor visa where "tester" is included in the job code they are accepting.. ex. Victoria..

Hunter_08 · February 2013

@multitasking yup balak ko nga mag SS pero napapaisip lng ksi ako ksi yng job title ko sa first company ko is Software Engineer pero Job description nya is for Test Analyst so ano po advise nyo ilagay ko na job code is for tester?

yup nag check na ko ng mga state kng san need nila ng tester parang victoria,Queensland at TAS lng meron for now...

Thanks dre..

slamania102 · February 2013

hayz still no CO

. na upload ko na lahat ng docs including PCC and health strategies confirmed that my medicals has been finalized last Jan 24. Diac timeline for priority 4 is 7 weeks after lodgment. If AU holidays is not counted then 5th week palang. I called Diac and was told to call back after 7-8th week age ng application ko. trabaho mode muna para bawas inip

multitasking · February 2013

@Hunter_08 .. . mas tinitignan ng ACS yung job description rather than job title... so you need to make sure na tugma yung job description mo doon sa job code.. regarding to apply as a tester and just proceed with SS.. ok din naman yan.. ang risk lang dyan ay amount of job oppty sa state na pupuntahan mo... ma research ka na lang kung anong state ang mas malaki ang chance mo to find a job... parang alam ko kung saang company ka galing..

icebreaker1928 · February 2013

@Hunter_08 take note also na hindi laging bukas ang skill sa isang state, once na fillup na nila ang quota nila, magsasarado na ang sponsorhip nila dun but it will re-open again maybe nxt yr or maybe never... kung kelan nila iopen ulit ang skill ay nasa discretion nila.

Hunter_08 · February 2013

@multitasking thanks..hahah..may idea ka pre kng saan akong nagwork? ksi parang yun lng nman ata yng company n isa lng yng job title pero iba2 yng role...wahhaahha. yup ok din nman mag SS kya need ko na maasikaso ng mabilis hanggat may slot pa...

@icebreaker1928 yup tama yun ang risk pag SS ksi pag nag sara na d alam kng kelan mag bukas ulit...hopefully pag mag apply na ko may slot pa kong makita...nag search ako kahapon at nakita ko meron sa Victoria,Queensland at tasmania.

hi everyone, hi @lock_code2004,

nag mamatter po ba ang claimed points sa bilis or tagal ng pag allocate ng CO?

TasBurrfoot · February 2013

hi everyone, hi @lock_code2004,

@peach17 - allocation of CO, I don't think so...

However it matters if you are expecting to get an invite; 65pts up, may invite agad sa next round. 60pts naman, hintay hintay muna.

lock_code2004 · February 2013

hi everyone, hi @lock_code2004,

If you are talking just on the same batch/round of invitation.. I dont think it will matter..
Sabay sabay kayo na invite nung Jan 21.. ang makaka-affect lang is yung priority processing group.. and i guess ang work load ng CO team..

renjo · February 2013

May nakakaalam po ba ng actual process na ginagawa ng mg COs once na ma-assigned na sa kanila yung application? Anu-anong investigations at iba pang process ang nangyayari from their end?

They may do actual verification of the details that you have included in your application - there were some members in the forum whose boss were actually called to do some verification.

Our experience naman was wala - at least we are not aware that any call was made to verify my wife's details.

dhey_almighty · February 2013

naku patay! may actual palang nagchecheck! hahaha
sige, tawagan nila yung boss kong arabo...para magkaintindihan sila! hahaha

renjo · February 2013

@psychoboy , thanks sir...

Btw, how about yung mga travels abroad...may iba kasi akong overseas business trip na hindi nai-declare kasi hindi ko na ma-track ang actual dates and place of stay...in your experience and knowledge ive-verify pa rin kaya yon...concern ko lang kasi baka ma-tag yon as dishonesty and not giving all the relevant information. Hindi ko na kasi mahanap yung dati kong passport e...

Try to make it as accurate as possible, anyway you have naman your passport to backtrack your travels diba? Isa din ito sa mga worries ko however hindi naman kami hiningan ng Form 80.

Thanks!
