  Meron na kasi ako titirhan kung sakali kaya naisip ko ipauna na ang luggage hehe.
  Kasi 491 FS kasi ang nagrant na visa, kaya kung magopen ang NSW, Victoria, ACT, No problem
  Anywhere will do except Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne.

  Yung student visa, alam ko open na by December 6 sa NSW.

  Depende kasi sa pupuntahan mo. Ang NT kasi 70.4% vaccination rate (covidlive.com.au) double-dosed
  Kung mabilis sila, Possible by January 2022 open na. I read somewhere na 4th week of December open na
  ang skilled migrants pero depende parin sa %ng vaccination and sa state.

  @anne.flawsome.19 yung 2 weeks for the physical ID na or temporary ID lang?

  @hikari nag-try ka na mag-follow-up sa hotline 132011?

  Sinubukan ko tumawag sa hotline, ang sabi sa akin processing pa daw yung application ko pero may binigay naman na sa amin na medicare ID number. Going 2 weeks pa lang this week after ako mag email sa kanila ng enrolment.

  Sinubukan ko rin pumunta sa medicare/centrelink office, hindi pa daw ako mabibigyan ng temporary ID dahil in progress pa ang processing.

  @donyx Kung meron ka nang Medicare ID number you can download the Medicare app & view your digital card there. Pwede mo nang gamitin yun. My physical card got lost in the mail & yung digital card lang ginagamit ko.

  Itatanong ko lang regarding the Digital Passenger Declaration
  https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-text/dpd/Pages/faq-english.aspx

  When should I submit a DPD?
  You can start a DPD 7 days before your flight, but you can only submit a DPD within 72 hours* before departure. This is because the Health Declaration (vaccination and COVID-19 test) is only unlocked 3 days before your flight.

  *If you are entering state and territory hotel quarantine on arrival in Australia, you should complete the trip, identity and quarantine sections between 7 days and 72 hours of your arrival in Australia.

  Question:
  1. Ano ang minimum and maximum ng submission ng Digital Passenger Declaration?
  Maximum: 72 hours before flight
  Minimum: ? <72 hours

  2. What if merong connecting flights? First Flight ay Singapore the connect Second Flight ay Sydney
     and 3rd connecting Flight like ACT, yung touchdown ACT ba ang 72 hours before?

  3) DOH Accredited lang ba na RT PCR Test or Pwede na rin na Antigen Test? Or pwede rin both?

  Bump ko lang din to, hehehe
  Sa mga naka pasok lang after magbukas borders, required pa ba yung RAT test?
  Aside from the test bago makapag board ng airplane.
