    @Desert_Cowboy i mean for state nomination need na ng payslip and bank statement? Chineck ko kasi yung SA document checklist, nakaspecify sa work experience documents is SA work xp lang. yung offshore xp, employment reference lang need. Nainvite po ba kayo sa SA?

    @Desert_Cowboy , kaya nga nagulat kami kasi ang bilis nagkaroon ng CO. Offshore po

    Police Clearance ung hinanap sau? Baka pag sinama mo un nagrant ka na. hehe

    Oo, Local police clearance lang. Cross-Fingers. Hopefully early Christmas gift or New Year gift.

    Paano/Saan niyo po malalaman if may allocated na CO na sa inyo?

    May na receive po kami na email at nagbigay po sya ng checklist kung anong kulang sa application namin. Which was expected since hinihintay pa namin yung hardcopy ng police clearance nya.

    Although, uncertain if CO na ba na sya.

    Sa ibang na CO, please confirm.

    @marcbesy yes po that is CO contact.. congrats in advance sa inyo… after nyo macomplete ung checklist. Visa grant na po yan.

    Salamat po sa pag-sagot. Yung status po kasi ng application ko is further assessment not sure kung meron na ba naka assign or wala. Nag-front load kasi ako ng docs. Not sure kung paano yung basis para masabi kung may-CO assigned na.

    Hi sir. Anu pong visa ang nilodge nyo?

    491 visa sir, state nomi

    Hello po,

    question, pag nag lodge ng EOI, dun sa nominated occupation, can you answer as Medical Laboratory Scientist kahit mageexam ka pa? So right now sa assessment ko, i am a Medical Laboratory Technician and i'm invited to sit for the exam for mach 2022. Pwede na ba ako mag lodge ng EOI ko ngayon as a Medical Lab Scientist? Tapos amend ko nalang yung EOI once i finish the exams

    Thanks po for all your help

    Hindi po pwede. Dapat lahat ng details na nilalagay mo sa EOI mo ay kaya mong iprove. In your case, you can't apply for Med Lab Scientist kasi you are not yet assessed as such. Magiging grounds din po sa refusal ng visa application mo yan kung sakaling mainvite ka kasi magcoconflict ung Date of effect ng EOI mo sa Date of Assessment mo from AIMS. Advice ko lang is to take it one step at a time., focus ka muna sa exam mo and find ways to increase your points. Then after you passed your assessment, lodge your EOI and hope for the best. Kunti lang ang nag aaply sa Med Lab Scientist so kapag mataas points mo, expect to be invited within a year. Under Critical Occupation and MLS so priority to for invite. For the meantime, you can lodge EOI for Med Lab Technician kasi you'll never know baka bigla kang mainvite.. Goodluck sau katusok.

    Salamat po for the advice! Tama ka po one step at a time. Pwedeng mag lodge muna ako as Med lab Tech until such na tapos na yung exams and then pass the exams. Pwede ba po bang i-update yung EOI mo as Med lab Scientist after passing the exams? Or kelangan po mag lodge ng bagong EOI? Salamat po for all your help!:)))

    Hi. Maglodge ka nalang ng bagong EOI after ng exam mo. Di ata pwedeng mapalitan ung profession sa EOI, or kung pwede man, magrereset din ung Date of Effect mo. Advise ko is isang EOI per visa category (491,189,190)Lodge ka agad habang nasa Priority list ang 234611. ilang points ka ba currently?
