@miller115 : hehehe tenku.. sana wlang aberya at tuloy2x na tong big move natin
@Linetdane : ay oo nga pla, ung travel declaration.. thanks for the reminder, pati s passport Kakakuha lng dn ni partner ng new passport kc. Ang ATD eh least 72hrs dba?
Nabasa ko to s Home Affairs:
Before you come to Australia, you may also need:
1) a valid visa to enter Australia
2) to submit an exemption to Australiaโs travel restrictions
3) authority to enter Australian states or territories.
Eto bang #3 ay kailangan ng written dox or the announcement that they are accepting overseas travel is enough?
Thank you so much po.

I saw this:
"Children aged under 12 years count as fully vaccinated for travel purposes. Their passport will be used as proof of age at the airport."

Sa mga mag-BM or nakapag-BM na, anong magandang way para mamaximize ang value ng PHP to AUD para sa pocket money? Nag check kasi ako sa mga forex ng AU banks, ang laki ng charges nila kaya I'm thinking na bumili na ng AUD dito. BM na kami this January. Thanks!

Question po, sana may makasagot po pls. We have a 491 Visa and we are wondering since hindi kami nakapasok agad, ano po ba ang mangyayari if after 5 years nag expire na yung visa and hindi pa po namin na fulfill yung requirements to work for 3 years in a regional area? Mababalewala po ba yung visa and papauwiin kami? (wag naman po sana hehe)
Thanks in advance!
