    based sa website nila and dun sa confirmation e-mail pag nagsubmit ka ng ROI, mukhang wala. magugulat ka nalang pag may dumating, at maghihintay habang wala pa. hehe.

    Hello po, question on submitting ROI for VIC. I am planning to submit ROI for visa 190 kaso nakita ko na ung EOI ko ay expiring on Oct 2 this year na pala. :( Would you advise to create another EOI then use the new EOI for my VIC ROI, or ilaban na ang existing EOI (with DOE ng 2020 pa) sa ROI ngayon? Thank you!

    From the LiveInMelbourne website, you can withdraw and resubmit your ROI. So, you can create the ROI for your existing EOI then just recreate and resend both once the existing EOI expires.

    Thanks @jomar011888 and @juju06 ! Mukhang better option nga to create new EOI and ROI since ROI ang magma-matter.
