For those who got invited, please make sure your English and skills assessment outcome are still valid. It seems SA don’t double check these things. Had a few invites and we couldn’t proceed because they won’t meet the requirements for nomination due to expired assessment. I was surprised we got the invite when I knew they shouldn’t as we’re currently sorting out re-assessments for them.

Hi Sir, thank you po. Last week lang po pero for 491 po sya not 190. Kaso undecided po kami kung itutuloy kasi may pending application na po kami sa Canada for PR na yun.
Joined: Oct 22, 2019
Kung kayo po ang nasa posisyon namin, alin po ang pipiliin nyo? Canada or Australia? First choice po kasi talaga namin noon pa ang Aus kaso di naiinvite til nainvite naman kami sa Can. We prefer Aus than Can because of the weather and masmalapit sa Pinas. Kaso nainvite po kami ng Aus as 490 unlike sa Can na PR na. Parang sabi ng puso ko sa Aus kami pero sabi ng isip ko Can na kasi po PR na nga don unlike 490 na magintay pa ng 3yrs then apply for PR. #ThankYouLord

I'll choose Aus than Canada hehe.. After 3 yrs sa 491 PR ka na rin naman ang bagsak importante gusto mo yung place favorable ang weather at malapit sa Pilipinas na anytime pwede umuwi
Sa canada PR ka nga kaso naninigas ka naman sa lamig kahit summer haha hindi mo rin ma enjoy at prone to depression ang taglamig haha..
