    Hi po!

    Question lang po :) Nakapaglodge na po ako ng 189 visa. Sa current address ko po (onshore), nagkaron po ako ng typographical error sa postal code. Paano ko po ba ito macocorrect?

    Sa immi, may pwede pong i-click na "notification of incorrect answer (s)". I-fill in ko lang po ba ito ng correct answer, okay na po yun? or aside from this, may need pa po akong gawin?

    Thank you po sa sasagot!

    Hi. Question po,

    Naka receive ako ng S56 from CO. Asking for my spouse “evidence of Functional English”.

    Hindi ako nag claim ng any points from my partner.

    Pwede bang proof of functional english ung Certificate of English as Medium of Instruction, Bachelor’s Degree cert and TOR?

    Patulong po of need pa ba mag take ng English to exam ang partner?

    ayon sa website pwede naman yan. https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/meeting-our-requirements/english-language/functional-english

    however may possibility na baka hindi maging satisfied si CO sa English as medium of instruction cert, so baka magrequest ulet ng further proof. surefire way para maaccomplish niyo ito is just to take the PTE. functional lang naman ang required so 30 points on all bands lang ang minimum requirement.

    pwede ka din magbayad to waive ito, pero mas mahal ata yun kesa sa magtake kayo ng PTE nalang.

    @michael713 based on our experience po, kahit nag submit na kami ng CEMI for functional english nagkaroon pa din kami ng CO contact asking for functional english ng husband ko kahit di kami ng claim ng partner points, kaya nagtake na lang din sya ng PTE otherwise we have to pay the second VAC mas mahal 😅

    Hi guys. Question. Parang di ko naencounter yung sinasabing settlement funds nung naglodge ako ng visa. May nakita ba kayong ganito? Ang naalala ko lang na nadeclare kong sahod ay through coe / contracts. Salamat.
