    You need to call them. Dapat first minute ang pagtanggap ng tawag, kailangan mo sila tawagan kasi mahaba ang waiting time nila. Maraming verifications.

    Pwede mo rin iapply sa Australian Post ng re-routing of snail mail sa new address mo. Lahat ng mail mo just in case inapply mo isang taon, maredirect from your previous address to your new address at a corresponding fee.

    Then, pwede mo na iupdate sa online iregister mo na ang medicare sa medicare app. You can change the address, bank details and etc.

    Hi po, just a curious question po, especially po sa mga nakareceive na po ng grants, may ilang months po ba na namention sa decision kung hanggang kailan po kayo pwede pa magstay sa phils? i.e. dapat by this month nakaenter ka na ng aus. (And how many months po to from the decision?) Thank you.

    You will usually have one year to activate your PR visa. Based sa mga nakikita ko, usually based sa date ng medicals—some are based sa date naman ng PCC.
