Not sure about this, but if your from 491, next visa mo will be 191(permanent) , then after some time saka ka palang makakapag apply ng citizenship. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you. @stihlce12 . I called their hotline. Unfortunately, kelangan ko i-ignore yung pre-invite nila. kasi 6month residency requirement daw pala talaga prior to invite. Resubmit na lang ulit ng EOI. hindi pwede gamitin yung same EOI to re-apply.

It was a frustrating wait as I preferred 190 over 189 due to long visa processing time at the time of lodgement, finally paid off.
This group has been very helpful. Donβt lose hope, next is yours.

no worries. yes you have to submit fresh EOI. syang yong invitation, thats why we need to read carefully before submitting our EOI. worst case if in visa lodgement and paid the fee then end up refusal pala. we have to be careful on this at early stage plang.

Depends kung ano ang invitation na nakuha mo. For state nomination ba or for visa application na? If for visa application, hindi required na magpasa kaagad ng NBI clearance. Pwede mo i-wait yung case officer na magrequest sayo, pero pwede rin namang ipasa mo na, basta take note na mageexpire yan in 12 months. So IF (if lang naman) lumagpasa ang visa application mo nang 12 months, kakailangan mo kumuha ulit.

Kung based sa trending ngayon yung mga 189, 190, 491, visa grant agad hindi na umaabot ng 1 year. So kukumpletuhin na yung Form 80, medical, and police clearance para bumilis ang processing and para makatulong rin sa iba na na nakapila na maprocess rin agad. Hindi na yung icase officer contact saka babalikan ka ulit. Mura lang naman ang nbi. mura rin ang medical compared sa oras na nasayang

Same, 12 months. If may budget ka and medyo kabado ka sa results and don't want to wait longer, get your medicals done na, I would say. Para in case may odd findings ma-resolve agad. Pero pwede rin namang wait ka rin for case officer contact if preferred talaga yun.

yep @stihlce12 . Sayang nga. pero ganun talaga ang life . resubmit na lang. last year kasi nung nasubmit namin yung unang eoi namin. offshore pa kami. then nagka work dito. so nag change status ako ng EOI from offshore to onshore. kaso may minimum of 6months residency pala na. hindi ko na din kasi nawithdraw, hindi ko naexpect na may pre-invite ako agad. short of few days sa 6-month residency namin.

Hello everyone,
question, sino po dito ang nag process thru agent visa fee? pano nyo po binayaran ang visa nyo?
we are going to use our credit card and ang sabi ni Agent kelangan namin ibigay ang photo front and back ng credit card sa kanya? ok lang ba yun? or kung yun ba ang tamang process ng mga agent? or dapat ba kami ang mag bayad direct sa Immi bigyan nya lang kami ng link?
Joined: Nov 26, 2021
every agency iba po ata ng process, I have a friend na same ang ginawa, inask po ng agency yung credit card details nya - safe naman daw po ang no unknown charges sa kanya.
For my case, Respall agent, they paid the visa fee using their credit card then I paid them in Peso na lang po after.

Not sure lang sa photo... But yes, providing details to your agent is fine. Kung photo talaga siguro ang process sa agency mo, make sure to send it in a secure way na lang siguro.
