If you are old enough, I think you just get your learners, get driving lessons to be confident in driving. Then after a few lessons, you can take the actual driving test.

Next mong ipapasa is P(red) na lisensya, pero need mo ipasa yung hazard at actual test. Then may test kapa ata ulit to P (green), not sure kasi diko pa maeexplore itong level na ito. Then test ulot para magka C license ka, which is a full licence. Ngayun ko pinagsisisihan kung bakit di ako kumuha ng lisensya sa sg. Haha.

Yung subsidy depende sa income ng parents (combined). the more income of parents, the less subsidy. The range of subsidy nasa 50-85%.
Pwede kahit ilan ata. tapos may discount dun sa next child. di ko sure magkano kasi panganay ko pa lang yung nasa childcare.

Sa Blacktown kami tumira e. Andito kasi mostly mga necessities ng family namin. Hindi siya malapit sa city, pero ung husband ko, magdadricr lang siya sa nearest park to ride or madalas sa sevenhills, then mag express train siya to city. Mabilis kami nakahanap ng house e. Not really sure why. But i think isa sa major reason is ung proof na we can pay at pati mabilis mahire ung occupation.

Ito po ang sabi sa website ng cfo. Kung di po sigurado at kung may extra time naman po kayo pagka-grant, siguro kuha nalang din po kayo. Free lang naman sya, bali ang babayaran lang ay 30pesos documentary stamp at 100+ na courier fee then makakakuha na ng temporary certificate na pwede ipakita sa immigration officer sa Pinas.
