But the CO issuing a request for medicals will delay it, compared to doing it right away (assuming na all other requirements are fine.

@whimpee @era222 hala na answer namen is “Yes” naku need po ba namen magpa advice sa agent kung anu dpaat gawin since diy lng po kami or too late to explain sa notificAtion of incorrect answer thanks po ulit..

Hmmm... Maybe try asking or clarifying the matter with the case officer. Notification of incorrect answer might work... But don't have experience with this, so not sure.

Hello po, I also change address pero hindi ko muna inupdate agad ung address ko sa immi account. I am planning to update atleast a month after ko lumipat. All billing kasi nakaddress pa sa old place, recently lang ako nagupdate ng address sa billing.
Once na may hawak na kong billings on my new place or proof of address tsaka ko iuupdate. Hope it helps po.

oo nga no, parang mas may impact pag change country kaya need immediate notification sa immiaccount. pero pag sa case na same country lang din naman, baka ok lang kahit hintayin nalang ma-grant? haha.

nag sesend ba ng snail mail si DoHA dun sa indicated postal address? yun lang concern ko, if ever may i-send sila sa old address ko.

i don't think meron. kahit sa grant letter naman eh wala. hehe. kahit sa VEVO pagcheck ng visa mo, wala rin naman current address dun hehe.

Any changes in your details like address, the immigration should be notified. I think at least 15-28 days.

Hi po, question lang po, gaano po kaya katagal ang visa grant decision if na s56 po?

In my case, I received CO po last April 5, asking to provide updated Saudi PCC and no other request.

Submitted po today, April 13 po.

TIA po sa makakasagot

deedee24 · April 2023

Hi po. Any idea regarding English test validity extension? I heard pwede maextend ang validity ng english test? Nainvite po kasi ako November 2022 then while waiting to confirm na pwede na maglodge ng visa application, naexpire na yung english test ko last feb 2023.

Pwede pa ba to? Or do i have to take the english test again?

Did you lodge the visa application before Feb 2023? If so, that should be fine.

sugar_addict18 · April 2023

Hi guys. Question. Ang form 80 ba required sa 491 visa? Parang di ko na encounter yun nung naglodge kami.salamat!

Hi, the English exams results both PTE and IELTS have a validity of 2 years. But for AU migration, it is valid for 3 years from the date it was undertaken. So even if your English exam results are technically already expired in year 2, you can still use it for another year for your AU migration.

Hi, silent reader here.

Civil Engineer | 189 | Visa Lodged - 27 Oct 2022

Received request for more information for evidences of employment (S56) - 28 Mar 2023. Okay lang po ba na hindi lahat ng payslips ay nasubmit? I mean for at least 2-3 payslips per company I've worked with na naisubmit ko. I also upload some of my tax assessment forms and employment contracts. Thank you.

ga2au · April 2023

I submitted at least the first 3months of payslips, then every year at least 3months. So kung 5 years ka sa company, I've send 15 payslips. Thats just what i did
