Hi. Im seeing posts ng mga na.grant na ( congrats po sa inyo, btw! ), some nag igay ng form 80, yung iba naman hindi. Does it make a difference if you submit one? Or tsaka nalang magsusubmit pag hihingin na ni CO?

mas okay na e front load mo na lahat ng pwede mong e submit para grant na lang hihintayin mo kasi kapag na CO contact ka pa mas tatagal pa yung waiting time.

Diskarte pla dito ipasa mo lahat na ng kailangan kung ano ung nababasa mo dito sa forum, para wla na masyado delay, like PCC, updated bank statements etc. tapos gawin na din medicals agad bsta makaka generate ka na nung HAP ID at reference letter.

Hi po, may mga naka experience po ba dito na yung NBI Clearance ay may AKA name nakalagay which is yung nickname nya. Magiging issue po ba yun? Yung sa partner ko po kasi ay for example ang given name nya JOHN MARK, nkalagay po sa pcc nya na may AKA name sya na JOHN. Namali po kasi ng fil in ng ng form ang asawa ko. Nilagay nya ang nickname nya sa form kaya lumitaw po sa clearance nya un as AKA name. Thank you po sa sasagot.

Hi all,
Congrats sa mga na-grant and gooduck sa mga waiting
Thanks din po sa mga shared tips sa whole process ng DIY visa.
Granted na po kami sa 189 Visa (me and my husband) last 12 April.
We are planning to stay in Europe for a maximum of 2 years. Lipad po kami this end of May to Europe. For the 1st entry sa Aus, kelangan namin pumasok within a year. Magvisit po kami sa Aus this May (1 week lang). Medyo hindi lang po kami sure sa mga ito:
Salamat po!

This is just this guy's opinion (but backed up by numbers). It seems there will be no more 189 invitation rounds for the remainder of the FY. Also, most applicants will have to wait until the next FY to get their 189 visas granted.
