Hi bro, you can choose to update or not to update. Many of the members have obtained their grants even without the middle name during the application.
For the question on how to update, we clicked the update details in the immi account and there is a link to click there to notify/update of incorrect answers.
To do it or not to do it, it is up to you. I am not a migration agent but knowing na mali yung nalagay ko lalo di ako mapapakali.
We updated our names for our own peace of mind, pati na din pag granted na less headache or corrections.
So far, awaiting grants pa din. Hopefully by June July or Aug 2023 ๐

Hello po,
Meron po ba dito ang recently nag convert ng PH license to AU license? Pashare naman po ng tips and steps. Hindi ko po kase maconvert yung PH license to SG license (got my PH license after makakuha ng work sa SG).
Nasa Melbourne po ako ngayon, naghahanap din ng work and pwedeng rentahan pagbalik ng September.
Thank you.

No. You'd need both the assessment result and the English test reference number to successfully lodge an EOI.

Siguro depende lang din sa choice ng bawat tao, hehe kumbaga choose your own โhardโba.. bago pa lang kami sa Perth, but so far eto naobserve nmin. we migrated to au kc d kmi makasecure PR sa Sg, may uncertainties sa future para sa family lalo kids, mahal schooling for foreigners, mahal rental, mahal car. Pero living in sg has its perks din, convenient lahat, malapit lahat, pwede mag yaya (for those with kids), okay public transport. Sa Au, we got our future secured, lalo for the kids, hopefully weโll secure our citizenship din in the future, but here, gawa mo lahat ksi mahal mag engage ng services ng iba, pwede nman, at a price. maaga closed mga shops. Compared to SG, mura public school, 260 per yr vs 1k per month (private), okay both public transport (sa perth libre bus within CBD at papunta CBD), mahal pareho housing, pero at HDB resale price, makbili ka landed house here (sa perth to), mura car (same as ph price) sa au compared sa sg dahil sa coe. Mas naging challenge sa akin makadjust for now un maigsi un araw, ๐ 7am madilim pa, 5:20pm gabi na, feels like 9pm na ang 7pm kaya inaantok na kmi ๐ good luck sa big move nyo sa sept!

Thank you for sharing! Tingin ko major challenge is yung walang househelp haha. Na spoil na tayo dito sa singapore with the helper. So pag nasa AU na is back to basic sa pag prepare at pag maintain ng household.

Same here po, migrating to AU on Sept. Siguro po di talaga mawawala yung worries natin about sa job lalo na kung stable at matagal na dito sa SG. Same kami ng husband mo, ako din medyo worried pero iniisip ko na lang yung reason bakit kami mag migrate sa AU like yung schooling ng mga kids, yung permanent residency and better work life balance.

@Conboyboy @Tortillos yup ganun nga hahah share ko lang din based sa experience nmin, syempre wala pa ako sa stage na nakikita ko un kasi kakasimula pa lang sa work and d pa nagschool ang kids, but eto share ko lang, factor din ung kung san state pipiliin nyo pumunta, from work opportunities, to logistics, to presyo ng bahay for long term na, to working environment ganyan, diversity, congestion. We initially planned to go to Sydney, nabook na flight and all, naghahanap na din kami nun ng suburb na titirhan, tapos praying for work transfer from sg to sydney, then inaral namin gano ktagal ibbyahe from home (suburb choice was blacktown kasi may relatives kami dun) to work (cbd), how much un kayang rental, san malapit na school for kids, how much ung before and after school care, how much un houses sa blacktown na maafford nmin.. parang nalungkot ako nun nakita ko super layo, abutin ata ng 1hr 15min or more depende sa transfers, plus plus pa if namiss mo yun train or bus, nasanay sa sg na atleast 20-30mins public transport or 15mins taxi kaya na punta office. Blessing na din cguro ni Lord na nauna ako nagkaoffer ng transfer sa Perth, hesitant pa kmi nun, pero after namin aralin, mas ok in terms of logistics, mas malapit un affordable na suburbs to cbd, 15mins by bus (south ng swan river), mas mabilis pa pagcar, un mabibili mo na house na 700k sa perth nasa 1m sa sydney, (based lang to sa inaral namin na locations syempre, hindi ko intention i-generalize un sydney or perth.. tapos same lahat ng gastusin, ay Toll free pla freeway sa WA, tapos free din public bus sa cbd. Factor din pla weather. Ang sacrifice lang nmin eh wala kmi kamaganak dito ahehe. Maganda sa sydney, madami papasyalan, hehe pero sa pamilyado like us we prefer un simple na and di congested. Mas oarang sg ang sydney, malamig lang hehe
Anyway, yung gist lang is, impt na aralin nyo ung choice of state na pupuntahan nyo kasi malaki din impact sa magiging options nyo later on.

papalapit po parang napapaisip ako if tama ba tong big move namin.Yung husband ko po kase talagang pinilit ko lang gusto nia talaga magstay sa SG kase PR naman kami pero ako naman gusto ko na umalis dahil super stress na sa work.Wala pa po kami anak and hoping magkaroon na sa paglipat namin sa AU..

@RM10 one option po siguro na pwede nyong gawin is wag munang i-give up yung PR nyo dito, para pwede pang bumalik just in case. Pero share ko lang yung case namin, PR din kaming dalawa ni misis pero yung mga bata hindi, nakailang apply na kami pero rejected lagi, yung last PR application nga eh inabot ng 13 months pero rejected pa din. Di naman sinasabi yung reason kaya di namin alam kung anong kulang sa application. Dito pinanganak yung mga kids ko, and nung pinanganak eh PR na kami. Di rin sila nabigyan ng slot sa local school kaya until now eh nasa private. Nag try din kaming mag apply ng citizenship for the whole family but rejected din after 12 months. Few weeks after nung rejection namin sa citizenship eh dumating naman yung invitation ng AU, perfect yung timing ni God.

Waaa, sobrang ideal nung PR na kayo sa SG. Sa totoo lang, kung ganyan sitwasyon namin ngayon, di na kami aalis ng SG ni misis hahahahahahaha.
SG is like the most ideal country to live in, for us. I dont need to list down all the reasons, very apparent naman kung bakit. Keber na sa mainit na weather. Mga taga SG bakasyunan lang ang AU. Real talk lang. "School" lang sa kanila ang AU.
Dont get me wrong, I super love AU too, pero yung sobrang taas na tax yung nakakapagpaisip sakin minsan. Lalo't wala pa rin kami anak. Healthy rin naman kami and kayang maging prepared for emergencies.
But oh well, di kami naging PR dito, so we had to pursue that somewhere else, and maybe somehow SG is really not for us.
So yeah, go go go nyo na yan. Andyan na yung visa e, sana wala lang sisihan mangyari sa inyo in the end since sabi mo nga, parang napilitan lang yung husband mo on coming to AU. I wish you all the best.

Yes its really ideal po yung PR dito sa SG at madaming nangangarap makuha po inlcuding us hehe.. but sa mga na notice po namin this past recent years, ideal po sya po for young professionals and newly couple po.
We known PR and even Citizens are migrated to AU and now became AU citizens at sabi nga.. no turning back. Few reasons are long term benefits, explore more of comfort zone, work life balance and for the future of the kids :-)

Yeahhh. To each their own.
It's just that, in the end, dont come up with a decision based on others' opinions. Take them as advice, but decide for yourself on what you think and feel is the best for your own future. ๐
