    hello po. possible ba ma refuse ang visa kapag 95 points nasa EOI pero 90 lang pala dapat.

    For example sa software engineer hindi pala dapat counted first 2 years na work exp pero nalagay sa EOI so baka incorrect yung extra 5 points.

    Pwede pa bang ma-correct yan kahit naka lodge na ang Visa?

    asking for a friend

    Hello, yung 2 years na hndi dapat counted ito po ba yung nasa ACS na before ng dates sa "The following employment after date...." ?

    It means hindi pa tapos yung assessment ni BUPA. In our case (family of 5), di rin sabay-sabay nakuha yung clearance.

    Yes, usually meron. last 2 weeks of December. :)

    Di ko lang alam for government offices. Pero malamang nyan meron naka leave. Just manage your expectation similar to last year, bumagal ang grants and invites towards the end of the calendar year.
