    Really happy to share that I got my NSW 190 grant today! Thank you to everyone who helped me out here sa forum, lalo na mga sumagot ng very-newbie questions ko sa simula 💙

    For my details/timeline, check na lang ng signature ko. Hehe.

    Congrats sister! Thank you for all your efforts answering queries here hehehe. Hope to see more photos from your BM.

    May I know po what’s in the commencement email?

    It's a notification you get when your visa application gets assigned to a case officer and they start reviewing your requirements/documents. Not everyone gets it; I don't know kung anong basis nila sa pagmove ng application to commencement. But some go straight to grant, others get a commencement email first.

    A simple google search will give you some answers, pero eto ang isang reason kung bakit mas ok mag hire ng registered agent to do all the paper works for you. :)

    Have you tried searching other discussion threads? Maybe this will help: https://www.vistamigration.com.au/post/mistakes-that-could-cost-your-visa

    General rule is to keep the information in your lodgement consistent with your EOI so that you don't get rejected. Make sure also you have complete documents. If you have questions on specific items on the form, best to post it here so that others can help. You can also search in other existing threads.

    Hello po, need your advice, upon lodgment of visa. Need ko na po ba isama yung middle name?

    PTE - NO MIDDLE NAME
    EA ASSESSMENT LETTER -** WITH MIDDLE NAME**
    EOI - NO MIDDLE NAME
    VIC INVITATION - NO MIDDLE NAME

    Bale yung EA ko lang ang may middlename. may magiging issue po ba? since hindi na sya paparehas sa eoi ko,

    May nakausap na din ako, no bearing naman daw sa AU ang middle name at maraming no middle name na mga migrants, na nakapasok at nakalabas naman daw sa AU.

    Thank you, Happy New Year!

    Hello po! The same thing happened po sakin sa PTE. Not sure po if mahigpit sila sa middle name but just to be sure, pinacorrect ko nalang po yung sakin. Mag email lang po kayo sa kanila and they will ask you po to submit a copy of your passport. Tapos icocorrect na po nila. 😊

    We (as a couple) were granted visas without the Middle Name on the EOI and visa application initially. Our documents are as follow:

    • PTE - with middle name
    • Skills Assessment - no middle name
    • Employment references, pay slips, tax documents, etc - inconsistent, may or may not have middle name
    • Form 80 - added a format in the Given Name field
      ** [First Name] Juan [Mother's Maiden Surname] Marasigan for me,
      ** then for wife [First Name] Juana [Maiden Surname] Santos

    The result was in the end, our EOI and visa application were amended by DHA themselves and they added the middle name onto them. The grant letters included the middle name as well.

    I think, matalino naman ang DHA pagdating sa ganyan. As long as all your documents are legitimate and consistent at bare minimum on first and last name, walang magiging problema sa application.

    Now onshore, we chose to be more consistent after the grant with all our Australian documents always include the middle name when asked. Otherwise, we just provide first and last names. :)

    The result was in the end, our EOI and visa application were amended by DHA themselves and they added the middle name onto them. The grant letters included the middle name as well.

    I think, matalino naman ang DHA pagdating sa ganyan. As long as all your documents are legitimate and consistent at bare minimum on first and last name, walang magiging problema sa application.

    Now onshore, we chose to be more consistent after the grant with all our Australian documents always include the middle name when asked. Otherwise, we just provide first and last names. :)

    Thanks for this po!
