  Congratulations po!!!! Grabe po yun journey nyo. Nakakainspire.
  Pwede po magtanong? Ano po yun mga tests na ginawa sa inyo and sa child nun nagpa-medical po kayo sa SATA AMK?

  Thank you, glad that I was able to inspire you. 🙂

  Regarding the tests, my wife and I had the following tests: blood pressure, eye sight, urine for glucose and blood for TB.

  For our child, she had the same. We opted for the blood test for TB instead of the skin test for her. It was more pricey but our doctor said that it was faster and more accurate.

  I hope this helps. Good luck on your journey. 🙂

  Thank you very much sa pag reply po sa query ko. God bless po!

  If DFA is specifically asking for the passport, you must give them what they are asking for because it is one of the most important required documents that they are checking in your visa application. Your child's passport number will be appearing in the visa grant and in the details in the VEVO account once granted. If you do not submit a passport, definitely your child will be refused a visa.

  MY ROAD TO AUSTRALIAN PR

  Nominated Occupation: Architectural Draftsperson - ANZSCO 312111 (Offshore)

  ---

  2020

  Jan 20: Since I’m DIYing it, I started researching and learning the whole process.
  Feb 22: VETASSESS – I started gathering all required documents.
  Apr 25: VETASSESS – I finished gathering all my documents. I created my account and started filling up the Skills Assessment for General Occupation Application.
  Apr 29: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents. I started uploading the required documents. I decided not to include my first work in the Philippines because I don’t have payment evidence of it. I didn’t include my 1st work in Singapore as well because I don’t have a Certificate of Employment from that job.
  Apr 30: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents for the last time.
  May 01: VETASSESS – I successfully submitted my online assessment for Architectural Draftsperson. Total amount paid is AUD$ 880 (SGD$ 842.66) Crossing my fingers that the outcome will be positive.
  May 05: VETASSESS – My application status was lodged.
  Jul 12: VETASSESS – After 11 weeks, the results came out and it was Positive. Number of years assessed positively was 9.63 which is equivalent to 15 points in EOI.
  Jul 25: IELTS – I finally booked my IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 365. My test date was Aug 16, 2020.
  Aug 16: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
  Aug 21: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 9.0 R: 7.5 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
  Aug 22: EOI – I finally submitted my Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect for NSW Visa 190.

  My points breakdown:
  Age: 25
  English Language Ability: 10
  Education: 15
  State Nomination: 5
  Years of Experience: 15
  Total: 70 points

  *Invitation rounds for NSW nomination under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) are currently closed. I’m expecting that this may take a while because of the pandemic and the current situation in Australia. I just have to wait for the federal government’s advice on when it will open again.

  ---

  2022

  Jul 5: IELTS – Since my IELTS exam result was expiring on Aug 16, 2022, I booked my 2nd IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 378. My test date was on Jul 17, 2022. I didn’t know at that time that Australia is accepting its validity for 3 years. But I was able to use it as well for my Canada PR application.
  Jul 17: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
  Jul 20: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 8.0 R: 9.0 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
  Jul 25: EOI – I received a notice that my EOI is expiring on August 23, 2022, so I had to resubmit it.
  Aug 23: EOI – My Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect expired after 2 years.
  Aug 25: EOI – I submitted my new Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect.

  My points breakdown:
  Age: 25
  English Language Ability: 10
  Education: 15
  State Nomination: 5
  Years of Experience: 15
  Total: 70 points

  *Invitation rounds for NSW nominations under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) were still closed. It’s expected to open in November 2022. I hope I get invited before my birthday because I will lose points during an age milestone on December.

  Sep 09: EOI – After a long wait, NSW’s Skilled Visa Nomination Program finally opened. However, my skill points for my nominated occupation didn’t meet the minimum points required which is 90. I only had 70 points. I updated my EOI and changed my preferred state to Victoria, which only requires a minimum of 65 points. I then created an account in the Live In Melbourne portal and submitted my Registration of Interest (ROI).

  Dec XX: EOI – My points went down to 60 points due to an age milestone and I am now not qualified for at EOI in the Australian Skillselect. My only hope is to get higher points in my English exam to get back in the pool. I withdrew my EOI and ROI in Victoria.
  Dec19: – I booked my PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 367.11). My exam date was on Dec 30, 2022.
  Dec 30: PTE – I took the PTE Academic English Test. My test results came out the same day: L: 84 R:84 S: 90 W: 75. I didn’t get the scores that I needed to achieve Superior English.
  Dec 31: PTE – I booked another PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 361.28). My exam date was on Jan 09, 2023.

  Add ko lang din 8,450.00 kay St Lukes BGC nung nagcheck ako sa kanila last year lang din yan April 2023

  yung samin hindi siya parehas. from grant date exactly 1 year yung binigay samin for initial entry to AU. pero may mga cases minsan na months lang yung binibigay to enter. yung iba nga days or weeks lang. pero yung mga days most likely typo siya so they had to inform the CO. pero yung months I don't know the reason kung bakit maiksi lang yung time na binibigay sa kanila.

  MY ROAD TO AUSTRALIAN PR

  Nominated Occupation: Architectural Draftsperson - ANZSCO 312111 (Offshore)

  ---

  2020

  Jan 20: Since I’m DIYing it, I started researching and learning the whole process.
  Feb 22: VETASSESS – I started gathering all required documents.
  Apr 25: VETASSESS – I finished gathering all my documents. I created my account and started filling up the Skills Assessment for General Occupation Application.
  Apr 29: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents. I started uploading the required documents. I decided not to include my first work in the Philippines because I don’t have payment evidence of it. I didn’t include my 1st work in Singapore as well because I don’t have a Certificate of Employment from that job.
  Apr 30: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents for the last time.
  May 01: VETASSESS – I successfully submitted my online assessment for Architectural Draftsperson. Total amount paid is AUD$ 880 (SGD$ 842.66) Crossing my fingers that the outcome will be positive.
  May 05: VETASSESS – My application status was lodged.
  Jul 12: VETASSESS – After 11 weeks, the results came out and it was Positive. Number of years assessed positively was 9.63 which is equivalent to 15 points in EOI.
  Jul 25: IELTS – I finally booked my IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 365. My test date was Aug 16, 2020.
  Aug 16: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
  Aug 21: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 9.0 R: 7.5 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.
  Aug 22: EOI – I finally submitted my Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect for NSW Visa 190.

  My points breakdown:
  Age: 25
  English Language Ability: 10
  Education: 15
  State Nomination: 5
  Years of Experience: 15
  Total: 70 points

  *Invitation rounds for NSW nomination under the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) are currently closed. I’m expecting that this may take a while because of the pandemic and the current situation in Australia. I just have to wait for the federal government’s advice on when it will open again.

  2022

  Jul 5: IELTS – Since my IELTS exam result was expiring on Aug 16, 2022, I booked my 2nd IELTS Computer-delivered Test for SGD$ 378. My test date was on Jul 17, 2022. I didn’t know at that time that Australia is accepting its validity for 3 years. But I was able to use it as well for my Canada PR application.
  Jul 17: IELTS – It was my test day. Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing were all taken on this day.
  Jul 20: IELTS – My test results came out. L: 8.0 R: 9.0 W: 7.0 S: 7.5 which is Proficient English. It is equivalent to 10 points in EOI.

  Sep 09: EOI – After a long wait, NSW’s Skilled Visa Nomination Program finally opened. However, my skill points for my nominated occupation didn’t meet the minimum points required which is 90. I only had 70 points. I updated my EOI and changed my preferred state to Victoria, which only requires a minimum of 65 points. I then created an account in the Live In Melbourne portal and submitted my Registration of Interest (ROI).

  Dec XX: EOI – My points went down to 60 points due to an age milestone and I am now not qualified for at EOI in the Australian Skillselect. My only hope is to get higher points in my English exam to get back in the pool. I withdrew my EOI and ROI in Victoria.
  Dec19: – I booked my PTE English Test for USD$ 260 (SGD$ 367.11). My exam date was on Dec 30, 2022.

  Ayus. Thanks po sa reply. Medyo napaisip lang kasi kami kung kailangan ba ipaulit yung medical saka pcc. And if part ba nung initial entry date is kailangan hindi expire yung medical and pcc.

  Hiii. May ganitong requirement ba talaga na dapat hindi expired yung medicals and police clearance upon initial entry for visa 190? Yung medicals ba na ginawa during visa lodgement may expiry date? Ang alam ko immi grant letter lang ang need... #confused

  PH NBI Clearance, yes alam ko ito may 1 year validity lang.
  How about Singapore COC? Walang indicated na validity period kasi.

  Walang ganyan requirement as far as I know. Just follow the first entry date in the visa grant, that's it. No unnecessary renewals of PCC/medicals required. Save yourselves from the trouble.

  I wonder though, san nanggaling yung idea.

  

  DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

  Nabasa ko po sya d2 sa pinoyau lang din. Hehe. Kaya kinoconfirm ko lang dun s mga nagrant na kung ano experience nila. Pero yun nga, wala ata syang fix formula.
