Hello! My previous employer is not responsive when I asked about my Statement of Service. Has anyone tried to do Statutory of Declaration when submitting in Vetassess?

If di na updated si SG sa new passport ,yung records mo with them is not linked to the current one, but you have the option to use your FIN which is permanent identifier na for us foreigners even ex - SGs.

What i mean is for signing in to their E-services in SPF you can use FIN . For passport particulars better use the current one sa pag- fill up nang COC application.

Hello! To those who have commbank and use to transfer aud to sgd, talaga bang UOB lang ang nasa list ng banks? Wala kasi sa app yung DBS, GXS, and OCBC. 😟
Transfers to PH account okay naman, pero to SG account, ang hirap.
P.S. Di ako mangungutang, nagtatanong lang. Hahahah

I use Wise (formerly TransferWise). Mas maganda yung exchange rates, and pag verified yung account mo, it just takes minutes for the money to reach.
You can transfer to PH as well using that.
DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

Vote on this! Have been using them for quite a while now and didn’t face any issues. Also can convert to various currencies on the go and use at various outlets.( Have used them successfully at various outlets in PH too )
@mathilde9 If your account is SG based- there is a holding limit for the day. I.e if you receive a substantial (please check their faqs) amount, you would need to get that out from your account with them to your bank.
