hi everyone...pasensya na, epost ko din dito, guys ask ko lng sana ano pagkaka intindi nyo dto sa reply ng ACS.

Your Employment Reference Letter for your network Engineer at abc.com work episode is unsuitable for assessment due to the following reasons: Black & White Scan;Certified True Copy.
---> tama po ba understanding ko dpat hndi certified true copy ang e send ko? tpos dpat colored yon scan? kaso yon original hindi din kasi colored. May same case ba sa inyo?

Your Bank Statements (employed) for your network engineer at abc.com work episode is unsuitable for assessment due to the following reasons: Required Details Not Given.
---> payslip ang inattached ko at hindi bank statements

Your Payslips for your Network Engineer at abc.com work episode is unsuitable for assessment due to the following reasons: Certified True Copy.
---> eto yon tinitingnan ko na tamang document pero dapat ba hindi naka certify true copy?

Thank you po.

No need for certified true copy po. Just need good quality colored scans of payslips (first and last month of the year sakin), ITR, employee reference letter or statutory declaration, Superannuation docs like SSS, Philhealth and Pagibig are also accepted (I submitted screenshots of my contributions through the online app)

Hi @cebreros,
1) I think ok lang kahit hindi colored as long as original and not CTC (certified true copy)
2) You can also attach yung ITR or BIR 2316.
3) Yes also, dapat hindi siya CTC.

Here is a note from the official ACS guidelines. Hope this helps!

Please do not submit:
• Certified true copies of original documents
• Black and white scans (unless original document is issued in black and white)
• Scans of photocopies
• Low resolution scans

Thank you @Iggyyyy, yon guidelines nakita ko yan actually, alangan din ako non una kng ctc ba or hind kasi nagpa assess ako non 2017 with a positive result at puro ctc sinubmit ko, anyway, mag upload ako ng hndi naka ctc,,,another thing lng base sa guidelines need dlwang proof, so payslip at bank statement, nagbgay po ba kayo pareho nito? ang problem ko is yon iba matagal na, more than 5 years na yon previous employer ko...yon iba ko employer meron ako ITR pero same comment so meaning need ko e attach yon wlng CTC (which is a xerox copy na binigay ng employers ko before)...

You're welcome, @cebreros!

I'm still collecting my documents pa, pero plano ko isubmit lang yung payslips and BIR 2316. Based on my research, some submitted only these two, while others submitted three documents (payslips, BIR, and bank statements) and got a positive result.

SSS, Pagibig and Philhealth contributions are also accepted as superannuation docs.

For those filling-out 189 or 190 VISA Application sa Immi, I have a couple of questions:

How many payslips, ITR did you submit? All of them or just the first and last year.
Did you submit all years for Pag-ibig, SSS, and Philhealth as supplementary doc kasi di ako makapagprovide ng some of the payslips and ITR.?
Did you scan all passport pages as evidence ng travel history?
Facial Image- alam naman na sguro ng photo studio yung dimensions pag passport photo for Australia?

Thanks in advance po!

Passport photo naman samin. May bug yung pag-upload ng facial image sasabihin ng system nadedetect yung mouth na open kahit hindi naman. So you just have to try uploading it 3 times. It will be accepted sa third time.

Not needed for non-prio / non-health related occupations. Ewan ko lang sa mga nasa medical field. Up!

Edit: During medicals, hiningi pala vaccine cert ko (Singapore). Not sure if same sa Pinas.

@mathilde9 , need po ba mag submit ng proof ng residency during the visa application? Palipat lipat po kasi ako ng tinitirhan, yung contracts ng lease sa ibang years wala na akong copy.

Hindi ko maalala sa visa application stage. Sa Form80 kasi pinapalist lahat for the past 10years. Wala naman hiningi na proof.

Tapos during NSW nomination (sa case ko), nanghingi lang recent bank statements baka dun na din nila vineverify since andon mga transactions mo eh. Pati current address.

Good Day. Just a quick question. My wife and I received an e-mail yesterday from Migration Queensland inviting us to apply for Queensland State Nomination (subclass 190). Once we get invited and proceed to the visa application rounds, I saw that the fee is AUD 4,770.00 My wife will be the main applicant and I will be her dependent. My question is, is the visa fee (AUD 4,770.00) just for my wife, or will it cover me as well since I will be her dependent? Thank you.

Latest address lang ang need during invitation and visa application

Saan yan hinihingi? I can't remember being asked any sort of number from the birth cert.

189/190 CONDITION: Must not marry or enter into a de facto relationship before entry

"You must not marry or enter into a de facto relationship before entering Australia.

See what to do if your contact details have changed.

We might cancel your visa if we find out you were engaged, married or in a de facto relationship before we granted you the visa but did not tell us."

Hello, pwede ba magpa enlighten kung ano ibig sabihin nito? Like nalito ako kasi engaged ako, pero di kami ma qualify sa de facto, so pano ko ba sabihin na engaged ako?

After, for example ma grant ako as single, tapos after a year magpakasal kami, so ma question ba ito if mag apply na ng spouse/partner visa fiance ko?

Hello! I just got my grant yesterday. Ask ko lang po kung normal ba na hindi agad nagrereflect sa vevo yun visa details? Error kasi lumalabas sa akin.

Hello po!

Hingi lang po sana ako advice. Background:
Bach of Fine Arts at currently teaching art courses sa isang University. As per checking, pasok ako under 249211 Art Teacher. Hoping to apply for 190/491. Meron po ba same case sakin? Marami information sa ibang teaching disciplines, pero sa Art wala pa. Sumubok narin ako humanap sa other local/foreign subs, pero wala talaga ako makita. Baka may same case as mine? As much as gusto ko isugal at sumubok, mahal parin kasi talaga at di naman assured ang invite.

Pasensya at maraming salamat sa advices!

I wouldn't say it's cheap but for DIY EOI, you would "only" spend about 50K php or less. This is for skills/qualifications assessment and English test(once) - that's all you need for EOI lodging. I think it's worth a try if you can get high EOI score.
