    Hi guys. Pwede po ba mag apply for Medicare while still offshore? I have been granted po pala ng PR Visa 190. Thank you po

    Pagdating mo ayan agad ang unahin mo Medicare at Centrelink. Yung medicare 1 month bago dumating sa address mo yung card and tips pala sa fillup ng form kung dalawa yung name mo like "Dodong Bangbang" may nakasulat jan sa form ng medicare na Name1 at Name2 so ang ilalagay mo sa name1 is Dodong and name2 is Bangbang. Ang ginawa kasi namin nun is nilagay namin yung middle name sa Name 2. Tips lang naman sana makatulong. Goodluck po๐Ÿ˜Š

    How about po yung Middle Name (Mother's Surname)? Need pa po ba ilagay yun if 2 yung given names? For example po full name is Victor Ricardo Dalisay Magtanggol :D :D

    Given Name(s): Victor Ricardo
    Middle Name: Dalisay
    Surname: Magtanggol

    Pano po kaya pag ganyan?

    Nung nag-apply kami sa Medicare noon, nilagay ko sa enrollment form sa FIRST GIVEN NAME part 'yung dalawa kong first names, then sa SECOND GIVEN NAME naman 'yung middle name ko. Ginawa ko lang consistent sa lahat ng inapplyan ko dito sa Australia. Kapag walang option na SECOND GIVEN NAME or MIDDLE NAME sa mga applications, nilalagay ko lang din sa FIRST NAME 'yung dalawa kong first names and middle name. Eto lang 'yung ginawa ko, not saying na gayahin mo :P Gusto ko lang talaga maging consistent sa details na nakalagay sa PH passport ko. Haha pero wala naman akong naging problema sa mga applications namin.

    Ganyan din yung ginawa namin nung una pero ayun nga hindi nila inaaccept yung ganong format, tapos inulit namin yung pag apply ng medicare eh need namin ng medicare nun kasi buntis ang asawa ko tapos dumeretcho kami sa Services Australia para humingi ng temporary medicare card habang wala pang naiissue.

    Good luck sa mga magbibigmove. Mejo malamig na ang June ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Pano po kaya pag ganyan?

    Ganito po ilalagay nyo
    1st name Victor
    2nd name Ricardo
    Surname Magtanggol

    No need ilagay ang middle name.

    kasi dati ang ginawa ko
    1st name Victor Ricardo
    2nd name Dalisay
    Surname Magtanggol

    Kaya nadelay yung medicare namin. Ito pa isang trick, kunwari wala pa yung medicare nyo punta kayo sa services australia para humingi ng temporary medicare para atleast magamit nyo yun medicare ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Noted po dito, ganto din po gagawin ko. Thanks din po sa tricks. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

    I see po. I think kaya po di inaccept kasi po sa passport natin ang nakalagay specifically "Given Name(s)" and "Middle Name". Then sa form ni Medicare specific na "First GIVEN name" and "Second GIVEN name" ang nakalagay.

    Hello!! My BM is on April. I've been trying to apply for jobs while offshore. But my phone number is still based in the philippines. Can I buy an esim from australia then activate it here while offshore? Para lang may local number na ko then I can put it in my contact details. Naka secure na din ako ng apartment and may address na ko na mailalagay.

    My understanding is dapat ma convert mo sya with in that period if you are planning to stay in Australia longer than that period. And, pag lumagpas ka don sa given period at hindi mo parin na convert para hindi na sya valid.

    Check mo nalang din sa website ng state na plan mo mag pa convert ng license.

    Pwede po mag pa convert kahit wala kang sariling car. Not sure sa experience ng iba, pero ang experience ko po is kumuha ako ng instructor prior to actual exam. Kinuha ko po sa service nung instructor is ksama yun rent nung car nya during exam and kasama ko din yung instructor habang nag eexam.

    Btw, sa Victoria po to.

    Hindi ba pwede gamitin muna yung intl driving permit (kung meron)? Pang initial period muna. Six months din yun magagamit, then saka mag convert to australian driving license. Depende sa state yung initial period.

    Mashare ko lang at WAG NA WAG NYONG GAGAWIN ANG GINAWA NAMIN HAHAHAHA
    So nasa regional kami tapos yung asawa ko is walang knowledge sa driving, so tinuruan ko xa ng mga basic lang tutal automatic naman. After nyang mag exam ng computer exam meron na xa L license. Pinag ddrive ko xa papunta at pauwi ng trabaho nya para masanay kaya ngayon Red P na xa. Guys bawal mag drive ng naka L ng solo need ng full license KAYA WAG NYONG GAGAGYAHIN ANG GINAWA NAMIN. hahahahahha

    My understanding is dapat ma convert mo sya with in that period if you are planning to stay in Australia longer than that period. And, pag lumagpas ka don sa given period at hindi mo parin na convert para hindi na sya valid.

    Check mo nalang din sa website ng state na plan mo mag pa convert ng license.

    Thank you po for providing the initial cost. Malaki laki din pala. Though plan ko nga po sa Pinoy na driving instructor baka mas mura. Hahaha.

    Also, mahirap po ba adjustment from left hand to right hand drive? Mga around 3-4 years na din po ako driving ng automatic dito sa pinas pero di sya daily. Lol

    Isa lang naman ang bilin ko sa asawa ko eh WAG KANG BABANGGA hahahaha. Kaya instead na $70 per session ang practice nya edi libre na hahaha pero xempre before xa mag driving exam nagpabbook pa xa sa driving instructor para makita kung kaya na ba mag exam or need pa ng improvement. Siguro ayun din ang kagandahan ng nasa Regional eh konti ng sasakyan kaya makakapag practice ka talaga kahit walang lisensya haha. Pero hindi ito advisable ah? may mga pinoy akong kilala PR na wala din drivers license dito wag nyong tutularan yun.

    Ask ko lang po what is the process kung sakaling hindi mo mapapalitan yung Driverโ€™s license mo within 3 months na nagland ka sa Australia?

    Like magiiba po ba? Or you can still use it to get a license po?

    My understanding is dapat ma convert mo sya with in that period if you are planning to stay in Australia longer than that period. And, pag lumagpas ka don sa given period at hindi mo parin na convert para hindi na sya valid.

    Check mo nalang din sa website ng state na plan mo mag pa convert ng license.

    Oof. So another thing to watch out pala. Wala kasi ako plan bumili agad ng car pwede pa din ba ako makapagpaconvert ng driverโ€™s license like do they have cars I can use to take the exam?

    Pwede po mag pa convert kahit wala kang sariling car. Not sure sa experience ng iba, pero ang experience ko po is kumuha ako ng instructor prior to actual exam. Kinuha ko po sa service nung instructor is ksama yun rent nung car nya during exam and kasama ko din yung instructor habang nag eexam.

    Btw, sa Victoria po to.

    magkano po yung bayad nyo kasama instructor and rent sa car?

    I remember po mga nasa 600 AUD po binayad ko dati sa 6 hrs session with exam (30 mins ata yung exam so kasama din sya don sa 6 hrs ). Pwede po kayo mag check sa google sa rate don sa lugar na plan nyo mag exam. Normal po sa AU yung mga driving instructor.

    Thank you po for providing the initial cost. Malaki laki din pala. Though plan ko nga po sa Pinoy na driving instructor baka mas mura. Hahaha.

    Also, mahirap po ba adjustment from left hand to right hand drive? Mga around 3-4 years na din po ako driving ng automatic dito sa pinas pero di sya daily. Lol

    Pinoy din yung instructor na kinuha ko para madali kausap at nakatawad kahit papano. hehe

    Ndi ko sure, ndi po ako nag dridrive sa pinas.

    God is good all the time!
