Hello po. Ask ko lang po kung anong ginamit niyong payment method sa pagsubmit ng visa application? Tried using different debit cards (visa) pero lahat po "payment failed declined". Maraming salamat po!

Hi. Thank you po sa pagsagot. In my case po, natry ko rin po magincrease ng limit sa UB pero failed parin po. Tried UB, LBP, BPI, BDO debit cards po kagabi pero failed po lahat.
UPDATE: Ngayon lang po, I tried using Maya card, sumakses po ang payment ko. Yehey.

Congrats nag success na yung payment mo! I've paid using Security Bank debit pero nag request pa ko to increase limit. IIRC 100k PHP yung limit daily tapos ginawang 500k PHP temporarily para mag push yung transaction.

Hello, question lang po sana may makahelp. Nakakuha na po kasi ako ng COE sa current company ko and nakaformat na rin po ung COE based sa EA requirement. Ngayon po ay nakreceive ako ng job offer sa ibang company. Tingin nyo po ba magpasa na ako ng application sa EA before pa ko magpasa ng resignation letter or okay lang po ba kahit nakalipat na ko ng ibang company then saka pa lang ako magpaskills assessment? Kumpleto naman na po kasi ako ng requirements kaso iniiisip ko kasi baka matagalan po ung EA sa assessment and kung magmamatter po ba syempre sa COE ko is puro "currently" pa ung nakalagay pero pag nagresign po ako tas vinerify nila baka po magkaproblema. Manghingi na lang po ba ako ng bagong COE pagkaresign ko?

Schools
^ check nyo po kung anong section nung school nyo.
Kapag level 2 or 3 kasi equivalent lang sya ng diploma(10pts).
kapag section 1 school ka, pwede na bachelors. kung prc passer ka, bachelors din regardless kung anong school section.(15 pts)
Wala akong naeencounter na level 2/3 na hindi nag board kaya di ko sure kung pano gagawin if ever. (eto ay kapag ikaw ang primary applicant)
Kung pang dagdag sa points ni misis yung habol mo, basta positive yung outcome ng assessment mo okay na yun. not sure lang para sa cpaa kung may weight yung school section.

2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
2022 Started working in Singapore, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again.
2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube video explaining permanent residence can be applied offshore(DIY)
2023 Oct 30: Started Collecting Documents. This took us so long because we are hesitating and overthinking about making contact to our previous employers. We thought we should just do a statutory declaration but fortunately we talked to our friends who are also planning their migration and helped us understand that its easy to request for it.

2024 July : I delayed getting my Vetasses in the hopes of saving the fee if my husband got the invite even with low eoi score(who am I kidding?). Contunued collecting SoS from my past companies cause we realized that 10 points for skilled partner is a huge difference. Initially, I was looking to just submit with only 1 work experience cause my other companies are a bit hassle to deal with but thank God I went throught all the stress and collected them all(pokemon?)

Hello, all. Normal po ba na matagal dumating yung request for biometrics? Malapit na mag two months after ko mag-lodge at wala pa ring request. Akala ko sabay sila ng health assessment pero yung request for health assessment lang yung lumitaw sa aking account the day na nag-lodge ako. Salamat po sa makakatulong.

Question, knowing na ung process for visa grant ng 190 is 16-21 months, pwede bang idelay muna yung medical exam? Like siguro after 6 months after mag lodge?
May nababsa kasi ako sa ibang fb group na dapat daw within 28 days once na receive ung HAP ID and health checklist email. Kaso diba automatic kasi un marereceive pagkodge ng visa

Mas okay kung mag medical na agad. Yung mga recent na na grant, lagpas 12 months din naman yung application nila, di naman lahat pinag remedical. yung iba lang siguro na mejo special case. Isa pa, yung iba kong nabasa na may something na nakita sa medical nila kaya nagpagaling muna bago na clear sa medical, at least meron silang 1 year para magpagamot.
Nominated Skill: 312111
Target Visa: Subclass 190-OFFSHORE
Target State: VIC/WA/NSW(got NSW invite)
2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
2022 Started working in Singapore, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again.
2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube video explaining permanent residence can be applied offshore(DIY)
2023 Oct 30: Started Collecting Documents. This took us so long because we are hesitating and overthinking about making contact to our previous employers. We thought we should just do a statutory declaration but fortunately we talked to our friends who are also planning their migration and helped us understand that its easy to request for it.

2024 July : I delayed getting my Vetasses in the hopes of saving the fee if my husband got the invite even with low eoi score(who am I kidding?). Contunued collecting SoS from my past companies cause we realized that 10 points for skilled partner is a huge difference. Initially, I was looking to just submit with only 1 work experience cause my other companies are a bit hassle to deal with but thank God I went throught all the stress and collected them all(pokemon?)
