    Usually hindi sila nagbibigay ng access sa skillselect EOIs mo. Purpose of this i guess is para sa email add nila mareceive yung invitation emails. Easier tracking for them.

    Pwede mo irequest yung confirmation nalang. Meron PDF nun pagkasubmit eh-for you to verify din na tama yung details mo that they submitted.

    Alam ko pagka bayad mag rereflect na agad sa system yung hap id para sa medical. As for nbi clearance, i-n-upload ko yung samin before pa mag lodge. Kulitin mo nalang siguro yung agent mo.

    2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
    2022 Started working in SG, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again. Working in SG was a huge factor for us pushing through because we are now confident that we can afford the cost of migration process.
    ---2023---
    2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube videos 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 reaching out 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 with low EOI score. Contunued collecting SoS from my past companies cause we realized that 10 points for skilled partner would be a huge difference because of state preference. 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 cause now, I could also submit EOI as the main applicant.

    As a MARA agent myself, I advise my clients to best wait until we receive the s56 letter from the case officer because by this time, they have verified all documents and they just need to check character and health clearances. A matter of approx 2-3 months na lang to wait for decision after clearances have been provided. Police and medical certs are time sensitive documents. They are only valid for 12 months so timing is essential when providing these.

    May nabasa ako, mostly daw kasi ng mga naiinvite for 491 nitong fiscal year is nasa priority occupation kaya ganyan kabilis yung average. Marami parin ako nakikita sa fb na 491 nagrereklamo kasi nearing 2 years or + na yung application nila.

    2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
    2022 Started working in SG, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again. Working in SG was a huge factor for us pushing through because we are now confident that we can afford the cost of migration process.

    2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube videos 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 reaching out 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.

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 cause now, I could also submit EOI as the main applicant.

    Hindi parin nila binabago yung sa global processing times. Baka po malapit na kayo.

    Ako rin inip na kahit nasa kalahati palang kami ng 190 average processing times. Parang naka pause yung life mo kasi may inaantay ka. Sobrang tagal ng agony. Kahit alam mong may foothold ka na, kakainin parin ng anxiety hanggat wala pang result. Twing may nababasa ako sa net, napapa check ako sa application namin kung tama nga ba yung nailagay at na upload ko haha.

    491 applicant here- WAiting for Grant din, ang ginawa ko this past 4 months since lodgement every monday lang ako nagchecheck anything related sa immigration. Gumawa ako ng separate facebook account kasi punong puno ng visa group discussion yung fb account ko. Every monday exicted ako kasi halos kalahating araw nagbabasa ako through facebook, pinoyau, subreddits, and WA group.

    Gumawa ako ng 4 na folder sa google drive divided into Jobs, Accommodation, Budget Allocation, and First things to do upon landing. Pag may nakita akong helpful tip or resource, nilalagay ko sa respective folder.

    Dahan dahan kong binabalikan yung buhay ko bago ako nagsimula sa australian dream na to. Kasi honestly, nung nagsimula ako sa pag process nito halos makalimutan ko na lahat ng bagay na nagpasaya sakin.

    Kapit lang at nasa Verse 3a palang tayo ng Ecclesiastes 3:3 "a time to kill and a time to heal".

    @CantThinkAnyUserName @Roberto21 @Zion @marav0318 @2Au dadating na din yang grants niyo soon.

    I know the anxiety and mahirap talaga. Maski ako at some point, I avoided stuff that will remind me of my au visa journey. Pero nung dumating yung grant, it was all worth it. Ngayon, no looking back. Best decision ever and found my work-life balance here. Basta prepare yourself for the life you've been praying for. Goodluck sa inyo!

    Good Day! May question po ako. Nung nagpasa po kayo ng bank statement, is it in Php or AUD?

    Para saan po ito? for visa application?
