    Guys may question po ako.. eyebrow-raising question actually. :D

    ano mangyayari if di ko isasama sa application ang spouse and kids ko? made-deny ba ang application ko?

    Salamat po sa mga makakatulong. sa mga tumaas ang kilay, medyo personal reason po kasi and agreed decision na din namin ng spouse ko.

    kung may related topic, pahingi na din po ng link.

    Salamat ng madami. :)

    Hi @nfronda, thanks sa reply.

    though i need to provide my reason, they will still allow that kind of application, right? madami lang tanong but still pwede?

    i'm still yet to decide between 189 and 190 NSW SS. :)

    @hawkeye sure ako walang effect yan sa application mo kase ganyan ang nangyari sa friend ko basta you have to be very honest lang sa reasons bakit ayaw mo isama. Tatanungin ka ng CO sa email kaya explain mo dun at the same time pagawa ka ng affidavit stating the reasons.

    @hawkeye yup nasa aussie na sya ngayon at starting a new life. Mahabang kwento pero nung nag apply sya di na nya talaga sinama yung family nya kase both of them agreed na sa kanilang arrangement, marriage was on the rocks and mahirap annulment sa pinas matagal. So nag apply sya then ang unang reason pa nga daw nya ay "the rest of the family will follow after settling in Oz" kase inisip nya madaming hahanapin sa kanya, ni reply sya ng CO na ano daw ba talaga ang totoo, if they still live together or they are separated na, so sinabi na nya na separated, humingi ang co ng evidence of separation ( yung yung affidavit na pinagawa nya stating the reasons of separation and stating also na di sasama sa Aus).

    Dont worry, isesend pa rin naman nila yan or usually meron din silang pinapadala na hard copy when they return all your docs thru air21. need mo rin yung mga ibang documents mo eh pagpunta ng CFO, check mo mga requirements before you go to CFO and ipaphotocopy mo yung docs na need para walang hassle.

    Requirements for Attendance to Guidance and Counseling Program

    Two (2) valid identification cards (IDs) with photograph;
    Duly completed guidance and counseling form;
    If married, original and photocopy of marriage contract on security paper from the National Statistics Office, or Local Civil Registry Offices; or original and photocopy of marriage contract duly authenticated by the Philippine Embassy/ Consulate (if married abroad)
    Other documents as may be required by the counselors; and
    bring your hubby's passport or birth certificate, just a photocopy is ok
    Payment of P400.00 counseling fee. (not sure about the payment, i think 600 yung binayaran ko hehe :)

    Requirements for Registration

    Original and photocopy of Passport;
    Original and photocopy of visa
    *Original CFO guidance and counseling certificate
    Duly completed emigrant registration form; and
    Payment of the authorized registration fee.

    *You need to attend the counseling first before you get the emigrant sticker. After ng counseling you will have the certificate called Guidance and Counselling Certificate and wait mo nalng na malagyan ng sticker ang passport mo. Here is the schedule:

    Australia
    Mondays and Thursdays (15 slots)
    2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

    @elena05 - congrats!! just attended the CFO manila seminar last monday. nandun ako ng 6am palang, may pila na sa labas tapos fill up lang ng form then punta sa waiting area. almost 10am na nung pinapanik kami then inevaluate lang yung forms if complete, kukuhanan na din ng pic from there then may ffilupan uling form na bibigay nila. After that, submit mo sa kanila tapos balik ka ng 130pm. Isa isahin na tatawagin for one on one session with the counsellor. Madali lang un prang 2mins lang sakin, inask lang when and where i met my husband, how long have we been together etc then if okay na lahat, bayad ng 400php sa cashier sa ground floor then bigay na din passport doon.. then seminar na till almost 5pm. Pagkatapos ng seminar punta ulit sa ground floor to collect your passport na may sticker na and guidance counselling cert na naka-attach. Just present your receipt to them upon release then okay na :)
