    Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)

    The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

    @KG2 dun po ako ng.ask sa enquiry form. Hehe eto po ung laman ng enquiry ko.

    I know that my application is still within the service standard time
    provided for processing, but I would like to ask an update regarding the
    application.

    I will be commencing on 15 July2013 that will be this coming Monday. I
    already asked an extension from the school, but they only give me till the
    15th to be there.

    Thank you for looking into my documents.
    Hoping for a feedback.

    More power and God bless!


    Ng.ask pa po ako sa IDP on what's the best thing to do whether to submit the late arrival letter or defer my application and send an updated COE for 2014 to the embassy.

    @thorVIRUS - 22 siguro ako mag dedefer, I still have to close my bank account if the grant arrives. usually yung bank dapat i-inform ko pa dapat kasi dollar account, wala silang dollar na stock. and a lot of prepping also. I still dont have a place to stay yet. So sana I was hoping I'd be granted a VISA 2 weeks prior sa commencement para ma iron out ko ang mga dapat asikasuhin.
