    @pepper huh. grabe naman. natatakot na ako ah. maliit lang showmoney ko atsaka sa sponsors ko lang ako bumawi, 3 sponsors ko, with one having an annual income of 110K, 60K and 45K USD . Sponsors provided the latest bank statement, proof of income in the form of an employment certificate indicated with salary rate and also income tax returns - together with affidavit of support. Bukas din ang aking judgement day. OK lang kaya yun?

    I'm sorry to hear na ganun. Hindi grant dumating, salungat sa sinabi ko. :(

    Ano nga pala email sa inyo nang DIAC? Yung last?

    Wala ako agent up to now. Someone I know used AMS instead of IDP. Same deal walang bayad. I am thinking na gamitin ko na lang sila (AMS) para ma advise ng mabuti sa pag pass ng papers. Nung kayo ba mg fill up ng eCoE request binigay nyo ba details ng agent nyo?

    @skittles04 you are welcome po. prompt ngayon kasi nag aantay din ako ma'am me magka grant. Natatakot na ako pareho kasi kami nang case ni pepper except for the referred medical.sure ma'am, hehe, ikaw lang ba yung pupunta? or may relatives kayo dun sa Darwin?

    @pepper kinakabahan na talaga ako kasi nag ask ang school nang extension letter. I mentioned befre na sabi nang isang friend na pag nag ask ang DIAC nito, good as OK na. same as mine, they asked for an ext letter. hindi kaya nila dinidelay nalang ang grant kasi wala pang decision? hmmm. ano ba to. natagalan kana masyado tapos yan pa mangyayari. frucking frustrating and my heart is racing!

    @ten2six, meron kang appointing form na fifillupan na ina apppoint mo ang agent mo to assist you. dun mo ilalagay ang details. Sa embassy na form to, not sure sa acceptance form.

    @tenseako Yup sama ang sat and sun. Heheh. Ginoogle ko lang po "referred medicals" pero yung mga number of days nang mga grantees na na refer ang meds...ginamitan ko nang excel. walang magawa eh. so ayun dinagdagan ko stress ko.

    @pepper ma'am don't lose hope po. hndi po aalis ang australia if ma deny tayo. sa medicals nga merong worst na nagyari daw, nalaman na may TB, nag treat nang 6 mos, tapos matagal dini hinintay pero ssa kalaunan nakalipad rin.

    @maliboo @amedina ah ok. pero if granted earlier, mag-eexpire din ba earlier? or ang validity ng visa is until the end of school talaga regardless of when the visa was approved?

    anak nang butanding! grant na yan. Sabi nga nila PLEASED sila. Haha. Kung denied yan sasabihin WE ARE NOT PLEASED. LOL. Mahilig talaga sa crunch time tong mga taga DIAC. May email sa yo ang DIAC? please look at the date sa eVISA mo yung PDF attachment ha at pls post dito ang actual date sa VISA if ok lang sayo.. Para malaman namin kung gano katagal ang VISA grant to dispatch. CONGRATS!!!
    @KG2 God bless sayo..this is the day na sa decision ng visa mo..
    Thank you! taga Negros po ako ma'am. Pero nakapagtrabaho ako sa Cebu dati. :) Today decision pero ang dispatch ano kaya? (Confident na madidispatch ano?) haha.
    @KG2 ACU sydney po. was backreading a while ago. nabasa ko about you wife's DM. how did you declare it sa application form? diagnosis lang ba? i have multinodular non-toxic goiter kasi. i'm not sure to what extent ang isusulat ko about my condition. and, did you attach supporting docs? thanks.
    Nasa application form po ma'am, merong section dun na idedeclare mo ang existing health condition niyo. Tingnan niyo din mam sa link ko yung instruction sa panel physician. Yung PDF, dun kayo kumuha nang idea. Wala naman po kaming inatach na document mam. Basta dineclare lang namin na may DMII and ang meds. Nilagay ko lang "wife has diabetes mellitus type II and is taking metformin as maintenance medication" :)
