Want to clarify on few things po:
1. Once I submit my application to EA, next thing to expect is an acknowledgment letter thru mail or email lang?
2. After acknowledged na, f they want more supporting docs, how to provide? Mail pa din? My worry is makadagdag ito sa TAT
3. Will it help if I use Sydney address ng bro-n-law ko instead of my Singapore mailing address?
4. What are the common grounds na negative ang assessment results based sa may experience na po dito na na-reject ang application?
Thanks po.

Thanks so much. Iyong point sytem sa EA wrt Age is based sa pag-acknowledge nila sa docs ko? Or based on when? Baka kasi lumampas sa age bracket at minus 5 points. Huhuhu

Nope! Your assessing officer will email you to suggest an ANZSCO job code that will fit your Job Description and what you wrote in your Career Episodes (That is why your what you'll write in your Career Episodes is very important).
You can either accept the suggestion or submit more evidence that you can fullfil the ANZSCO code you nominated for yourself. Most of the time EA will require you to submit new sets of career episodes and the summary page of your CE.
Di ka na po sisingilin ng additional fees.

At wala dagdag bayad din f require sila other docs to satisfy ur originally claimed job code. The consequence lang yata is instead of 16 weeks TAT, magiging mas matagal na if may additional requirements pa sila. At syempre cost sa pagpapadala ng additional docs.
Tama po ba?
