    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

    @danyan2001us Yes sa CBD din po. I considered going din sa Ballarat pero I ended up sa CSU kasi 12 units lang yung masters and pasok din sya sa 2 years study requirement. :) Hopefully sir hindi ko na kelangan mag professional year kasi abot ko pa naman ang 60pts as long as I finish my masters.. Wag lang sana magkaron ng policy changes in the future. :)
    kami naman sinisigurado lang namin thru professional year after masters nya at sana macredit in ung work experince ni wifey ko sa cebu for 5 years.....at sana makakuha siya ng ielts na at least 7 for each band...para more than 60 points ang magiging points nya..basta sa ngayon focus muna siya sa masters niya...ang demanding pa naman daw hehe.....

    Hello to everyone! My first time to post but matagal na ko lurker in this forum. My visa has just been granted today. Thankfully walang naging aberya although waiting talaga is the worst part.

    Praying for visa grants for everyone! :)

    If anyone have any questions in applying their visas in Singapore, I'd be more than happy to help :)
    Hi ellajing! congrats! First time ko magpost pero matagal na din ako nagbabasa basa dito.. dito din ako sa singapore.. Ask ko lang ano financial requirements pag subclass 573? kakareceive ko lang ng offer letter..magbabayad narin ako ng tuition kaya sana hahanda ko na requirements for visa.. pero naguguluhan ako sa financial requirement na part.. ano mga kailangan isubmit na documents?

    Salamat ng marami in advance! Hello din sa lahat!

    @nahij hi and thanks! :) Yung school ko humingi ng financial documents before they gave me an offer pero when I lodged na my application sa VFS, wala nang kelangan bank docs as long as under streamlined visa yun application. Under SVP ka ba?

    Take note may mga Singapore specific requirements sila hinihingi (eg: IC/EP, COE, Diploma & Transcript). Ask ka lang if you have any questions. :)
