    Bank statements were produced to show proof of salary I guess... I have not heard of anyone being asked dahil sa proof of funds.

    Hello! with regards to the NBI Clearance, is it okay to secure it ahead even before visa lodging?

    Hello! with regards to the NBI Clearance, is it okay to secure it ahead even before visa lodging?
    it will affect your IED-initial entry date.
    Police clearance and medical exam are valid for 1 year..

    example:
    -kmuha ka ng NBI clearance Jan 2013 (so ang validity nyan as per DIAC will be until Dec 2013)..
    -nag lodge ka ng visa at naapproved Nov 2013...
    -so ang magiging entry date requirement mo will be Dec 2013 (dahil sa expiration ng NBI mo).. you will only have 1 month to prepare...

    gets?

    Thanks for the info Guys!
    Tanong ko lang kung saan pwede magpa certify ng docs. Pwede na ba kahit sa abogado lang? Or meron ba talaga specific body to certify my documents.

    Thanks a lot!

    Hi all, just a quick question. I've worked for 2 companies already:

    - a water utilities company (1y,8mo)
    - a distinguished fastfood chain (1y,7mo and counting)

    I'm an Industrial Engineering graduate from what I assume is a section 1 school based from the comments here. The water utilities job was more of management work while the fastfood one focuses on process improvement (IE-related). My question is, would the experience in the water utilities company, NOT be counted towards the related work experience? I am asking so that I would have a general idea on when to start an application. Thank you very much and God bless to all!
