Visa Application Timeline

JClem · March 2012

Congrats!

Pa-schedule na agad si hubby ng IELTS. By the way, hindi po ba pwede yung certification sa school lang na english yung medium of instruction?

Anyway, pag na-complete mo na additional requirements ni CO, wala pang one week makakakuha na kayo ng grant notification. God bless!

Hi Guys,

Correct nga kayo. Finorward na nung agent namin yung letter from our CO. Medical/PCCs and Husband's IELTS exam requests. Sabi ng agent required lang daw si hubby na mag-overall band score na 5.

I am super duper happy. Ito na yung inaantay ko. Yung ma-allocate sa CO. More prayers pa para maging smooth ang medical and all other requirements.

God is really good.

@JClem & RClem, congratulations! God is indeed good.
@chiffonscarf, 40k AUD po. given na dalawa dependents ko (wife & kid). Depende po kasi yung amt sa # of pax for migration. Not sure if ok to declare lesser amt than what is recommended, parang assurance kasi ng Oz govt na self-sustaining yung new migrants pagdating dun. Cheers!

@brent: That big amount ba ang dinala mo at pinakita on bank statement? In my case of which under SS ACT 176 yung declaration of financial capacity lang at sa form 1276 wala naman dun proof of fund. Please correct me if i am wrong. Good cheers!

@chiffonscarf: Declaration pa lang naman po yun based sa recommended funds sa SS. Yes, you're right on, mate!

@JClem and @RClem, congrats sa inyo! parang kailan lang ang daming questions and worries, ayan hawak niyo na ang sagot! Congrats again and God bless.

mgpreclaro · March 2012

Thanks @JClem.

Naku hindi ko natanong ito sa agent namin. Ok na din kasi napa-schedule ko na si hubby for IELTS sa May 12. Ito lang yung medyo magpapatagal. Kasi wala ng slot ng April. Yung medical namin nakaschedule na din. Mabuti nga nakakuha na kami ng NBI clearance last month at least bawas na yun sa iisipin ko.

Sana nga within one week once submitted na lahat ng results eh mabigyan na kami ng visa grant. Di bale antay lang kami. In God's perfect time.

Congrats!

God bless!

Hi everyone! My first post sa site. I have been reading posts for the past week while waiting for my visa to be approved. Anyway here's my timeline. Looks like ambilis ng processing ngayon.

3/23/2012 - Online application
3/23/2012 - Medical (x-ray) at Nationwide Makati
3/28/2012- Medical results received (Tip lang po if your medicals are not uploaded at a reasonable amount of time try calling Nationwide so they can look at your records)
3/28/2012- Employee Nomination Approved
3/29/2012- Visa Granted!

My work will be in Perth CBD. Sino po nagpaparent ng room? Interested to stay with fellow kababayans.

JClem · March 2012

Congratulations @shutter_bug!

Mabilis talaga ang employee nomination. I think it's P1 or P2. I hope you don't mind sharing how did you find an employer sponsorship para makatulong din sa ibang forumers.

Hi to all! I my 175 application on June 29, 2011. I was already notified to proceed with police clearance and medicals last March 20. Police Clearance (NBI) were already secured. I scheduled our medicals last Mar20, however, hindi kami natuloy kasi natakot ako dahil consistent na mataas ang BP ni misis (140/100) at hindi talaga bumababa dun. What we did was nagpaconsult na lang muna kami that day sa Manila Doctors. The doctor said that my wife is hypertensive indeed and binigyan siya ng maintenance drug for 2 weeks and was advised to go on diet and exercise. Pina-further lab test ko na rin sya (Creatinine, Lipid profile, cholesterol etc) and the results will be evaluated by the doctor today.

Nakausap ko na rin agent ko about the situation and told me na we don't have to worry about the hypertension of my wife coz it won't affect the decision on my visa. Ang tinitingnan lang daw sa medical are HIV, TB and Hepa. Hypertension daw is acceptable so long as may maintenance drugs ka nang iniinom.

Any inputs from you guys will be highly appreciated.. Thanks in advance!

JClem · March 2012

Hi @sevdale, your agent is correct. Don't worry, hindi magiging cause ng visa rejection yung hypertension. As long as mapakita nyo na controllable sya which is through the doctor's certificate and yung prescriptions ng maintenance drug nya and result ng ibang lab test. Dalhin nyo sya on your medical schedule. Meron kayong kaparehong case sa expatforum.com. Husband naman nya yung hypertensive and since may certification kay doctor na controllable, naapprove naman visa nila.

God bless! Balitaan mo kami. See you in AU!

isa lang po mag apply tapos for the entire family na po un, pero better kung pati spouse may assessment and IELTS para you can claim 5 points sa partner skills..

Nag claim ba kayo ng points para sa hubby mo? ksi kung di naman tama si JLEM certification lng pwede na. Mahal din kumuha ng IELTS at sayang din ang time.

Don't worry di naman sila mahigipit pag may hypertension. Ang husband ko sya ang main applicant declare namin. pinag submit lang kami ng medical clearance & latest ECG. Dinagdag lng namin ang laboratory test nya.
