"I have already updated (my name) passport details in our systems but unfortunately passport number (my new passport number) is not being picked up in VEVO. I sought assistance from our Client Service Operations to sort this out.
Unfortunately, a grant notification will be not be reissued to reflect his renewed passport. The grant notification issued earlier is suffice to present to the Immigration upon entry to Australia. Please advise (my name) to bring with him relevant travel documents such as passport (old and new) and grant notification.
In the meantime, I am waiting for a response from our Client Service Operations regarding our query on updating his passport details in VEVO. I’ll keep you updated."
@nalooka, ganyan na ganyan nga ang plano ko, magprint ng email ng CO about my passport change. kasi kinakabahan din ako bakit yung old passport ang nasa VEVO. although hindi ako sure kung VEVO ba ang gamit nilang pag-verify o ibang application baka may web-based iteration ng Regional Movements Alert System (RMAS). Anyway, nung nag-attend ka ng PDOS sa CFO, ano ang nilagyan nila ng label, yung old passport mo o yung new passport? kasi magpi-PDOS ako bukas, dadalhin ko na lang yung old at new passport, pati na rin yung VISA Grant Notice at yung email ng CO na napalitan na yung passport details ko.
