    question, kelan ang pinaka ok na month pumunta dyan at maghanap ng work? From what I've gathered before, Nov-Dec are slow months at di muna sila nag hire dahil sa holidays. Tama ba? So dapat, mga sept or oct?

    @bookworm - as long as nasa processing na ung sponsorship mo i think it should be ok. ako nga ngayon pa lang nagpasa ng for verification. I would send an email later on at tatanungin ko kung anong mangyayari but praying na am right na as long as submitted everything before the deadline then it should be ok.

    @bookworm - try mo to ask ung vetassess kung pwede maextend ung validity ng skills assessment mo. baka naman umabot sa lahat, I mean baka sakto lang ung out ng SS mo pati DIAC invitation then accept mo agad para ma-process before ma expire...pero better check na rin kung pwede pa extend or kung merong renewal.

    oks na ung sa verification, took them 1 1/2 day...

    @bookworm - yep out na sa list pero ang effective date is 24 Feb. Bale na beat ko ung deadline kasi nakapag submit naman ako before na nag take effect ung bagong listing nila.

    Na-verify ung job ads na sinubmit ko nung 18 Feb then they gave me a month to submit for ACT nomination...

    6-8 weeks ung ACT nomination di ba? wala pa naman atang 6-8 weeks ung SS request mo. wait wait lang...para makaipon pa ng pangbayad.

    hello po. realistically po i guess nobody can answer your question...antabayan nio na lang po by that time. medyo nakakaschock din kasi parang ang bilis nilang magupdate this time ung last year more than a year bago naglabas ng update which is effective nung Aug.

    Try to add po ung FB page nila Canberra Your Future. regular ung updates nila dun...ung website kasi nila not unless na regular mong bibisitahin dun lang makakakita ng updates.

    kung meron po kayong kamag-anak pwede pa po ata kahit closed na o merong job offer. well hopefully magopen ung occupation nio ulit. all the best po.
