Mate; that is the outline of Accounting Theory as per CPAA - the same was used by my wife back in 2012 to map with her core subjects back in college...

To some of you who may need help re: Accounting Theory and CPAA, you may want to scroll a few convos and pages back. If not, you can ask me here. I suggest you read and read some more before actually submitting your documents. As you can see sa timeline ko, I've pretty much spent a long time just getting a positive assessment from CPAA. But don't wanna say it's a waste, I learned a lot. Basta message lang kayo and I'll be really glad to help.
God bless us all

So I’m preparing to prepare to lodge my VISA once I get invited and have some questions that may have been already answered in the past. Pasensya na if itatanong ko na naman ulit.
1. What documents do I have to prepare as early as now? I’m planning to get my NBI/PCC already by next week. Can I upload that already when I lodge my VISA?
2. What uploading tool do I use in the application/visa lodging – I read somewhere about ImmiAccount. How different is that from the Skillselect account used in submitting EOI? Should I transfer to that upon receipt of the invitation?
3. In terms of VISA payment, do you have options of splitting costs? Like 2 credit cards to use or a combination of bank draft and credit card – is that even feasible?
4. When do you suggest I get my medical tests? I’m positive I’m gonna be able to process my VISA within the next 12 months so was wondering if taking the medical test in advance prior to the CO advice will speed up the grant.
Any help you would extend is greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
