  @piglet24 - meron po yatang form na kaialngan i-print.. check mo sa online visa application mo.. something like "generate health exam..."...
  
  and then of course, make sure na magpa-schedule kayo sa clinic, kailangan nila ang reference number ng visa applciation nyo..

  @piglet24, yup, that's the rate that we paid.... for all of us 4, I have paid Dhs 2,425... that's for 3 adults and 1 child. mas mababa ang cost pag child kasi wala silang blood test, urine at x-ray lang.

  Hello po sa lahat!
  
  Nandito po kami sa UAE at na-grant na po yung visa 189 namin. Plano po namin na mag-initial entry this coming November at mag-stay lang for 1 week sa Sydney. Kailangan pa ba namin na umuwi nang Pinas para mag-PDOS? or Pwede ba na dumiritso na kami from UAE to AU?

  @ethan_andrew pwede na po kayo dumerecho ng Au.... but in case na uuwi kayo ng pinas in the near future at yun ang magiging point of exit nyo, irerequire po kayo ng CFO stamp sa immigration.

  @goreo, requirement yun ng immigration sa Phils. san ba kayo galing ng nag initial entry kayo? if sa pinas ka lalabas, definitely if you are on a PR visa, immigration officer will ask for the stamp. and for you to get the stamp, you should visit their office in manila and attend the pre departure orientation seminar. if you are holding provisional or temporary visa, then no need na to get the stamp.

  @jvframos, hehe baka sinwerte kami at di na kami hinanapan sa immigration sa atin. Galing kami ng pinas nun and di naman kami nagPDOS and wala talaga kami sticker ng CFO sa passport namin. buti na lang pala nakalusot kami.. Pero now that i know, kukuha na kami nyan next time. Thanks!

  how do we know if we claimed incorrect points?

  its very important na sa EOI submission nyo, na double check nyo lahat ng points..
  at lahat ng claimed points nyo, eh may proof/documents kayo.
  
  example, baka di nyo napansin na napagclaim pala kayo ng AU education, eh hindi nmn kayo nag-aral sa AU... maraming beses na nangyari yan sa iba..
  
  pagkabayad at pagdating ng CO, hinahanap ng diploma from AU..
  so kung wala kang diploma, visa denied agad un.. sayang pera..
  kasi you were invited to apply for visa, based on your claimed points..
  tapos in the end hindi naman pala tama..
  
  so, to answer your question, you should know from the beginning...
  kung hindi mo alam, it's too late.. ung CO na ang magsasabi sa inyo..

  Hi po, I'm new here ...I just registered. Ask ko lang po, Mag start palang po kase ako mag compile ng documents ko for assessment direct online. Is it necessary po ba na i-pa notary sa lawyer and mga documents ko kaso wala ako ako makita na nag nonotary dito sa Abu Dhabi. Please advice po. Thanks

  Hello! just new here sa forum na to. nice to read your comments specially regarding sa mga reasons nyo why you have decided to migrate sa Australia. nakaka uplift ng spirit na ituloy na naming mag for good agad sa OZ. Visa grant na rin kami and planning to have our initial entry sa September. sa Sydney ang entry point namin dahil dun nakabase mostly of our friends. Sa mga nasa OZ na, san po ba mas magandang magsettle- Melbourne or Sydney? ano po mga dinala nyong mga gamit dun from Dubai? thanks in advance po for your replies...Happy Easter!
