depende rin sa occupation. yun mga in-demand na occupations naka-list sa skill select yung mga cut-off points. for these cases, pag 60 pts baka kailangan maghintay ng ilang invitation rounds before getting the invite. good luck!

“If you have already lodged a visa application, you should not use this service. Please wait until your case officer asks you to complete your health examinations and provides you with a HAP ID, or you will delay the processing of your visa application.
Can you please enlighten me on this? I wanna speed up the application by doing the medicals na but I don’t wanna jeopardize it if I did something wrong.
