About EA assessment, you may refer to this thread. Marami tayong mga engineers dito na makakasagot ng iyong mga katanungan. As for certifying docs, pina-Seen and Noted ko yun sa akin sa consulate. 100 per document and three days processing time. Ku…

Hi @piglet24. The Australian visa application procedure can be summed down in three four easy steps. (1) Skills assessment (in your case, read and understand everything found in the EA website. (2) IELTS exam (read and understand everything found …

My aunts would say that racism is subtly felt towards the bogans and the aborigines. Sila raw kasi yung mga pasaway na tamad at lasenggero (siga sa daan parang jeprox). I'd like to hear from those na mga nakatira na doon kung may racism towards immi…

@LittleBoyBlue Baligtad naman ang situation ko - Nakakapag-upload ako sa ecom nang walang problema, pero wala pa akong acknowledgment letter and Application Received pa rin ang status (by now dapat In Progress na yun). Try mong i-send documents mo s…

You can indicate Yes without updating your EOI. In-update ko lang yung sa akin noong na-receive ko na yung SS approval (I changed "All state" to "Victoria").

@dancingmama I assume it depends kung kailan ang go signal ng diac for the next round. Inabot pa rin ng kasi two weeks before I got invited. Pero send the EOI asap malay mo ma-receive mo na yung invite agad-agad now na!

Hello mga kabayan. May share lang ako re: NBI clearance. Ang usual procedure ay (1) Humingi ng NBI application card sa Consulate sa Al Qusais (free), (2) Punta sa Dubai CID opposite Al Mulla Plaza for fingerprinting (110AED), (3) The following day, …

@dancingmama Pamilyar ang timeline mo ateng. Congratulations ngayon pa lang. Hirap daw makapasa ang IT ngayon sa Victoria.

in EOI club Comment by Metaform September 2012
I dont think it's a big deal, really. Especially when it says there it's not a compulsory requirement. Just be honest and say Yes. Lemme guess, nanghihinayang kang baguhin yung EOI mo kasi bababa yung ranking mo?

@nylram_1981 Pareho tayo ng na-receive teh. Parang wala pa rin namang nagkaka-CO na 190 kahit sa kabilang forum so medyo di muna ako aasa.

@lock_code2004 pagkabayad sa application, may system-generated email which contains the TRN(na-receive ko ito) followed by a separate acknowledgment letter na may attached pdf files as mentioned by olan. Iba pa rin yung CO notification. So nag-ema…

in Summary - State Sponsorship Requirements in prep for Visa 176 Comment by Metaform September 2012
@wynx ilagay mo lang yung required funds nila (30k for single applicants, 35k for couples, 40 for a family of three, so on). Hindi naman sila humihingi ng proof or additional docs. Yun lang may katagalan talaga ang process ng vic.

in Summary - State Sponsorship Requirements in prep for Visa 176 Comment by Metaform September 2012
@angela I was talking about the invite. Congratulations. I might have exaggerated when I said 70 points. The 189 invites were initially sent out to those who have 75 to 80 points. I'm not the most optimistic person in this forum, you see.

in Australian Computer Society Skills Application Comment by Metaform September 2012
I said it before and I'll say it again - Hindi porke nasa SOL Schedule 1 e you should go for that. Consider the occupation ceiling, states that sponsor the job code, and your estimated points. Kung ang claimed points ay nasa 65 to 70 points lang, fo…

in Australian Computer Society Skills Application Comment by Metaform September 2012
I guess it still depends on the role. Doctors, nurses, and sysadmins are always on call and would put longer hours of work if necessary.

in Work-Life balance in Oz Comment by Metaform September 2012
@Laarmie Yung PDOS, et al ay para lang sa Philippine Immigration. Visa lang ang hahanapin sa iyo sa Oz. Gusto rin sana namin ni misis na dito na manggaling dahil gusto rin namin i-bypass na yung mga gastusin sa seminar and exit documents sa Pinas.

in UAE-based Filipinos let's connect here =) Comment by Metaform September 2012
It will not (mine stayed the same after several updates). But I've read from several forums that your ranking will be pushed down. Person A makes an EOI for a particular occupational code. Person B, a day later, makes the EOI for the same occupatio…

@cchamyl HALA BAKIT MO PINASA? Jowk! You are your own worst enemy. An hour ago you had zero percent chance of passing the assessment. Tapos biglang naging fifty percent! Akalain mo?

in Visa Application Timeline Comment by Metaform August 2012
@wynx Lagyan mo rin ng tick yung checkbox for 190 para searchable din yung EOI mo sa different states (pero syempre mas busy silang mag-sponsor ng mga nag-apply directly sa kanila). Pwedeng parehong naka-check yung 189 and 190.

in Summary - State Sponsorship Requirements in prep for Visa 176 Comment by Metaform August 2012
@cchamyl If it helps, hindi rin ako confident na papasa yung isa kong experience dahil more on helpdesk role sya. I was just inspired by a friend na pumasa sa engineering assessment nya so I thought, "What the heck i-try ko na rin magpa-assess. What…

in Visa Application Timeline Comment by Metaform August 2012
@wynx Apply for ss now. Unahan ang game ngayon because of the ceiling. My claimed score was decent enough but I knew may mataas pa sa akin out there (libu-libong pana na nasa IT) so I pushed for state sponsorship.
