@PIPO kelan ba flight nyo?

in Airfare - Manila to Australia (One Way) Comment by bookworm October 2014
@PIPO let them know that you are an immigrant when you send them an email. They will give it to you but you have to provide your visa papers.

in Airfare - Manila to Australia (One Way) Comment by bookworm October 2014
tama si @TotoyOZresident Any process will do, basta dumaan ka sa tamang proseso. Pag sinabi naman nilang released ka na, then good for you. I think ok lang sa kanila kasi andaming nawalan at mawawalan ng trabaho sa canberra ngayon.

in Airfare - Manila to Australia (One Way) Comment by bookworm October 2014
@kenshusei I recently paid for Qantas from abroad. I had to remit my money to their account. But after that, it was ok. They will also give you additional 10kg baggage if you have PR visa.

I remember my cousin before, sa Canada nga lang. They kept asking him that question. Finally, one time he said, I will work for you for a month without payment. If you like my performance, hire me. If you don't, then that is my loss. They hired him

in Experience in Buying Cars in Australia Comment by bookworm October 2014
@mvmmanangan you are not "pre-qualified". Pre-qualified means you are in their system and you have had prior approval. That is their spiel to get you to sign up with them. Maybe you have all the right qualifications and will pass the point requirem…

@ieya_oz, you can go to other states to visit, but you have to stay in your sponsoring state to work.

in Can you go to live and work in other states on a state-sponsored visa (Sub-Class 190?) Comment by bookworm September 2014
@bronapple143, it is not just the money though. What is the quality of life in Manila? Think about it. What is the quality of the air in Manila? What is the quality of the water? Do you really want your kids to grow up getting used to all the tr…

in Victoria State Sponsorship Comment by bookworm September 2014

@kremitz yup, yung sa state I mean, yung contact person mo pagdating mo ng state

in I'm having difficulty finding a job. Comment by bookworm September 2014
@Kata, Because of the security clearance. Most jobs in Canberra need security clearance because you are accessing sensitive information. They want to avoid the information getting into the wrong hands, like hackers or terrorist or whistleblowers, et…
