Good morning everyone, Hope everyone is all well and safe. For those who are waiting for their BM, maybe these articles can help you. Medyo madami2 but I think it will help you to have an idea on how these things are done here down under. 👉 Ce…

@engr_boy hindi nga pala macocompute sa mygov ung tax noh but there's a tab there na 'amend' di ba. just click that and put the necessary information. Since you came here ba ang iaamend mo? Just make a list and convert it and maybe this can help you…

@imau kelan po ba kayo mg-BM? For Brisbane Central State School, kakatapos lang ng enrolment for next year. Inaantay namin yung last email for transition and pick up ng uniforms. Uniform costs $30 polo shirt, $25 shorts, $40 jacket/backpack, $20 ha…

@tmanito that's good. You can open an online account with the banks that you mentioned and activate it once you are onshore. Sayang din yung exchange rate. convert to peso then aud. not sure how much is usd to aud.

@gdcan @maureenguelan for us, we were planning to put my son in childcare right away pero we changed our minds kasi mahal ang bayad sa child care. nag-ipon muna kami konti and then after 6 months saka namin sya pinasok nung medyo settled na rin k…

@engr_boy pag inamend mo ba ung tax return mo, may shortfall sa tax payable or excess refund? If wala nman, I think no need to amend since no effect sya but it's better to consult your accountant. Don't you want to close your Singapore accounts o…

@tmanito is that a legit offer? Bakit magtra2nsfer agad ng pera? I remember before I had a job offer too and they were asking for my bank account para daw doon ilagay ng customers ung sales for the mean time as they do not have a branch in Au. They …

@geneaux I think walang office ang NAB sa pinas. You can open online and transfer once you receive a welcome letter from them- https://www.nab.com.au/personal/travel-and-overseas-banking/open-account-from-overseas. @maureenguelan ganyan na ganyan…

you declare your worlwide income if you are considered a resident for tax purposes and you only declare those income that are realized. For Pag-ibig MP2, di mo naman malalaman yung interest once you redeem it on the 5th year. Am I correct? Pero if y…

@carlosau keep yourself busy para di ka malungkot and keep an open mind. Tiis tiis lang and you'll be reunited with them soon. While waiting for a job offer, research ka about sa field mo.

@pamzaragoza based on my observation, most companies here are small - medium entities and they do not have a marketing department. Usually what they do is networking or word of mouth. I would suggest do some research first on your field, write a lis…

@heidi1286 you need to reach the minimum 65 points para makapaglodge ka as far as I know. Makapaglodge ka man ng below the minimum, the chance to be invited will be low or none at all. @bella_ wala ba sa SOL ang occupation mo? Maybe you can check…

@goku_son Pwede mo iamend yung tax return mo thru mygov. Do you have the letter of ML exemption? That will be the supporting document. Tawag ka sa ATO. Helpful naman (yung iba ) sila and ask them for more info. Saka bago naman ilodge yung tax re…

@tofurad You have to change it first in your BDO account settings in online banking before calling them to quote the reference number. Before you can change it via phone but when I tried calling to change it because I was locked out due to the OTP g…

@flaming_vines PR is different from being a resident for tax purposes. You can be an Australian citizen but not considered as a resident for tax purposes. As for your case, you are not considered a resident for tax purposes as you did not move yet p…

@Hendro Check the state you are applying for the DL. I think it really doesn't matter because even if you have P plates, you can still drive unlike L plates. Also, no need for you to do the written exam and practical (though depends on the state. He…

in Converting Singapore/Philippine Driver's License Comment by juliatheambitiousoul June 2019
@carlosau Just update your immiaccount once you receive the updated ID's especially passport. I had ID's that were under my maiden name and updated immi once I received the married name.

in BIG MOVE 2019 Comment by juliatheambitiousoul June 2019
@flaming_vines not taxable as long as you are not considered an Australian resident for that FY. Once you are considered a resident, you need to declare any interests or gains though I read somewhere that ATO rarely audit individuals but it's better…

@alfonso31 did you take the written exam online or sa TMR office? I think the online reviewer is better than the booklet. Me and my husband had arguments because of the give way signs din especially sa roundabout, yung give way to your right and wha…

in How to convert PH Driver's License to AU Driver's License? Comment by juliatheambitiousoul May 2019
@alfonso31 base on my understanding sa rule nila here in QLD, you have 3 months to use the overseas drivers license. If you fail the first exam, you can take the next day. If second, 8th day after the 2nd and if failed, 29th day after the 3rd fail. …

@InahPerez I hope all is well but I think you should try working first in the Philippines before jumping overseas. Life overseas is tough especially if you don't have anybody to support you.
