    I have a question with this visa. Is it still under assessment level 3 or pwede ng 1? Especially if the school is eligible for streamlined visa processing?

    Kelangan ba magsend ng certificate of employment o hindi na?
  • Cheers25Cheers25

    Reply to @beaj: Sa pagkakaalam ko level 3 ang 572, ako naglagay ako cert. of employment kasi dun sa form na aansweran kelangn ng attached docs, regarding sa employment history mo,

    Thanks Cheers25.
    Problem ko ngayon yan, pano kung wala, 2 years ako nagwork dito (2009 to 2011) tapos 9months sa SG. For sure, hindi ako mabibigyan ng Cert. of Employment sa work ko sa SG kasi sandali lang naman ako nagtrabaho dun, 2 companies pa. Pwede kaya yun una ko work dito?

    And, yun evidence of funds. What if my dad's gonna sponsor me, does he need to make an affidavit of support pa? Or basta send ng money deposit slip and evidence of income niya?

    On a side note, grabe naman yun sa visa! 2 hours ko ata sinagutan! Nagkamali pako! Sayang sa papel! hahah Sana pwede nalang kasi online.
  • Cheers25Cheers25

    Yup pwede yun basta lahat ng wok exp. mo, pero try mo pa din hingi ng certification sa SG, pandagdag din yun, hindi lang ako sure kung pwede ilagay sa form tas walang attachments, baka kasi hingan ka ng additional docs, kelgan ng affidavit, bank certificates and statements ng 3 months,

    Hehe ang dami din kasi tanong.. Anong visa type ka ba?

    @Cheers25 Hopefully sa Monday. Sana umabot, kasi orientation ko sa July 26 na. If only I knew it would be this time-consuming, hindi sana ako pumetix. LOL Pero if hindi aabot, okay lang naman kahit hindi makapunta sa orientation, August 8 pa naman start ng class.
