Mga sisses

Pwede pa ba singit ang daughter ko sa school dito?

Kasi diba mag last semester na sila?

thanks a lot

Ang alam ko pwede especially PR kayo. Kaso limited ka lang sa school na malapit sa inyo. Kelangan yung pinakamalapit na local school sa bahay nyo kasi may mga ganyan pa silang measure. Kahit sa Catholic school ganon din.  Preferred nila yung mga batang sakop ng parish nila as explained by the principal nung mag-enquire ako 2 months ago for my son's prep application.

[prisma]

wala npa kasi akong landline

I am using optus prepaid.  Bakit ang daling maubos grabe.

Mga sis, may alam ba kayong mura na prepaid for local calls?

I am using lebarra for international calls kasi.

thanks

Hi sis! Eto ang Montessori sa Perth na merong toddler program. I have been wanting to put my son in a Montessori toddler program but the drop-off and pick-up schedules prevented me from enrolling him in a Montessori class in Geelong.

Yung baby girl mo naman pwede mo dalhin sa playgroup na meron sa community for interaction. Minimal fees lang yon mga $3-5 per session lang. Pwede mo rin sila dalhin sa story session sa local library. Madami din batang nagpupunta don.

Nag-da-drive ka ba sa Pinas? Malaking tulong kung makaka-drive ka na din agad dito especially kung ikaw ang maghahatid-sundo sa son mo.

Thanks sis mag driving school pa ako matagal na ako sinabihan ni hubby mag-aral tamad [textspeak!] ako hehe problem ko [textspeak!] sis kadamihan ng nakita kung mga early childhood education sa net required nila potty train na ang bata kaso son ko d pa ganon ka potty train d pa sia nagsasabi na magwiwi or popo sia though pag pumapasok sia sa school wala na siang diaper may baon [textspeak!] siang extra na damit at pinapalitan [textspeak!] sia sa school hopefully maka hanap din kami ng school na almost the same ng school nia dito inuutusan ko na nga si hubby na maghanap ng school na pwede yong anak namin

Thanks sa mga tips sis Lalei it will be a big help gagawin ko yong mga sinabi mo pag andon na kami.

Congratulations! Iba talaga sistema nila dito. Kung mag-public hospital at clinic ndi pare-pareho ang mag-check sayong doctor based yan sa experience ko ha. Pero literal na libre sa mga may medicare at sobrang supportive ng mga midwife. At kahit paying patient ka sa public hospital like what happened to me kasi hindi pa ako PR that time, you can just go out of the hospital without paying anything. I-bi-bill na lang.

Oo nga sis eh, ganun din mangyayari sa amin kasi we're on 457 visa and are not entitled to Medicare.  So bale, the hospital will just bill everything to your private insurance tapos yung amount na chargeable to you, puede pa daw installment pag malaki   Atat na nga ako to start my check-ups in the hospital kasi yun kasama na sa pag-bill pagkaanak mo.  Eh kasi ngayon puro sa GP pa lang ako, lahat ng tests ko at consult, cash out ako, expensive!

I-reimburse mo sa private health insurance mo pati GP fees. Sayang din. Nag-re-reimburse ako dati ng GP fees kahit waiting pa lang ako for OB coverage. Sulitin ang insurance!

^ yeah true, if you have private health fund, you can reimburse it. Though di nga Lang full amount mareimburse mo (sa case namin ganun under mbf kmi)

we just renew our green passport pla sa bago, yng bago yng brown. It cost us $90 each. We just also learned that we can also renew our drivers license sa pinas... Sa kanila Lang papadala. I'm driving [textspeak!] using Phil drivers license, I'm thinking to renew kaso mag expire na sya nxt January. At the same time, I'll apply for Australian license too, but not sure if I still need to undergo the learners since I'm driving here 2 years na. Baka siguro I'll go for the test drive agad... Haven't check it with the rta.

Talaga sis puede mag-renew ng Phil. license dito?  Paano, dadalhin lang sa Consulate?  Ako kasi we waited a few months pa nung umuwi kami last June tsaka ako nag-renew.  I'm too chicken kasi to apply for a WA license kasi talagang pang-emergency lang ang driving skills ko haha.

If you've had your Phil. license for more than 2 years, you don't have to go through the L and P plates.  Mag-online test ka lang then practical test then yun na.  My hubby got his WA license last Feb. because his Phil. license expired.

[nadialicious16]

[carolskitot]

Yeah... Puede daw iparenew sabi Phil embassy dito. Papadala lang daw kmi request to renew the license then embassy magsubmit sa pinas. They showed to us pa nga yng memo abt renewing Phil license. They gave us a copy. Will post it here tom...

[boaVista]

mga sis ask ko lang kung me makukuha kayang work ang tourist sa OZ? possible kaya? sabi kasi ng friend ko na nag invite sa akin impossible daw?

[[-c-h-a-]]

impossibleng impossible

illegal kasi magtrabaho dito ang tourists

[lalei]

Malabo makapagtrabaho ang mga tourist dito kasi unang-una nila hinahanap ay PR visa at tax file number. Unless sa mga Asian grocery or resto magta-trabaho pero hindi rin worth it kasi babaratin ka naman nila. Ndi rin ata usual dito ang amnesty unlike sa US na usual ang amnesty.

[nadialicious16]
