Hi Kate, Okay naman ang First House Hotel. Siguro mga Two or Three-STar Hotel siya, malakas naman aircon yung shower hot and cold may t.v maliit nga lang may ref okay naman toilet malinis, yung key mo sa room ang nagko-control sa pag-on and off ng lights, aircon, tv ika nga eh electronically controlled medyo sosyal ng konti(konti lang kasi im sure mas marami pang amenities na ino-offer ang mga five-star hotels). Malapit lang siya sa All Seasons Place mga around 30 minutes travel time kung hindi grabe traffic. Malapit lang siya sa mga department store and sa market, walking distance siya sa lahat. Kumbaga para kang nasa Divisoria although mas malinis naman doon. Hindi ka na kailangan sumakay pa ng tuk-tuk kung gusto mong kumain kaya talagang makakamura ka. May malapit na KFC doon, McDonalds and 7/11. Siguro P30,000.00 lang lahat lahat ang gastos namin medyo hindi kami nag-splurge kasi sa pagshopping. Bumili lang kami ng tig-isang pasalubong for our kids and our family. Ganoon kamura kahit sa pagbili ng pasalubong basta doon ka lang sa market bibili. Kung sa Department store na malalaki, mapapamahal ka. maraming maliliit na store sa tabi ng First House kung ayaw mo sa market. pero I'm telling you doon ako nakabili ng miniature gold plated Golden Buddha for just 250baht. Murang mura na yon. Sa Golden Buddha temple, ang alok na presyo is 800baht for that same size gold plated golden buddha. nakabili ako ng mini-shoulder bags for my kids and pamangkin for just 30baht each with the usual elephant design, white t-shirts for only 60baht each sa sidewalk vendor lang hindi sa loob ng market mismo. Nagulat nga kami paguwi namin kasi malaki-laki ang nasave namin sa pagstay namin sa First House Hotel, malaking bagay yung libreng breakfast. Hanggang 10am yata sine-serve yung breakfast. marami kang pagpipilian, may plain rice, fried rice, 3 klaseng salad, juice, coffee, bread, noodles na pansit style with asparagus, maraming maanghang na dishes kaya medyo ingat ka, one to sawa! Kaya after breakfast siguro around 3pm na kami nagla-lunch. marami ding maliliit na thai restaurant sa tabi ng hotle kung gusto mong sumubok ng thai cuisine. may mga sidewalk vendor din, para ka ngang nasa pinas. magugulat ka, yung ibang tindera filipinos and yung ibang store and restaurant sa tabi filipinos din. medyo maraming filipinos na nagtu-tour doon kasi pagdating namin ng First House, yung mga staff sa hotel tinanong kaagad kami if we are filipinos. the staff can say right away dahil nga maraming filipino tourists sa bangkok, magugulat ka sa dami. the tourist guide assigned to us her name is Suzie, karamihan ng client nya were filipinos. Sa tanong ni Kirk na kung pwedeng morning ang tour, alam ko talaga sa morning ini-schedule ang tour kasi kami nakiusap sa travel ageny kung pwede sa hapon pero hindi nag-push through, am pa rin ang naging sched ng tour namin. kasi kung gusto mong i-extend yung tour hanggang sa hapon if you want to see the elephant farm pwede kaya lang may bayad na. anyways, medyo mahaba-haba na kwento ko. sana these infos could help you sa napipinto mong pagtravel sa bangkok. Goodluck! Mrs.Allan

Hi sarah,

Wala pa akong interview date, just preparing for the future. Nung nabasa ko kasi yung invitation letter ni kirk, parang naisip ko na better prepare today than panic later. kasi yung kay kirk 2 weeks preparation time lang ang binigay sa kanya ng VO nya. so walang gaanong time para makapag scout ng travel agencies like what kirk said, and akala ko standard is 1 month.

pero curious ako kung may nainterview na kaya sa china?

sarah, attend kaba ng 8th meet?

regards,
Kate

Hi Kate! Naka-attend na po ako ng 8th meet pero I wasn't able to find you there...Saan ka nakaupo? Ako sa bandang unahan. Si Kirk lang ang nakita ko, kaya lang di ko nalapitan...

Siguro nga sa next meet na lang...Hindi ko din nalapitan si Kirk pero I saw him stand up nung me tinanong siya sa speaker. Sa next meet, pwamis, lalapit na ako sa inyo. Ganun pa rin po yung sa application ko -- still gathering docs. Katatapos ko lang kumuha ng NBI clearance at certified copy ng passport. Yung sa medical, nangangapa pa. Kaw, me sked ka na ba for interview?

Good Day to everybody! New lang me dito sa forum & Iam also planning to lodge my ITA end of October. Also looking for a travel agency in preparation sa interview. Questions lang po.... Kailangan ba na husband & wife ang mag attend sa interview?wala kasi husband ko nasa Jeddah. Ms. Sarah, saan mo pina certify passport? DFA ba or notary public? **And how much ang need for settlement funds? Nice to know na marami pala tayo na nag paprocess for NZ. Wala kasi kami relative sa NZ. Thanks...

Hi and welcome! Sa DFA po ako nagpa-certify. Pero I've heard from some of my friends na pwede na sa notary public na lang. For settlement funds, 1000 NZD per head per month in three months (so 3000 NZD/head) pero kung may matitirhan ka na daw dun sa NZ (kakilala or kamag-anak), 400 NZD na lang.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Ms. Sarah for the reply & sa valuable info. May consultant ako sa NZ, ok lang ba na sabihin ko sa kanya ako titira para hindi masyado malaki ang settlement funds. Hindi kasi kami mag sell ng properties kasi sayang investment. I am also interested mag join sa group niyo kasi nabasa ko sa ibang forum topic na nag meet kayo & share thing re migrating to NZ.Wala kasi kami relative doon at it will be great to meet you all sa NZ (positive thinker lang po!) Thanks & Cheers to all!

Ok lang po. You can make use of any contact person in NZ, basta ok lang sa kanila. In this way, maliit na lang ang kailangan mong ipakita na settlement funds. Contact details lang nila ang hihingin sa interview.

You can join our group, of course. Give me your email add para maka-request tayo ng invites or you can email the group's address:
pinoyz2nz@yahoogroups.com

Wala pang venue sa next meet pero sana makasama ka.

Regards,

slotus, sa notary ka na lang magpacertify ng passport, huwag na sa DFA kasi alam ko matagal. dadalhin mo rin naman iyon sa interview at ipapakita sa VO. yun nga pala, importante sa mga mag-lodge ng ITA, yung mga originals niyo, kahit wala na kayong balak hingin pa iyon at ipabalik sa inyo, (ex. cert of employment, transcript, etc) ipaxerox niyo na rin at isama sa docs. kasi binalik sa akin yung mga inindicate kong originals sa summary list na sinama ko sa application during my interview.
