Good advice. Also avoid alcohol at least 24-48 hours before. Drink plenty of water and have a high fiber diet couple of days before. Works miracles!

Most importantly , dont rush or never walk fast and directly get into clinic . Sit for a while before they check for blood pressure bcoz heart beat will be high if u walk fast . Relax ur heart rate and then go .

Although it is a bit late, I would like to share some good news with you. Last Feb. 14, I received the most awesome valentine's gift, I got the visa grant!
I lodged my application online on May 12, 2011 and assigned a CO on Dec. 12, 2011. You might be wondering why it took me about 2 months to receive the grant, that is
because I was requested to submit FBI clearance which took around 8 weeks to complete and Singapore COC for my husband which took about 6 weeks.

Also, my husband has a medical condition, he had a heart attack on Feb 2007 and undergone angioplasty with stenting and has been taking 7 medicines every day which
at first made me worry if we will pass medical but it turned out to be alright!! I would like to share this with you so anybody who has the same situation as ours
will not worry that much.

I didn't have an agent so I would say that having this kind of forum really helped DIY aspiring migrants like me. Keep it up and good luck to everyone who are still
waiting for their visas. Your time will come sooner than you expect it.

from May 23 to June 03, I am not too upset about that...

We've seen a nice movement on June applicants, but there are still many late June applicants (after 20th) waiting for CO allocations. Hope we can all see some movements in the coming 2 weeks~
