Should I wait for employer sponsorship or start applying for state sponsored PR?

Hello po! I arrived here in Perth in July this year. Unfortunately, few months pa lang ng stay ko dito, na-witness ko na maglay of ang office ko at iba pang mga offices ng mga employees. :-SS Fortunately, hindi ako nakasama. So ngayon, nag-iisip ako whether kelangan ko na bang mag apply for state sponsorship? Sabi kasi ng employer ko, i-i-sponsor daw nila ako after 2 years... Please advise.

    Hi po, anong visa po meron kayo sa ngayon? Kung ako sa kalagayan niyo, I would talk to your employer about this first...tanong niyo kung ano plano nila sa inyo. Kasi baka ma-offend yung employer niyo pag nalaman nilang may inaasikaso kayong "exit strategy" sa likod nila and you would not want to burn bridges this early in your career :)

    IMO, Usap muna kayo...pag malabo sagot nila or nalalabuan kayo sa pangako nila, that's the time you come up with a plan B :)

    Thank you LokiJr and TotoyOZresident. 457 ang visa ko ngayon. Before pa ako nag-move dito sa Aussie, sinabi na nila na i-sponsor nila ako after 2 years.

    Hi ilovecake, friendly advise ko sayo dyan ka na muna sa employer mo. Kung maganda naman ang sahod mag stay ka muna dyan Isipin mo yung Permanent resident visa... Mahirap na maghanap ngayun na employer willing to sponsor for PR. 457 ako dati after two years PR na ako then after two years apply na ako ng citizenship at approved na waiting na ako ng schedule for citizenship ceremony. Kung nahihirapan ka sa financialy at mahal mo naman bf mo at mahal ka rin nya at sabi ng puso mo sya na talaga para sayo eh magpakasal na kau para maidala mo rin sa oz para may katulong kana magbayad ng bills kasi puede din sya mag work para di ka rin malungkot dyan. Advise ko lang about sa pagibig naman... :D

    ilan years ka na sa oz? Check mo rin kung regional ang place ng work mo. Kung regional ang kukunin mo na PR visa ay:
    Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187)
    link: http://www.immi.gov.au/skills/skillselect/index/visas/subclass-187/

    Kapag hindi naman regional. Ang kukunin mo ay:
    Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186)
    link: http://www.immi.gov.au/skills/skillselect/index/visas/subclass-186/

    Ang pagkaalam ko ngayun 2 years ang minimum requirements to apply for PR visa from 457 visa. Noon before July this year, after a year puede na mag apply ng PR visa basta regional area RSMS visa. I advise you na itago mo muna mga documents na naisubmit mo for 457 visa application para after two years madali na i renew ang mga documents mo. Check mo rin baka kailangan ng IELTS so minsan mag review ka rin kapag free ka. I prepared mo sarili mo for PR visa application ngayun pa lang mag research kana kung anu ang mga requirements may additional documents ka kailangan din isubmit. Expected mo na rin after two years baka may magbago sa requiements at sistema sa pagapply ng PR visa. Just focus to your work and have faith... just pray always..

    Goodluck and GOD bless...

    cheers

    Thank you again TotoyOZresident! :) Siguro maghihintay na lang din ako after 2 years. Natakot lang ako nung nagterminate ng employees sa office namin e. Kasi that means kung ako yung ma-lay off, allowed lang ako to stay here for 1 month (tama ba)? Kakarating ko lang ng Aussie nung July 2012. So mejo matagal tagal pa yung hihintayin ko, pero okay lang. Magbabasa na lang ako ng requirements para sa next kong uwi sa Pinas, ma-asikaso ko na yung mga requirements (kung kelangan mang may kunin ako dun). Thank you again and advanced happy new year! :)

    @ilovecake, to be on the safe side, have something in writing na rin pag nag usap kayo...like, wala naman masama siguro kung may provision sa employment contract tungkol sa visa na kung satisfactory yung performance mo in two year's time, bibigyan ka nila ng PR visa...be open with your employer :)
