see below my qualifications:
1. I have relatives in Sydney and Melbourne (uncle)

4. licensed architect in Philippines
5. Exp in Philippines - 4yrs
6. Overseas experience dubai - almost 9yrs
6. not yet married
7. present work less than a yr- freelance architect at part owner ng build and sell business here in philippines.

    I would concentrate more on independent visa. It's unlikely any of your relatives could sponsor you if they live in Sydney and Melbourne. Good luck!

    I dont thin you need to be sponsored by your relatives. Architect is in the skills list and you can apply as independent. you need at least 60 points and positive skills assessment to apply. based on the data you have provided above you can get 60 points easily.

    example points caluclator:
    age -25pts
    work experience - 15 pts (over 8 yrs)
    education - 15 pts (bachelors degree)
    english test - 10 pts (proficient english)
    total - 65 points

    First step for you is to check/google the website of architects accreditation council of australia and look for their requirements for skills assessment for migration. It will give you an idea what do they require to get a positive skills assessment. Some assessment bodies require evidence of english test at the time of assessment application others don't

    @archdreamchaser be mindful that nowadays, even if your points is 60 or 65, unlikely you'all get an invite for 189 unless you score at least 70 points. All the best!

    @jomar011888 gudluck. Sana dumating na yun sayo. Ako magstart palang. Magtake ng IELTS. Sabi ng iba mas ok ang PTE. I will try to process my Skills assessment and Ielts at the same time para if ever magfail (hopefully makapasa agad) hindi sya time consuming.

    @arc123 you have to have a relative living in a "designated area" in australia who can sponsor you AND your nominated occupation is in the skills list eligible for relative sponsorship AND you meet the required points AND obtained a positive skills assessment.

    @yasarella i don't think so; relative has to be close relative, mother, father, partner, sister,brother,uncle, etc.
