    @babie No, you don’t have to. The Ph license is enough.

    @cheng1003 May babayaran yan, depende kung ilang countries ang ilalagay mo. Tuluy tuloy lang yun after you enter your details. I suggest that you use laptop or desktop. You have to put in your card details sa payment page nila then get the reference number to be written on the AGOS Form.

    Hello everyone. Anyone here who were able to get a COE even if you’re a volunteer nurse? But unfortunately no one on that hospital can verify your COE as the facility is under new management na? Mas safe po ba na i declare na lang ng hospital na previous records of the employees are no longer kept or unavailable? Thank you for the response.

    If ever may similar case. Let me know. God bless you!

    Hello guys, malapit na akong matapos sa bridging program ako. I'm weighing my options now kasi I heard mahirap makakuha ng sponsorship ngayon, I would like to ask regarding sa payslip, 2 kasing hospital na napasukan do I need to provide both pasylip po ba? and Im thinking na instead of PR 190 ang iaapply ko e 489 relative visa na lang muna, baka mas mabilis sya? I only have 55 points po kasi. Thank you

    @MissAussie Hi, yes you have to provide for both. Kung hindi aabot yung points, you can always opt for another visa like the 489. It is a temporary visa but you can later apply for PR once you’re eligible.

    @Cassey so is it better na hindi ko na lang ipasa yung isa sa ANMAC kasi volunteer lang ako noon sa 1st hosp ko, though nakalagay naman as Registered Nurse sa COE ko. and mas mabilis po ba to compared sa 190?

    @MissAussie Hindi naman siya mairereport sa LOD mo since voluntary experience siya. Ang inaassess lang ng ANMAC yung paid experience. I’m not sure kung gano siya kabilis o katagal since walang available na data for 489 and take note kailangan mo pa ring magantay ng invitation for the 489. Matagal ang process ngayon mapa189 o 190. Binawasan kasi nila yung number of invites.

    @Cassey thank you so much Ms. Cassey! And I've read na ang Victoria ay temporarily closed for invitation :( I've been reading sa other forums there's no available data nga regarding 489 kung gaano sya kabilis sa low volume ng applicants nila.

    @drnc_13 Gawa ka na lang ng Stat Dec stating that your past employer does not issue past payslips. They can at least prolly put in your statement of service (COE) the hours that you’ve worked with them. You can also provide ITR showing your pay.

    @MissAussie You’re welcome. Ang dami kasing nagapply for 190 dahil matagal ang 189. Closed din ang Queensland, I’m not sure though kung nagopen na uli sila. .

    @Wenggay Hi, oo pwede ka ng paassess ng papers mo sa AHPRA. With regards to working, it would depend on your Visa. Most ng applicants who do BP program apply for a Tourist Visa which doesn’t have work rights. You can do student visa but this will again depend on the Uni. It would be hard to work though because BP is just brief and classes are held everyday as well. Try to gain at least 3yrs of work experience so that you can get points for your work experience especially at this time where getting an invite for the PR application takes time.

    Who ever will get work sponsorship through the new 482 visa, kindly share.. I'm a bit worried kasi July-Sept pa yung bridging ko tapos I only have 65 points :( Hopefully, i could still get work sponsorship or PR through 190 by next year..

    @MissAussie @sunshineee28 are you doing BP now? any employers responding to your applications? New migration year will start on July 1, hopefully Vic and Queensland sponsorship will soon open..

    @jonnah1824 Mas madali in the sense na madali mong mafollow up, yun lang yung advantage na nakikita ko. Depende pa rin naman kasi yung bilis o bagal sa eligibility mo and yung completeness ng documents mo. It’s more costly because you’ll be doubling up the visa fees plus hindi ka rin sure kung bibigyan ka ba ng extension ng visa or if you have to go home and lodge from the Ph. It would all depend on your circumstances.

    @LovellaEllen If you have at least 3yrs of hospital experience in a specialty area, there’s a chance for sponsorship but if your experience is under 2yrs, best to have a Plan B.
