@fgs ah ok po pano un sir diba ung dependent pag 489 kailangan din mag stay ng 2 years sa region?
I need to check whats the current legislation...2 years ago when we applied for 887, only the main applicant is required to have lived for 2 years and worked at least 1 year fulltime work to be qualified to apply.
@fgs ok sir parang nabasa ko nga sa thread pati dependent kailangan din maserve ung 2 years of stay
Excerpt from Migration Act 887.2—Primary criteria Note: The primary criteria must be satisfied by at least 1 applicant. Other applicants who are members of the family unit of the applicant who satisfies the primary criteria need satisfy only
887.3—Secondary criteria Note: These criteria must be satisfied by applicants who are members of the family unit of an applicant who satisfies the primary criteria. 887.31—Criteria to be satisfied at time of application 887.311 The applicant is a member of the family unit of a person who satisfies the primary criteria in Subdivision 887.21 and made a combined application with that person. 887.32—Criteria to be satisfied at time of decision 887.321 The applicant continues to be a member of the family unit of a person who, having satisfied the primary criteria, is the holder of a Subclass 887 visa
It doesnt mentioned about secondary applicants to comply with the 2 years residency to be included in the application...Dependents except the spouse dont have the right to apply for 887 and should be included in the main applicant's application.

@fgs Hi! We are also interested in this topic if dependents still need to comply the 2 years residency since in our case nauna hobby ko mag BM. The points you mentioned kasi is not consistent with the info found at DHA website. See screenshot below. You think the one at the migration act is still the valid reference for 887 visa application? Thanks

PTE Writing Tips
For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.
Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.
Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.
4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.
If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.
If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.
Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.
For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence
Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

I guess you better clarify it with DHA. Baka nagbago na req nila. In our case 2 years ago, only the main applicant is required to comply with the 2 years residence. Baka nga inassume na as a family unit, dapat sabay na dumating and have lived together.. If this is the case, dapat binago na din migration regulations act kasi yan ang pinaka bible ng mga COs when reviewing a visa application.

If you scroll below the "LEARN ABOUT" not the "FOLLOW THESE STEPS" tab, di namention regarding residency req for both partner and dependents. Di rin consistent don sa requirement ng defacto partner na dapat 6-12 months na kayo nagsasama bago mo sya pwede isama sa application.And how about a child born in Australia? kailangan ba e-pending mo application mo only to wait for that child to turn to 2 years old para masama mo sa application nyo? I guess di consistent ang info reflected sa DHA website.
@fgs ok sir maraming salamat sa mga info mo. Sir ask ko na din kun pag nasatisfy ko pi ba ung requirements sa visa 489, marami pa po ba requirements ang kailangan pag nag apply ako ng 887? Tsaka po sa mga ngrant ng 489 san region po madalas naiinvite? Sorry po kung madami ako tanong sir

Main reqs for 887 are proof of living 2 years(main applicant) in regional area and proof of 1 year fulltime work.
It depends on which state you apply. Each state has it own skills occupations list and in the case of NSW, per region. Each occupation has its own quota so isa yon sa factors. You can check website of the state and check the status of your occupation to get an indication whether marami pang vacant or about to exhaust na ang quota
@fgs ah ok sir industrial engineer po kasi ako pero i work as production engineer. Ag sistema po ba sir pag ganon ang mag iincite akain kung sakaling 489 ay ung pasok ung anzsco ko?
fgsCooper Basin Posts: 1,161Member Joined: Nov 12, 2013
Paassess ka ng skill based sa work experience mo..you can still claim points sa degree regardless whether relevant sa skill mo or not. As long as you comply with the requirements, yheres no reason not to approve your 887 visa app...I applied exactly on my 2nd year..then applied citizenship exactly on my 4 years..

hi @JHONIEL ! Baka makatulong sa pag decide nyo ang info ko regarding delivery. We came here on a 489 and I was 7 mos preggy. Talagang ang decision namin ay dito ako manganganak. Nagpunta muna ako sa GP pra kumukha ng referral sa hospital for the usual checks. Kung hindi naman complicated ang pregnancy, puwedeng GP lng mag check sa iyo periodically. But since candidiate ako for C-section, OB ang nagchecheck sa akin monthly. Sa public hospital yung OB ko so mga $200/visit. Sa panganganak, ang charge sa akin ay $1989/day. Yung per day sa hospital ay 24 hours equivalent, naka mahigit 48 hours ako pero ang charge ay 2 days lang kasi hindi naman ako umabot ng 12midnight of the 3rd day. At ang pinaka importante, puwede kayo mag avail ng payment plan at no need bayaran ng full before kayo ma-discharge ni baby Nakakatuwa lang kasi lumabas kami ng hospital ng walang binabayad ni ten cents! Solo room ako, public hospital pero super ma-alaga ang staff! Yung monthly visits lang pala sa OB ang required ang bayad per visit.
Kumuha din kami ng health insurance pag dating but since may required 12 months waiting, hindi covered ang costs.
Hope that helps

Hello po.. Bago lang po ako sa forum na ito. Just want to ask about visa 489. Ask ko lang po for those who made the big move sa RDA Southern inland, do you need to report po ba your working and living arrangements once you made the big move? Saan po ba nag rereport?
Thanks po. Dami pa po ako questions pero mag basa po muna ako sa past threads bka may answe.
Another question po. Totoo po ba matagal mainvite sa 489 visa? Umaabot po ba ng 9-12 months? Thanks po sa mga sasagot
There are 2 types of 489 visa. A family sponsored and state sponsored. Family sponsored visa has a very low quota, and only 10 usually invited every fortnight. The 489 state sponsored invitation depends when the state approve your sponsorship and quota depends on the need of the state per occupation. You can check the indicative availability of invitation per occupation sa sponsoring state migration website( usually indicated by Low, Medium and High availability.)
@JHONIEL , nakapag pamedical na ako ng 2015, then na-grant si 489. After initial entry saka ako naging preggy. So sa lagay nyo, wag na muna maging preggy c mrs hanggang hndi namemedical

@supermadi , 2015 kmi na grant, 2016 ako na-preggy at nanganak. Kaya I would suggest wag muna maging preggy hanggang wala pang grant.. mas maigi pati na dito ka manganak para idadagdag na lng si baby sa visa ng primary applicant. From my understanding kpg sa Pinas ka manganganak, or anywhere except Aus, separate visa application ang sa baby.

It depends on which state you apply. Each state has it own skills occupations list and in the case of NSW, per region. Each occupation has its own quota so isa yon sa factors. You can check website of the state and check the status of your occupation to get an indication whether marami pang vacant or about to exhaust na ang quota

hi @JHONIEL ! Baka makatulong sa pag decide nyo ang info ko regarding delivery. We came here on a 489 and I was 7 mos preggy. Talagang ang decision namin ay dito ako manganganak. Nagpunta muna ako sa GP pra kumukha ng referral sa hospital for the usual checks. Kung hindi naman complicated ang pregnancy, puwedeng GP lng mag check sa iyo periodically. But since candidiate ako for C-section, OB ang nagchecheck sa akin monthly. Sa public hospital yung OB ko so mga $200/visit. Sa panganganak, ang charge sa akin ay $1989/day. Yung per day sa hospital ay 24 hours equivalent, naka mahigit 48 hours ako pero ang charge ay 2 days lang kasi hindi naman ako umabot ng 12midnight of the 3rd day. At ang pinaka importante, puwede kayo mag avail ng payment plan at no need bayaran ng full before kayo ma-discharge ni baby Nakakatuwa lang kasi lumabas kami ng hospital ng walang binabayad ni ten cents! Solo room ako, public hospital pero super ma-alaga ang staff! Yung monthly visits lang pala sa OB ang required ang bayad per visit.
Kumuha din kami ng health insurance pag dating but since may required 12 months waiting, hindi covered ang costs.
Hope that helps

PTE Writing Tips
For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.
Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.
Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.
4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.
If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.
If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.
Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.
For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence
Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.
