General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

markier87

Hi, everyone!

Quick question: If I wanted to go out of Australia (assuming I get approved for my 2nd Bridging visa B) for Christmas holidays, will this jeopardize my current SC 189 application? (Lodged last June 2019).

Thanks in advance!

Hello, pwede po ba mag-apply for both 189 and 476 (graduate skilled visa) at the same time? Would having multiple applications for different Visas hurt my chances of getting PR through 189?

yes pwede.

it wont hurt but in case u get 189 granted and 476 next, then cancelled ang 189, unless withdraw mo ang 476 asap.

in my opinion, proceed with 189, assuming na you have enough points to be invited within a year (about 80 to 85pts). competition is really tough now. the soonest possible eoi for 189 is better. if u get 476 first, edi tatakbo uli ang oras at dadami pa lalo ang competitors mo sa slot sa 189 in the future.

@Oz2021

in case hndi ka pa enough points, posible na mas ok ang 476 muna to increase your points.

when in au, u may get the australian relevant work exp and then take the exam yung Accredited Community Language for more add'l points.

all the best isko/iska!

@Captain_A Thank you! Will probably do the second option. Fresh grad pa lang kasi ako and I'm estimating by the time I leave for Au around 1yr work experience pa lang meron ako. Kailangan ko siguro din i-exhaust pa yung NAATI, PYear, and possibly Spouse Points para magka-pagasa sa 189.

Thank you again for the input. :smile:

hi. pag po ba nag submit ng eoi sa skills select directly sa states or applied na sa lahat?

Hi! i'm just curious and confused about states requiring "employment contract" or "current job offer" for state nomination. Mandatory requirement po ba talaga to or pwede pa din mag-submit ng EOI kahit wala pang job offer? Makakakuha po ba ng job offer before getting visa 491/190? almost all po kasi ng opening I checked require a valid work rights in Australia. Thanks!

Hello po. I'm struggling to get Employment Reference from my previous and current employer. How do I proceed with statutory declaration? Ano po ginawa nyo para mapasa requirement na to sa CPAA? Ito lang po talaga pending ko. Nakakaiyak na. Salamat po ng marami sa sasagot. Godbless and Thank you po.

Hello kabayan! May pathway po ba ang midwifery dito sa NSW or mas safe mag nursing? Matatapos na kasi cert ng kapatid ko next year and we’re not sure if she will take Midwifery or Nursing after. San po ba mas malaking chance for PR? Salamat po! 🙂

Hello po, tanong ko lang po regarding dun sa new changes ngayong Nov regarding sa if single or defacto. may defacto po kasi ako na naisubmit EOI since January na may english at assessment pero that time 5 points lang naclaim namin. pero nito pong new changes, naging 10pts na po automatically. However po, nung iuupdate na namin ulit yung EOI, nawawala yung data nya for assessment na dating andun. naging tendency po tuloy, nagpalit ng DATE OF EFFECT yung EOI kasi parang nireentry yung paglagay nya ng assessment.

meron po bang nakaranas nun dito recently? nagupdate po kasi ako ng score sana ng PTE, kaso yung assessment biglang nawala dun ng defacto. kaya nagiba na din tuloy yugn DATE OF EFFECT. na sabi po daw based on rounds of invitations may bearing daw din po yung date of effect. 🙁

thank you po sainyong lahat and God bless!

Hi, good day! I'm new here but a lurker since a month ago. I just want to ask or clarify for the 189 visa where you can claim points for your spouse. This is the scenario:

My husband is an ECE and i'm a nurse, both of us are under 33y.o. we are about to take the english exam. He is the primary applicant.

In order for him get additional points from me, i need to at least have a competent english exam (+5points), right?
How can he claim another 5points from me for the "positive skill assessment"? Do i need to have a separate assessment from the nursing assessment body? (Im really confused on this part)

Thanks for those who'll take their time to reply... God bless.

I would suggest na ikaw ang mag primary applicant. More than 10,000 ang quota for skilled nurses every year. Kahit na naghihigpit ang Australia sa migration, mataas ang demand at need nang nurses dahil ageing population ang country na ito.

Noon, may choice ang nurses to either take 1-2 years conversion program (Bachelors) or 3 month bridging program para maging licensed Australian nurse (ANMAC) then afterwards, you’ll get the AHPRA Skills Assessment. Madali din ma sponsor sa hospitals lalo na sa regional areas (depende din sa specialisation mo pala)

May OBA na iniintroduce ngayon, explore mo yung option na yun. For now, Step 1 is mag take ka nang OET or PTE. Need mo maka score ata na 7 (ielts equivalent convert mo nalang) sa lahat ng modules as minimum.

On the other hand, less expense (i would assume) sa ECE kasi they would need to submit a CDR (competency report) to get Skills assessment from Engineers Australia, sa tingin ko mataas ang competition para magkaron ng invitation unless high pointers kayo.

I have a nurse sister and an engineer brother here in Australia, my sister got invited with 65 points only (State Sponsored, VIC)

Madali din sya nakahanap ng work as nurse at na sponsoran sya ng hospital habang naghihintay noon nang PR grant nya.

Hi, everyone!

If ever bah, nagrerefund bah sila ng visa fee if i-withdraw? It just crossed my mind na to consider state sponsorship kasi halos lahat focus ng DHA lately is sa regional areas. Marami pa sa 189, some even lodged 2018 pa, and still waiting for their grants while my mate got his grant after 2 months lang (190).

Question lang po. Can I combine my experience as an external auditor and general accountant/finance manager?

robinsyreyes

Mga Sirs and Ma'ams,

Para dun sa mga nagpaplan kung anung visa kukunin, and to see kung gano kadami yung competition sa field nyo on a specific visa. You can check the DHA's FOI page to see the recent trends. Good luck and God bless 🙂

Yes, ma-claim mo sya. 189 ka ba? But I guess it's the same rule for other visa subclasses.

thank you so much for the info.

The thing is, i don't have a 2-3years bedside/hospital experience as a nurse. Though i can explore the the OBA option, i dont think i still have the skills or the confidence to practice nursing in a hospital setting unless mag refresher ako. Kaya si hubby po ung primary kasi at least 8years experience niya sa field niya. So, 5 points lng tlga macclaim namin for spouse with competent kung siya ung primary? Tama po ba? Is 80-85 points a high pointer for 189? Or not anymore with the new scoring?

JHONIEL

Lahat po ng visa subclass nilodge namin, 189,190, 491. Hindi kasi pasok ang course ng wife ko sa occupation list. Well mas ok un makktulong si wife sakin to add 5 points. Hinahabol ko kasi ung 85 points sa 189 baka makachamba pa. Thanks!
