Hello, wala ako makitang forum for Australian graduates (any level of degree). Pwede ba tayo mag discuss dito sa ating journey towards Permanent Residency. Ta

Following this thread. Anyone here na nakapag apply for 485 graduate work visa?

luck_is_on_my_side

@luck_is_on_my_side i think thats the postgrad stream right? Higher education ba course nyo sa au?

@changeiscoming when mag expire student visa? when are you going to lodge your 485? kami ng mga classmates ko kasi on March 15 ang expiration. we're thinking of lodging by Feb na para ma-maximise yung 2 years grad visa. meaning hindi kaagad tumakbo. kaso may nagsasabi na we need to apply within 2 months daw after course completion which will mean by December. so mejo confusing.

Dec 2018 sa akin. I have friends na sa March din.

You are given 6 montha to lodge after finsihinf the course to lodge for 485.

Hi guys! Im a PR and having hard time landing a job. Kaya plan ko mag-aral ng masters hopefully by next year.

Saang uni kayo and anung level eg undergrad, grad? What coursework and how do you finance your studies (which is my biggest challenge)?

May mga nakilala akong international students galing Malaysia, and ang yayaman pala nila. Hahahah...

@audreamer101 anong profession nyo po ba?

Hi! Im a new grad as well. Just finished uni last July and I'm now currently working as a nurse here in QLD. I am not eligible to apply for post grad visa because I only studied for 1.5 yrs, hence I enrolled for an advanced diploma for 32 weeks while waiting for the verdict of my EOI for 190 NSW and 489 FS 🙂 Good luck sa tin lahat!

@MLBS accountant. Kaw ba anung tine-take mo at saang uni?

agentKams

@audreamer101 i suggest finish CPA or CA program rather than do university studies mas malaki chance na maemploy ka even whil doing the program.

audreamer101

@agentKams in progress na ang CPA ko... hopefully by next year matapos ko na.

Anu palang tinake- up mo at saang uni?

agentKams

MLBS

@audreamer101 plan ko palang magtake e. Diploma lang in work health and safety, di ako sa uni para less expenses. Extra pts lang habol ko e hehe

aranayad

with regards to 485 visa, yung english requirement ba for your student visa pwede pa gamitin kapag nag-apply ng 485? in my case kasi 3 yrs yung course na kukunin ko tas 2 yrs lang validity ng IELTS. need ba magretake?

MLBS

@aranayad definitely kasi bago ka pa makatapos ng course expired na ielts mo. Take pte nalang by then para mas madali.
