<blockquote rel="mjersey">Hello po sa lahat! Newbie lang din po ako dito but before becoming a member e I already found this website very useful & informative esp to aspirants like us.
Hoping po na me makabasa nitong query ko, meron po ba dito na naging successful sa application nila even if nka "limited status" ung nom occupation sa ACT, specifically po sa architectural draftsperson? Pashare namn po sana ng story/experience nila for inspirations sa mag uumpisa pa lang.</blockquote>
See my timeline kapatid...asa limited occupation ung job ko and almost closed na nung nagsubmit ako ng job ad verification and 2-days closed na nung magsubmit ako for SS sa ACT then pero may buffer sila na one week. nag inquire ako about it, they would advice naman.
took me about 4 more months bago lumabas ung result, hinintay ata nila ung 1 Jul para sa mga changes sa policy ng DIBP. Ung CO ask me to submit another 2-3 job ads by God's grace naman is nakahanap naman akong 3. And after 2 weeks, nakatangap na ako ng nomination from DIBP sponsored by ACT.
Currently di ko pa naman masabi na successful na ung buong application process pero almost there na, just need to clear ung last hurdle so I can say na almost 75% na. I would look at it as 4 stage sa case ko.
Skills Assessment - done
IELTS - done
State Nomination - done
DIBP VISA grant - di na ako sa stage na to
Keep on praying lang and be on a lookout sa mga updates. Check mo din ung ibang state baka nag-open na din sila. Ung sa akin as ICT Trainer sa ACT lang then currently closed na pero nag-open sa South Australia right now and medyo malaki ung need sa SA pero naging ok na ACT kaya diretso na ng ACT.
