Just saw this sa isang fb group. So wala ng income requirement ang pag apply ng Visa 191? Good news ito sa mga Visa 491 holders 🙂
yes wala na yan. Sa wakas makaka apply na ako when my 491 crosses the 3 years mark sa Oct haha

Since wala na 'yung income requirement, meaning be 'yung grant date na ang basis ng "3 years" kung kaya mo mag-provide ng tatlong notice of assessment from ATO? Just thinking about it now :wink:

Depende. Some people I know na nakatira sa non-regional areas when they applied for 491, they moved to regional areas after a month or so ng grant. So yung 3 yrs magsstart on the day na nasa regional sila. Others like me na nasa regional na ever since, grant date ang basis ng 3 yrs.

I understand what you mean.

Medyo vague lang kasi 'yung statements pertaining to requirements. Especially if you're coming outside of Australia. Wala na 'yung nakalagay na you must live in a designated area for 3 years. Nakalagay na lang eh hold the eligible visa for 3 years, which makes me wonder kung meron ka 3 notice of assessments na mapapakita and na-follow mo naman 'yung 491 conditions.

Anyway, let's wait for further news moving forward 🙂

You can only get the 3 notice of assessments if you work in Aus, and while holding the 491 visa dapat nasa regional ka lang kasi yung ang restriction ng visa. 3 yrs stay sa regional and 3 yrs tax return assessments, yan lang talaga need ma fulfill. Do you hold a 491 as well?

Eto ung 'should live in a designated area', sa page ng 491

rule ng 491 na tumira ka sa regional area for 3 yrs, dun sya nakastate kaya parang hindi na nililinaw much yan sa 191 kasi sa 491 sya nakadetail. So basta 3 yrs sa regional and 3 yrs tax notice, pwede na sa 191. Do you hold 491 as well?

Yup 491 holder din ako. Isa rin sa nababahala sa mga recent news haha

Hmm parang hindi siya rule sa 491. I mean rule na tumira ka sa designated regional area. Pero condition para ma-consider ka sa 191 visa 'yung to live in designated regional area for 3 years, I think? Which makes me think about it again kasi hold the eligible visa for 3 years na ang nakalagay sa website.

Nababahala ka in what way? Do you have any tough circumstances? Yan lang talaga huling hurdle - malinaw yung income reqt so that clarified a lot. Hindi ka ba nakatira sa regional?

Sorry exaggerated pala 'yung nababahala, curious na lang gamitin ko haha

I'm all good naman and I live in Adelaide. Excited lang masyado mag-isip about 191 pero less than a year pa lang ako nandito. Of course, mas maagang maka-apply ng 191, mas okay kaya sumagi lang sa utak ko 'yung question ko.

For context pala, June 2022 na-grant visa ko, pero nag-move ng Dec 2022.

Yup no issues naman sa income requirement. sa snapshot na pinakita mo regarding 491 visa conditions:

live, work and study in a designated regional area (YES ako)
apply for permanent residence.... blah blah.... You can't apply for other permanent visas until you have held your subclass 491 visa for 3 years (technically, I "have held" my visa for 3 years ng June 2025)

And then sa 191 visa requirements naman:

Sorry baka slow lang ako. hahaha

I think I'm getting to see where you're at. You mean kung may way maka apply ng 191 ng mas maaga? Kasi pwede ka kumuha ng tax return assessment kahit di ka full year nagwork e, like kahit Dec 2022 ka dumating, makaka apply ka ng tax return for 2022-2023 ngayong July. With this line of thinking, by July 2025, makakabuo ka ng 3 tax return assessments while only being in Australia for 2.5 yrs. Tama ba ang thought process ko?

In that time, 6 mos nalang nafulfill mo na ang pagtira ng 3 yrs sa regional. Mahirap na kabahan ng todo na maglodge ng 191 knowing na ikaw mismo may doubts sa 3 yrs stay sa regional. Saglit nalang din yan so best thing to do is to wait for 3 yrs na talaga.

If you want, by the time June 2025 arrives, 3 yrs mo na hawak ang 491 mo so pwede ka na mag apply ng ibang visa like 189 o 190. Kaso panibagong gastos yan sa visa fee, 4k+ uli and most likely irerenew mo PTE, skills assessment and medical exam. Mas practical na mag 191 ka nalang.

Yup same boat tayo sa 1st paragraph.

Not really kinakabahan naman, curious lang that's why I asked my question 🙂 What I am pointing out is 'yung 191 visa requirement na "hold the eligible visa for 3 years", which technically I will achieve by June 2025. And wala kasing specific na nakalagay na "live, work, study in regional area for 3 years". But yeah, no problem naman if mag-wait pa ng additional 6 months. And too early to speculate din kasi kahit mismo sila sa immigration, naguguluhan sila sa transition sa 191 visa.

Yup sumagi rin sa isip ko na pwede na rin mag-apply ng 189 or 190. But will see by that time. Baka smooth na ang processing ng 191 visa.

All good mate, thanks for the convo and insights.

Cheers man, 3 yrs sounds like a long time pero enjoyin mo nalang while you wait. Been in the same boat, kung ano ano na inisip ko na way para mabeat ang sistema to get the PR asap hahaha. Lilipas din oras agad, at least ikaw alam mo na no income reqt na sa 191 ngayon so less pressure. Back in 2020 nung na grant ako super pressured ako makahanap ng work na aabot sa 54k hahaha. All the best!

Kasi pwede ka kumuha ng tax return assessment kahit di ka full year nagwork e, like kahit Dec 2022 ka dumating, makaka apply ka ng tax return for 2022-2023 ngayong July. With this line of thinking, by July 2025, makakabuo ka ng 3 tax return assessments while only being in Australia for 2.5 yrs. Tama ba ang thought process ko?

In that time, 6 mos nalang nafulfill mo na ang pagtira ng 3 yrs sa regional. Mahirap na kabahan ng todo na maglodge ng 191 knowing na ikaw mismo may doubts sa 3 yrs stay sa regional. Saglit nalang din yan so best thing to do is to wait for 3 yrs na talaga.

If you want, by the time June 2025 arrives, 3 yrs mo na hawak ang 491 mo so pwede ka na mag apply ng ibang visa like 189 o 190. Kaso panibagong gastos yan sa visa fee, 4k+ uli and most likely irerenew mo PTE, skills assessment and medical exam. Mas practical na mag 191 ka nalang.

Yup same boat tayo sa 1st paragraph.

Not really kinakabahan naman, curious lang that's why I asked my question 🙂 What I am pointing out is 'yung 191 visa requirement na "hold the eligible visa for 3 years", which technically I will achieve by June 2025. And wala kasing specific na nakalagay na "live, work, study in regional area for 3 years". But yeah, no problem naman if mag-wait pa ng additional 6 months. And too early to speculate din kasi kahit mismo sila sa immigration, naguguluhan sila sa transition sa 191 visa.

Yup sumagi rin sa isip ko na pwede na rin mag-apply ng 189 or 190. But will see by that time. Baka smooth na ang processing ng 191 visa.

All good mate, thanks for the convo and insights.
Cheers man, 3 yrs sounds like a long time pero enjoyin mo nalang while you wait. Been in the same boat, kung ano ano na inisip ko na way para mabeat ang sistema to get the PR asap hahaha. Lilipas din oras agad, at least ikaw alam mo na no income reqt na sa 191 ngayon so less pressure. Back in 2020 nung na grant ako super pressured ako makahanap ng work na aabot sa 54k hahaha. All the best!

Haha yes paps, parang ang bilis nga ng oras dito sa Australia. Totoo nga talaga.

Buti na lang talaga kahit papano may maayos na work now. All the best bro!

@haringkingking Medyo anxious nga rin ako about sa 191 visa kahit waiting pa rin ako ng visa grant for 491. Same region din tayo, SA din ang nagnominate sa kin for 491. Hoping na magrant na rin kami at hope to see you there. All the best!

190 is state sponsored, 191 is the visa you apply for after spending 3 yrs sa 491/494. Di jka pwede mag apply directly sa 191.

Hi. While you're on 491 entitled ka din ba sa medicare/centerlink benefits or pang PR lang siya? Thanks.

So eto ang latest chika sa 191 application ko, mga marites! charot hehe 🙂

I lodged my 191 visa last March, and by Aug 14 I received an email from Immigration for s56 Request for more information. They were asking for new Australian Police Check for my wrongly spelled name! When I checked my name sa immi account ko, hala biglang nag iba nga yung name ko. So I created cover letter explaining about my wrongly spelled name and attached evidence like passport, 191 Visa Acknowledgement Application, Immi Grant Notice, indicating my full and correct name. Until now waiting pa ako sa response nila. But Im still wondering bakit nag iba spelling ng name ko. Does anyone encounter the same issue sa Immi account nila?

And also Im based here in Darwin, NT working as Data Analyst. Lipat na kayo dito oks ang sahod lalo na pag IT and contractual position 😉

That's weird, probably a glitch? Never heard of this issue before pero you seem to be able to prove na everything else has your correct name so it should be ok. Keep us posted!
