Are You An Engineer? (Visa 476)

iammaxwell1989

@chantelle Thanks. When are you required to leave for Oz?

I think you could still include your bf as a de facto partner even if you did not live in together as long as you are able to prove the relationship. In your case however, the application of secondary applicant will be another process, which means you need to pay $300+ again. In my case sabay kaya isang bayad lang. What i'm preparing are:

Statement of joint bank account
House contract with deposit receipts
pictures
declarations from us
declarations from relatives, friends, etc.

EE ako, batch 2011. =)

So totoo naman na pagkatapos ng 'training' mo sa Australia, malaki na chance para magka PR visa?

Tingin ko nagkikita kita dn tayo nina Captain_A and vinpack sa CEAT canteen or sa Engmeet before. Anyway, mukhang sinulit mo talaga ung binigay sa iyo ng DIAC ha. Sagad sa Feb, para ba ito sa 3 year overseas exp?

@Captain_A - bisita ka sa amin d2 sa sydney. Sagot ko na ang usual, jokes.

@vinpack - Gumtree. Hehe. Pwede yan.

@adrielli hi! i just want to ask if the curriculum vitae that is requested for 476 visa must be notarized and be sent together with the employment certificates? if so, what should i do if i attached a CV i created. i thought at first it will be enough to just submit a created CV.

chantelle

chantelle

pwede pa natin pagisahin ung thread?meron din kasi bout visa 476 hehe

iammaxwell1989

@chantelle Actually di pa ko naglolodge, december pa. But almost complete na documents.

My 'forecasted' timeline is:

Dec 2012 : lodge application

March 2013: Visa approval

Jan 2014: Leave for Au

That's about 1 year after I lodge my application.

I'm considering perth or melbourne, most likely melbourne. I did some research and melbourne seems to be the best place for new migrants.

Wala akong relatives sa Oz kaya medyo kabado. Kw ba? Sana madaming Pinoy sa Melbourne.

chantelle

Okay naman sa melbourne.andun relatives ko. pero i think madami sa sydney na mga 476ers hehehe

iammaxwell1989

madami nga sa sydney. Yung mga kilala ko ECE and CoE nasa Syd.

@iammaxwell1989 january pa planu ko magtake ng ielts,. currently converting my checking account to joint account namen para sa de facto proof pati ibang mga docs.. planu ko din sagarin ang 2year deadline ng pag lodge ng visa para maka 3 yrs exp ako..october 2013 p naman kasi.. mas maganda kasi if kahit panu may exp kana pagdating oz.. sa perth ako andun relative ko para tipid..

@chantelle gud idea yung talk sa ceat about sa visa 476, d kasi sya masyado sikat sa elbi..

@ghypez cge 2014 pa ko jan sayang yung 3 yrs exp e.. PR na siguru kayu nun ni @vinpack pagdating ko..

iammaxwell1989

@Captain_A : ako din sana gusto kong sagarin yung 2 year deadline. Kaya lang gusto ko din mag allocate ng time in case magkaproblema. Si @chantelle kilala ng friend kong chem eng from elbi. Palagay ko kayo din. =)

Captain_A

oo nga tama ka in case magkaproblema.. itatanung ko na lang kay @ghypez sino si @chantelle konti lang kilala kong Chem Eng..04 din ako..

ang taas ng ielts mu.. sayang yung speaking.. pa-remark mu kaya? 20points din yun..

iammaxwell1989

Baka magtry ako magparemark. I inquired with BC just now. Remarking costs GBP60 (PhP 4000). If you get higher grades, the fee will be reimbursed. If not, say goodbye to your 4k.

Good thing though, there is no chance of getting lower scores. =)

Captain_A

self review k lng? or nagreview center ka? share your exp nmn sa ielts..kabado na ako e

good planning..

you may also consider na merong allowance to make the entry..

so kahit approved na ang visa mo ngaun, merong atleast 1 year enter AU..

so my point is, check mo kung kelan ang 'optimal' date na mag-apply considering these 3 factors:

2yr period after graduation
1 year allowance to enter AU after visa is granted
and your 3 yrs na work experience.

iammaxwell1989

@Captain_A I reviewed on my own as I did not have the luxury of time and money to spend on review centers.

Sa IELTS, time is your greatest friendnemy, so practice with timer. I remember sa writing test during the last 30 seconds ko lang sinulat yung conclusion ko. You will not have the time to count the words, so know how many words your 'typical' paragraph has. Sa speaking I dunno, swertehan siguro sa topic. Medyo off topic yata ito dito. hehe.
