What are the OPTIONS for nurses

paanfsurn

@kymme So basically naka kuha ka po employer sa una palang? At may edge un sa state. Yung iba kasi hindi nakakakuha ng employer na mag sponsor. May naisip nga po ako if iretake ko po ang pte para makuha ang 79 and up sa writing ko para superior ung points ko para maging 70 points na ko nyan. Db ok lang po yun combine naman po ang score ng pte basta taken within 6 mos? Accepted po ba combuned scores sa state nom?

@paanfsurn its nit employer sponsored po. iba po yun. state sponsored po. gusto lng ng state n highly employable ka. although nit a requirement, for vic. idk about other tates.

@paanfsurn Medyo may katagalan ang 189 invites ngayon kasi from 3000, it’s down to 300 ang nabibigyan ng invitation. Kaya ang madalas na naiinvite yung may 70-75 points.

With the 190, nagclose ang Queesland for RNs until July of this year. Even the 457 Visa, mas matagal din ang grant ngayon.

@Cassey if ever po ba inaacept po sa 190 yung combined score sa pte na 2 sitting within 6mos?

What if nag retake po ako para makuha ang superior sa pte coz 79 above ang LRS ko except sa writing po na 75 lang. accepted po ba combibed score sa 190?

Cassey

@paanfsurn I’m not sure, you have to check the English requirement for each of the individual state as it varies from state to state.

sa AHPRA lang po ung 2 sittings @paanfsurn . Sa PR process, isa lang.

Hello po.. this is a question regarding immigration requirements both 189 and 190. Is there a need to submit SSS info and contribution? if yes, paano po yun makuha, may online ba? how about Tax? for someone based 10 years overseas, ok na yung tax info from the country your based at? no need sa pinas? thanks ahead for clarifications 🙂

Hello po! Kakareceive ko lang po ng invite today. May tanong lang po ako before ako maglodge ng 189 visa. Currently po kasi waiting ako ng grant ko sa 457 visa. Last week lang po ako naglodge ng 457. tapos bigla naman po ako na-invite for 189 ngayon. Ano po best ko gawin?

Should I wait na ma-grant sa 457 bago ako mag lodge ng 189?

Mag lodge na po ako ng 189 ngayon kahit waiting pa ko sa 457 grant?

Thanks po!

@LovellaEllen Afaik, pandagdag lang po ang SSS info and contributions as proof of paid work... di man po sya required. Same goes true with ITR. Of course, you have ITR if you are working in the Phils so if you're not, then no need.

Some OFWs contribute to SSS as OFW/Voluntary Members... you can do a screenshot your member data and list of contributions if you have access to <a href="https://www.sss.gov.ph/">MySSSOnline</a>, and you can enrol if you do not have access yet, assuming you have recent contributions. Otherwise, you have to go to your nearest SSS Office and request to have those printed.

@jammmy Wow!!! Congrats!!!

Processing times for 189 visa applications can take 9-12 months according to <a href="https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/about/access-accountability/service-standards/global-visa-citizenship-processing-times">DHA website</a>.

Based on your situation, you can either do the following:

Cancel your 457 application and lodge your 189. However, since 457 implies that you have an employer as sponsor which initiated the process you will have to discuss the situation with them because this would result in additional delay in commencing work with them.
I suppose that since you were able to lodge the 457, you have beaten the cut off period. Just the other day I was checking and 457 now indicates DISCONTINUED as per immi website. Last time, with all documents (both from employer and applicant) are in place 457 visa processing took about a little more than a month. Assuming, it will still be the same, you can wait for a month or two for the outcome of 457 application, commence working with your employer/sponsor and then lodge your 189. Anyway, you have 6 months grace period after invitation to lodge.

@jammmy Congrats! Are you currently in Au? What Visa are you holding? Before you withdraw or cancel any Visa application make sure that you have a valid visa that lets you stay lawlfully here in Au. Are you staying here on a Bridging Visa (from the 457 ) at the moment? If you will cancel the 457 , it automatically cancels the Bridging Visa that comes with it which will leave you unlawful IF you are staying here on that Bridging Visa.

Don’t do anything in haste. I don’t think telling your employer will help at this stage especially that it was just lodge a week ago. I think it’s best to tell them once you have submitted your PR application. Read your contract as well and see if you’re breaking any of the clauses.

Lastly, before you lodge your PR application, make sure that you have uploaded all the needed documents for a chance to a Direct Grant otherwise it will be a LONG wait if you missed to upload something.

@jammmy tricky. just make sure ma nas huli ma grant grant ang 189 mo. kasi pag na grant ang 189 first then you forgot to cancel your 457 application and na grant din, yung last visa grant ang effective

jammmy

@cucci Thank you po!Mukhang I'll go for option number 2 based po sa nasabi nyo, mas beneficial po sya sakin.

Salamat po uli! Hopefully ma-grant po agad ang 457 ko. 🙂

jammmy

@Cassey Nsa pinas po ako at the moment. I was actually waiting for my 189 invitation last year pa and just discovered recently na mas mataas na points pala yung iniinvite nila so I took PTE para maging 75 pts ako, luckily naging 75 at na-invite po ako. Kaso nung panahon na naiinip ako sa paghihintay ng 189 tinry ko maghanap ng sponsor online at may nag-hire naman sakin. kaya mejo nag-overlap ngayon.

Thank you po! I'll review my contract and will do my research dito sa forum for the documents I need to prepare in lodging a 189 visa. 🙂

jammmy

@kymme Thank you po! I'll keep that in mind. Unahin ko na po muna tong 457. 🙂

kymme

@jammmy dont forget na may ilan days ka lang pra mg lodge dun sa invitation ng 189. idk if 30 or 60 days un. i lodged the next day agad kasi.

Justin

@jammmy basta dont forget to cancel your 457 if balak mo antayin kung ano mauunang visa kasi the most recent visa granted is yun yung magiging effective visa mo. All the best more power to nurses!

Cassey

@jammmy Nasa Pinas ka pala. Just a heads up, At the moment medyo matagal ang grant ng 457. We have a friend who applied last January dito siya sa Au now on a TV, hanggang ngayon wala pang grant kahit na pinaexpedite na ng company. And if you’ll based it on the Global Processing Times, it’s 5 to 11 mos of wait. Anyway, meron ka pa namang ilang months to sort it out bago maexpire EOI ng 189 mo. All the best,

Cassey

@dy3p Coming from a 457 visa to 189, ano ang masasuggest mo? 🙂

LovellaEllen

Thanks Cucci for clarification! 🙂
