JCsantos

@TTam, marami na mga advice dito. Iba't ibang perspective. Ultimately, kayo ang bahala kasi kayo ang nakakaalam kung ano tlga ang needs ninyo 🙂

@TTam ate may I ask gano na kayo ka tagal sa Canada? If I were in your shoe I would wait until I get Canadian passport para hindi naman po sayang ang pinaghirapan nyu dyan and you don't really need to cut the ties with CA in case things won't work in AU.

I think matagal pa open ang AU and considering the population and land area in AU sobra dami nila lands kesa sa tao so they really need immigrants to fill in their country. And also ask Gods help baka kc dyan nya kayo itInakda, some of us here in AU have initial plans to CA pero fate brought us here in AU. Just for peace of mind, I suggest to get Canadian Passport if you're halfway of completing the require residency. I think mas madali ata ang processing sa AU at straight forward. I myself just apply on my own with just research and reading in skillselect website also with the help of some here in forum. Kaya basa basa lang Po kayo d2 marami kayo nakukuha no need to get agent kaya naman asikasuhin nakatipid pa kayo. Save your money for other expenses.

Ako nga nagiisa pinsan lang meron ako sa AU the rest are in US and CA but majority are still in PH including my mommy. I consider CA as my first choice kc ang lapit sa US mabibisita ko pamangkin ko, mas mura at feel ko ang CA kesa sa AU mas marami mapuntahan. Pero winter scars me at yun job availability I'm a Java Developer some say marami naman daw vacancy but still I don't have experience working in that country kaya it's hard to tell but I'm open for any job kahit blue job for the mean time. I also have same thinking when I go to AU next year. Yun lang mas mura talaga sa AU pa punta pinas now that Cebupacific has open route to Sydney hope there's more demand to it para macontinue ang service nila. At sana laid back at malus ag mag leave bakasyon. I hate stress kc life is short should enjoy life.

Nakakatawa isipin na vice versa tayo ako inisip ang Canada kayo naman inisip ang AU. For me I guess to know where suits me the best is to try both pero sa ngayon AU muna until I get citizenship then let see from there. Have you heard about CA plans to change the # of years of residency from 3 to 6 years? It is just a proposal from Congress I hope they won't push that bill. And I saw a picture in my friends fb, as early September bumagsak na yun snow. Suppose to be summer still bigla winter agad sad sila coz it would be the whole year na until summer gets back. Hehe, hirap talaga ng sobra lamig hirap din ng sobra init.

Good luck sis sa mga plans in the future and prayers will help u decide.

@vhoythoy oo nga po, 2 years din po ang processing ng application namin. Medyo matagal nga po ang processing, at unpredictable - yung iba 6 mos lang, yun iba naman po na kasabay namin halos di pa din nakakaalis. Maraming salamat po sa advice. Yup, mag back read lang po kami dito and pag may question, post lang po ako.

TTam

@bookworm Thank you for your insights. Plan nga namin ay hindi muna i give up ang PR kasi if citizenship baka sobra matagalan pero depende pa din po. Ang alam ko naman ata, hindi naman nila aalisin ang PR if mawala ka sa canada for1 yr - but Im not sure, ipagtatanong pa po namin. Atleast lang na yung baby namin ay citizen na sya, if in case na gusto nya dito in the future.

TTam

@orengoreng kung pwede lang mag switch for 1 year ikaw dito at sa AU naman kami just to experience if which is better ba, hehe!

Actually, ang ayaw lang naman namin talaga dito is winter and malayo sa pinas. Gastos sa pamasahe.. Hehe! Our parents are quite old na, and gusto naman namin sila mabisita once in a while, ayaw din naman kasi nila sumama dito in case pwede na kami mag sponsor. Nag visit sila dito for six months, and they want to go back na agad sa pinas, haha! And lastly, Nasanay lang din kami siguro sa Singapore na medyo alive at super mainit.

2 years na kami dito, and habang tumatagal humihigpit na sila. From temporary foreign workers, to caregiver and yun nga yung sinasabi mo na bill regarding sa citizenship.

We're thinking if God permits na makakuha si husband ng work or mgka visa kami, hindi ko sure kung pwedeng mawala dito ng 1 yr without cancelling our PR.. Eto siguro yung irresearch namin bago kami gumawa ng next step. Yung baby namin is citizen na so if paglaki nya at mas gusto nya pa din dito atleast hindi na sya mahirapan.

You should try din dito if you reAlly want to, ok naman eh. In terms of work, marami naman. Both me and my husband found a job after a month, cguro snwerte lang din. Kaso pag nag recession daw ang US damay din kami kasi dependent daw sila dun. Just be ready for winter and di ka naman siguro malulungkot dahil andito ang relatives mo.

Yup, we're praying na iguide Nya kami sa decision na gagawin namin.. 🙂

Thank you so much for taking the to read my post! Message me pag nasa AU ka na ha! Good luck din! 🙂

Halos perfected na ng Australia ang immigration model nila nowadays so ang changes maybe to include/ not to include a certain skillset siguro or the cap for a certain year pero theres a lot of ways/ visa types to be in Australia lalo na may Canadian passport ka. Plus income din sa gov't yan immigration fees and yun nga malaki ang land area against population. Mukhang maganda naman ang relationship ng Australia and Canada ngaun so may mga possible mutual agreements yan along the way. Konting patience na lang and you can enjoy both worlds =)

Yung mga nasa forums dati ng Canada nagpasa early 2000's parang 4-7 years waiting hahaha. mAbilis nung 2009 ata, then ngaun they are experimenting pa. KAya parang tumama sa lotto ung mga nabigyan ng pr visa hahaha.

Ah galing ka pala ng Singapore kaya na compare mo hahaha. Uu nga, living in Singapore is like living in a huge city daming acitivities. Ngaun lalabas na iphone 6 cgurado haba na ng pila nito =). Province na nila dito ung woodlands, pasir ris and boonlay na hindi paring mukhang province parang subdivisions lang unless mag pulau ubin hehehe. Parang extension din ng pinas, pwede ka umuwi over the weekend kapag trip mo. I'm going 6 years na dito and have the feeling ng nasasakal na. Kaya Australia na.

TTam

@vhoythoy Galing din pala kayo ng Singapore! Hehe! Halos 4 years din po kami dun. nakakamiss yung feeling na pag may gusto ka bilhin, lakad ka lang dahil kahit saang station ata ng train ay may mall, haha! Tsaka yun din po plan namin mag baby, which is mahirap kapag dun sa singapore dahil di namin makakasama sya if ever. Kaya nag isip kami ibang way. Sa woodlands po pala kami before! Hehe! Probinsya na nga kasi lapit na sa johor. Haha!

Yup malapit sa lahat, ngaun sa may Yewtee condo kami 5 mins walk sa mrt and mall. Dati naman sa cantonment ilang bus stop lang sa vivo city tapos 10 mins walk lang office sa international plaza hahaha. Sa office malapit naman sa food centers. Continuous ang progress nila dito like lau pa sat was re-opened and much improve, additional mrt line, shopping centers, etc. KAhit gaano nga kalayo parang ang bilis dahil maayos mrt/ bus lalo nakapag naka post paid plan ka browsing/ youtube lang sa iphone parang kisapmata nasa destination ka na haha. Sobrang convenient un nga lang naghihigpit na din dito tska gusto ko maiba na din muna and for future of family syempre. Parang dumaan nga lang halos 6 years ko dito bilis ng panahon.

@vhoythoy

Wow lau pa sat, tapa king.. Hehe!

Sa northoaks naman po kami malapit sa woodlands, lapit lang po pala tayo. Sayang di namin kayo na meet dyan. Hehe!

Thank you po pala sa advise and hopefully ay makapagdecide kami ng tama. Good luck po sa inyo! 🙂

Dahil gusto ko i-share ang tuwa ko,..

Nag Australia ako para sa bonggang bonggang tax return (3000+ AUD) for 2014!!..

pero sabi nila, one-off raw ito kaya ihahanda ko na ang sarili kong madismaya next year..But still, sobrang laki ng tax return, mas mataas pa sa gross sahod ko ng kalahating taon sa Pilipinas.hehehe.

bookworm

pano at bakit daw one-off lang?

rareking

Why Australia? Nicole. Kidman.

Hehe. Seriously ---- 5 out of 20 cities are in the The EIU's Global Liveability Ranking 2014 on most liveable city in the world (Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Perth and Brisbane). So why not?

JCsantos

Australia is the shortest ( 8 Months min in our exp ) / easiest ( IELTS, work cert etc point system ) and the more chances you can migrate to western country compared to US/Uk/Canada

TasBurrfoot

<blockquote rel="bookworm">pano at bakit daw one-off lang?</blockquote>

Because by next year if continuous ang trabaho, ma normalised na ang tax ni @mhej...

Now kasi, he/she prolly has been working just for a few months before the end of financial year however the tax that is deducted from the salary is based on the annual figure.

So ayun, come tax filing, andaming sobrang tax na binawas...

Hope it is making sense.
