leifh0824 Hi..Just need to confirm..If I am the main applicant and my husband has aunt who is a pr in AU, can his aunt be our sponsor in applying visa 489? Thanks in advance
Exile Mag bossing, gaano usually katagal bago maka receive ng invitation for 489 after mag lodge ng EOI Cheers,
Exile @StarJhan, thanks sa reply, matanong ko na din baka may idea ka based sa info dito https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Allocation-dates-for-General-Skilled-Migration-applications/designated-areas about designated areas for 489, yung uncle ko sa Sydney sa Glenwood NSW sya nakatira pede ba nya ako ma-sponsor and pede ba ako mag work sa Sydney pero titira ako outside Sydney ? Thanks
Lex55 @Exile hi if you are applying under 489 visa Family Sponsored then you need to know first if your N.O. is available sa state kung nasaan ang relative mo. Plus ang alam ko same state ka dapat mag stay and mag work (same as your relative)
Exile @StarJhan, yep nag research ako kagabi and found out na meron lang regional areas designated for 489 and dapat yung N.O is availabe sa R.A, and pinaka malapit na nakita ko is Far South Coast which is 3 hours away from Sydney, last option ko mag 489 try ko muna magretake ng PTE for additional 10pts. Cheers,
rich88 @Exile 489 is strictly for regional areas in AU. You should stay and work within these regional areas until you're granted 887. Yun yung nakasulat sa visa conditions once you are granted one. Be careful kasi may nabasa akong cases sa kabilang forum na nacancel yung 489 nila kasi nahuli sila na umalis sa regional area. Goodluck!
Exile @rich88 thanks sa info, nag basabasa nga ako nde kami pede mag stay sa area ng uncle ko meron regional development area sa NSW kung san pede mag stay ang 489 pinakamalapit sa Sydney na meron ung job code ko is far south coast. Mag try muna ako mag retake ng PTE baka sakali makakuha pa ng additional 10pts para sa 189 at 190 Cheers,
ajet02 Hi for those who are taking subclass 489 visas make sure na talagang wala na kayong option to get a permanent visa (e.g. 190 or 189) otherwise kung may chance na makakuha kayo permanent resident thru extra points like IELTS or PTE take the chance kahit ilang ulit pa. I am a holder of 489 once, ngayon permanent resident na ko but I realized marami akong namiss na work opportunity since regional areas lang ang pwede sa akin where limited ang job openings (marami ka pa kalaban na mga ibang lahi). It took me almost 2 yrs and 4 months before I became permanent resident at tyaga lang talaga. No medicare, no centrelinks, etc.
ajet02 I'm not discouraging those who applied for 489 visa, I just wanted to share my experience having the said visa. I did not retake my IELTS (I got a band of 6), nanghinayang din ako sa exam kasi 10k pesos din yun tsaka tinamad na ko sabi ko pwede na yan may 489 visa naman. Pero naisip ko din sa huli, kung nagretake ako ng IELTS nun at pinilit kong makakuha ng kahit another 5pts or 10pts baka PR na yung nakuha kong visa nun. The cons: extra cost of having a private health insurance (you can opt not to have a private insurance but its very risky since mahal ang gamutan dito sa AU. job opportunities (its given na mas marami talagang trabaho sa big cities like Sydney, Brisbane, etc) some companies hire people who are permanents and citizens only you need to make an effort to have at least 36hrs/week of work for 1 year (although you can do it by having 2 jobs if talagang kulang pa yung oras) nakakakaba mag apply ng 887 this days kasi yung iba kahit kumpleto requirements humihingi pa rin si CO ng additional requirements. (It will take 3-6months or even longer ang process, di ka pa rin pwede umalis sa regional areas while waiting for the visa) The pros: andito ka na sa Australia! Make the most out of it. Pinoy ka kaya mo yan! đŸ™‚
kymme Hi. I would appreaciate if anyone could shed some info on my case. I am currently working in regional Victoria for 3 months already as an RN. I am looking into applying for 489 since kulang ako sa points for 189 or 190. 50 points lang ako so i need the extra 10 sa regional. What is the current waiting time for EOI and processing time once it's lodged? I understand that it varies so just a rough idea. Ano po yung conditions ng 489? Like ilan years dapat ako mg work and stay sa regional? Permanent part time ako since October so im not sure if counted na yun or mg start ng count pgk grant ng 489. Thanks
sef Hi po. Meron po ba ditong holder ng visa 489 for Queensland? I would like to ask for some advice po kung anong lugar po magandang maghanap ng trabaho. hindi po kasi pwede sa Brisbane at wala naman po ako kilala sa QLD kaya wala po ako mapagtanungan. Sana po may makatulong sakin. Thanks.
sef @ajet02 Nung first arrival mo ba sa QLD, dyan ka agad dumerityo sa Toowoomba or Nag Brisbane ka muna? Marami bang engineering related job sa Toowoomba? Thanks nga pala sa reply.
kymme @ajet02 pwede ba mg 489 tapos 190? yung hindi na muna antayin ang 489 na matapos? pero live and work p din sa regional. kasi si partner ko, gusto mg apply ng police dito and need nila PR na.
