General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

Cassey · May 2016

@Olrac321 Ahhh, yep need ang TB screening for permanent visa application.

Olrac321 · May 2016

@Cassey ilang days result ng medical ng mga bata? tsaka paano ung tb screening? blood test po ba?

Cassey · May 2016

@Olrac321 Dito sa Au within 5 days meron na yung result directly uploaded na sa immiaccount. Yung tb screening may 2 ways, through Tuberculin skin test at TB Blood test.

Olrac321 · May 2016

@Cassey Salamat sa pag sagot. pwede ba sabay gawin ung tuberculin test at blood test? kasi na bcg ung 2 anak ko baka mag positive.

Cassey · May 2016

@Olrac321 No worries. Either of the 2 yung gagawin.. Based sa nabasa ko yung skin test which is the tuberculin test may cases na nagpapositive yung may bcg vaccine kahit na hindi affected yung tao ng TB bacteria pero when it comes to TB Blood test hindi siya affected by prior BCG vaccination. Just inform the staff para aware sila.

Olrac321 · May 2016

@Cassey salamat ng marami. God bless you.

Cassey · May 2016

@Olrac321 No worries, God bless you more.

Need clarifications lang po. I am a civil engineering graduate and working as a planning engineer with a construction company. Will my occupation fall under civil engineering or project builders? san be nakikita ung tasks na kelangan maimatch sa competency report?

tangentph · May 2016

and another thing sa mga naka experience na sa CDR and for other people's information na rin. Example you have worked for 4 companies:

1. Company A = 9 months
2. Company B = 3 years
3. Company C = 11 months
4. Company D = 4 months

Questions:
1. Does EA credit the duration you have worked with the company even if it is just less than a year of work related to your occupation (Company A, B & D)? If so, possible 5 years and work experience, otherwise, 3 years.

2. Sa CDR, you need 3 essays. But since 4 companies, if say, 1 essay per company, pwedeng combine 2 or more companies in an essay?

Baka may makapaglinaw for may understanding and para na rin sa iba.

Thanks in advance.

@tangentph prepare a cdr, planning engineer can be considered as a professional engineer. Project Builder is for Architects, i think.

Yes. But they sometimes deduct years of experience to say you are skilled na

2. Sa CDR, you need 3 essays. But since 4 companies, if say, 1 essay per company, pwedeng combine 2 or more companies in an essay?

You mean career episodes? A career episode can be derived from any of your company. Three career episodes can be from the same company. It is a situation where you are able to perform your tasks applying the engineering principles etc.

tangentph · May 2016

Thanks @se29m, still backreading ung info sa thread na ito at nasa page 184 palang ako and so far for my question above ung sa duration, meron bang naka encounter ng hindi na credit ung work experience kasi less than a year wiht the company.

Meron kasing ganito sa EA booklet:
Documentary evidence of employment (for periods of
12 months or more, or if the employment provide a
basis for a career episode/s)

Is that commulative work experience or with a particular company?

se29m · May 2016

@tangentph it will matter later sa eoi points claiming mo yan.. In your assessment letter from EA, it will indicate the dates of employment that you are deemed skilled and which duration you can claim. To be safe, submit at least a coe per company even if it is less than 12 months.. As the documentary evidence to support such as payslips, tax assessments etc, you will need this later when you lodge your visa.

Yes. But they sometimes deduct years of experience to say you are skilled na

Any idea kung ano standards nila when it comes to deducting the number of years? Like EA has the policy to deduct automatically 1 year from total work experience or as per their judgement case to case basis or kung ano man rule nila so somehow we can anticipate kung ilan ang possibled deductions? If may source of information ka lang naman na na-encounter.

2. Sa CDR, you need 3 essays. But since 4 companies, if say, 1 essay per company, pwedeng combine 2 or more companies in an essay?

Yup. I meant the career episodes of 1000 to 2500 words each. Pano ung topic per episode? San ung source nun? For example, you have worked with one company, 1st career episode will cover this topic. 2nd episode another topic. Kasi you can cover and put up every engineering experience you have had with that company in one career episode e.

Baka may makapaglinaw for may understanding and para na rin sa iba.

Thanks in advance.

Sensya na at madaming tanong. Still not encountered those though I am still backreading. On-going na student visa ko but I want to work on na rin sa PR visa at qualified naman ako. Makaka discount pa sa tuition. Appreciate every bit of your assistance @se29m!

I have follow up clarifications in the quote above.

se29m · May 2016

@tangentph

1. No idea, but they deducted 11 months from my work experience

2. Career episode is not necessarily your work experience per company. It is a situation where you applied and performed professional engineering duties based on the summary statement components.. Pwede nga yung thesis mo eh. Sample if you are a planning engr, maybe discuss when you had a delay in the structure stage of the project and what engineering method and principles and inapply mo

@se29m, thanks again! san ka nakakuha ng format ng CDR? Baka meron ka dyan that I can study for the flow and content that should be in it. Backreading, nakita ko ung "match sa task" and right now hindi ko pa nakikita ung task.

Sensya na ha at dami tanong which I can really get by reading and I am actually doing that. Medyo tight lang din sa time. I am currently in Dubai and kapag lumabas ung student visa ko for AUS I will be in the Phils. after a month. Hoping I can arrange the necessary docs for PR visa before leaving Dubai.

se29m · May 2016

@tangentph cdr is the whole submission.. Career episode, i will send you a sample sa inbox mo

Appreciate it @se29m! Sige antay ko ung sa CDR while I continue researching. I think ung sa CDR part and COE ung pinakamahirap na part sa application.

pinoycoder · May 2016

mga bossing, after mag lodge ng visa, tapos kulang pang ng mga documents, pwede pa bang i upload nun yung mga yun? or dapat iuuplooad na lahat ng docs before lodge para DIRECT GRANT?

se29m · May 2016

@pinoycoder you can only upload documents after lodging/paying for your visa

tangentph · May 2016

Nareceive ko na @se29m. Kaw first recipient sa inbox ko. If it's not too much to ask, is it possible that I can have the MS Word or PDF format of it? Want to check as well ung sa paragraph numbering.

se29m · May 2016

@tangentph i can't hehe. I will send you a pm

pinoycoder · May 2016

@se29m ibig sabihin ba ng lodging is "paying visa fee?" haha. now ko lang naman. :-)

so bossing, after makapaglodge, mag gegenerate ba ng letter yun na pwedeng dalhin sa SG police, para makakuha ng SG police clearance?

last question, pag katapos kong maglodge, pwede ba akong mag upload ng mga documents sa iba't ibang araw as long as di pa ako kinokontak ni CO para maging direct grant ang result?

se29m · May 2016

@pinoycoder if to follow sop, co yung magbibigay ng referral for the sg coc request. Ang ginawa ko, i printed the invite letter from skillselect and presented it sa cantonment.. Nakakuha naman ako sg coc.. Yes, you can upload files anytime after your lodging/paying for your visa fee

pinoycoder · May 2016

@se29m salamat sa info.

Xiaomau82 · May 2016

@Xiaomau82 and @engineer20 Thank you for the information. I just called immigration and they said to just wait for the CO. May mga kakilala naman kayo na ganito ginawa at okay naman so i think it should be all good. Nagtataka lang ako kung bakit ganun ang sabi sa immi. Do you think it might be because they only give out general answers? What a dilemma..hehe

It’s a standard reply. Anyway, if you don’t mind waiting, just wait until the CO is assigned. Anyway, mukang konti na lang din nmn pag aantay na gagawin mo

tangentph · May 2016

@coachella9 if you only have 55pts, sa 190 ka applicable.. GSM din naman ang 190, the difference is yung 189 eligible ka sa kahit saang State. Sa 190, morally obligated ka to live and work for 2 years sa state na nagsponsor sayo..

@se29m, After 2 years pwede ka na mag work sa ibang territory holding the same passport subclass? Validity ng 189 at 190 ay 5 years, tama ba? What happens after 5 years then?

se29m · May 2016

@tangentph
1 yes
2 yes
3 your visa will expire, if you need to leave and re enter australia, you need to be on a valid visa again, in this case a resident return visa is applicable

Cassey · May 2016

@Xiaomau82 Thank you for replying, Nagbasa ako sa website sabi naman okay lang maggenerate ng HAP ID as long as online lodgement. So eto, magpapabook na kami ng medicals for our daughter.

Naku, magdilang anghel ka sana,hehe Super stress talaga tong visa application pero kapit lang talaga sa Diyos,hehe
