General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

jc21

Hello po madam and sirs,

Question po ah? bale po kasi na grant na po yung visa namin (God is great talaga) and na receive na din po namin ung grant notice. Then dun po sa grant notice na letter, meron po naka specify na you are required by the Commission of Filipinos Overseas(CFO) to attend the pre-departure seminar.

My question po is, need po ba talaga gawin un?

Thank you very much!

batman

Meron ba kayong alam na hinihingan ng English test (i.e. PTE, IELTS) scores kapag naghahanap na ng work? Nag-aantay kasi kaming magparamdam yung CO namin at sabihin samin kung tlagang required nga mag-English test yung spouse ko to prove functional English. Iniisip tuloy namin kung dapat bang magtest na lang sya regardless kasi baka may possibility na hahanapan sya pag nagapply na sya ng work sa Au.
Ano pong tingin niyo?

baka d lang nakita ng CO, upload mo na lng uli ung cert & transcript and letter from the university. so far wala nmn ako nabalitaan na hiningian ng ielts result nung naghanap ng work sa australia. You should be able to prove na u have functional English during the interview 

@kingmaling Kung 8+ (IELTS) or 79+ (PTE) ka sa lahat ng modules ng English assessment, magiging 20 points talaga claim mo for English language ability.

7 lng ako sa speaking at listening eh..pero 8 yung general average ko..hehe

Question na naman ulit..upon final check sa EOI ko may napansin kasi akong parang hindi masyadong clear..sa employment history, looking back sa result ng assessment ko, nakita ko ito..

"The following employment after April 2010 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to..."

Eh yung employment ko started April 2008 pa..does that mean sa EOI ko under Employment info, May 1, 2010 yung start ng employment ko (kung susundin yung sabi ng assessment)??or magstick pa rin ako sa original start ng employment ko which is nung 2008 talaga..

@kingmaling should be May 1, 2010. Ayan yung start ng Skilled Level Met Date

@kingmaling bale ibreakdown mo yung employment mo:

April 2008 - April 2010 = not related
May 2010 onwards = related

Hi guys! Newbie here..ask ko lng po kc nagsstart plng po kme ni hubby sa pagbabasa about how to apply for visa subclass 189.Ask ko lng po if my need po bayaran s skill assessments and hm? Like for example po c hubby is sa ACS and me CPA nman po ung assessment authority ko.Ask ko rin po if my magkano ang payment for EOi? Thank you so much po sa sasagot. Pasensya na po at mejo confuse p po kme. GODBLESS US ALL

rami

@Crystal24 Yup.. May babayaran na sa skill assessment and depende yung price sa assessing body mo and need nyo ng english exam (IELTS / PTE-A). About sa EOI skill select wala ka pa babayaran d2, once invited ka na dun ka pa lng magbabayad ng visa. Meaning lodging of visa na yun and yun na yung final stage din before your visa grant.

Eto basa basa ka d2. Goodluck!

Hello Everyone,

Just to confirm sa EOI natin:

Australian study requirement
Does the client meet the Australian study requirements for the Skilled Migration
points test? I answered "NO" -> this pertains if we have Uni experience in Aus right? Not with the AQF equivalent?

rami

@SAP_Melaka Yup tama ang NO...

correct, no dapat. that's for those who have studied in Australia, at least 2 years.

Tanong lang sa pagfo-front-load ng documents:

Medyo naguguluhan ako. Kaka-submit ko lang ng EOI (Visa 189/190).

Habang naghihintay ako ng ITA, maia-upload (front-load?) ko na ba kaagad 'yung mga supporting documents ko for EOI?

-----> Kung "oo", saan ko siya dapat i-upload? Gumawa din ako ng Immi account, kasi akala ko dito inu-upload yung supporting docs, pero wala namang Visa 189/190 application sa nakita ko.

-----> Kung "hindi", ang mangyayari ba talaga e, hihintayin mo lang 'yung ITA bago ka makapag-upload ng supporting documents for the EOI, tapos ang "frontloading", e, ibig sabhin lang, kahit hindi pa hinihingi nung case officer (CO) yung document, binibigay mo na?

Salamat.

rami

@pakjo pwde ka lng mag upload or frontload ng docs pag invited ka sa eoi 189 190... merong list of docs required sa website ng borders au pag invited ka na.. provide mo lng lahat para malaki chance ng direct grant

pakjo

@rami salamat. don ako naguluhan. akala ko kahit wala pang invite, pwede na mag-upload ng supporting documents.

follow up question na rin..kasi kinausap ko yung pinsan ko from AU and she said na ilagay ko na lang raw yung full employment details ko talaga kasi iche-check naman ng CO yung assessment letter from ACS at sila na dw yung mag-count ng relevant experience ko..besides, di naman mkaka-apekto yung pagbawas ng 2 years sa experience ko..same points pa rin makukuha ko..ano sa tingin mo sir @engineer20 ??hehe..

engineer20

@kingmaling dapat nakaindicate kung anong work ang nagclaim ka ng points (related) sa EOI. kung April 2008 ay ilalagay mo na related magiging 15 pts ka pero kung May 2010 ay 10 pts ka lang.

chineck ko actually kung May 2010 mag-umpisa yung work experience ko 65pts pa rin yung nasa last page ng EOI before submit..hehe

pwede malaman points breakdown mo?

pakjo

regarding points in EOI: i think it's safer to under-claim the points than over-claim them.

worst case pag nag under-claim ka ng points e ganito:

CO: bakit sabi mo dito 55 points ka lang, e 60 ka talaga?

vs.

CO: bakit sabi mo dito 60 points ka, e 55 lang pala?

ano mas gusto nyong scenario? hehe...

freakazaa

@pakjo I don't think you would need to under or over claim. Detailed naman yung qualifiers for the points you can claim. Dapat lang maging careful sa pag interpret ng rules and assessment references. Make sure din that you have evidence to back up your claims.
