General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

redvelvet

thanks for your advice, vhoythoy i'll research on that.

helo..question lang po, kung may naka experience na ng ganito and ano po advice nio?

May 1 - lodged visa 189
but there is a problem with my birth certificate NSO

i was born in Ilocos, pero naregister ng parents ko sa NSO, both Ilocos and Manila (cguro magulo situation nung time na pinanganak aq) hehe..

before 2013 - lahat ng documents ko - Ilocos ung place of birth
but bec. i renewed my passport - urgent so nag pa online delivery aq NSO hotline (they sent me a birth cert - MAnila ang place of birth q), so dahil urgent , un ung ginamit ko for renewal of my passport..
starting 2013 (kasama na ung passport ko )- Manila na nilalagay ko na place of birth ko..pati sa Australian Computer Society (ACS) nung nagpa assess aq for occupation.
pati sa application ko for PR - Manila na din nilagay ko..

today - my mother verified my nso docs. ( she went to NSO office) - sabi ng nso, mali daw nila ung nagsend sila ng "Manila"..so icancel na daw nila ung manila..which means, ilocos nalang daw ang matitira sa database nila..

ayun..thats the problem..ano po kaya magandang gawin? thanks in advance

Try to get an official letter from NSO since mali nila un. Then complete Form 1023 for incorrect answer.

Hi everyone! I'm new to this site and found it very informative.planning to migrate with 2 kids. Just invited yesterday- just wondering are there any mode of payment we can use aside from credit card?

alexia02

Hello po. Kailangan po bang ipa-certify yung reference letter and cert of employment? Yun pong scanned passport size photo of applicants- ano pong ibig sabihin nilang "labelled with applicants name? Susulatan na lang ba sa paper ng name then i-scan yung passport photo? Pls advice po...

ten2six

Hmmm.. hindi na ako ng pass ng photo kase ganun din naman sa passport di ba? Ung reference letter ko from company scanned original. colored scan naman. but i don't have a CO yet pero sa mga nabasa ko dito it will suffice.

Ask ko lng po pwede din b mag apply ng immigrant visa pag nurse?bale whats d assessing body?and pano po process?

alexia02

@altuser41 hi. Maraming salamat..

alexia02

@kremitz Hi. Yes po. Im a nurse. ANMAC ang assessing body. You can go to their website and ask. Ielts is required with a band 7 score in all of 4 components. Good day.

alexia02

@ten2six hi. Yung scanned passport photos ng hubby and 2 kids- okay na ba yung may sinulat or typed name nila sa paper where i will scan the passport photo? Or kailangan pa ipa-certify? Thanks.

ten2six

Saan stage ka na ba ng application? In the immiaccount kase wala naman hiningi photo na may name. so i think that the passport will be enough kase official pa yun. but don't take my word for it, wala pa ako CO. Baka hingin din yun kung kailangan.

gene_borres

Question lng, magkaproblem kaya ako sa processing ng visa kasi i got promoted last may 16, yung invite nmn dumating nung 26. Ndi ko na naedit yung EOI. Same occupation nmn, one level up lng.

alexia02

@ten2six hi. Thanks sa reply. We haven't paid. We are waiting sa increase in credit limit namin. While waiting, we are collating docs ready foe submission. Invited last may 26.Pero nakita ko kc doon sa document checklist ng 189 visa regarding sa scanned recent passport photos of all applicants, labelled with names. Correct me if im wrong though.god bless.

kremitz

@alexia02 thanks po. same process lng po ba with other occupations?nagask kc friend ko n nurse eh. iba kc nominated occupation ng hubby ko kaya wala ako idea. nsa sol din b yung nurse?

alexia02

@kremitz yes, nsa sol ang nurse. Sa sg ba siya working as a nurse? Ask niya sa AHPRA- they might consider to register her if sa SG ang experience niya. I did not go for d bridging course anymore as what they require for nurses sa Pinas. Better chance niya for ANMAC SKILLS assessment if shes registered with ahpra( para siyang nursing board of Oz). 4 months ang processing ng skills assessment.

Hi, just want to ask everyone. Meron na po bang nag apply dito ng visa 189 na hinde muna sinama ang family? naisip ko kasi if ever na kasama ko agad mga kids ko, mahihirapan kami parepareho lalo na't maghahanap pa naman ako ng work if ma approve. And secondly malaki masyado ang fee pagkasama kaagad family. Please advise naman po.

Moontwinks

Hello po, might be a silly question pero just want to make sure. Pasensha na.

Regarding po sa Form 80. Need ba na handwritten? Or pd po kaya fill out tas print and sign?

Appreciate po ng advice.

Pwede yata fill up tapos print. Pero ako ginawa ko kasi handwritten tapos scan ko nlang.

Pwede nman pero magaasikaso ka na nman nyan. Di mo alam baka may bago na nman rules na di pabor sau or magtaas na nman ng fees. Kung ako sau gawan mo nlang ng paraan at sama mo na family mo sa applications. Para isang hirapan nlang (i.e. visa processing, medical, nbi, etc)

After March2014 when my Case Officer asked me for updated credentials like tax records, employment records and my new dependent's information, wala na ako update.

I filed for Visa 175 last June2009. Yes, that was 5 years ago.
I only got an update from them asking for updated medical records starting Dec2013 up until March2014. And then after that, wala na naman movement. Wala din feedback maski sa email.

Meron din ba umabot ng ganito katagal sa inyo?

Sobrang tagal nman. 189 ngaun can be completed in 6 months lang and approval from visa lodgement can be from 1 month to 2 months.

Kung ako nasa katayuan mo tatawag tlaga ako sa DIBP kung ano status at dapat gawin para matapos na. Kung may pera at pasok ka sa bagong visa classifications i might as well apply for new. Mainipin pa naman ako hehehe. baka nag Canada or New Zealand na ako nyan sa sobrang tagal.

Hi Guys/Gals, i'm not sure if this is the appropriate threads to seek your advises regarding any actual experiences or cases to pursue his application with the following scenario (estimated) for my brother in-law. Let's say na-meet nya po lahat ito, ano po ang visa path nya and ano po ang chances na maging successful ang visa application nya? He is worried about his age especially for securing the state nomination.

Age (45 yrs old) : 0 point
Experience (IT Job): 15 points
Qualification: 15 points
English (Band 8): 20 points
State Nomination: 10 points (he got a aussie citizen brother in Sydney)
Total Pass Mark: 60 points

Many thanks in advance.

Xiaomau82

@cvetu2004 depende po sa nominated occupation and case officer. sad to say, he met the criteria pero based on the current reports for subclass 489, if im not mistaken, those with 70 points pa lang iniinvite nila so depende din sa mga mangyayari after 1st of july.

@arcie09 Mas advisable na kasama na po ang family sa application nyo. Mas less na pag asikaso and gastos po.

arcie09

@johnvangie and vhoythoy, thank you po sa reply...anyway ang concern ko kasi masyadong malaki ung babayaran sa immigration nasa almost 400K for family of 4. and the fact that pagdating mo dun maghahanap pa ng work at the same time ipapasok pa sa school ung mga bata. hirap naman nun na isugal ung 400K, just in case lang na malasin and imagine hinde pa kasama ung dadalhin mong budget pang gastos once you already at AU specially sa case ko kasi wala po kaming relative doon.

Maraming salamat..

alexia02

@arcie09 hi... I would suggest isama mo na lahat ng dependents sa application mo. Anyway, pwede mo pa nman silang ibalik sa pinas after ng initial entry mo sa oz. For sure at some stage within the 5 yrs, settled ka na sa oz. Di natin alam kc always nag-iiba ang rules.God will make a way...

You need to gamble and take the risks. Importante may visa na kaung lahat. Kahit ikaw muna then sunod nlang pamilya mo after. Being OFW for 5 years, only now i realised the value of being permanent resident in a country. Yung PR from Australia is a privilege wag mo sayangin ang opportunity na maisama mo ang pamilya mo. Besides habang tumatagal lalong maghihigpit ang rules for migration at the same time mas lalong tataas ang babayaran mo. Money is not everything kikitain mo din to, mas mabuti ng may peace of mind. Goodluck
