The visa is valid for 5 years...489(old) visa is only valid for 4 years
Can apply for PR visa after 3 years after complying the residency and work requirements...unlike 489 visa, PR application can be done after 2 years of living and working in a regional area

@MsFaith There are only 7 DAMAs currently in place so di lang skills under dama ang kasama...491is just the old 489 with some changes..your nominated occupation should be in the state occupations list and you should apply for state nomination

Wow thats good news... maraming salamat, yun nga lang nawala na ang melbourne sa option na available under 489, tama ba ako? Or can my family from Melbourne still be able to sponsor me under 491?

@MsFaith 489 was never ever available for Melbourne. 489 is for regional areas only and Melbourne isn’t a regional area. It would be the daw case with 491.
