Hello po, question po regarding bakayon sa Pinas with 491 visa. Kailangan pa po ba kumuha ng PDOS or OEC kapag uuwi ng Pilipinas under 491? Family of four po kami and planning to go home next Christmas. Thank you.

If di pa po naregularize yung OWWA membership you can do it there din naman po sa nearest Embassy , understand that 491 is still an interim visa ,after po nyan you can get OEC by appointment after completing the steps like contract verification for OFWs (direct hires) etc.
Less hassle na din next time na uuwi since if may record na kayo ,you can get OEC by online after that.

Happy New year guys! Wala pa po kasi thread na for child care kaya dito nalang ako mag aask ng question regarding child care. We are on a Visa 190 recently just granted on Victoria and planning to move this May 2024.

Points: 80 Points
EOI submitted: December 12, 2022.
Visa Invitation: January 5, 2023
Visa Lodged: January 30, 2023
Commencement Email received: September 26, 2023
Visa Approved: December 13, 2023.

Electrical Engineer with Civil Engineer spouse and 4 yo kid po.

Ang set up po namin ay both parents ay nagwowork at ang anak namin ay ipapasok sa child care. Napaka mahal po kasi ng child care kahit icoconsider ang subsidy galing sa government. May iba po bang options na mga gingawa mga kababayan natin regarding dito? Salamat po in advance.

Congratulations po!
For childcare Ilang percent po pwede nyo madiscount pag nagavail ng subsidy from VIC?
Sa mga NSW operators it can range 75 to 100 plus AUD per day sa mga nakita ko if no subsidy.

Hello, thank you for this. Diba po ang OEC ay for OFW lang? Kasi yung 491 is a provisional PR visa. Migrant po ito not OFW. Pero may work na din po kasi kami dito kaya naguguluhan din ako.

Yung PDOS is for PR only (189/190 visa) so no need. Yung OEC naman as far as I know, needed na if may work in AU.

Thank you po. May work na po kami dito.

hi, happy new year to all
question po, kapag ongoing na assessment ng pre-invite for 491 NSW, possible pa rin bang ma-invite sa ibang state like VIC or WA for 190?
Kasi yun current job namin wala sa regional ng NSW, meron lang sa sydney, kaya nag-iisip kami ng better approach for this. Feel free po to give your insights and/or perspective, or advice

If may separate EOI for the other states, yes possible to still get invited.

@whimpee thank you po!

May discussions po tungkol sa OEC and they consider 491 holders as OFWs coming from POLO Australia . You can check the thread tinag po kita.

Happy New Year po. Sa pag-apply po ng Visa 190, okay lang po ba walang payslips dun sa isa sa employer ko? ITR, COE, SSS, Pag-Ibig, PhilHealth lang po ang meron ako. Thank you po.

I notice ko po na you have been invited sa NSW, did you lodge EOI po for other states or just NSW only?

Hi, ask ko lang po if I have a total of 70pts so far (proficient PTE) is there a chance po para ma invite for SC 190? Nominated skill po is Telecom Network Engr. TIA.

70pts is a tough playing field, you have a lot of competition in your skill, with higher points. Rule of thumb that my agent taught me is to exhaust all potential points. Strive for Superior PTE so you get additional 10pts, then try NAATI CCL exam to get 5pts. That will bring you up to a better spot at 85pts.

Thanks sir. Yes, I will retake PTE to aim for superior. Will also check about NAATI. Thank you!

I would always advice clients to exhaust all ways to increase points but one thing to take note for 190 and 491 regional stream, they are not subject to priority points but the selection criteria always depends on the state/regional area. Having the highest points is not the ultimate basis for inviting an applicant.

Ask ko lng po based on you experience, maliit po ang chance na mainvite for state nominate for visa 491 kung meron EOI sa 3 states like SA, WA at ACT or even NSW? Meron nagsasabi na kapag maraming EOI sa multiple state compare sa isa mas less ung chances ma invite since parang nde genuine daw ung pag stay sa nominating state?

Not at all. I did this and received pre invites both from ACT and NSW with separate EOIs.

Thats definitely hearsay. You’re allowed multiple EOI’s

THank you po for the reply. Follow up question lng po if you may. Meron na po bang cases recently na nabigyan ng invite for visa 190 by a state e.g. VIC or SA or even WA if your EOI is 60-65 only provided na ung job occupation is nasa skills priority list nila?

Hi guys. I'm lodging for subclass 190. Need pa po ba mag bigay ng Form 2316 na nakastamp or hindi na po?

cjpsyche007

Hello everyone,
I plan to do DIY sa pag apply ng visa 190.
Pwede po mag ask ng steps? Need ko po maliwanagan ano ang gagawin ko po next.
Na collect ko na po yung mga requirements, pero may inaantay pa ako na skills assessment that I applied for last December.

My husband and me is currently holding visa 482, si hubby ang principal at ako ang dependent.
More than 4 yrs na si hubby dito sa Australia, ako naman almost 2 yrs na.

This time sa Visa 190, ako po mag a-apply as principal, si hubby po ang dependent since 48 na po sya.

Ano po ba ang pagkakasunud-sunod? Mejo di pa clear sakin,
SkillSelect EOI, Bridging Visa A, VIC EOI, upload documents to immiaccount, vic ROI and apply for EOI from VIC

May nabasa po ako na need mag apply ng Brdidging Visa A bago ako mag eoi sa VIC.

Thank you so much in advance po sa mga magka clarify at sasagot po.

1. Any idea po kung magko close this January 2024 yung VIC EOI?

2. For this year, when is the best time to apply for a state nomination from VIC?

I'm worried na masaraduhan sa invitation sa 190 sa VIC.

I'm currently living in Victoria for almost 2 years.

Actually, I got my positive skills assessment from aitsl na,
pero waiting pa rin po sa Skilled Employment Statement (SES) from AITSL.
I am a Secondary Mathematics Teacher po, with more than 5 years work experience,
so nasa ANZCO 241411 po occupation ko.

Thank you so much po sa sasagot.. God bless..

currently 482 now, and applied 190 VIC in Q1 2023.
Received ITA in April 2023 and lodged in Jun2023.

Apply ASAP po, why delay? baka magbago ang process at di nyo ma-avail yung current setup.

First step po is EOI, then submit ROI for VIC
Wait for VIC nomination
Once VIC nomination is received, saka lang po mag-lo lodge sa IMMI account
We received Bridging VISA A pagkatapos ng lodging. Magiging available po sya sa immi account.

olew

1. Submit EOI in Skillselect (190 VIC) - make sure documented po yung points by this time
2. Submit ROI in LiveinMelb website
3. Wait for VIC nomination
4. VIC nomination approval email / Invitation to Apply (ITA) email from DHA (same day)
5. Immi account - lodge visa application & upload documents within 60days
6. Once visa lodged, you will receive Bridging Visa A thru Immi account (not sure if Medical need to be completed for this)
7. Wait for visa grant

1) Base sa remaining allocations looks like not closing sooner they still have about 1k nominations for the remaining FY
2) Best time is now ,time is gold
3) Worry will not get you invited ,applying and trying lang po , make the most out of it since your onshore
4) Skills Assessment is positive then you can claim points for education , SES is optional in case of VIC you can still provide that later on for work experience
5) Your occupation is in priority so expect invites are favorable ,but again ask more questions sa isang thread dito , Filipino Teachers in Australia?

thank you so much sa response! so helpful po sa akin.

Ahm, Wait ko lang yung pte test ng husband ko po this week.
Then, mag apply na po ako ng ROI.
Pero, need po ba yung SES para sa work experience na points?
Yan po ang hinihintay ko na i-release ng aitsl sakin..nagsubmit ako agad ng SES application pagkareceive ko ng positive skills assessment nung December..

Which is better to apply po, 190 o 189?

Yes po, I'll do it the soonest po, hinihintay ko lang yung pte exam ng husband ko this week.

At yung SES or Skilled Employment Stement na manggagaling sa AITSL, hinihintay ko pa din po.
Para sa work experience yata po yun.

Then, pag mareceive ko na yung SES, dun na po ako mag apply sa visa 190..

THank you po sa response, I'm grateful po sa inyo.

   I thought kasi para ma-count yung points ko sa work experience, need ko i-provide yung SES...

Kindly enlighten me on this...Thank you in advance..

Yes you can lodge an EOI already

Is similar in nature for other occupations
is optional to get your employment experience assessed , it does not stop you fr submitting an EOI

Kapag po ba Visa 491 and after 3 years where I can apply for PR, need ba yung naging work ko sa regional area, is related sa occupation that I declared. Example: Chem Engg ako but yung naging work ko related sa sales? Thank you!

You can be sales or work any full time job, anything you want , even uber driver will do.
