    Yung relative ko po nasa Au magbabayad ba ng parang "support bond". Refundable daw yun eh. Yung relative ko kasi sanay to sponsoring tourist visa lang. First time mag sponsor under 491. Please help enlighten. Thanks!

    Wala po kaming binayadan na support bond. May stat declaration lang po na fill outan yung relative nyo.

    Just got a ITA po, need na po ba iprepare tong Stat Declaration you stated? thanks!

    Hi Guys. I Badly need your advice. I took my English test thrice. Sa kasamaang palad, isa ako sa mga naexpired and EOI during the pandemic. May tiyahin ako sa AU na pumayag mag sponsor sakin. kaya lang I'm turning 40 next month and and maximum lang na points ko ay 70 to 80 points. May ilalaban pa po ba ito sa job code ko na 263111? Kahi kung wala na talaga I'll give up on my AU dream and maybe try CA nalang :(

    The job market depends on what job you're looking for. Defence jobs are for citizens only. For most jobs, you just have to stress that you have full working rights. There is a labour shortage here as well, so if you are a good fit for the job and have full working rights, the visa type shouldn't be a big issue.

    More than the visa, the bigger issue for new immigrants in any state is that employers tend to prefer applicants with local work experience.

    if 491 Family Sponsored - Any suburbs, except Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane,
    if 491 State Sponsored - Check mo yung conditions dun sa pinirmahan mo dun sa nagsponsor state sa iyo. Then you ask permission in writing if it is okay to relocate in another regional area. Then provide justifications. If pumayag sila, pwede ka lumipat, lipat ka. You do this in writing as a proof and supported by documents.

    Thank you for your insights! I’ve read the conditions nung visa ito sabi,

    • 8579 While you are in Australia, you must live, study and work in an area that is on the list of designated regional areas in an instrument.
      If you hold a subclass 491 visa, the area must have been on the list of designated regional areas on the date we granted your visa. So, it can be any states? I just need to write down letter and justify that i might move to another states? Correct me if im wrong

    The nominating state government would generally require you to make a commitment of residing and working in the designated area of which you were nominated.

    Just ask permission if they allow you in writing and provide justufiable reasons why do you want to transfer in another state. Provide them basis. Syempre magstay ka muna ng ilang months para majustify mo.

    Pag pumayag sila. Okay. Para you are in a safe side kung magapply sa future visa.

    My brother is a registered Nurse sa Philippines and he's currently working in Germany. Di nya naPassed yung language exam, so I suggest to him dito na lang sya sa Australia. I've checked the 491 pwede namin sya maSponsored. Im living now in Brisbane and planning to move in regional areas like GCoast.
    So how can we start po, any suggestions kung ano2 mga dapat namin iready & /or iprocess.
    And do u think ok yung 491 visa. Or better of magStudent sya. Or mag 189 or 190?

    Thank u

    Not sure if eligible sya for 491 FS if plan nyo pa lang lumipat to Gold Coast. He might have better chances sa 189 and 190. Kung nurse naman I'm sure kasama yan sa priority occupations.

    Hello everyone,
    question, sino po dito ang nag process thru agent visa fee? pano nyo po binayaran ang visa nyo?
    we are going to use our credit card and ang sabi ni Agent kelangan namin ibigay ang photo front and back ng credit card sa kanya? ok lang ba yun? or kung yun ba ang tamang process ng mga agent? or dapat ba kami ang mag bayad direct sa Immi bigyan nya lang kami ng link?

    Thank u po for your reply, as per my agent when we asked then to lodge even walang police clearance, her response was "this is not possible at this stage as the syatem will not allow us to proceed with tje submission of the application. If we try to override this - your application might be refused" 😔

    Your agent said that? Police clearance is not required kaagad (either you follow it up after lodgment yourself or you wait for case officer request), so you should be able to lodge your application without it. My agent did that. My agent even advised against getting a police clearance agad eh, so we lodged without it at first then sinunod ko na lang shortly after lodging.
