Hi. Just wanted to ask for those anyone na may experience na sa ganitong situation.

I am currently waiting for my 190 NSW grant. Would there be any impact sa citizenship if I move to another state right after the grant to be with my relatives?

When I read the state nomination approval, it says there na I am required to commit for 2 years.

Any thoughts on this?

When you get your grant, you do have a moral duty to reside in NSW, since they sponsored your permanent residency. I've heard from a migration agent that it's fine, what even is a moral obligation, and some of their clients have moved to another state on a 190 visa for job market reasons (I have no proof of this though, just a convo I had with the agent I consulted with).

But I have also read from others that you might encounter issues with your citizenship application, especially if there's no justifiable reason (e.g. no available jobs) for the transfer. The implied question being, why did you apply for a state na 'di mo nilipatan.

Honestly, for peace of mind, I'd just stay in NSW. After 2 years, you can move naman na. I feel like the question will always hang over your head and personally, stressful.

2 years is really short. Di mo mamamalayan yan if you're working. Imho, what you're planning to do is not worth the risk. Just commit the 2 years para safe, konting tiis lang to, nasa AU ka na, you're free to visit your relatives anytime (and vice versa).

Actually ito rin naman sinabi ng agent ko. I can move anywhere if wala talagang makitang work. Pero ayun nga, mukang I have no choice but to commit. Hehe. Thanks sa reply. Appreciate it.

Just to add, long before the citizenship, one way or another the states will make contact with the people they nominated and been granted the visa to touch base and hear from you. D'yan pa lang, they will ask you and you will need to explain why you moved to another state. And I can only imagine, the elaborate process of doing that. Ok naman kung ma-defend or ma-explain mo, I guess wala problema yan.

But, see, kung kaya naman mag stay with the state that nominated you, bakit hindi di ba? Just comply, para wala na rin sila masabi haha. 2yrs will just pass by, you wont even notice it.

Hello, good morning po!
Ask ko lang po how do you prepare for your BIG move in terms of financials? Like how many months buffer do you prepare before doing your BIG move (given there’s no assurance when you’ll get a job in AU)?

Any idea po how much ang monthly cost of living in NSW for a single person?

Thank you!

Ang bilis po ng processing nung sayo grabe congrats! Ano pong ANZSCO code mo and points?

Ayy waiting pa rin po ako ng grant, curious lang po how others plan their move..if they move right after the grant or they save up first … sorry for confusion po 😅

26112 Systems Analyst po ako 90 pts

Hi, we are already saving up while waiting for our visa grant, we lodged last May 05. Pag tanggap grant namin, lipad agad! Darna!

Haha parang samin din. Natanggang namin ung grant ngaun kunwari. After a month lipad na. Nagtender lang ng one month sa opisina.

There's really no straight answer to that unfortunately. You can just be guided by the processing times published by the DHA for each visa subclass.

I lodged my visa application last Nov 2022 and got my CO contact for medical last April 2023, i think it already exceeded the given processing time. I'm just curious if after the "for further assessment" part what comes next?

Naabutan tayo ng pahinto ng grant. Normally yung mga naCO ng end of March at first week ng Apr, may grant na sila a month later. I was expecting mine ng mid May but they stopped granting after 1st wk of May. Feeling ko lang talaga it will be given to us this July since it will be 3 months after we had CO contact. Crossfinger.

Hello po nakita ko yung signature nyo about sa Health Undertaking na pinasign sa partner nyo due to findings sa medical. Most likely ganito din po ipapagawa sa husband ko, ask ko lang po kung handwritten yung pag sign na ginawa nya or pwede kaya attach na lang ng e-signature sa Adobe Acrobat? Thank you po.

Hi po. Better to sign it with hand then scan. I remember yung assessment pa lang, binalik sa akin lahat ng docs na may e-sig ako. They don't accept e-sig raw so I assumed ganun din ang DHA

@Papskin kaya nga po naabot tayo nkakatampo nga eh hehe joke anyway darating din yan satin sure kung hnd this month bka next month meron n yan keep on praying wag tau mag stop 🙏🤞
