A blessed day, fellow pinoyau.info members!

My wife and I were granted a 491 visa on November 9, 2020. For our first entry, we have to arrive by Nov 9, 2021.

Now this is the exciting part. We have just found out that my wife is 4 weeks pregnant (after waiting for almost 9 years!). As this is our first child, we are cautious and we reckon it is safer and more convenient for her and for the baby if we wait until she gives birth here in Singapore before doing the visa activation. She's due in August, and we are planning to fly to Australia in October 2021 (without the baby yet).

I am hoping to land a job in Australia in October 2021, and I will stay there (hello, 491 income requirement). My wife will return to Singapore and she and the soon-to-be-born child will then join me in Australia in February 2022, when the child turns 6 months.

This is feasible, right?

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

Any input is greatly appreciated:-)

@janjan120 kung ang skills mo po ay pdng DIY, mas makakatipid ka po... kasi ang mahal ng agent fee dito sa SG.

More research and read instructions, sobrang laking tulong ng pinoyau discussion, silent reader lang din ako dito, hanggang sa nagprepare na ko ng docs...
then nakapag EOI na... Hoping and praying na maapprove 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I would to inquire if there is a breach of visa conditions after the visa grant of 491 when you applied

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.
If you hold a subclass 494 visa and you are a primary visa holder, the area must have been on the list of designated regional areas when your
most recently approved nomination was lodged by your employer.
If you hold a subclass 494 visa and you are a secondary visa holder, the area must have been on the list of designated regional areas when the
primary visa holder's most recently approved nomination was lodged by their employer.

Hi! After grant? Not sure, u may want to check ur visa conditions. Kung pwedeng mag asawa, u still need to apply your new spouse, a subsequent visa i guess. Please correct me if im wrong. Dont take ny word for it.

Wala naman kaso sa akin basta allowed po ba? Yun ba ang consequence sa 10 points na nakuha ko as single. No problem for me if I will be paying an additional 4k. Wala bang magcoconflict if after 3 financial year nagapply ng 191?

Hello po, s mga state sponsored po may mga nkapag 1st entry na po ba dito na indi under critical skills? Meron po bang extended time provided na binibigay just in case indi nkpag first entry on the given time due to covid? TIA

I have question regarding 491Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa. Family Sponsored Stream. I was granted as a single applicant last 2020.

My Visa Conditions are:
8578 - Must notify certain changes (You are required to tells us any other changes to your details as soon as possible such as changes to your name or your family composition)
8579 Must lived/study/work in a regional area
8580 - Must provide evidence of address
8581 - Must attend interview

Questions:
1. If I plan to get married this year, is there a consequence to apply the future subclass 191 visa?
2. Can my future wife apply a 491 Subsequent entrant visa?
3. What will be my options inorder to bring my future wife to Australia.
4. Can I get married this year without and update DHA? Is there an effect on my visa grant?

• Currently I am offshore.

tigerlance

In addition, I declared her as GIRLFRIEND when I lodged my application last February 2020. Form 80
at Associated People

I answered Migrating with her as No. Since I was single and we are not married and not defacto up to the present.

Hi mga mam/sir, question po regarding visa 491.

yung taxable income ba ay sa main applicant lang or pati yung partner dapat ay may work din para makapag apply ng visa 191?

hello there. it is EITHER the main applicant for the 491 visa OR the partner. this means you cannot combine your income. sa isang tao lang ung income na at least $53,900. kung sino sa inyo maka-fulfill, un mag-apply ng 191.

kapag naka dependent po yung partner at child sa main applicant (subsequent entrant ata tawag dun) at naging okay ang visa 191 ng main, ibig sabihin po ba maging visa 191 na din yung partner at child?

Thank you sa response.

Only the main for the 191 visa must comply with the requirements. Any dependent included in the 191 visa application will also get the same visa once approved. You need to include them in your 191 application and they should be onshore when you submit the application.

Ano po ba ang difference ng Skilled Nominated Visa 190 at Skilled Work Regional Visa (Provisional) 491 in terms of benefits?

Work and stay:
For visa 190 - permanent
For visa 491 - 5 years - maging PR after 3 years if eligible.

Work and stay areas:
For visa 190 - all of Australia
For visa 491 - all of Australia except for Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

In terms of timeline to citizenship:
For visa 190 - after 4 years
For visa 491 - 3 years with visa 491 and 1 year visa 191

Free education sa child (state sponsored) and with medicare for both visas.

Bukod po dito ano pa po ang difference in terms of benefits? Kung may mali ako please enlighten me. Thank you in advance sa sasagot.

eligible sa centrelink benefits pag visa 190 at minsan may mga jobs na requirement na PR visa holder. pero at this time, ang pinakaimportante ay magkaroon ng visa na eligible to work and stay in Australia.

May mga quota din ba ang companies sa AU? For example dito sa Singapore, may industries na 10 locals muna ang kailangan i-hire para magkaroon sila ng quota for 1 foreigner.

May dilemma kasi ako na magapply na ba ako ng visa 491 dahil yun lang ang available ngayon or maghintay muna ng konti at baka sakali ay pwede na magapply ng visa 190. 3 years din kasi na PR status ang difference nung dalawa.

Walang quota sa paghihire dito ng local of foreigners and importante may visa ka to work here. may mga companies na need nila ng PR/citizen para maging successful pero quota wala like singapore.

Hi, regarding condition 8580 ng 491 visa. I received a letter from DHA requiring me to update our residential address. I already updated mine pero ung family ko kasi is nasa pinas pa. Di ko mapalitan ung country sa "update details" ng immiaccount. Naka pre populate ng Australia. May naka experience na ba ng ganito sa inyo?

Di ba may deadline yun sa pagupdate ng regional details? Ilang days bago ka nagupdate?
Iattach mo nalang ang letter explaining na nasa Pilipinas pa yung family mo and proof na nandun pa sila sa Others.

85 lang points ko, naging 75 pa nung nag-40 years old ako. by God's grace nainvite pa rin:-)

@rellim115 hello po..me idea po ba kau regarding sa age requirement if mag apply ng visa 491 then mag transition to 191..like if makapasok na sa Australia under visa 491 at age 42, then di po ba dapat makapag live and work muna for 3 years bago makapag apply for PR under 191, then by that time over 44 y.o na yng age so hindi na po feasible for PR di po ba? or mali ba pagkaintindi ko?
