Hello question to all, meron na ba dito na nagapply nang skilled list occupation under closed category para sa corresponding skill nila?

for example arch dp's naka close pero nagapply naapprove?

kasi nabasa ko sa ANZCO search pwede pa din magapply kahit naka close na yung occupation provided may close ties or kakilala ka sa ACT iniisip ko lang po mga sir at mam paano kaya nila maprove yun na ganun pagpalagay natin may kakilala lang.

salamat po sana may makapagshare nang exp.

bookworm

hindi lang kakilala.

Applicants working in Canberra in the nominated occupation are eligible to apply. Overseas applicants with close ties (job offer or close family) living in Canberra may be eligible to apply. Occupations must be verified before the application for nomination is lodged.

@bookworm

so meaning pwede kahit close bastat may job offer or close family ties?

how about friends or semi close ganun pwede?

may ka school mate kasi ako baka pwede mag pasabi kaso lately lang siya nakapasok sa AUS wala pang 1 year.

bookworm

@thegreatiam15, either may job offer (na willing ka i sponsor) or meron kang kamag anak na nakatira sa canberra na willing ka i sponsor. Di puwede yung friends, e.

@bookworm Architectural Draftsperson

damn 2 years hahaha : ( nalungkot ako bigla ah

bookworm

@thegreatiam15 hindi in demand ang job ko e (technical writer). Malay mo naman, next year, mag open na ang architectural draftsperson sa canberra. Or you can try Darwin or Hobart. At least you have options. Yung sa akin, no state was willing to sponsor it, except for Canberra and it was for such a short period of time.

bookworm

@thegreatiam15 yung sa akin 2 years yung expiration nung vetassess ko e, but you have the option (with additional payment) to have it "re-issued". Yung ielts, 2 years din.

thegreatiam15

@bookworm kung may extra ako baka magpareassess ako as civil dps

bookworm

Hi guys!!! I'm here na in AU, I'm staying with my sister sa Sydney pero since ACT sponsored ako, I'll be staying in Canberra siguro next week lilipat na ko dun. Ang prob, nahihirapan ako humanap ng work na hindi kailngan ng security clearance. The prob is, citizens lang ang nabbigyan ng clearance na un.

By the way, IT ako. Anyone having the same problem? Or may IT din po ba ditto who could refer me to a company or agency? Thank you!!

bookworm

@kata, di ako IT, technical writer ako but it is also IT related. Will be arriving there on Feb next year. But yeah, same situation. Hahanap na lang ng work na di masyado related. Good luck!

thegreatiam15

kelan kaya ulet magrereshuffle ang skilled list nang ACT?..: )

kata

@bookworm di ka mahihirapan humanap ng work as Tech Writer. Madaming naghahanap ng ganyan. Good luck!

bookworm

@kata, marami, pero kailangan ng security clearance same sa IT peeps.

kata

OMG!! parang nawawalan na ko ng pagasa sa Canberra.. puro kailngan ng security clearance. gusto ko na lumipat ng ibang state!!! huhu.
