I tried both applying online and visiting services australia, negative po. Sabi sakin sa Services Australia, may NARWP (Newly arrived resident's waiting period) na daw po ngayon, which is 4 years daw po in my case, for single. Not sure po if pag may family, how long po ang NARWP, I think may available na benefits in 2 years.

Question po. In progress po now ang visa 491 application ng baby ko (granted na visa 491 namin ng hubby ko) and mag-big move na kami next month. Nabasa ko na pwede applyan ng bridging visa si baby pero dapat nasa AU na siya at the time of application. Basta ang kailangan lang namin is yung bridging visa na makapagstay siya sa AU indefinitely hanggang sa result ng visa 491 application niya. So questions:
If may nakaexperience na sainyo neto, hope you can share ano ginawa niyo.. Thank you po! ๐
