hi guys.. newbie here.. found this discussion forum upon reading on so many info about australia in different forums here in the internet..

i wanna seek honest advice coz im really confused.

im 22, single, graduate of bsba in spuqc, worked for bpi family as teller for 6mos and now unemployed.
my family is financially stable, may family business and properties and cars.. nagwork ako as teller just to try out and ayan nagresign na din after regularization kasi gusto ko mag-abroad.. we have distant relatives in australia kalat sila and sila bahala saken basta makarating lang ako and now i need to start na..

for skilled visa - i dont where will I fall. honestly. and i have no work experience (yung SKILLED talaga, wala) so i dont think im qualified.
for student visa - mahal gastusin dito at wala ako sa wisyo mag-aral pa ulit

now i called up one agency na nirefer saken.. tourist visa na daw muna applyan ko para ma-try nadin yung buhay dun at kung gugustuhin ko daw magpapermanent resident ang fast solution is to get married there (which i dont mind kung fixed marriage lang or whatever.. ok lang naman)

now tama ba insights ko?? plan ko din para sureball ang visa eh magpa-agency nga.. ideal ba?? if solo pano ko irereason out ang kagustuhan ko magstay ng 6mos-12mos? kasi diba up to 1 year naman ang visa na naibibigay... tama ba??

i have my own bank account na gagamitin to support the files.. M din ang laman enough naba un?? got credit cards din pero d naman ganun kalaki limit but for my age sobra na un..

help.

    your agent is right, if you came from a well-off family then tourist visa fits you best. Try to live your life there for a short period of time until you finally get settled in Australia. I believe you have to study first and take student visa route.

    Sorry to tell you that you're neither qualified for skilled visa nor relative sponsored. Based on the information you had given, you will fall short of points.

    Marriage for convenience is precarious. Why not make it real ? Any face pics? FB ? hahahahaha.

    Ano kaya masasabi ni @heyitsme_mags (my online tita) lol.

    @glacerein, medyo naguluhan me ng konti sayo, sorry ha...kelangan mo cguro medyo mag seryoso isa mang bagay para ma qualified ka sa requirements sa Oz. At least cguro ang piliin mo ay yung route na talagang magugustuhan mo ang paraan pero ni isa dun ay parang wala kang pinili like kung student visa eh, di madali na magpayo sayo, kung skilled naman eh, di kalimutan mo muna ang mabilis na desisyon at kumuha ka ng experience para makarating sa Oz tutal bata kapa naman ang katulad naming damatan na o may edad na at lalagpas na sa age limit ng Oz ang dapat manginig pag mag a-apply ng skilled or sponsorship ikaw pwede kapa sa skill select dahil mataas pa points mo pero kumuha ka muna ng experience. Palagay ko medyo lang ha, hindi pa naka fixed ang desisyon mo kasi kung fixed na yan pipili ka isa man sa mga paraan para gawin ng makarating sa Australia.

    Yun kasing pagto tourist eh, ilang months lang ba yan 3mos. at wala ng extension cguro enjoy mo muna kung yan talaga at magugustuhan mo nga talaga dun then try mo yung mga pwedeng gawin para ma-qualify ka sa requirements. Pasensya na ha sa comments ko...peace!

    @tootzkie, nandyan ka pala, he he he...o nabasa mo na PM ko. Piliin mo yung kung anong malapit sa puso mong desisyon ha.

    Try mo mag aral ng one year course. Mag inquire and try mo rin ang New Zealand. Kung magpapakasal ka man mas mabuti sa mahal mo hindi dahil sa pangakong visa. Marriage is a lifetime commitment you know.

    God Bless you always and guide you in your decision.

    cheers

    try mo kung qualified ka sa working holiday visa. o kaya kung may budget kayo puede ka mag aral... pero dobleng ingat lang mas maganda related sa natapos mo at kailangan nasa listahan pa rin ng skilled ang natapos mo na course in two or 3 years. hwag ka muna mag isip ng pag-aasawa 22 ka pa lang nman. isipin mo kung paano mo ma established ang sarili mo dito sa oz kung dito ka nga mag aaral. Importante may faith, matapang, determination, hindi tamad, may kusa, hindi mapusok o madamdamin at madiskarte ka dapat kung mag isa ka man sa oz. kailangan malaman ng kamaganak mo na nandito ka kung nagaaral kana para you have guidance to contact. try mo na mag enquire ngayun sa visa option para sa 2013. usually ang start ng school dito January.

    saglit lang student visa baka one to two months lang yun. mag enquire ka sa mga expert dyan sa pinas about student visa. goodluck and best wishes.

    kapag student visa ka allowed you to work maximum of 20 hours per week. at kapag school break allowed you to work 37.5 hours per week. i clarify mo pa rin sa agent baka nabago na ito. Goodluck...

    Yeah, agree rin ako...Magtourist visa ka muna, check mo kung swak sa panlasa mo ang buhay sa Australia...if you decide to stay there for good, I would suggest na magtrabaho ka muna sa Pinas to get sufficient work experience pero mukhang walang issue ang "funds" so puwede rin namang dumeretso ka na kumuha ng permanent or student visa hehe...

    kapag engineer ka sa tingin ko makakahanap ka rin ng work na related sa trabaho. pero is not easy lalo na usually ang tintanung yung local experience. well basta madiskarte ka lang at hwag mag sawa maghanap at mag search sa internet kailangan din may determination ka.

    ang unang gawin mo muna bago ka pumunta dito i search mo sa google ang lahat ng jobsite ng australia. mag sign up ka dun. i prepare mo ang CV mo. kailangan may cover letter ka rin na naka explain na parating ka sa australia and you need work. sa internet ka lang din naman magaapply kahit nasa australia kana.

    pag nasa australia kana. palitan mo address na nakalagay sa cv mo address ng tinitirhan mo at mobile phone number ng australia.

    may discussion dito kung anu yung mga dapat na gawin kapag kararating mo pa lang dito sa australia.

    http://pinoyau.info/discussion/252/things-to-do-first-after-arriving-in-australia#Item_39

    goodluck basta mag research ka at ang lahat ng kasagutan ay nasa google lang.

    Firs pray in GOD for his guidance.

    goodluck cheers
