    ang sa akin ay BUPA medyo mahal kasi ang medicard...ang sa bupa is 80 per month..at irerefund ang bills mo sa doctors as long as public hospital and sadly di nila sakop ang dental service.....

    I have also a frend with same situation na regional sponsored siya dito sa nsw kaya lang wala siya makitang work kahit cleaner pinatulan nya na...so meyron work na nag offer sa kanya na sa labas ng region na nagsponsor sa kanya pero under pa rin sa regional ng nsw at tinanggap nya sabay inform sa region na nagsponsor sa kanya,how-ever nka 3 tatlong sulat na siya wala man lang response and he wrote a letter sa case officer nya dati regarding the situation and he ask kung may violation ba siya sa kanyang visa,pero sabi ng case officer nya wala nman daw kasi regional nman daw yung pinagtrabahuan nya..medyo ok pero hindi pa rin mawala sa isip o kinakabahan bka daw mag object ang region na nagsponsor sa kanya kung mag file siya ng Pr.pero i told him na i think ok nman kasi regional nman yung pinagtratrabahuan nniya.....and kinon firm rin ng CO Niya.....

    Reply to @sheep: Paano po yung terms of payment nyan sir? do you pay it monthly?
    Siguro po dapat i document na lang nya yung mga email transaction nung CO nila at yung mga emails na napadala nya sa state na nagsponsor sa kanya.

    @k-mavs yung payment ay maroon kang option...whether,weekly,forthnight or monthly ikaw na bhala dyan kasi tatanungin ka nman ng nila.
    @ ausie_yung 80 is for single,yung kasama ko na family with 1 daughter ay 120 pero im not sure...yung public hospital you can ask that to their office kung where ka mag apply..if you want a extras for dental mayron nman kaya lang siyempre dag dag ka din ng bayad....maybe you can email them para sure but of course you can surf the net baka may mas mura pa....cheers!!!!

    just to add:my membership is classic which is not covered ang private hospital admission,however kung gusto nyo na covered sa private hospital admission you have to apply for gold and platinum which medyo mhal ..and the reproductive service,cosmetic surgery,dental and physiotherapy is not covered..

    question naman po, with EOI now in place, mas advantageous ba ang regional skilled sponsorship compared to having the skilled migrations visa? What would you guys advise us. :) Salamat!

    Reply to @lock_code2004: Minsan kasi yung ibang mga employer is mas prefer nila yung may local experience na. Mas maganda rin i research mo muna yung mga job oppurtunities sa Regional areas balak mong puntahan kung mdami ba work na avilable dun. :)

    Reply to @k_mavs: agree.. unless very in demand or unique ang work mo na wala na talgang mahanap na worker from australia..

    but we can see some good examples dito sa forum na nakakuha ng mga work thru website or job agency at na sponsor nmn ng employer.. kaya swertehan lang talga.

    Reply to @jonmichael: wala pa ako sa AU.. kaya i cant really answer on this specifically..

    but i guess, hindi mo sila kailangan iinform before you arrive...
    maiinform mo sila pag nandun kana ... i guess may email contact ang mga state immigration office.. plus may form kayong fifill-upan pagdating dun.. or baka kailangan nyo pumunta sa office nila..

    Mga Kababayan na nadyan na.. please comment on this.. thanks.

    176 visa ako for WA.. ang ginawa ko is i just sent them an email when I arrived. [email protected] supposedly may survey dapat kaso di pa ata nila naaayos system nila. I went to their office kase sabi sa website may fifillupan daw kaso when I went there they say na ok na daw yung email lang..

    Reply to @jonmichael: Hi! I'm on a 475 visa. Ito po yung sagot sakin ni State migration centre WA.

    Please register your arrival into Western Australia by visiting the Skilled Migration WA office at:

    · Level 2, 166 Murray Street
    · Perth, Western Australia 6000

    This registration of arrival will activate your two year commitment to Western Australia that all State sponsored skilled migrants agree to in accepting the Government of Western Australia’s offer of sponsorship.

    To successfully register you will need to the following documents:

    · a copy of your signed State sponsorship agreement;
    · passport; and
    · proof of your permanent Western Australian address*.

    *Acceptable documents include:

    · lease agreement;
    · utilities bill (phone, water, electricity etc.); or
    · Western Australian driver’s licence.

    For further information regarding this process or to book an appointment to register your arrival, please contact Skilled Migration WA by email at [email protected] or by telephone on +61 8 9224 6593 or 13 23 98 from within Australia.

    Yan lng po ang kelalngan na isend sa SMC WA para sa details of your arrival.

    may friend ko na 475 wala na ang pdos kasi sabi you are sponsored by employer pag nagtanung daw ang airport sabihin nyo na lang na REGIONAL SPONSORED kayo kaya di na kailangan ang pdos and hr called also the gov't agency na nag coconduct ng seminar na yan at kinonfirm na wlaa daw.

    @olive-oil i think 95% sure n ayan,may nabasa ako b4 sa forum dati meyron case na ganyan pero may problem yung medical nya kaya nag hingi ng additional medical result parang previous na result ang hinahanap...just pray and submit yourself to god kasi pag para sa iyo yan di yan ibibigay sa iba..

    We left Philippines in November 2012 and we're not required PDOS. Medyo madami lang tanong sa immigration kase parang di sya masaydong familiar with our visa but then nakaalis din without much hassle. Hope this helps.
