I am coming home to PH on December after finishing my course, and come back on Feb 2017 to apply for my Grad Visa.
My question is, Di ba magkaka-issue yun sa immigration pag balik ko dito sa AUS? Kasi tapos na ang course ko. Di ba sila magtatanong? Anyone who has similar recent experience with me?

I just got back from our holiday from PH between Dec-Jan and wala naman problem with the visa expiring on March 2018 this year.
But I have a question sana same po kay @ninyeh if anyone can help po @danyan2001us
I am about to lodge our grad visa application; can I include my son who is in PH?
From the immig website it says po
"If you are applying as the main applicant, you and anybody else covered by the application must be in Australia when you apply for this visa and when your visa is decided.
Family members who apply for this visa after the main applicant has been granted the visa may be in or outside Australia when they apply, but must not be in immigration clearance."
Gusto ko po one application na. Ayoko mag subsequent entrant po if possible. Any advise on this matter? Thanks!

Qualifications must be closely related to nominated occupation
The qualification(s) completed must be closely related to the student's nominated skilled occupation. For your qualification to be considered to be closely related to your nominated occupation, the skills underpinning the qualification must be directly transferable to that occupation. This applies to both the subject matter and the level of the qualification. For example, if you nominate 'physiotherapist' as your occupation, a degree in physiotherapy would meet this requirement, but a degree in commerce would not.
Example: Acceptable combinations of study and nominated occupations include:
an applicant who nominates 'Physiotherapist' as their skilled occupation and completes a degree in physiotherapy in Australia
an applicant who nominates 'Air-conditioning and Mechanical Services Plumber' as their skilled occupation who has completed a Certificate III in Plumbing and a Diploma of Plumbing and Services in Australia
Example: A combination of study and nominated occupation that would not be acceptable:
An applicant's nominated occupation is Registered Nurse but they satisfied the Australian study requirement on the basis of having completed a Bachelor of Commerce.

You might need to provide police certificates from each country in which anyone in your application has spent a total of 12 months or more in the past 10 years since turning 16 years of age. The office processing your application will advise you if they need these documents.
(ako nagprovide na para di na sila manghingi )
kailangan masatisfy mo ang Australian Study Requirement and if you are applying for Graduate Work Stream you need to provide Skills Assessment which is on the Immi website.
