South Australia State Sponsorship

fgs

@maureenguelan current processing time is 9-10 weeks but keep an eye on the availability. Each occupation has its quota for each program year(July to June). Depending on the number of applicants and the time you apply. If the quota has been met, you have to wait again another year.

@maureenguelan if you look at SA's occupation list, on the right of each occupation is a color code which determines the availablity status of each occupation.

Hi Guys,

Pano po yung process ng Application sa SA? Yung occupation ko po kasi nasa Supplementary Skilled list and pasok po ako dun sa isang requirement which is high points.

Gumawa na po ako ng EOI ko sa skillselect and ang nakalgaay na preferred state is SA.
Pano po yung process? Wait ko po ba muna yung pre-invite nila bago ako gumawa ng application sa website ng SA? Or need ko na gumawa ng application nila kahit wala pang pre invite?

Dun po kasi sa last step ng website need ng payment na 200AU. So napaisip ako kung need na ba magbayad agad? Kasi sa pagkakaalam ko sa Queensland eh need muna makareceive ng pre invite before mag-apply sa website ng QLD and dun pa lang yung payment.

Help po

@jon1101a Hi! Yes you need to submit application in SA website and pay the fee. No more pre invite from SA, once they approve your application you will get an email from SA and an ITA from DHA in your skillselect account.

jon1101a

@chococrinkle Hello po. I see, so need na pala bayaran yung 200aud kahit wala pang pre-invite. Need na pala magbayad agad ng 200Aud kahit wala pang kasiguraduhan kung maiinvite or hindi. Almost 8k php rin po kasi yun eh.

Nainvite na po ba kayo sa SA?

Hi @chococrinkle I applied for for 190 under SA, okay lang ba na may eoi sa ibang states like NSW? ( created separate EOI for NSW and SA although same email), Naisip ko lng since they ask for commitment during the SA application online... so baka maapektuhan kpag mkita nila na may ibng EOI under saken, when you were invited may iba kpang eoi na nkalodge habng ngaantay ng approval kay SA?

jon1101a

@chococrinkle May idea po ba kayo kung ilang days na dapat mabayaran yung fee? or need talaga bayaran right away? Baka kasi kapag sinubmit ko then wala pa akong pambayad eh maforfeit yung application,

@Hendro kailangan ba ng work offer sa 489? Thanks ;-)

Hendro

Hi @jon1101a as per SA website:

“The fee and surcharge must be paid within 7 days from the date the application being submitted by selecting the ‘submit’ button. If no payment is received after 7 days, the application will be automatically be deleted.”

jon1101a

@Hendro Thank you. So I have 7 days to make a payment.

@jon1101a Hi! Yes need na mgbayad agad ng fee. I submitted my eoi end of nov 2017 and paid the fee right away after submitting the application to SA. I was invited after 3 weeks. We got our visa last April.

@Hendro Im not sure if there’s a way that they will know na you submitted 2 eoi’s since you used same email. Ive read though that SA is quite strict sa sponsorship and they prefer that applicants should tick only SA in their eoi for the sponsoring state, and yes they ask for commitment letter. So if ever they have means to check, Im not sure if your application will be affected. When I applied, kay SA lang open yung occupation ko kaya sa knila lang ako nag submit.

chococrinkle

@pangky_town Sagutin ko na din question mo. If you apply SS with SA no need for job offer for 489.

Hendro

Hello @chococrinkle! oo nga kaya ngdalawang isip din ako knina, since parang malabo nman si NSW I decided na i-suspend ko nalang muna si EOI.

chococrinkle

@Hendro if you think you have better chance with SA might as well grab it kasi ang bilis ng mga changes now, naghihigpit na din ang immi at dami na rin nag aapply. Im not sure how long processing ni SA now pero mostly from what Ive read, as long as tama ang pag claim mo ng points, na satisfy mo lahat ng conditions ni SA, and you submitted all their required docs, most likely approved application na yun within their published lead time. Btw, dont forget to send your score report to SA as well using your pte account kasi they need to have access sa score mo.

Hendro

Hello @chococrinkle salamat sa pagsagot sa mga questions ko, tama ka nga, since sila lng tlga ang open na state for may occupation at 190 pa better na maayos lahat to secure invitation. Yes, both ko snend sa DHA at sa SA.

jon1101a

@chococrinkle Maraming salamat po. Bale 3 weeks yung waiting time pala just in case.
Tapos yung visa grant umabot ng 5 months. Single applicant po ba kayo or with family?

Hendro

@jon1101a based on SA processing time now is 9-10 weeks..

chococrinkle

@jon1101a that was the processing before not sure now. For the visa we lodged Jan 4, Direct grant April 10, a little over 3 months. Yup parang 5 months yung total process from eoi. Family of 4 kami. :-)

Though case to case basis din sa process, under one position and company lang ako and di rin complicated yung case namin kaya siguro medyo mabilis lang process and wala na din CO Contact.

Hi po, ask lang po. nasa list po kasi yung occupation ko kaso po nakalagay na 5 years need ng experience, 2 years palang po exp ko eh. meron po ba naka experience na nag apply ng less than the required exp pero nabigyan po ng sponsorship?

thank you po

chococrinkle

@aj.skywalker You have to meet the conditions they set for you to get an invite. I dont think they have issued invitations for those that did not meet their conditions, as it will be against their published requirements.

Hello! ask ko lang po if sensitive ba si south australia regarding eoi's? as we have a previous one with NSW last May. We already submitted an application for state nomination in south aus pero we created a new eoi and selected south aus only as preferred state.

Is it ok? i'm worried baka makaaffect sa outcome kasi may commitment statement sila =____='

Hendro

I have same question kay @Jbs , I initially applied for NSW, pero since nsa SA tlga ung occupation ko, sunuspend ko muna ung EOI ko kay NSW, iniisp ko bka strict sila at mkita na nglodged din ako ng EOI kay NSW though magkaibang email gamit ko...

Meron nabang naivite sa SA na may EOI sa ibng states?

Hello @Hendro, parehas tayo. Nauna nag submit ang agent ko ng EOI sa NSW before SA. Pero nauna ako nakatanggap ng ITA sa SA and since during that time hindi pa ako nakakatanggap ng pre-invite sa NSW, I just went with SA since aabutan na ako ng deadline. Lodged application there last March. I actually got superior sa PTE but my occupation might have something to do with why I didn't receive pre-invite from NSW.

hello po,
sa mga nagsubmit po ng EOI sa SA visa 489, need po bang mag attached ng bank information to prove you financial declarations?

Hendro

Hello @lashes, Hindi na kelngan iattach
ang evidence, need lng ideclare yung amount pag ngfill up, just be ready for the evidence incase they ask, pero so far wla nmn dw hnhingi..

supermadi

Hello po sa lahat ng nakapagsubmit na po for State Nomination, mangangamusta lang po sana kung may nainvite na po ba? Waiting po kame coming to 4th week. Makikibalita lang sana. Salamat po.
