    Hello po. Ask lang po sana ako if may agencies kayong nalalaman na mag provide ng sponsor visa for nurses after bridging?

    Hi guys I just wanna ask on how you were able to find employers to sponsor you in 457 visa? Nagtry lang kasi ako magsubmit ng applications sa seek.com.au. Graduate engineer positions inapplyan ko kasi kakagrad ko palang this June. Matagal na akong merong english exam (both IELTS and PTE) at positive skill assessment kasi original target ko 189 visa, pero ang tagal ng invite ko kasi low points lang ako even with superior english. Any insights for someone like me aspiring to get a 457 visa? Thanks!

    @MLBS im not sure if they give graduate positions to foreigner as cadetship program usually is reserved for graduating students or recently graduate from local uni. It sure is worth a try applying though... good luck sa apps

    John 14:14

    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.

    @athan2017 u can lodge 457 visa onshore as long as walang no further stay restriction ang tourist visa nyo. Once ma lodge onshore. U will get bridging visa. (As per our agent)

    @bettyboop yong restrictions po sa visa ko are 8101- no work and 8201- study max to 3 mos. How can I know if there is a 'no further stay' condition imposed on my visa?

    Hindi ko alam kung ano code.. nakalagay yun sa visa conditions na "no further stay". Anyway mahirap maghanap ng employer na mag sponsor while on tourist visa. Maliban nlng cguro kung in demand ang job mo at completo docs like IELTS,skills assessment( if required)etc. Risky talaga. Mas better if may employer ka na na nahanap at onshore mo e apply..most likely you may bear all the expenses needed while waiting sa result ng visa 457
    And btw,we lodge our visa onshore but its not 457. VIC SS visa 190 lodge namin kasi na invite kami.

    @MLBS It's tough considering the competition nowadays however, it is POSSIBLE. Apply lang ng apply! hehe Wala naman mawawala, depende din sa field mo kasi yan talaga. Ako onshore ako nag hanap ng work nun, several interviews thru skype lang. I had to leave the country at that time kasi employed pa ko elsewhere. Nung natanggap na ko, I resigned and filed for 457 visa offshore.

    @nursekc Yes. My wife and I went together last year. There shouldn't be any problem if you are able to provide enough proof and necessary documents. I know heaps of people who've done that. Came on a 457 with a defacto then 3 months later nag apply ng PR. No big deal here if you're married or not when it comes to application. However, yun nga , make sure na talagang magprovide ka ng evidence including staturoy declaration about your relationship. Pictures with dates, invitations, travel itineraries, bank accounts, letters, emails, chats, land property, tax etc etc.

    Nurse din ba sya?

    May question po ako. Granted na ang 457 ko pero sabi saken sa POEA kelangan ko pa daw Polo verified contract. Ang nabanggit saken ng employer ko eh 300 dollars daw bayad. Malaki na nagastos nila para sa visa ko kasi... so mejo nagdadalawang isip sila sa dagdav gastos. Covered naman lahat ung repatriation ko, pati flight ko etc. white collar ung trabaho ko. May chance kaya makapagOEC ng wala un? Un na lang kasi kulang ko eh. One year nakong unemployed dito sa pinas. Pano na lang pagnagbackout na to :(
