    San po pwede magjoin na batch / topic forum. Naglodge kasi kami Nov 22 2016. Hehe
    Thanks

    @momnijosh08
    Based sa mga nabasa ko dito, nakabase sa date kung kailan ka nag-lodge ng EOI or Visa ang batch mo, although hindi naman ata istrikto about dito.
    Welcome and congrats!

    Hi po experts. Newbie lang po may questions lng po ako sana mahelp nyo ako or mapoint sa kung san mang group ako pwede magpost ng question na ito.

    Meron po ako ngun na 457 visa as Software Tester in Sydney. Gusto ko magapply ng 189 visa as Software Engineer. Ang question ko po is okay lang po ba ako magpaassess sa ACS as Software Engineer kahit na naka 457 ako na Softwre Tester? Ndi po ba sya magconflict?
    Kapag kasi magpaasses ako sa ACS ng Software Tester ang maapply ko na visa is 190 target ko po sana is 189 visa.

    Need ko lang ng positive outcome from ACS sa tingin ko and if makakakuha ako ng points based from the other points na pwede ko maclaim below? Okay na sana ang 60 points pero based sa statistics ng ACS ngun 65 points and iniinvite nila.

    Kung magiging positive po ang ACS assessment ko as Software Engineer makakakuha ba ako ng 5 points working here in Australia as Software Tester under sa visa ko ngun? (In skilled employment for at least one but less than three years (of the past 10 years).

    May partner po ako and meron syang positive assessment as Analyst programmer although nasa pilipinas sya ngun. Can we use that 5 points and claim for partner points? Need po ba namin tig isa na EOI application?

    Age - 30
    Educ - 15
    Work Exp in Australia - 5 ???
    IELTS - 10
    Partner - 5 ???

    Sana po maguide nyo ako. Many thanks for all your support and guidance. Please po :)

    @lucid2010 i think yung as long as kaya mo ma-match sa software engineer job description ang mga nagawa mong task or nakuhang experience as software tester , i think ok. kasi sabihn naman nila if di mo nameet ang inaaplyan mo na Soft Engr. Ako kasi Soft Engr inapplyan ko kasi sa pinas yan ung position ko. pero di ako nag match. mas match daw sya sa ICT Support Engineer. So inaccept ko na ung nioffer nila. kaya nagkaroon ako ng positive result. mahirap kasi na ireapply ko tapos ayusin ko ung mga nipass ko papers para mapush ko pa din si Soft Engr. baka madeny pa ako.


    tapos lam ko if nag paaccess si partner mo sa ACS and nag english test, pwede mo sya add para plus 5 points. un ay kung kasama sya sa application mo as Dependent. Ikaw ang Main applicant. if plan mo magsolo, lam ko di mo magagamit. Kung plan mo naman na mag dala dependent, either married or defacto ata ung status nyo pag ganun. though kami lumusot ni partner as engaged. di lang nagamit partner points kasi mababa ako sa english test.

    @MayoMay salamat sa insight. De facto kasi kami SS. Bale ndi ko na sya sinama sya application ko. Naglodge na ako ng EOI nitong April. As for her na nasa 457 mabuti na lang at na grandfather sila nun visa na un. I aapply pa din sila ng PR bago mag march 2018.

    Wish ko lang wag magbago ulit ung list kasi Analyst Programmer un ni nominate ko.

    not sure po if may sasagot pa sa thread na to. try ko lang din..
    Me and my fiance got married nitong Oct. lang. we already have our visas last Feb. and nakapag initial entry na kami..
    pero using my maiden name (dependent)..
    Currently my passport is still under my maiden name. and about to expire na sa june nxt year. plan namin mag big move mid January. Dilema ko is gaano katagal kaya makuha ung PSA Marriage cert para maupdate ko ang status ko sa immi account.

    tapos siempre before iupdate si Immi dapat same na sa passport. wala na schedule ng appointment available for nov-dec. kaya matry ko pa sa January. mas ok ba na kapag nakapag palit ako ng passport gamitin ko na married name then update si Immi account , upload ang bagong passport details and PSA Marriage cert? saka magbigmove?

    If ever pala, sabi pwede daw na ang married name na gamitin ung surname ko hypenated ng surname ni hubby... based sa PH law... if ever un gamitin ko, paano sa mga forms sa AU..

    halimbawa: Maiden Name: Mayo Reyes Cruz
    though nagkamali ata ako kasi sa visa ko.. ito nalagay ko
    Given Name: Mayo Reyes
    Last Name: Cruz
    dapat ata Mayo lang given name;


    Married Name: Mayo R. Cruz-Sabal (wherein Sabal ang surname ni hubby)
    paano sa mga papers sa AU. if given name and last name lang required.
    magiging given name: Mayo Last name: Cruz-Sabal na lang ba sya?

    Hi!
    Anyone of you has been requested Japan police clearance?
    Binuksan nyo po ba ang envelope? Sabi kasi ng consulate it it will be invalid if I opened it instead of Australian Immigration.
    I emailed the CO for permission though, and still waiting for the reply.

    @MayoMay why don't you wait po to settle muna sa OZ? from experience lang po, yun ibang countries they are not very particular sa pag change ng apelyido ng wife. my wife still uses her maiden name, passport,IC, license, etc. it's more convenient kasi wala na aasikasuhin na docs. Even sa Pinas, natanong lang kami initially about her SSS,philhealth and Pagibig, pero once we present naman yun marriage cert, ok na din.
    btw, we are already 7 years married hehe. and i don't mind naman na she still uses her maiden name. my 2 boys use my surname naman :-)

    @MayoMay dito po kami SG based, hopefully by next year AU na. yup lahat ng docs married declared nya pero maiden name gamit nya. no problem naman even here. for example, when we bought a house here, prinesent lang namin yun marriage cert namin na notified (red ribbon) ng Philippine embassy, wala naman na sila kinwestyon samin. sa mga ID nya dito maiden name din ang gamit nya. jan naman sa Pinas nagamit namin yun Philhealth and SSS sa mga claims nun nanganak sya year 2012,when we decided na jan sya manganak sa Pinas, prinesent din lang namin yun marriage cert, wala na din further question. ano po ba say ni Mister, open minded ba sya kung maiden name mo ang gagamitin?

    bro @kaidenMVH , ask ko lang po if sa SG po kayo kinasal.. if not, so pwede po ipa-red ribbon NSO marriage contract po sa PH embassy ? i thought ang mapapa-red ribbon lang is documents released in SG..

    a year from now, you will wish you had started today
