Skilled Migrant Regional Visa (489) Application

MariaElsa

Good day! I am a newbie in this site. I am as well a newbie in applying for a Skilled migrant Regional Visa (489) the one po supported by a family member.

Just for a background, I am a professor then my first cousin na AU citizen na is inviting me to go to AU and is willing to support me. Currently I am reviewing for IELTS exam. Plan ko po mag submit nang EOI after the iElts results.

My question po is, what are the step by step process of application? How po ina asses ang skills? After EOI dba po I will wait for a VISA application invitation? How long po sya possible mag rrun?

Sorry ang dami kong queries. I hope someone will take time to answer my questions. It will higly be appreciated po. Salamat. You are blessed!

P.S. By the way, nag send na ang cousin ko nang letter of invitation stating her support financially and sa lodging. She will as well let me handle her business habang nag wo work sya. Thanks

@MariaElsa Check mo ito https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Work/Skills-assessment-and-assessing-authorities/skilled-occupations-lists

Kapag relative sponsored mukhang kailangan nasa MLTSSL ang occupation mo. Kung wala dyan pero nasa STSSL, pwede ka naman mag-apply ng 190 visa. Mas maganda rin yun kasi PR na agad.

MariaElsa

Hello @maguero ! Salamat sa reply. I'm honestly having a hard time with all the applications na hindi ko alam san mag sisimula. hehe. Your suggestion is of great help. But do you think with my qualifications I can be qualified for 190? Then in that case po if 190 applyan ko, how can my relative sponsor can help in the application in any way? Thanks. Sorry ang daming tanong.

I hope you'll still find time to answer me. You're blessed!

@MariaElsa Ang pinaka-unang step ay i-identify kung aling occupation ang ino-nominate mo sa application mo. I-Google mo na lang ang Anzco occupation list. Nakalista dun lahat ng occupations na ni-rerecognize ng Australia and NZ for migration. May description din per occupation kung ano ang tasks and skills na dapat meron para ma-consider kang qualified for that occupation. Makikita mo rin dun kung sino ang mag-aassess ng skills mo. For example, ang mga engineers ina-assess ng EA, ang mga IT ina-assess ng ACS, etc.

Ang next step ay aralin kung ano ang requirements para ma-assess yung skill mo. Kapag hindi ka nakakuha ng positive skills assessment, hindi ka makakapag lodge ng EOI.

In parallel, kailangan mo rin mag-English test. Ito yung IELTS o kaya PTE. Check mo rin sa assessing authority kung kailangan nila na may results ka na sa English test bago ka magpa-assess. Sa EA yata dapat may IELTS results bago magpa-assess.

Pag may positive assessment ka na and may English exam results na pasok sa cut-off, pwede ka na magsubmit ng EOI.

Hindi mo na kailangan ng sponsorship sa relatives mo para sa visa 189/visa 190. Mas maganda ang mga yun kasi direchong PR ka na.

Kung magpapasponsor ka for visa 489, I suggest i-check mo yung link sa Skillselect kung pwede ang pinsan magsponsor.

May thread din dito na step-by-step guide. Marami ka rin matututunan dun

Ito yung ANZCO lists https://www.anzscosearch.com/sol/ (Visa 189 and 489 Family Sponsored) and https://www.anzscosearch.com/csol/ (Visa 190 and employer sponsored)

Hi @maguero ,

Magtatanong na rin ako re 489 family sponsored, nag babalak kasi ako mag apply ng 489, may uncle ako sa NSW post code nya is 2768 pede ba nila ako sponsore and pede din ba ako mag stay sa area nila, if hinde pwede may idea ka ba san area ako pede mag stay?

Medyo di ko lang maintindihan yung nakalagay sa site regarding designated Areas for NSW

New South Wales: Post areas 2311-2312, 2328-2333, 2336-2490, 2535-2551, 2575-2739, 2787-2899 (anywhere except Sydney, Newcastle and Wollongong)

Thanks a lot sa info.

Cheers,

maguero

@Exile Kailangan nakatira ang sponsor mo sa isa sa mga nakalista na postcodes. Pag tinignan sa Google ang 2768, ang lumalabas Glenwood suburb of Sydney. Tama ba na dyan sila nakatira? Hindi designated area ang Sydney.

Subukan mong i-Google yung ibang mga nakalistang postcodes. Mapapansin mong wala sa Sydney yung mga areas na yun.

Exile

@maguero ,

Tama ka glenwood area nga ung uncle ko, so ibig sabihin di nila ako pede ma sponsore since d sila nakatira sa designated area.

Strader

@Exile since nasa SOL yong occupation list mo .. y not try 189 or 190 visa instead of 489 relative sponsorship. PR kana agad kung 189 or 190 aapplyan mo compared to 489 na provisional.

Exile

@Strader naka file na ko EOI for 189 at 190 kaso sarado na ung 2613 kaya 190 nalang pag asa ko, 65 pts lang kasi ako kaya nag tatry maka superior sa PTE for additional 10pts, unfortunately sa July 4 mag 40 na ako so minus 10pts un, not sure kung may naiinvite na 65pts sa 190 kaya tumitingin ako ng ibang option.

Strader

Tiningnan mo na ba ang mga states na open yan occupation mo? Most of the states/territories ikaw mismo mag apply sa site nila to get the ITA. Hindi ka maghintay when u will be invited to lodge visa ikaw mismo mag.apply for state nomination nila

Exile

@Strader d ko alam process ng 489 na state sponsor meron ka ba alam na link pede ko reference or meron ba may idea dto pano step and process ng pag apply ng 489 state sponsor.

Thanks sa mga info nyo, napaka helpful.

Strader

Depende yan sa state. Ang ginagawa ko nagsesearch ako sa google ng website ng bawat state, tapos i will look into the state nominated occupation list or snol. Pag andyan nakalista ang occupation mo pwede ka mag.apply sa kanila.

Meron din ibat ibang style ang processing ng state nomination pero ang alam ko sa SA lang. ^^

Tapos sa website nila andun na ang steps ng apply at iba pa. ^^

Good Day Sir.

I have been reading the forum for a while now and I’m weighing my options on our application. My husband is the principal applicant. He is an Architect with more than 15 years of experience in this field. His sister is in Canberra with a PR status. Since he is already 41 years old, we lack points in 189 and 190. So I thought, applying for 489 would be our best option, right? He will be applying for Architectural Technician but it shows NEC (not elsewhere classified) in this list. What does NEC mean? How can it affect our application? What would be our other options? I hope to hear from you, sir. Thank you very much.

maguero

@poquita08 Here is a guide to the ANZCO classification scheme. NEC just refers to occupations in a group that aren't included in other sub-groups.

@poquita08 You need a minimum of 60 points to be eligible to submit an EOI. I think you can reach this even with low points for age if you can get maximum points for work experience and English skills. Have you already applied for assessment?

Hi Everyone,

Para po sa mga nakaalam, may konting tanong lang po ako about form 80. I hope may makatulong or makasagot po sa questions ko below. Thanks in advance.


Form 80 Questions:


**Part H - Proposed Travel or further stay

Question 24 - Are you applying for a temporary visa?
Tanong: Pag naka visa 489, temporary po ba ito or hinde?


Further Stay

Question 28 - Are you applying for a temporary visa?
Tanong: Pag naka visa 489, temporary po ba ito or hinde?

Question 29 - Do you have any proposed or booked travel for your departure from Australia?
Tanong: Kung wala pa namang grant okay lang na ba na "NO" yung sagot?


**Part I - Address(es) in Australia


Located Outside Australia

Question 31 - Do you know any details of the places you will stay during your time in Australia (eg. Hotel, friends, relatives)?
anong: Kung wala pa namang grant okay lang na ba na "NO" yung sagot?

AIR

kung wala talagang kakilala, ok lang naman na no. pero i think maganda rin if magSearch in advance kahit backpacker's accommodation, kasi cheaper & realistic. alam nmn nila na you will possibly change your mind if may visa na kasi maghahanap rin nmn talaga ng flat/unit na mauupahan, dba? ngayon nga naisip ko na "ano kaya kung mag-share tayo ng rent sa isang unit"? masyado ba akong advance?
let me know your thoughts... in the future... focus muna tayo sa mga forms & procedures Positive lang ang mindset. God bless.

AIR

I'm referring to Q31 in my prev post. tnx.

AIR

Yung Q24 is proposed travel, so yes. Yung Q28 further stay kasi yan. tama si @Strader No na sa Q28. Sana may magShare. Hanap ako ng guide sa DIBP. gtg. brb.

Strader

@AIR proposed travel and further stay ata yan for question 24 so No kasi mga short visit visa cguro ibig sabihin nya kasi may further stay or overstay din na tanong.
Meron kasi ibang applicants na nag aapply ng skilled migration tapos meron din sila tourist visa while waiting sa result ng gsm na application.

Good day po sa lahat gusto ko po sana humingi ng advice and at the same time get more information about visa application.

Last 2009 nag apply po ako for VE SubClass 176 Skilled Sponsored Migrant through a migration agency kaya lang po last 2015 nagkaroon ng Cap and Cease of Application and I was refunded the money for my visa application.

This year po I'm looking at lodging another application for Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489) for the Invited pathway. Meron po akong cousin at uncle na matagal na pong citizen (sila rin yung nag sponsored po sa akin for the 176 visa)

Based po sa points calculator I got 75 points. I already took IELTS pero I'm thinking its expired na so I will need to take another one. Hopefully, I will get 7 band scores ulit.

My question po is regarding the VETASSESS, yun nominated ko pong occupation last time is Program or Project administrator and na assess po ako for that and I got a positive outcome. Pwede ko po bang gamitin ito once nag nominate ako ng bagong application for the "Organisation and Methods Analyst" which is listed now in the Migration (IMMI 17/072: Specification of Occupations and Assessing Authorities) Instrument 2017.

About lodging naman po the application, I understand I need to write first EOI via SkillSelect now. Is it advisable po ba to take IELTS and submit another assessment for the new occupation?

Any advise po and help will be appreciated.

Salamat po

guenb

@msjenniferj0y yes since expired na yung dati mung documents(up to 2years lang I think) you need to have a new assessment & ielts. No need to make an EOI if wala pa result for both since you'll be needing the reference #s.

msjenniferj0y

@guenb thank you po for replying. Ayusin ko muna po lahat ng papers ko before ako mag lodge ng EOI.
Then may nabasa po ako about ACT closed na daw po for overseas applicants pero if you have close ties like family then you can still apply. Also, yun nominated po na job ko asa list sya pero when I check sa ACT closed na din po yun application. Ibig po bang sabihin hindi na ako pwede mag Apply ng visa?
Maraming salamat po ulit sa mga magrereply.
