    @fgs Habol ko na din po sa clarification... 1 year fulltime work means 365days fulltime work or 261days working days (as of 2018). Pasensya medyo nalito ako duon. Hindi ko pa mahanap yung direct link sa respective governing body para mag inquire.

    I worked fly in fly out and my work roster is 2 weeks on 2 weeks off, meaning i worked only 6 mos in total in 1 year...i noted this because they look at not just the hours but also the total amount earned and other factors which i dont know...any inquiries regarding immigration can be directed to www.homeaffairs.gov.au "contact us" details...focus on looking for work first, you have 2 years to figure it out..goodluck

    Ive just checked immi website it seems they have made a new version of the website. For 887 application, unlike before, it is not indicated anymore in the documents checklist that dependents need evidence of 2 years stay in regional area. So it means only primary applicants need to comply this, as there was a confusion before. This is good news for us who will apply in the future, and hoping no major changes until then.

    PTE Writing Tips

    For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.

    Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.

    Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.

    4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.

    If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.

    If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.

    Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.

    For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence

    Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

    Thats always the case.....only the primary applicant is required to fulfill the 2 years residency and 1 year fulltime work..the website does not clearly specify those req for dependents thats why its confusing.

    @fgs Yes, thats true. Good thing they corrected already in their website.

    Btw, if I may ask, since you have mentioned that your shift is 2 weeks straight then 2 weeks off, you think DHA can also consider those that meet an average of 35 hrs only, combining all shifts in a month? My husband’s shift varies every week. In a month, he has 2 weeks of 33 hrs, and 2 weeks of 38.5 to 43 hrs. On the average per month, he still gets 35 hrs a week only that the length of shifts varry. Do you think DHA will still consider this?

    Another option would be, to submit only the payslips that meet the 35 hrs, around 2 payslips per month, within 2 years. Is this also acceptable?

    Just checking our possible options in the future. Thanks

    I am not sure but as what i have mentioned, they also look at the annual amount earned. If it meets the minimum, then i guess theres no problem.

    Hello po.. Merun po sana ako inquiry kung may nakakaalam. Approve na po ang 489 visa ko. Naka 1st entry na din ako. Kaso di pa ko nag bibigmove kase di pa ko nakakahanap ng work, which is I tried to do it offshore and online. Tanong ko lang po kung may alam kayo na rules and regulations na kelangan nasa OZ na dapat while searching for a job? Mag 1 year na din po mula nang ma approve visa ko. Am having hard time leaving my current job at bka di agad makahanap ng work sa Oz. Please help...

    Thanks po...

    @Tinkerbella Pareho tayo na 489 visa pero nung December lang na-grant yung sa akin. Wala naman rule na dapat nasa Oz pag naghanap ng job pero sa mga nababasa ko, mas preferred ng employers na mainterview face-to-face yung applicants. Pero may mga nakakahanap naman ng job while offshore.

    Sa tingin ko ang kailangan natin i-bear in mind is yung visa natin mag-eexpire after 4 years. Hindi sya parang 189 or 190 na permanent visa. Kaya importante na within the 4 years na valid yung ating visa ay maka-comply tayo sa requirement na tumira ng 2 years and magwork ng 1 year sa sponsoring state para maka-apply tayo for 887 visa. Pag pinatagal natin ang pag-BM mas lumiliit yung chance na maka-comply tayo.

    PTE Writing Tips

    For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.

    Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.

    Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.

    4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.

    If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.

    If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.

    Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.

    For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence

    Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.
