Hi newbie here

mjoymd888mjoymd888 ManilaPosts: 3Member
Hi everybody. I am interested in working as a doctor in australia. I am presently a practicing anesthesiologist here in manila. I did some readings already, and found out that i can just apply under the standard pathway. My question is, do i need to get the gsm visa 189 first before proceeding with the pathways by AMC? An immigration consultancy company here is offering that service of getting the gsm visa 189, (fil-global ltd), with the initial payment of 38k to enter the programme. I am quite skeptical about this. Can anyone here help me regarding this matter? Maraming salamat po!

    For visa 189 you can DIY your application like most of us are doing or did here. Alternatively you can also get a migration agent to help you. Check our list of migration agents on the menu above or verify your preferred agent at mara.gov.au if they are legit. All the best to your au plans.
