why people are so fussy about 489...

JohndAU

hello. patanong lang po, may pending application kami under 489 .. and as a couple, in case magka-baby kami after moving to Australia while still under 489, ano po magiging status ng baby? also under 489 visa? thank you.

batman

@JohndAU yup afaik same visa ng parent si baby.

JohndAU

thanks @batman and by the way, thank you very much for your PTE materials, I think I was able to save it from one your posts in the PTE threads.. materials mo ang nireview ko last week.. along with materials from @jedh_g and @warfrekk ..and finally after 7 exhaustive tries, got my superior scores over the weekend.

batman

@JohndAU your welcome. 489 visa ba target mo, under what occupation?

JohndAU

Inapply kami bale ng agent both under 189 (75 pts) and 489 with QLD and NSW (85 pts).. since pahirapan invites for Accountants, assess pa namin if need to claim for partner 5 points.

San ka nagtake ng test Sir dito sa Dubai? magkano po ang fee? May promo code ka ba? thanks!

JohndAU

AED1,000 sa JNS Business Bay ako nag-take, previous takes sa Silicon Oasis.. try this code PECU95408C44 I think applies only to first time takers, hopefully you can use it. good luck!

Hi im planning to apply my 489 po sana..
Kasi mukang matagal pa tong 189 na to.. maeexpired na visa ko sa 2020...
Ang tanong ko po, if kunwari may489 na ako and mabago ang rules... like after 3 yrs pa bago makapag apply ng PR para sa 489...meaning ba non pasok na ko wa bagong rules?? Or old rules padin na which is after two years?? Thank you

Hunter_08

@groovez10 kapag nainvite at nagka visa ka sa old rule ka pa din mag aapply if ever na magbago sila ng guidelines for PR but i dont think mangyayari yun.

groovez10

@Hunter_08 thank you Hunter...
mas mabilis po ba mag bigay ITA sa 489 kesa sa 189/190?? Kasi nagpasa na ko ng 190.. im worried lang baka mamaya abutin expiration ng visa ko tnx po

RheaMARN1171933

@Hunter_08 @groovez10 this all depends on how the government will implement the new rule if there is to have one. It’s not for us to assume and speculate.

groovez10

@RheaMARN1171933 sa bagay po
Ganon na nga

Hi guys. Ask ko lang need ba ng ielts bago mag apply sa 489 visa. Newbie here hehe. Sinubaybayan ko tong thread n to. Ask ko lang ano first step na dpt ko gwn. I.t line ko 24 yrs old ako. My uncle ako dto sa nsw and andto ako now visit visa. Chinek q na dn work ko ACT comp networks. Wala pa ako ielts salamat po ng mrme. More power sa thread n to. Grats sa lahat ng na grant na..
Dagdag ko na din. Pg ng apply b ko ng 489 pd dn akong mag add ng family member ksma ko? Sister ko isasama q. Never married ako slamat.2 years sa qatar as i.t specialist then 1 year sa pinas i.t specialist din

MLBS

@nickoryanfang first step sa lahat ng applications is english exam. You might want to check out PTE too. Try to read up on different visas and see what you can go for.

jaceejoef

@nickoryanfang first step is to take the english exam. common english exams are PTE and IELTS.

kung sa ACS, pwede unahin ang assessment kasi di naman kailangan ng english exam result.

you can check the timelines in our signatures to get the idea of the flow of visa application.

Good luck!

nickoryanfang

gamit ko cp nung una d ko mkta Signature. now ko lng nkta,, wow ang galing nmn maybayad n b ang pa submit sa skill select 263111 ako ACS . target ko po sana 489 (Fam) sa ngayon d p kakayanen ang student 230kper sem ako, + mag ielts p . gsto ko sana mga 400k ang budget ko para my extra ako. NSW ung uncle ko

@MLBS nag student visa ka kaht wala pang experience doon sa pag aaralan mo ?

MLBS

@nickoryanfang yes sir habol ko points din para sa PR e. May positive assessment na kasi ako last year pa kaya mas gusto ko nalang sa AU at least kikita pa ako pera. Sa pinas walang ipon e baba sahod haha.

MLBS

@nickoryanfang ang 489 family din pala low priority yun. Kung may matitirang invites sa 189 saka lang maiinvite 489, pero pag walang natira walang 489 invites.Last year pa ako may 489 family EOI pero di ako nagkaroon ng invite. 70 pts ako dun with sponsorship na. Ngayon 80 pts minimum and 10 lang iniinvite per month kaya di sya ganun ka viable na option e

nickoryanfang

@MLBS haha ganon pala.. akala ko need ng experience bago ka mkapag apply sa course n gsto mo.. kase last year my invitation n dn ako sa school e.. DIY lang ako,, kaso na short ako sa pera.. ang exp ko ay puro i.t kaya sa field ako ng i.t . nag try ako sa ibang course ..rejected pa or conditional offer..plan ko sana mag shift ng nursing if possible .. hehe ask ko lang .. uni ka ba?
ano n balita sa student lodge mo

MLBS

@nickoryanfang no need na may exp ka if you plan on studying a certain course. Pag lilipat ka kasi ng discipline, kailangan ma explain mo kung bakit kaya yun ang tricky part. College lang ako humanap lang ako ng murang course for the sake lang ng points e. Granted na ako nung december 2 pagkasubmit ko.

nickoryanfang

Paanong kailangan ng discpline. Thats my path din for sure. I need to finish din sa aussy .mgkno tution mo

MLBS

@nickoryanfang kunwari IT ka tas mag aaral ka ng culinary, questionable yun. May work exp ka naman di ba so why not directly apply for PR? You need a positive assessment and an english test. Student visa does not guarantee a direct path to PR. Habok ko pts sa study e so mura lang tinake ko, around 6k aud a year.

nickoryanfang

@MLBS saan ung 6k a year,, ang alm ko pde ka mag hanap ng work dba after ng course mo ? para sponsorhsip ka. nako 24 lang ako tpos 3 years lang exp ko . 2years sa qatar hehe

MLBS

@nickoryanfang depende yung fee sa level ng aaralin, course saka school mismo. I suggest na magbasa basa muna kayo ng ibat ibang visa (189, 190, student) kasi yung sponsorship na sinasabi nyo is hindi assured

nickoryanfang

2 years n sgro ako sa thread n to. medyo nagulat ako kase sbrang mura nung tuition mo sa isang taon .kaya nag ttnong ako hehe kung anong lugar yon at school bka kse my branch non d2 samen,nsa new southwales ako ngaun sa new castle.. nag basa n dn ako sa mga ibang visa,, student and 489 ang pnka path ko family sponsor,, 189 and 190 medyo mhhrpn ako sa exp p lng ng work ko .. sana mabgyn mo kme ng idea salmat lodi. more power sa group na to @MLBS

MLBS

@nickoryanfang dna kingston school ko. Work health and safety ang course. I used cricos para mahanap mga schools nung nagreresearch ako before

FearFactory_17

Good point THREAD STARTER. On my case, the only visa type that is available is 489. Kaya no choice. Kaya lahat ng requirements like skills assessment, english test (which I took 4 times just to get the needed points), etc.. inayos ko lahat. I envy those professions na maraming open na States, unlike mine 2 states lang for 489 visa nga which means, there are certain requirements to meet para ka maka-apply for SS.

I know my chance is slim compared to others, pero laban lang and who knows.
If it's His will, un na un.

maguero

@FearFactory_17 Tama yan. Pareho tayo na 489 lang available in 2 states. Yung isang state kailangan may job offer and yung isa mataas required points. Pero go lang ng go. Nakuha ko rin yung visa ko recently after almost 2 years.
