    Hi po,
    regarding the Visa 489 - sponsored by a relative, required po ba ang occupation ko ay nasa Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) or pede kahit nasa Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL)?

    "If you are nominated by an Australian state or territory, your occupation must be on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL).

    If you are sponsored by a relative, your occupation must be on the relevant list of eligible skilled occupations."

    Confusing kasi ung list of "eligible skilled occupations" e.

    Thank you.

    @ClmOptimist May not be helpful but previously, if you are relative sponsored your occupation has to be in the SOL. Di ko na alam equivalent ngayon.

    you can use that pero the case officer always has the discretion to request for a recent one, kaya mas ok hingi ka na lang ng bago.

    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 via a migration agency kaya lang po last 2015 nagkaron 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

    @msjenniferj0y Kapag iniba mo yung nominated occupation, kailangan mo ng skills assessment for that new occupation. Hindi mo pwede ipasa ang assessment for Program or Project Administrator kung ang nominated occupation mo ay Organization and Methods Analyst.

    @maguero 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

    @msjenniferj0y Parang nabasa ko sa ACT website last July na pwede ka mag-apply kung may occupation ka na nasa list nila or kung may relative ka dun. Para sure, mag e-mail ka sa kanila to inquire.

    @AkawntantAnne napansin ko accountant ka pala so mukhang mahaba nga pila para mainvite. Pwede mo naman piliin sabay yung 189 and 489 sa eoi, wait mo na lng siguro saan ka unang mainvite. God bless.

    Hi. ask ko lang po, pag po ba mag-susubmit ng eoi sa parehong 189 at 489 ay magkahiwalay po ba ang bayad nun? or saka ka lang magbabayad ng visa fee pag nainvite ka sa parehong 189 at 489?

    @wela04 Walang bayad ang EOI. You can submit multiple EOIs if you want. Pag na-invite ka lang at mag-lodge ka ng visa application ay doon ka pa lang magbayad.

    Hello po sa lahat!

    Ask ko lng po kung ano ang usual time frame na makakatangap ka ng invite? Lodged our EOI for visa 489 (state sponsored) for South Australia. Nominated occupation is Developer Programmer. And mas may chance bah na ma invite thru this path if short of points than visas 189 and 190?

    Salamat po sa sasagot.

    @dutchmilk Nag-submit ka na ba ng application for state nomination sa SA? Besides EOI, dapat mag-register ka sa website ng SA Immigration at mag apply ka doon ng state nomination.

    I believe nasa website din nila yung processing time for nomination at depende sa occupation, nakalagay din sometimes yung required points for specific occupation.

    Paki-check mo na lang itong link,
