1. dapat nila linawin yan kung kanino sila reporting. but a 457 visa by law in australia is directly tayo reporting sa employer (sponsor ng visa natin). at needed na ang sahod is through a bank. so ung friend mo directly niya matatanggap ang sahod (taxable). Hindi ko lang sure kung magkano ang minimum na sahod by law for a 457 visa. estimate ko is 60K annually. Bigyan kita ng example.

- I have a friend na working in philippines, yung company niya is ipapadala siya dito sa australia to work for 8 months under branch nila sa autralia. to do that ng sponsor si australia branch ng 457 visa for him. and yung work niya sa philippines is being stopped or paused for the meantime. pag natapos na yung work niya babalik siya sa pinas at resume yung work niya doon OR pwede siya ma absord ni austrlia branch at di na babalik sa pinas na branch.

2. personal expenses (food, accommodation and etc) is not NOT SHOULDERED for a company here in Australia since you are considered as employee already. some may give allowance but depends on the contract. dapat review nila ung pinirmahang kontrata nila.

3. sila lang mkakasagot bakit marami sila boss, baka marami sila pinirmahan at meron na sila kasunduan bago umalis ng pinas. as rule 457 visa employee is directly reporting sa sponsoring company.

4. if that contract is from austalia company under 457 visa, working 38 hours, im pretty sure meron din nakasulat regarding overtime and ot pays plus benefits. kasi strict si australia regarding employee welfare. review na lang ung pinirmahan nila. not unless ang sinsabing contract is ung pinirmahan nila sa agency if meron man.

Pag 457 visa holder ka dito sa Au, that means sponsored ka ng Au company. Yung swledo nila ay ayon na sa batas ng govt ng Australia. Kung ano yung pinirmahan na contract nila (both parties, visa holder and sponsoring company) ay yun dapat ang masusunod.
Kung ako sa kanila, kakausapin ko yung sponsoring employer (Au company) at clarify yung contract or situation.

eto link ng migrante, pwede din sila humingi ng advice dito: http://migrante.org.au/

pero mas okay sa akin na kausapin deretso yung employer (yung nag sponsor) para may clarification.

madaming visa 457 holders ang exploited/oppressed. may mangilan ngilang Au company ang nag te take advantage din ng situation pero very rare eto dito. Usually mga agency sa pinas ang madalas na nag te take advantage sa mga 457 visa applicants.

Kaya konting ingat.

tahnks po kay sir milkan and isidro

jkeith · November 2014

matanong ko pang po, kapag employer sponsored po ba, kailangan din ng mga certificates at dapat nakalista sa SOL ang work mo? Nag aapply po kse ako sa isang oilrigg sa aust, pero wala po akong idea about 457 visa.

epiboy99 · November 2014

@jkeith

You can read the information in this website. It may give you an idea about occupations for 457 visa.

jkeith · November 2014

Thank you

chengpenol · November 2014

good day! kindly share some info naman po, I had an interview from an AU company then that time nag stop po sila ng recruitment after a month nag email sila asking how long would be the visa processing and when can iI move to AU. I have not replied yet kase wala akong idea if how long more or less ang processing ng visa. Btw, Im here in Dubai. Please share some info, I badly need it! Thanks!

rgr · February 2015

Dear all,
Question lang po. Ano na po ba latest process ng visa application? May kausap na ko na agent. Pero wala pa siyang definite instructions na binibigay sakin. May contract na ko sa employer. Thanks and hope to read your comments/suggestions.

aanover · February 2015

Hi @rgr ,
In my case, my sponsoring employee facilitated and coordinated everything with the MA. Iningian lang nila ako ng requirements such as Passport, CV, Qualifications, Employment Reference, IELTS (yung iba di na po nag take ng IELT, they just provided evidence from school that english was their medium of language).

There are 3 phases nung application:
Sponsorship - if your AU employer is not yet an approved Sponsoring Business then they'll have to lodge an application to be one.
Nomination - When sponsorhip gets approved, they will then Lodge an application nominating you for the position.
Application - when the nomination gets approved, you will then need to undergo your own application for 457 visa

Yung MA na nagprocess ng papers ko lodge everything (sponsorship, nomination and application) all at the same time. So when the sponsorship and nomination got approved, they already have my application and immediately requested for medicals and health insurance coverage.

Nasa Pinas po ba kayo? You may also want to check the standard POEA employment contract http://www.poea.gov.ph/docs/sec_various_new.pdf. Since direct hire tayo, we need to secure OEC before we can leave PH on 457 visa. I had my contract revised to include section 12(repatriation of remains in case of death)

Hope this helps. GoodLuck!

rgr · February 2015

I think approved sponsoring business na din ung employer ko kasi may mga kasamahan na ako na nandun na sa kanila since 2012. Pero during their time bg pag-alis nila iba pa ang processing ng visa dahil di na daw sila nag-undergo ng skills assessment.

Another question, since direct hire ba di na kailangan yung Phil representative(license recruitment agency) dun sa OEC?

aanover · March 2015

@rgr no need na but they need to evaluate your contract. They were very specific on repatriation, termination and leaves. If they can't see those on your contract they will give you a conforme that needs to be signed by your employer.

rgr · April 2015

@aanover thank you very much. May visa na ko (just granted this week) and plane ticket also. Mabilis kumpara sa expected ko. Ano ba mga Philippine exit requirements? Sa pagkakabasa ko Pdos and OEC lang tama ba?

aanover · April 2015

@rgr Yes OEC and PDOS. For OEC, in my case, pinalagay ko lang sa employer ko yung repatriation of remains sa contract ko then the evaluator during contract evaluation(step1) ndi na ako binigyan ng conforme form na need ipaaccomplish sa employer. Sang state po kayo?

priction · June 2015

Tanong ko lang po sa mga na grant na ng 457 visa? Nung nag jobhunt pa lang kayo, online application lang ba ginawa nyo like seek.com.au? At ano po ang contact number na nilalagay nyo para mapansin ng employer? Salamat po.

bytubytu · June 2015

@priction

Lahat ng application ko online lang. Madami dami din iyon. 3 lang nagkainteres. Fortunately, natanggap sa first interview. Nilagay kong contact numbers ay both yung AU at PH numbers ko. Pero mostly, email sila mag contact.

priction · June 2015

@bytubytu

Salamat bytubytu, napansin ko sa timeline ng application mo nagpunta ka muna ng AU, dapat bang mag land muna dun once para ma consider ka for a job? Nag work din ako sa SG before for 3 yrs at nagtatry na rin akong mag apply sa AU habang nandun ako noon pero no luck. Eto balik Pinas na ako, working na ulit dito pero try ko pa rin mag apply sa AU. Yun talaga dream ko. So initially kokontakin ka nila sa email then sasabihin nila kung available ka for phone interview or skype?

bytubytu · June 2015

Nagpunta ako sa AU kasi need ko talagang pumunta for my bridging program para maging RN ako. Yung rrmaining time ko after registration ang job hunt time ko. Madalas phone interview ako may isang nagdecline kasi gusto nila personal.

I think dapat na start mo na yung application mo for registration sa AU or registered ka na para ma-consider ka nila. Or at least patapos ka na.
