    @Metaform thanks po, holding my breath till june 8, hehehe

    Im still relying dun sa explanation ng MA, although im checking the immi.gov.au website and wala akong makita na articles na magsusuport dun sa statement nya na pwedeng ihabol basta mai-file and DIAC application by June 25. Just the same, hinanda ko na yung loob ko na aabutan na nga ng new rule- praying hard lang na yung skill namin nandun pa rin sa new SOL List otherwise, down the drain lahat ng pinaghirapan (and gastos!!) namin.

    @baronann- here is the explanation of SA for the approved SS before July 2012. Hopefully applicable ito sa lahat ng states.. so incase maabutan ng skill select pero may approved SS na, automatic na ang nomination to apply sa DIAC.


    For Approved state sponsorship applicants 1/5/2012 – 28/6/2012

    If you are unable to lodge your visa application and advise Immigration SA by close of business Friday 29 June 2012 then you will need to lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI) through DIAC’s new SkillSelect system before your 60 day sponsorship deadline expires.

    In the EOI please choose "SA" only and the relevant state sponsored visa subclass. Within 5 business days of lodging your EOI, you will need to email your EOI ID and lodgement date (please include your Immigration SA reference number in the email) to [email protected]. Once the EOI ID is received, Immigration SA will then nominate you through the SkillSelect system.

    For Approved state sponsorship applicants from 1 July 2012

    All state sponsorship applications approved after 1 July 2012 will need to lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect. This applies to all GSM state sponsorship visa subclasses, including onshore students. Applicants who would have previously lodged under visa subclasses of 886/487 (onshore) and 176 / 475 (offshore) will need to lodge an EOI under the new 190 (permanent) or 489 (provisional) visa subclasses.

    Once an applicant is approved state sponsorship and has lodged an EOI under one of the new visa subclasses & met DIAC’s requirements, they will be nominated by Immigration SA through SkillSelect and invited to lodge a visa application with DIAC. There is expected to be minimal changes to state sponsorship procedures.

    Reply to @the_BuGS: that is a very valid question.. any thoughts from the more experienced ones?

    based on DIAC's statement below, ang kailangan mo lang is PCC for the last 10 years:

    Meeting the character requirement for temporary and permanent migration
    For the Australian Government to determine whether you are of good character, you may be asked to provide police certificates for each country you have lived in for 12 months or more over the last ten (10) years since turning 16.

    mga kabayan: for UAE police clearance, hiningan po ba kayo ng letter from DIAC?
    sa Abu Dhabi police kasi may nakalagay sa requirements nila:
    - An official letter from the agency that requests this certificate

    In case yes, humingi ba kayo sa CO, please share your experience. Thanks!

    Reply to @baronann: Kaya yan. Focus on the weakness. Reach for a band 9 on each category, para kung mag-fail, 8 or 7 ang makukuha nyo. Ika nga, "Reach for the roof and if you fail, you'll fall on the ground. Reach for the stars and if unsuccessful, you'll fall on the roof."
