Dear Xxxx,
Thank you for advising us of your situation.
As you will remember part of your migration application required you to commit to living in XXX for two years. Your agreement to this commitment was a primary reason why you were granted a visa to Australia and you signed a declaration in this regard.
We expect all applicants to honour this commitment.
However, at the same time we understand that you do have to find work in order to make a living.
Note that you are still required to complete the surveys regardless of where you live and failure to do so is a breach of the sponsorship conditions.
It would be useful if you could provide us with further information on what you found difficult about finding employment in xxxxx and how we could potentially help other migrants.
Please quote Reference Number: M-XXXX in all of your communication to us.
Kind regards,

I have been applying before and after my visa grant. Lagay na nating for the past 4 months or more. Merong mga nagrespond ng rejections siguro nasa 20 na at karamihan di na pumansin. Lahat seek.com.au. So medyo katulad nyo worried din ako na makakita work sa SA although SA talaga ang tingin kong maganda tirhan and I will still continue to try looking for work habang wala pa dun.
Interested lang ako malaman experience ng mga talaga hindi nagpaalam sa state or hindi man lang dumating dun... ang alam ko may mga iilan din na hindi man lang nasilayan yung sponsoring state due to different reasons like nagkaroon ng trabaho, pamilya, etc...
ano na naging status nila? at kinontak ba sila ng sponsoring state? at kung naapektuhan ba application nila for citizenship?

Though 11 months nakung nagtratrabaho sa company ko, d na rin maganda ang situation ng employer ko lately. Nagkaron na kami ng maraming redanduncy at one month nakong walang project so nagdedelikado na, hindi lang mga empleyado kundi pati rin buong company. I am looking for opportunities in Sydney at meron nmn nakapansin saken nag-undergo nako ng ilang phone interviews at feeling ko magiging maganda nmn ang result and I am planning to grab it kung maibigay man saken. Mas maganda sana kung makapag-paalam aku ng maaga.
Thanks in advance.

There might be changes in the rule or it depends on your state sponsor and circumstances. Please note that I will not disclose the states where I should be and where I am now and the timelines.
