Just received an offer for work in AU under visa 457 po. Altho di ko pa ina-accept ang offer. Anyway, I just want to be ready po. Quick questions please:
-Once nomination is lodged, what are the documents I need to proceed my visa application?
-Is COE required for visa application? Anhirap po kasi na magresign na and magiging jobless while waiting for the visa
-External audit po ung job ko, do I have to take IELTS? Anybody here who tried to apply for English exemption thru certification of English as medium of language? Pano po un?
Thank you and God bless you all!
