Please help. What Visa should we apply

jayzel · January 2015

Hi po sa lahat!
Hihingi lang po sana ng advice kung anong visa ba dapat naming e-apply. My husband is a 457 Visa holder at 2 kaming dependents niya ng anak naming 9 year old. Nagwork siya sa Perth for 2 years and 5 months. After nun, nahire siya dito sa Sydney so dito na po kami for 6 months now. Gusto sana namin mag-apply ng permanent residency as as an individual hindi yung Employer nominated. So alin pong visa ang pinaka appropriate na maapplyan namin? Nalilito ako sa kakabasa at saan dapat magsimula.

Sana po matulungan niyo kami. Need na namin mag-apply kasi malapit ng ma-expire yung 457 isa namin.

Maraming salamat po. Happy New Year!

Hi @jayzel sa pagkakaalam ko po visa subclass 189 kung di kayo magpasponsor sa employer or 190kung state-sponsored. Check mo lang po sa steps sa first topic under Skilled Independent section.

Start with visa 189 (best visa), then try visa 190, if not then try other possible visa na pwede sa case nyo.

Permanent residency via skilled migration

The grant of a Skilled Migration visa is based on your particular skills and characteristics measured on a points test. A job offer or employer in Australia is not required.

457 visa holders can remain in Australia while they apply for their Skilled Migration visa and, once granted, the visa will cease.

All Skilled Migration applicants are required to:
obtain a positive skills assessment in an occupation listed on the CSOL
meet basic English requirements
pass a points test (pass mark 60 points).

Skilled Migration applications are made under DIAC’s SkillSelect process, where an applicant lodges an Expression of Interest and awaits an invitation from the Australian Government to lodge an application.

A Skilled Migration independent application is made under subclass 189 or Skilled Migration with a State Government sponsor under subclass 190.
The subclass 189 visa is for skilled workers who are not sponsored by an employer, a state or territory, or a family member.
The subclass 190 visa is for skilled workers who are nominated by a state or territory government.
