Skilled - Nominated or Sponsored (Provisional) (subclass 489) visa

jvframos · July 2015

@koykoy in this case, the secondary applicants can apply for the PR visa kung mas nauna sila makacomply sa confitions of 489 visa.

Hi po, I am in the process of preparing my requirements to apply for the 489 visa. Ask ko lang yung tungkol dun sa Dependents. Ano po ba ibig sabihin ng "Dependent"? Sila ba yung mga family member na umaasa sa iyo financially?

Meron kasing question sa application form about "Non-migrating dependents" Hindi ako sure kung ilalagay ko yung parents ko dun pero hindi naman sila financially dependent sa akin.

Thanks.

Nakikita ko po sa timeline ninyo na mas later pa kayo nag upload ng ibang documents such as NBI clearance. So ibig sabihin po ba pwede na ako mag lodge ng visa kahit hindi pa kumpleto ang mga documents ko???? Ang iniisip ko kasi, dapat kumpleto na lahat ng documents saka pa lang ako mag lodge ng visa meaning submit na yung application at mag babayad na ng fee

@FrenchMilk no need to include them as dependent kung ganyan naman ang case...if you have dependents 25 years and below, i suggest isama mo na sila para may kasama ka dito :-) though pwede naman subsequent entry later

fgs · July 2015

@FrenchMilk you can lodge your visa application kahit di pa complete ang docs but make sure na pag hiningi na ni CO you can provide it within 28 days kasi if not, the decision will be based only on the docs provided. You can also immediately arrange your medicals para maupload din agad ng clinic

FrenchMilk · July 2015

thanks po sa reply @fgs. one more question, normally hindi na ba hihingi ang CO ng proof/evidence of funds? thanks

thanks po sa reply @fgs. one more question, normally hindi na ba hihingi ang CO ng proof/evidence of funds? thanks

nope in my case, usually ang state yan hihingi kung needed pero pag approved na sponsorship mo most likely di na ka na hihingan

thanks sa reply @fgs

@fgs Ask ko lang.. Yung cousin ko nag apply ng visitor visa ng parents nya multiple yun na grant at nasa Melbourne ngayon pag 2nd time na nila yearly ang stay dun. Pwede pa ba sya mag sponsor like sa 489 for his siblings or kaya sa akin as his first cousin? Paano ba yung visa 489? Undertakings lang ba ang need nya fill up o titingnan pa ba yung capacity nya to sponsor? Salamat.

fgs · July 2015

@Anci pwede ka nya sponsoran as skilled migrant under 489 Family sponsored visa...instead na state ang mag sponsor sayo pwede yong family member na nasa australia pero dapat nasa designated area sya( whole victoria kasama) at dapat ang skill mo nasa SOL..on this type of visa, limited lang iniinvite.parang 20 per month lang. Unlike a state sponsored, once approved yong sponsorship mo, automatic ka iinvite. Skilled migrant pa rin ito na visa at dadaan ka sa process like skills assessment, english test etc at dapat mameet mo minimum score of 60. Pag sponsored ka ng state or family member, may additional 10 points...take note that 489 visa is a provisional visa, di pa sya PR. You can apply for PR after 2 years provided you stayed in designated area and worked at least 1 year fulltime

fgs · July 2015

@Anci undertakings lang usually ang pipirmahan nya that he will support you for 2 years

Anci · July 2015

@fgs Thank you so much!

FrenchMilk · July 2015

Hi guys, still preparing my documents to be able to lodge the visa application. I still have a few questions:

1) Need pa ba i-notarize yung result ng skills assessment and english proficiency exams?
2) Regarding sa evidence ng skilled employment, need ko pa ba mag provide ng evidence para dun sa work experience ko na hindi na credit sa assessment result?
3) Need pa ba i-notarize yung scanned photo?

Thanks po sa makakasagot.

fgs · July 2015

@FrenchMilk in my case, 1. no need to notarize skills assessment and english test 2. Since past 10 years ang employment experience na hinihingi, i just provided them all evidence, madali lang sa akin kasi 1 company lang, different positions lang and nakadetalye na rin sa skills assessment ko. 3. No need to notarize scanned photo(colored with name written below the pic)

FrenchMilk · July 2015

thank you so much for your reply @fgs. your response is very helpful

I have virgin mobile and vodafone sim card kya lang no signal, any idea po? need pa po ba to iroam? or d tlga to mgwwork sa pinas? thanks in advance!

FrenchMilk · July 2015

@fgs dun sa application form for 489 visa sub class, ilalagay ko rin dun yung work experience ko na hindi na credit sa skills assessment di ba? Kasi nakalagay dun kahit pala yung mga hindi related sa nominated occupation eh dapat i mention din

Pero dun sa question na "Duration of overseas employment" Ang ilalagay ko dito is yung na credit lang sa skills assessment di ba? Kasi dito naka base yung points claim ko for work experience.

fgs · July 2015

@FrenchMilk yes, only the number of years na employed ka in your nominated occupation..pero don sa employment history, oast 10 years includiped kahit hindi related kasi may question man na related sa nominated occupation or not

FrenchMilk · July 2015

thanks sa reply @fgs

pero paano kung related sa nominated occupation pero dineduct yun experience sa skills assessment, kasama pa rin ba sa count yung dineduct sa assessment?

fgs · July 2015

@FrenchMilk isama mo pa rin pero ihiwalay mo lang at lagyan mo ng not relevant...try din ask sa iba kasi in my case walang deduction

FrenchMilk · July 2015

Thanks @fgs

Yung question ba na does applicant have any other current passport, it only applies if you have something like dual citizenship kaya possible na dalawa ang passport mo?

Hindi ba ito nag pertain sa expired passports?

fgs · July 2015

@FrenchMilk this is a current passport which pertains to dual citizens...i think my other question pertaining an expired passport used to enter australia...kung may expired passport ka na hindi mo naman ginamit to enter australia before, NO lang sagot mo

FrenchMilk · July 2015

thanks @fgs

Anci · August 2015

Hi! ask ko lang po may limit ba ang pag sponsor ng kung citizen na yung sponsor sa AU? Like pwede ba sabay nya sponsor ang brother nya at first cousin nya? Then yung wife nya yung kapatid naman nya. Wala kase ako nabasa sa limit. At napansin ko undertakings lang po fill up nya.

fgs · August 2015

@Anci alam ko wala pero eevaluate din nila capacity to support

Anci · August 2015

@fgs thanks:)

Hi everyone. I just saw this forum last night and very glad to receive acceptance this morning.

Magiinquire lang po kasi I am planning to apply for 190 state sponsored sa WA. HR Manager po ang occupation ko under WASOL schedule 2.

Ang pagkakaintindi ko sa process:
1. Lodge EOI
2. If they see me as qualified, papadalhan nila ako ng invitation to apply for state nomination
3. Then they will evaluate and if I satisfy all requirements, papadalhan ako ng invitation to lodge visa apllication.

Yub nga lang I read from their website na kailangan ng at least 12months contract of employment with an employer based sa nominated occupation.

Pano po ito? Possible po ba na maghanap at mabigyan ng job offer kahit wala pang visa? May nakagawa na po ba nito? Please advise kung tama po ang pagkakaintindi ko.

Maraming salamat!
