May update po ba kung matangal sa SOL ang ICT BA this July 1, 2015 ?

Samantita · May 2015

@grant512 and J_Oz : hello po. asking your advice on our OZ dream. sa inyo ako nanghingi kasi andami nyo po nalalaman regarding sa pasikot sikot ng application.

me and my husband are planning to apply for:
Hubby : Computer Network and Systems Engineer 263111. work exp >10yrs na
Me: ICT business Analyst 261111 or Systems Analyst 261112. hoping they will open on july 2015. work exp: 2yrs tech support at lextmark R&D, 3yrs software engineer NCR CDC, 5yrs jr. executive but doing BA work in construction company in UAE
And this is our story, we are already in the final stage of getting a student visa (Nov2015 intake, im the main applicant). hubby prefer that i will be the main applicant bec he's not confident of passing the ielts. during the documentation stage and while reading this forum, we found out that i am qualified to apply for skillselect.

please enlighten me which path to take considering that we will be sending our kids back to the phils this june2015.
1. ilang buwan normally bago ma-nominate nga state?
2. ano po kaibahan nga 189 and 190?
3. if we will go for skillselect, normally ilang buwan bago magrant ang visa?

hoping and praying na may makapagbigay ng saguton and much appreciated for any inputs po.

thanks ng marami.

Hi @Samantita

We used Agency to help us for the visa. My question lang po why apply Student visa when you are qualified to apply as skilled immigrant? regards sa cost ng processing I think parehas lang gagastusin nyo or more plus the days na masasayang if you opt to apply for 189 vs Student visa.

If I were you po I will save more funds while waiting for your visa application ( visa 189) and ang maganda pa kasama mo pa family mo while waiting and if granted kasama mo din.

Napakahirap ng di kasama ang anak just like me nasa SG ako and my family are in Manila, That is why I am praying hard na ma-grant kami ng VISA para sa AUS sama-sama kami.

Right now I am saving all the money I can bago ako umuwi pinas and wait for the VISA ( sana magkavisa nga)

To answer your questions:
1. ilang buwan normally bago ma-nominate nga state?
depende po lagi pero sa mga timeline average

2. ano po kaibahan nga 189 and 190?
visa 189 - can stay anywhere in AUS , visa 190 need to stay 2 years sa state na nag sponsor sayo

3. if we will go for skillselect, normally ilang buwan bago magrant ang visa?
skillselect? Is this the NSW way of sponsoring.. If yes then mahirap magsabi po dapat ganito din ang path namin since wala na invitation sa 261111 ICT BA for visa 189 pero we chose to wait sa July 1 nalang para visa 189 kami instead of 190.

I only pray na sana walang magbago requirements sa ICT BA or hindi sya matangal sa SOL..

@grant512 : hi po. very informative ang binigay mong advice and very inspiring then.

agency din po kami and waiting po sa result ng assessment from our agency's marketing staff. ito nlng po ang hinihintay naming sign if we will push through sa visa189/190 or student visa. I am not losing hope po since umpisa pa lang po ito and i know God will provide all we need. I have trust and faith in Him.

thanks po. ill follow this thread po.

@Samantita
HAlos sabay lang po timeline natin kakasubmit lang namin ng EOI pero sa July 1 pa invitation eh so sana mga August mainvite na kami for visa lodging.

May friend po ako student sila magasawa umalis sila last year and 1 year na po sila sa AUS not sure if they apply for visa 189 na. Yung mga anak po nila iniwan nila pinas so hindi nila nakita for 1 year. Nalilito din ako kasi Accounting po yung girl at IT yung guy with experiences na din naman sila since ka batch ko po pero they opted to apply for student visa.

grant512 · July 2015

Tatsie1379 · July 2015

@Tatsie1379
Kelan po kayo nagsubmit ng EOI? 189 or 190? Do you have news bout ICT BA ceiling for this financial year 2015 - 2016?

Tatsie1379 · July 2015

@grant512 Feb 2015 ako nag submit ng EOI. Based sa website, 1536 ung ceiling value for ICT BA.

189 60 pts

grant512 · July 2015

@Tatsie1379 5 months na pala ang sainyo. Puede po hingi ng link ng ceiling ng ICT?
Ang konti neto 1,536 lang huhuhu

Tatsie1379 · July 2015

@grant512 Uu. Nag timing naubusan ng slot :-) Here you go: http://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Skil

Thanks @Tatsie1379 update us pag nainvite ka na.

grant512 · August 2015

Mga ICT BA pasok.. update us...

FlUiD · August 2015

Hi,

My wife applied for a NSW nomination last June 13 and got selected June 17 with her qualification of ICT BA. We received an ITA June 25 and lodged our visa application July 21. We are already done with the uploading and medicals and are just waiting for our CO to contact us.

What I would suggest is you try going the 190 path. It would cost you an additional $300 though. But I think processing of 190 is much faster than that of a 189.

Aww, you shouldn't have deleted your first EOI, kasi sayang yung earlier date of effect mo (07-June-2015)! Sayang kasi yung ipinila mo. The better option would have been to just create a new EOI on top of your old one. But I checked the invitation round last Aug 3, you should have been invited nga. Good luck this coming September!

@appledeuce Thanks.. All the best to us.. Sa mga ICT BA, pa-update po if ever naka-receive na kayo ng invite. Salamat!

guenb · August 2015

I hope anyone can answer this, what's the obvious difference between an ICT Business Analyst & a Systems Analyst? TIA

cavalier18 · August 2015

@guenb hi. For me, the difference would be that the Systems analyst role has a more "technical" work than a Business analyst. Meaning, Systems Analysts tends to look at the code themselves and use that to look for ways to implement the requirements. While Business Analysts focuses more on the functionality and how the requirements are going to be used by the clients. More on use cases, user stories etc. However, there are also a role in between which is called Business Systems Analyst.

Hope this helps.

guenb · August 2015

thank you so much @cavalier18 I'm more of in between, hehe. I guess I'll just wait for ACS' assessment.

Alright. No prob. As long naman as stated sa COEs mo ung job description na hinahanap ok naman na un. Goodluck!

adc · August 2015

@grant512 Hi! I hope you could help me on some questions.

I was assessed as not closely related sa 261111 for BA and got a nomination instead. So try ko ung 190 path since pwede try din heheh and mabilis din maapprove. I just read in this site na required and 2 years stay sa state na nag sponsor.

1. Who decides which state magsponsor sayo? May list ba or idea po kayo? I got nominated to try at 2632***. Di ko alam if swertehin pero never give up lang!
2. Say after 2 years of stay, can I apply anywhere in aus na?

grant512 · August 2015

Hi @adc

1. Who decides which state magsponsor sayo? May list ba or idea po kayo? I got nominated to try at 2632***. Di ko alam if swertehin pero never give up lang!

-> For 261111 You can apply for state sponsorship sa VIC, NSW and SA with total of 55 pts without SS...

2. Say after 2 years of stay, can I apply anywhere in aus na?

-> Yes, you can apply anywhere after 2 years.
