ask ko na din kung paano nagkakaroon ng state nomination?
Hehehe, sana nga hindi matagalan kasi worry ko na ang age ko. si hubby kasi 35 na kaya ako na ang naging main applicant.

may mga nagragrant na dito na mabilis sa visa 190. although there is a risk na pwede ka din hindi manominate ng state kung wala yung needed skill mo sa state nila. may additional step kasi siya saka additional bayad kung papanominate sa state. saka may right timing dapat. for example, July nagoopen ang state nomination sa South Australia for this certain skill.
ang path of least resistance for me would be visa 189. lahat kasi na idedeclare mo sa visa application depende sa work experience at studies mo. saka hindi ka nakatali sa state na yun for 2 years pag visa 189. you can work in any state sa visa 189.
antay natin ang sagot ng iba. they may have a different view than mine

so i guess malabo ako sa 189 visa if wala sa SOL yung occupation ko.
im working in a bank industry kasi for almost 8 years na. 2 of my previous company is au based bank kasi wala naman ang banking sa SOL.
wala rin naman sa CSOL pero since im already a manager may nakita ako sa CSOL about managerial position. pwede kaya yun?

Since medyo alanganin un timing, if ever makakuha ng grant, looks like the better plan is to fly to Australia by next January or so. I'm going abit ahead of myself, pero if December ma grant, my impression is baka mahirap maghanap ng work during the holidays? Is there a thread where we have information when is the worst/best time to look for a job in IT (Java developer here)? Anything else that we should consider for our future plans?
Given this timeline, I'm also stuck still thinking about waiting on the CO before doing the medical / police clearance or front-loading...
