  Hello po!
  Just joined the forum...binabasa ko ksi ung mga recent posts about 190 visa.
  May friend po ksi ako sa Perth (189 visa sya), need p daw ng employer to apply or to be granted a 190 visa. Is that true? Wla po kc ako nbasa dun sa DIBP site n gnun eh.
  Hndi po kc ako pwd sa 189 dhil kulang ang points ko (55 lng) , sa 190 nmn 55 + 5 if nominated ako ng state. I already sent EOI for 190 and 186 (employer sponsored visa) last week. Dapat po b specify ko kung saang state or ok lng b na " any" ung nilagay ko?
  Every advice po will help...thanks in advance..:)

  @sabrina88 may i know your exact itemized points such as your age, education, years of employment...mataas ang IELTS mo bakit dka umabot ng more than 60 points...anyway visa 190 ako..no need for employer pero ung state ang magnonominate sa iyo...check mo kung yung profession mo eh kung saang state in demand para un ang ichoose mo during submission ng EOI...don't worry usually 2 years lang naman ang hinihingi ng state para magstay ka dun to work..tapos pagtapos na ang moral obligation mo sa state na un you are freely to move in on what state do you prefer..ung ibang mga applicant na hindi pinalad (gaya ko sa points for visa 189) eh nagvivisa 190 kami..hope it makes sense..cheers

  @jrgongon
  Hi po! Thanks for the response...
  Age- 43 = 10pts
  IELTS = 15 pts
  Medtech dto sa pinas for over 18 yrs
  Assessed by AIMS as more than 10 yrs work experience = 10 pts
  AIMS ANZSCO 311213 medlab technician and with a bachelor degree = 10pts
  Comparable to Australian standards
  Wla po kc akong points para sa partner kc single mom ako....kya 55 lng points ko + 5 pts if nominated by a state
  Paano po at saan nkikita if in demand yung job ko sa state?
  Pero tinignan ko sa SOL ksma nmn sa list ng in demand jobs yung inapplayan ko...hopefully nga mkapasa ko sa exam pra maging med scientist yung status ko..

  totoo to. problema talaga kasi, pahigpit ng pahigpit dito. within the span of four years na andito ako, parang wala na talaga pag-asa pag banyaga ka. kahit may PR ka dito, hindi sigurado na ma-convert ka to citizen, or ung anak mo, papahirapan din makakuha ng PR. may kilala ako, sampung taon na sila dito PR both parents, pero ung anak, anim na beses inapply, rejected parin. kaya ayun, pa-canada na sila
