General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

ma_belst · January 2017

@batman thank you for your reply. i have some questions..well basically needing guidance or advise.....
i graduated with a degree in industrial engg, 1998. in the earlier years, i worked as either a prodn or qa supervisor. but for the last 5 yrs, i shifted to a career in human resource management.
re skills assessment and points for work experience, im confused on the best thing to do:
whether to work again in a manufacturing set up to match my bachelors degree or to continue with my HR career and apply as such... what do you guys suggest i do to get max points? btw, will be turning 40 very soon...

batman · January 2017

for age up to 45 yo naman pede maka kuha pa ng 15 points.
for employment, yung last 10 years work experience lang ang pede I claim.
I am not familiar with Engineers Australia pag nag paasess ba need currently employed sa field nyo. you have to research about that. kong pede nmn mag pa assess na khit hindi sa field nyo current work . pede mo I cliam yung 5 years bago ka nag work as HR.

@cheng1003 you can't practice your profession in AU unless registered ka as Nurse doon. Kaya bridging ka muna. may thread here about nurses. search mo.

hello guys, newbie here, just like to ask how do i start for my subclass 189 application for oz? any tips or step by step guide please? Thanks!

batman · January 2017

@carlomorato you have to
nominate an occupation
Take English test
have an assessment of your bachelors degree and work experience
then submit ka na ng expression of interest. then wait ka ma invite ng Australia.

@alegnallanes pwedeng di ka makareceive ng ITA kung:
- wala sa SOL o CSOL ang nominated occupation mo
- mas may matataas na points na kapareho mong nominated occupation
- ubos na ang quota for the current financial year
- nasa CSOL ka pero wala kang approved state sponsorship

alegnallanes · January 2017

Ano po occupation niyo??

cheng1003 · January 2017

@batman thanks po.

@Jaehaerold Thanks for the feedback sir, same

Gathering docs for assessments

jaceejoef · January 2017

question po regarding sa BIR 2316 document. ang pirma ng nasa document is digital signature. pwede ba yun? pwede ba yun i-CTC? or notary pa muna dapat? yung pirma ko lang ang "originally written"

@jaceejoef same concern here...

In my case, I just printed the 2316 and signed it (blue pen). then scan again. I guess CO knows that other companies issue online report like 2316. Hindi ko na pina-CTC. This is just my plan, not yet lodged my visa. Balitaan mo ako ah. Thank you

jaceejoef · January 2017

@SAP_Melaka naku medyo matagal pa ko! hehe. mag ACS assessment pa ko then retake ng PTE. nag gather lang ako ng documents for the meantime.

also, napansin ko din na yung may original signature ng HR head namin iba sa digital signature niya so baka magkaproblema ako dun. nag request na ako sa HR ng original signature. sana mag reply agad.

auitdreamer · January 2017

@carlomorato The basic steps to start are in the first page of this topic: http://pinoyau.info/discussion/101/general-skilled-immigration-visa-step-by-step-process/p1

From there you can just post any specific questions here about particular steps or better is meron ding specific topics na pwede mong isearch dito like for different assessing bodies (i.e. EA, ACS, etc.) depending on your occupation and for either IELTS/PTE, whichever English test you'll choose to take to prove your English proficiency.

Hi, ask lang po kung may required na amount or proof of funds for 189. Kung wala, may estimate po ba kung magkano adviseable na pocket money for family of 3. Thanks!

@joysee di kailangan ng proof of fund. kung sydney ka at family of 3 prepare a budget of more or less 2-2.5k per month

jaceejoef · January 2017

question po. nabasa ko kasi to sa previous pages

jc21 said:
Hello guys,

Good day and I have a question po. Nakapag lodge na po ako ng visa, and ni declare ko po ung whole family member ko meaning my parents and siblings, sa dependent non-migrating, ang question po is kelangan din po ba nila magpa medical pa and NBI kahit na non migrating po sila?

Thank you very much!

tweety11 said:
@jc21 bakit mo dineclare? Normally pag single ka kahit wala ka ideclare na dependent. Sabi sa dibp website kailangan ng medical at police clearance ng lahat ng dependents kahit non migrating. Pero kung ako sa case mo, aantayin ko muna CO contact.

batman said:
@jc21 yes kelangan. for future kasi pag gusto mo sila I sponsor under family sponsored visa madali na lng. kong di mo kasi I declare di mo sila pede I sponsor.

anong mangyayari pag di maganda ang result ng isa sa mga dependents? di ba ma-approve ang visa ko?

batman · January 2017

@jaceejoef their concern really is about communicable diseases. kong wala naman kau nun nothing to worry.

depends if your occupation is in the prorata list, then your total score is lower than the current score na iniinvite. or some CSOL occupation pero walang available na state to sponsor.

@Xiaomau82 hello, ask ko lang san ka po nagpa assess nung skills assessment mo? During the skills assessment period, kailangan na ba ng IELTS/PTE? Thank you.

Depends on your nominated occupation.

VETASSESS, ACS, TRA - hindi kelangn ng English test
AITSL, IEA, CPAA - require English test

jaceejoef · January 2017

@batman ah, okay. thank you!

joysee · January 2017

Thank you sa response @engineer20

Question: sa ImmiAccount for item #15/17

Previous countries of residence
Have any of the applicants lived in a country other than the primary applicant's usual country of residence?

Currently, nasa Malaysia ako so ayun ung usual country of residence ko. Then I added another one for our current residence in PH.

Question: shall I only indicate the current residence? Or all of my previous residence? Got confused on the statement "lived in a country other than"

gillianLeoh2017 · January 2017

Sino po dito ang nagwowork o nagwork sa wastewater treatment plant na nagpositive as Chemical engineer sa EA? Thanks! Confused lang ako kung papasa sya as Chemical engineering profession o mas suited sa environmental engineering. Thank you and God bless..

kingmaling · January 2017

Hello again. I have a question with regards to a few items sa paggawa ng EOI..

sa 6/13 na tab:

Does the client meet the Australian study requirements for the Skilled Migration points test? <- sa assessment result ba makikita if na-meet yung requirements??ang nakasulat kasi sa assessment ko is: "assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree"

also i think related naman itong dalawa, sa Education History, under sa Qualification na entry, tama ba na "Bachelor Degree in Science, Business and Technology" ang piliin ko??

Salamat po sa tulong.

Grifter · January 2017

Hi @gillianLeoh2017 as far as i know po, e try nyo check ang description sa anzsco, kung ano po mas relevant sa work nyo un ang gamitin nyo

azan1989 · January 2017

hi po sa lahat..... pasagot naman po sa mga merong idea po sa issue ko.

I'm on my 4th year of employment with my new company just this January 2017. Previously I had worked for 3 years with my Old It Company related lang din po ang work experience ko sa nominated skill ko po.... To make the story short po, gusto ko na po sana mag pa assess ng qualification at work experience ko sa ACS sa nominated skill ko po. I'm planning to apply and submit my EOI probably by the year 2019 pa tamang2x tama po na makaka total 6 years po ako ng Work experience at makapag ipon para sa gastusin sa IELTS, certifications, fees sa application at iba pa.

Hingi po sana ako ng advise dapat po bang mag pa access ako ng maaga sa ACS kahit sa 2019 ko pa planong i pursue ang pag aaply sa nominated skill ko sa 189?

Merun po bang validity once nakuha mo na ang result ng ACS mo?

Naisipan ko lang kasing magpa asses ng maaga kasi napansin ko pong tumataas po ang rate ng assesment habang tumatagal...

Maraming salamat po sa lahat.... GOd Bless po....

batman · January 2017

@kingmaling that refers to studies done in Australia.

batman · January 2017

@azan1989 you can check sa assessing body website mo for the expiration. Sa amin kasi Usually 2 years lng. pero kong naka pag pa assses ka na before tapos nag lapse na ang 2 years pede humingi ng renewal ng assessment considering your are still working on the same company and same job. this is based on my assessing body ha CPAA.
