    Hi guys! Gusto ko lang magtanong about some things. Gagraduate ako ng BS ECE sa UST sa June e. Suntok ba sa buwan kung mag apply ako ng 189 visa sa Queensland? Wala kasi yung ECE sa SOL nila e :(

    1. Sagad kong points na makukuha is 60 (Age-25, Education-15, IELTS- 20 sana!)
    2. No work experience
    3. May mga relatives ako na nagbabalak lumipat sa queensland e. Currently nasa perth sila kaya bigla akong napa research sa QLD :( mas madali sana ako makakapasok ng perth thru relative sponsorship e, saka nandun yung nominated occupation ko

    P.S. Kung relative sponsored ba ako at wala sa SOL ang occupation ko no chance na? :( thanks guys a

    @MLBS nakikita ko lang na cons sa balak mo ay kailangan mo galingan sa english test at wala ka pang professional experience na pwedeng magamit sa pagaapply ng work sa AU na yung mga experienced na ay usually hinahanapan pa ng local experience.

    anyways, goodluck!

    @Santi sana nga pero need pa tapusin ng daughter ko un treatment nya for primary complex e so most likely matagalan pa grant, pero happy na din ako at least gumagalaw, saka sana e hingin na lahat ni CO ang klngan nya para pag mag-clear un sa daughter ko e grant na agad kasunod :) btw, ang galing naman ng timeline mo, parang DG kahit may CO contact, panalo hehehe
