Just asking for some help or advices, my fiance and I are planning na magmigrate sa Australia, my sister and her family ay PR na and currently in Melbourne, my brother and his family namin waiting nalang umalis din this year.
I am a nurse, and alam ko ang option ko ay magbridging program, pero ung fiance ko IT sya, and I'm thinking pwede sya ung magpply sa Australia, and baka pwde magpakasal muna kami before magapply para pwede nya din ako apply as PR.
May same scenarion ba dito? Or do you have any advices?
Thanks

Question po. Nag-start pa lang ako ng journey ko to apply for Skilled Independent Visa. I have 2 kids pero plan ko ako muna mag-apply since maghahanap pa naman ako ng work pagdating don if ever ma-qualify ako.
Done na ako sa IELTS and passing marks naman nakuha ko. So next step ko is assessment for Engineers Australia. BS IE graduate ako. Please advise best steps. May nakita rin akong "fast track" option. Baka pwede ka magbigay ng tips. Thank you.

Pero all in all wala namang epekto yan sa application mo pwera lang sa expenses medyo malaki din babayaran mo sa visa fee kasi marami din anak mo. Basta lang meron ka lahat evidences sa claim mo sa during eoi wala namang problema sa visa grant ^^
