    @marjames men, sobrang laking tulong ng mga posts mo. salamat. ako naman magtatanong sana masagot din hehe.
    Granted na 457 ko(salamat sa Diyos). At nagproprocess na lang ako ng OEC sa POEA.
    Ang tanong ko ay tungkol sa POLO verification ng employment contract. Sa Melbourne kasi yung employer ko at nasa Canberra naman ang POLO-AU.
    1. Pwede bang through online ang submission ng mga documents at payment?
    2. Kung pwede yung online submission at payment, online din ba ibibigay ng POLO-AU yung verfied Contract?

    Maraming salamat sa lahat. Ikukuwento ko rin in the future kung pano mga process na pinagdaanan ko para makatulong din. Tapusin ko lang muna itong POEA na requirements(mas nakaka-stress itong stage na ito)

    Good News sa lahat na nag hihitay para sa OEC, pwd niyo na poh asikasohin nag personal sa poea, Basta kumpleto poh tayo sa documento na hinihigi nila sa step 2, kung kumpleto poh isang araw lng poh ang processo! Basta solid documents poh ang ipamukha na lng natin sa kanila. 2hr poh nasa iyo na poh ang walang kakuwentang kwentang papel nag kalukohan nag ahinsya nag gobyerno natin. Wag poh natin kalimutan ang pag-ibig poh at philhealth poh ah, at sa pagtanda natin laging tandaan nakatuwang poh ang sss sa atin!

    Hi Guys, need advise please.

    May employer na ko na mag sponsor sa ken (with my husband and 1 y/o son) sa Oz. Kaso lang with the recent change sa 457, nasa STSOL ung skill ko, so no chance for PR after. Sa Brisbane nga pla kami. Wala din ang skill ko sa QSOL, at di din pwede sa 189.

    Ang husband ko naman is running their family business here in PH, undergrad ng COE. Pero marami siyang skills (car/computer technician) kaso kulang siya sa qualification. If mag school siya (2 years?), pwede ba siya ang magapply ng PR for us since pasok sa MTSSL ang skill nya?

    Possible kaya na mag work out tong plan na to? Any thoughts? :)

    Thank you sa sasagot!

    @marjames No worries mate :D haha..

    Andito na ako sa Melbourne. So ganito yung sitwasyon ko bago ako nakarating dito.
    1. April 21 - na grant yung visa 457 ko - kelangan ko makapunta by May 8 sa employer ko para mag start ng work.
    2. April 26 - nakupleto ko lahat ng requirements ng POEA para sa OEC, EXCEPT sa verified contract galing sa POLO-Canberra. Sabi ni ate na taga POEA yung verified contract na lang kulang ko. At granting na makuha ko in 1 week yung verified contract, wala pa rin kasiguraduhang ma-issuhan ako ng OEC dahil suspended daw pag issue ng OEC nung time na yun. So no choice ako, kundi magpunta sa ibang lugar para mag exit to AU.
    Around this time nagbook ako ng roundtrip ticket to SG with CEBUpac, then 1 way ticket from SG to Melbourne sa Jetstar.

    3. May 4 - byahe to SG - nagpormang turista talaga ako haha - no questions asked sa immig :D
    4. May 6 - SG to Melbourne via Jetstar - no quesitons ask sa SG immig
    5. May 7 - Arrived at Melbourne airport - tinignan lang passport at grant letter ng Visa ko then oks na.

    NGAYON may mga tanong ako.

    1. Saan magsusubmit ng papers para maging documented na OFW?
    2. Anong mga documents kelangan isubmit?
    3. Pwede bang online lang or via snail mail?

    Salamat.

    Thank you sa sasagot!

    PR is points test system. So considering na pumasok nga sya sa school and gained the certification/bachelors degree or what not, it all boils down to the points. Pwede kung pwede siya magapply ng PR however, you should consider yung categories sa system. I.e Overseas work experience, Australian experience are some of the major categories that generates huge points.

    All in all, its definitely possible pero there are some things to consider din.

    Deferred medical result! Pls help...Hi sa lahat na nandito sa site na to. Meron sana akong itatanong kung naka-experience kayo na na-deferred ang health examination ng anak nyo. Under 457 ang visa application ko at sinabay ko na si Misis at dalawang anak ko. Ako, si misis at ang panganay ko OK naman ang result ng medical namin pero ang bunso ko nag positive sa Tuberculid Skin Test. Nag-advise ang doctor na undergo siya ng 6 months treatment. Naka-lodge na ang visa namin sa migration agent. Pati ba ako ma-hold at hihintayin na matapos ang treatment sa anak ko o pwede ako lang muna ang mauna sa Australia at susunod nalang sila pag matapos na ang treament ng anak ko. Please paki-share naman kung meron kayong experience na katulad sa case ko. Maraming Salamat sa inyong lahat at God bless! -

    @Cecil Lito sa case namin ng partner ko, may existing condition siya and nag require ng further tests si doctor so nadelay yung upload ng medical results niya, though hindi naman umabot ng 6months.. pero nakuha ko naman yung visa ko, since ako yung primary at dependent ko siya.

    @ohzie ok thanks. Regarding pala sa OEC eto din isa sa problema ko ngayon. Delay pa tong grant sa 457 visa tapos may OEC pa na ipa-process. Tinawagan ko kasi POEA kung pwede ba mag-process nalang ako in advance habang wala pang visa ang sabi di daw pwede. Sa experience mo madali lang ba kumuha ng OEC? How long is the processing time? Please shed me some light. Thanks at God bless sau.

    @switpotato hello, i reckon there has been a lot of changes since I processed my OEC last year. last year, nakuha ko agad yung oec ko, inabot ako ng 2days including seminar kasi kulang ako ng isang requirement, pero kung complete requirement, one day will do, basta maaga ka.

    sa case ngayon, based sa mga nababasa ko, may POLO ng involved and I don't know much about that since di ako dumaan sa POLO.

    for advance processing ng OEC, they won't allow you, kasi kelangan nila ng visa grant mo before you can apply for OEC, hence you must wait for your visa decision. they might think na as long as wala si visa may chance na madecline yung visa mo kaya di ka pwede magprocess ng OEC.

    anyway, visa grant nalang ba hinihintay mo or pati yung nomination?

    Sharing my experience in obtaining the OEC below:

    - Upon receipt of the visa grant, I called POLO Canberra and checked the requirements (visit this page for more details - https://www.philembassy.org.au/18-announcement/announcement/142-oec-issuance-at-polo-canberra)
    - I sent all the required documents in pdf format via email to POLO Canberra ([email protected])
    - I transferred the payment via BPI wire transfer (about AUD 280) and sent the copy of the money transfer confirmation form
    - I received the email from POLO Canberra with the attached signed and stamped documents
    - The original forms are sent via courier which i received after 3-5 days
    - I waited for the original docs and went to POEA to submit the requirements for OEC
    - When I got the confirmation on the approval from Sec Bello, I went to POEA to complete the PDOS and paid the processing fee for OEC (more than PHP6,000)
    - I requested for a certified true copy of the OEC for my dependents so that they can use it when they leave the country

    Hope this helps.
