Oh! NSW pala. Good decision to explore 489 rather than waiting for 189 or 190 in NSW kc mejo malabo lalo na ma-invite kau agad kung di mataas ung points nyo kc ang dami nag-apply sa NSW for SS.

Don't worry too much about getting your PR after 2 yrs kc kung may changes naman most likely yung fees lang or yung time of processing. Kaya you have to be in oz the soonest possible time

@Au_Vic sana nga po ma invite na this time. Yung show money nalang proproblemahin namin.

dutchmilk · September 2017

@Au_Vic what if po mag change ang number of yrs in applying for PR then 4 yrs lng yung sa 489 to stay and work in AU? Will we gonna be affected with the change if nasa AU na kami nun?

@SophieMaddie38 hello po ulit. regarding sa NBI clearance po, need pa bah ipa notaryo? at sa pinas dapat ipa notaryo dba? and with the bank statements sa pinas, kailangan bah na ang acct name under sa main applicant? coz we have 2 bank accts sa pinas. one is a joint acct and yung isa under my name only.

@dutchmilk No need na ipa-notarize ang NBI clearance. Better na i-submit nyo yung joint account dahil proof na din yan ng relationship nyo. Pero, saan nyo po gamitin yung bank account? Sa proof of financial capacity po ba?

Nagpa-nominate din po ako sa SA dati pero hindi naman po ako hinanapan ng bank statement. Anyways, mas mabuti na din po na ready kayo just in case na hanapin.

About sa medical test, since nasa SG yung husband nyo pwede naman din sya doon magpa-medical. At kayo naman ay dyan sa Pinas.

Ganyan po ginawa namin. Ako ay dito sa Riyadh nagpa-medical at sa Pinas naman yung family ko.

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 opo kc nakasaad kc dun sa SA application form regarding financial declaration. Need po bah talaga ng show money upon lodging the visa? Kc medjo malaki din ang required nila eh.

Regarding po sa mga supporting docs as proof of our relationship, ano pa bah ang kailangan aside from marriage cert, joint bank accts?

Btw po, ano po yung visa nyo? Kc samin 489 eh.

egroj1002 · September 2017

@dutchmilk Hindi ako hinanapan ng proof of financial capacity. Nag-mention lang po ako ng kung magkano ang amount. Although, wala pa talaga ako ganun kalaking amount...kasi nag estimate lang ako ng makukuha ko sa company ko pag nag-resign ako. Pero, better na din po na mag-ready kayo just in case na humingi sila.

About sa supporting docs as proof of relationship, nag-submit din ako ng titulo ng lupa namin na nandon yung names namin ng wife ko. Kung may billing din kayo na nakalagay yung names nyo ng husband nyo, pwede din po iyon.

Nag-submit din nga po ako ng family pictures namin eh...hahaha...although, I am not sure kung nakatulong...

Luckily & fortunately, na-direct grant po kami in 14 days after mag-lodge ng visa application.

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 wow! Congrats po. 189 po bah visa nyo?

Sana kami din di na hingan ng financial proof kc di pa umaabot savings namin sa required nila na at least aud20,000 cash.

egroj1002 · September 2017

@dutchmilk 190 po visa namin...nominated ng SA

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 ah kaya nga cguro di kayo hiningan ng proof kc 190 kayo. tama po bah?

egroj1002 · September 2017

@dutchmilk 190 at 489 po ay parehong state nominated...yon po yung sometimes na hinahanapan ng show money.

ang 189 po ang walang show money

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 ah ganun po bah. sana pareho kami sa inyo na di na hiningan pa ng proof. same lng bah na SA form ang sinubmit natin?

egroj1002 · September 2017

@dutchmilk opo same lang po...kasi nag submit din ako ng 489...pareho akong naka receive ng invitation...190 po ang pinili ko dahil permanent visa

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 ic. ano po yung nominated occupation nyo po? kc c hubby initially submitted an EOI sa NsW for 190 but til now wala pang Invite so his agent suggested 489 sa SA. pwede din kaya mag submit ng EOI for 190? kaso 60pts lng cya without SS pts. and ICT kc nominated occupation nya. naka pro rata

egroj1002 · September 2017

telecom engr po ako...ako nga po 60pts lng including na yung 190 nomination

pero buti na lang po ay nasubmit ko nung june28 at na-invite ako ng june30

dami po nabago sa migration nung july 1 kaya inabutan na din kayo ng high pts na requirement

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 dati pa kc nag pro rata ang 2613. actually last march pa kami ng lodge ng EOI for 190

egroj1002 · September 2017

@dutchmilk w8 nyo na lang po..darating din yon...pray lang...good luck po sa inyo

dutchmilk · September 2017

@egroj1002 sana nga po. salamat at goodluck sa BM nyo.

show money? usually if SA SS, financial declaration lang about your financial status. very seldom ung instance na humingi sila ng evidence but they can ask for proof if they want to. so far, wala pa akong na-encounter dito sa forum na hiningan ng actual evidence of funds.

dutchmilk · September 2017

@Au_Vic financial declaration meaning yung sa form lng iindicate and hindi na cla mag hihingi ng bank statements as proof?

don't think too much about the PR. matagal pa yun. for now, focus on getting your 489, moving to oz and fulfilling the 489 conditions na 2yr work live/1yr work.

To give you an idea, 489 to 887 conditions and processes for the past 5 years have not changed as far as I know.

dutchmilk · September 2017

@Au_Vic ah

sabi ko nga sa sarili ko don't overthink. wala pa ngang invite.

yes, financial declaration ung sa form. as what i have said, most of the time they dont ask for proof of funds but they may so to be on the safe side just prepare something in case na humingi sila ng evidence :-)

its ok naman na maisip mo ung about sa PR kc part yun ng overall process pero I can say that you are on the right track. the fact na nagdecide ka na iexplore ang 489 rather than waiting to get invited sa 189 or 190, I can say that's a good move.

Wit the current situation of migration in Australia, applicants should be strategic and need to be more open-minded in terms of the avenue to be here.

I have been telling to people here sa forum na wag maxado choosy especially with location or where they want to stay etc. Yeah i do understand that most people want to stay in big cities like Sydney or Melbs but reality bites, its not easy to migrate to oz anymore like ages ago.

Marami kc dito sa forum ang fussy na kesho ayaw sa smaller states, regional area, etc, anyway, kanya-kanya naman ng choice. Those people are willing to wait kahit abutin pa sila ng matagal pero sayang kasi yung time at sa kaka-antay pabago ng pabago ang immigration rules at pahirap ng pahirap at mas nagiging less ung chance na makapunta dito. I have seen it all how immigration has changed the rules.

There is nothing wrong with 489, pare-parehas tayo ng food na kakainin, same grocery store tayo mamimili at hangin na lalanghapin natin same at lalo na iisang country lang tayo... Australia regardless kung adelaide ka, tassie, brissy, the gong, etc. :-)

dutchmilk · September 2017

@Au_Vic ah ok po. thanks for the info. sana magdilang anghel ka sana na they wont ask any proof from us if ever.

spyware · September 2017

@dutchmilk Hi! Worry ko din yang proof of funds kung hihingin from us (touc wood). Pero as per dito sa forum, wala pa naman daw naka experience na hiningan. BUT just incase lang, dapat u are ready to provide them. Pray nalang tayo na wag na sana clang humingi pa

Positve lang!

dutchmilk · September 2017

@spyware hi po! sana nga di na cla hihingi ng proof kc aud21,000 (cash) yung dineclare ni hubby sa form. :-/

waiting for invite din po kayo? 190 or 489?
