Skilled - Nominated or Sponsored (Provisional) (subclass 489) visa

iamvee · October 2017

@MissOZdreamer hi, kelan ka nag apply ng residence visa mo? plan ko sana mag apply ng Tourist visa by end November, just in case, wala pa talaga result yung 489.

MissOZdreamer · October 2017

@iamvee hello. Nag lodge ako nung sep 28 lang. Ikaw ba? Ako din mga end of nov or first week of dec plan ko apply ng tourist visa. Plan ko mag new year sa oz

though unemployed ako now. Pag nag apply ako ng tourist visa ok lang naman na wala ako maprovide na COE no? The usual docs lang mapoprovide ko. Twice na ko nagrant ng tourist visa sa oz and ive been there few times. Hoping magrant ako tourist visa kahit unemployed. Pero syempre mas hoping ako na ma approve ang visa 489

@rayortinez

yep, within the last 10 yrs lang na work experience lang ang valid.

You can get invited for 489 kahit 60 points lang. it depends sa nominated occupation I think. May certain occupations na capped kc sobrang dami ng nsa queue like accountants, IT, electronics engineer, etc. wherein walang maiinvite na 489 kapag na-exhaust na ng 189 ung places.

If yung occupation mo ay wala dun sa capped list of occupations you have a chance to get invited for 489 with 60 points kc konti ang applicants at immigration has allocated certain number of places per occupation not just in total.

Example, if you submit an EOI for social worker as your nominated occupation, most likely you will get invited even you only have 60 points for 489 kc konti lang ang applicants ng occupation na yun. If accountant ung occupation, you will not get an invite with 60 points either 189 or 489 kc sangkatutak ang applicants na may mataas na score.

Below is the latest skill select EOI report/score:

https://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/20-september-2017-round-results.aspx

For 489, someone got invited with 60 points and that person submitted his/her EOI on 19-September-2017.

If you are more comfortable to use a migration agent go for it.

@MissOZdreamer I think ok lang as long may maprovide ka na Evidence of Funds.. yea plan ko rin wait muna since may time pa naman..

29 Aug ako nag lodge at frontloaded all Docs so hoping na sana tuloy-tuloy yung assessment and decision

MissOZdreamer · October 2017

Hello everyone, I just lodge my 489 FS last 4 of Oct and Immediately got my Bridging Visa A which will take effect on 22 of Dec. Medyo sad ng konti kasi sinagad ko talaga ung waiting time for 189 kaso pinaasa lang ako beshy.. I lodge my EOI last August 7 2017, Then next day got my invite for 489 FS. So nag wait pa ko ng nearly 60 days bago ako nag apply for my 489.

Anyway going back sa thread for everyone asking po sa messaging me. 489 Family sponsored po means you can go to any state or territory as long as it is a designated area:

Designated Areas
All Post codes Everywhere in the Territory
ACT
NT
SA
TA
VIC
WA

except sa NSW
Everywhere except Sydney, Newcastle, and Wollongong
Postcodes- 2311 to 2312, 2328 to 2333, 2336 to 2490, 2535 to 2551, 2575 to 2739, 2787 to 2898

except QLD
Everywhere except the greater Brisbane area
4019 to 4028, 4037 to 4050, 4079 to 4100, 4114, 4118, 4124 to 4150, 4158 to 4168, 4180 to 4899

so madami po opportunity to live and work while under 489. except sa NSW and QLD pili lng ang postcodes. pero andyan ang VIC and WA

It also means that you don’t need to be on he same state sa family n nag sponsor sayo.

Good luck satin lahat!

@kitkat17 wow ang bilis po ng invite nyo sa 489! May I ask your occupation and points breakdown? Nag apply din ako ng 489 FS sa QLD pero pro rata kasi occupation ko e haha thanks

kitkat17 · October 2017

@MLBS

Registered Nurse 70 points. Non pro rata po ako. Snwerte lng dn pero ang inaantay ko tlga nun 189 kc para PR na agad pero sabi nga ung plan natin sometimes hindi talaga nasusunod k may mas mgnda plan si god. Hehe best of luck po.

rjb_08 · October 2017

Hi guys! Ask lang po ng question - as subclass 489, ano po ba ang medical insurance preference nyo? Yung covered sana pati ang pregnancy para in case mag deliver ang wife sa AU ay covered? And how much monthly? Hopefully someone can share their advice. Thank you

Hello and happy new year to all. Pag naka 489 state nomination visa po ba, ano po requirement ng medical insurance na dapat subscribe?

jomar011888 · January 2018

Happy new year po sa lahat sana bumuhos ulit ang ITA ngayon at mainvite ulit ako under 489(Fam) for 2nd time. Mas matagal na ako nagaantay ngaun compare last year na 2weeks lang duration tapos invite kaagad. Nakakapressure oala siya hahaha sayang at wala lang ako enough funds to lodge for this visa ngaun palang ako nakabuo

Kapit lang mga bes sa mga nagaantay ng ITA

batman · January 2018

@jomar011888 bakit second time. na invite ka na dati di mo ka lang naka lodge? sang state?

Au_Vic · January 2018

@jomar011888 sayang ung ITA mo. ung recent ITA for 489 family sponsored nsa 70 to 80 points na at 5 invites lang per round.

jomar011888 · January 2018

@batman uu nga po eh nagexpired nung dec 3 sa victoria po ung 489 ko under relative sponsorship sayang po dahil 2weeks lang ung ITA from date of eoi lodging.

Nakulangan lang po ako ng funds for the visa fee pero now ready na lahat in case may dumating ulit na letter.

Di naman ako madaling madali kasi currently working naman ako dito sa middle east

jomar011888 · January 2018

@Au_Vic kaya nga po eh nanghinayang din po ako inisip ko na lang ndi pa right time para di ako mafrustrate pero now ready na lahat ng docu ko with the visa funds patiently waiting na lang. Target ko naman makapunta dun mid of this year po.

jomar011888 · January 2018

@Au_Vic sana ung next round bumaba ng 65 para magkachance po ulit

Kdungo · January 2018

Question po
Pwede po ba asawa and magsponsor para sa 489 or dapat ibang visa?
Thanks

Au_Vic · January 2018

@Kdungo what do you mean? sinu ang naka 489 at sinu ang gusto sponsoran ng 489?

arishiel · January 2018

Hi all, may tanong po ako.
pede po ba kahit hindi maka-IE ung dependent? nasa pinas kasi ung baby ko kaya medyo hassle lang kung need talaga ng mag-IE bago maexpire ang IE visa niya. magkakaroon kaya ng prob in the future? tia
