    Au_Vic said:

    In 489 relative sponsor, the only restriction would be you have to work/live in the same designated area as the sponsor. For example, if your sponsor is in Victoria then you want to apply ng work sa NSW then potentially may issue dun.

    I quote ko lng po itong statement po for 489 Family Sponsored po you are allowed to work in any of the designated area kahit na different po sa state ng family n nag sponsor sayo. This is clearly stated at the DIBP website po.

    sorry, i got mixed up the 489 SS and 489 relative sponsor. @kitkat17 is correct, if 489 relative sponsor you can live in any designated area as per immigration site below. if 489 SS you must live/work in the state that sponsored you for at least 2 years...

    @Au_Vic tanong ko lang po ulit, required ba na in line sa profession yung 1year na full time work?

    Tsaka pagdating sa paghahanap po ng work diyan tinitingnan ba ng employer kung anong visa type ka?

    @jomar011888 any work will do.. full time work one year yung kailangan mong ma full fill or 2 part-time job pwede din... ang pagkaka alam ko at sa mga nababasa ko ang mga employer Hindi aware sa lahat ng visa type kaya mostly nilalagay nila PR/CItizen pero yung 489 visa pwede din mag apply dun kasi we are allowed to work for 4 years sa AU.

    @jomar011888 it does NOT have to be in line sa profession mo, any work is fine pero shempre dapat legal at legit na work

    yes, employers check visa rights for each applicant but they do not know the details of each visa type. most of them use third party companies to do those visa checks or employers have a log-in account direct to immi to do the validation or they can call immigration to ask. with 489 you can work in Au for 4 yrs, unrestricted hours but some 489 has restrictions on region or location where they are allowed to work. Kc employers will get fined if they employ people w/o valid working rights in australia. So far ung mga familar at common na visa types dito na alam ng employers ay PR, student visa, 457, working holiday, tourist visa.

    Hi, I am currently holding 485 temporary graduate visa. I was on a student visa (graduate of Bachelor of Accounting), may tanong lang po ako sa mga naka-489 dito na ang nominated skill ay Accountant, paano po kayo naka-claim ng Overseas Work Experience? ano po ang requirements at paano po ang procedure? Same din po sa mga naka-claim ng Australian Work Experience (kung meron po dito sa thread). TIA.
