batman · February 2018

@Krisian tick mo lng 190. kasi process ni NSW pipili sila from the EOI na na lodge sa DIBP tsaka sila iinvite depending on your points

Question po kung kami ni hubby mag migrate pero ako main applicant need nya din po ba mag take ng english test nsa abroad kasi xa now eh and anu po ba iba pang need if may ksama po ung spouse sa application salamat po

batman · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond kong mag claim ka ng partners skill points, which needs assessment too, and assessment dapat may English test, then yes.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@batman tama po ba pagkakaintindi ko, so kung dependent ko lang po sya, no need n po. Pero if ever na nsa Visa application stage na po, may extrang bayad pa din po ba xa or wala na po? Salamat po sa info pra po alam n nmin magkanu po iipunin nmin.

batman · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond may bayad ang dpendents pag lodge na ng visa application.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@batman salamat sa information.

@toAustraliaandbeyond even as dependent may requirement na proof of functional english.

https://www.aussian.com/getting-evidence-functional-english/

How To Prove Your Functional English?
DIBP requires you to furnish either of the two documents as a proof of functional English competency for your partner

Average IELTS score of 4.5 /TOEFL iBT minimum score of 32/ PTE Academic score of 30/ Cambridge English Advanced test(CAE) minimum score of 147
Letter from institution or university stating that you have completed the full-time degree, diploma or trade certificate and all instructions were in English
If you don’t provide either of this, you have to pay additional amount, presently it comes to around $4885. Since I wanted to save time and money, I didn’t want to go through IELTS route for my wife. So the only option was to contact her university and get the functional English letter.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@cucci i see.. Is this applicable only during the visa processing? How about during the skill assesment? Hubby is currently overseas sea-based pa so impossible makapagtake xa ng exams. If sa CPAA plang need n nito then I guess I have to put my application on hold.

cucci · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond Sorry am not versed with the skills assessment process sa ibang profession... however sa ANMAC di man kinonsider ang partner/dependent.

AFAIK, yung functional english requirement is for the visa if main applicant is not claiming additional points for partner skills. Pero kung mag-claim parang competent na or higher ang requirement.

chococrinkle · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond. If you mean for YOUR skills assessment purposes, you want ti know if need ng husband nyo mag English test, then its not needed. You can proceed with your skills assessment. However, during visa application you need to provide proof that your husband has functional English. He may not take the English test if he can provide Certificate of English as Medium of Instruction. You may ask that from his college or university. Also, if ever you will claim partner skills points (if his occupation is of the same list as yours), then he needs to take English test and skills assessment. Hope that helps.

RheaMARN1171933 · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond applicants from countries with English as not the first language are required to demonstrate English skills

cucci · February 2018

@RheaMARN1171933 hi Maam Rhea... can you expound a bit on " Your partner’s nominated skilled occupation must be on the same skilled occupations list as your nominated skilled occupation."

Been trying to understand what it means... salamat po ng marami.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@RheaMARN1171933 @chococrinkle @cucci thank you for the replies. Mejo mas clear na sa akin. Another question sorry and dami lubusin ko na ung payment b ng $3670 aud ba un sa pag submit plang ba un ng visa or once n magrant? Thank you.

chococrinkle · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond. You will pay once you lodge your visa. Pls note if you include your partner/dependents there will be additional fee. You may check with the dibp website for the fees.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@chococrinkle dapat ba pag nag lodge ako ng visa application ksama na ung proof of functional english ni hubby? Or pdeng to follow.. Mejo matagal pa kasi uwi nya(Oct) so mtagal p bgo xa makapag take ng exam. Mukhang d kami mkakakuha sa school nya eh ng proof ng functional englishkasi 1 sem lng xa dun nag ofw n xa.

chococrinkle · February 2018

@toAustraliaandbeyond. Well you can lodge the visa then to follow uploading of documents. However if your docs are not complete you will have CO contact asking for lacking docs, so better na complete na. Your husband also needs to undergo medical exam. Matagal pa ba sya mkakauwi?

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@chococrinkle yes.. October pa this year ang pinakamaaga nyang uwi. Ang medical pob nmin both is dapat before submission of Visa? Sorry sobrang wala akong idea dami ko tuloy tanung.

toAustraliaandbeyond · February 2018

@chococrinkle thank yoy pla sa reply nabasa ko na sa site na ang medical pla is preferred nila before the visa application. Ty

Hello po. May nakakaalam po ba if possible makahingi ng copies ng ITR sa BIR? wala po kasi akong copy ng payslips and all I have is SSS stat and COE for a job na hindi ako nagclaim ng points for.

Tapos for the job i claimed points for, I have SSS stat, COE, reference letter, and ANMAC assessment. No payslips and ITR din, for which I'll submit a stat dec. Sapat na po kaya yun? Thanks sa sasagot!

nnanni01 · February 2018

@archdreamchaser nde pa nga po need kasi ni hubby pcc sa dubai, currently asa pinas cya kaya nde k pa sure ung process nkita k lng sa site na need nbi fingerprint tas pa authenticate po sa dfa tas courier sa uae embassy.

NoelRubio · February 2018

Hello guys,

May question lang po. Anyone can answer po.

Ask lang ako ng confirmation from you guys.

When it comes to submission ng EOI for NSW (visa 190), there's no need to apply to the NSW website to ask for nomination, tama po ba? Does the NSW select from EOI straight away and no need to apply online sa NSW website for a nomination?

Kasi sa mga nababasa ko: "The client should contact the State or Territory they are interested in receiving nomination from." I guess this is true to other states like VIC and NT, but not to NSW. Tama po ba?

Good day to all

Chew · February 2018

Hi. I am so newbie here at nangangalap plang po ng information kung pano mag apply. Ask ko lang ano po mas better, mag apply directly sa Australian embassy or kumuha ng agent? Hope someone will give me more details kasi as of now, nao-ovewhelmed kami masyado ng husband ko sa process na nabasa namen online. Nakakalito po kasi

batman · February 2018

@Chew its all up to you actually. if you have the luxury of time. and masipag kau mag research at magbasa kaya nyo gawin ng sarili nyo lng. If kong busy ka naman to do the research, kasi it really needs a lot of time, better engage sa profession like the agents.

batman · February 2018

@NoelRubio you can check directly sa website ng kada state na interested ka mag apply naka indicate doon ang procedure nila.

rurumi · February 2018

Hello!
Question lang po, past employee ako ng HP. However, nagchange sila ng name to DXC so my COE and my payslips will have the letterhead of DXC. Then yung ITRs ko, HP parin yung nakalagay. Okay lang po kaya ito kapag pinasa ko sa ACS and for Visa?
Thank you!

Heprex · February 2018

@rurumi nung umalis ka ba HP pa din? or DXC na? ako kase na retrieve ko payslips ko sa kanila, pero HPE letterhead pa din. pati generic COE ko HPE letterhead pa din, since past employee ako ng HPE not DXC.

rurumi · February 2018

@Heprex nung umalis po ako HP pa sila kaso hindi ako nakapagtago ng mga payslips ko so naglog ako ng ticket sa HR PDL nila. Ang binigay sakin DXC letterhead na payslips. I'm also having doubts how to make the customized COE, HP yung ilalagay ko na company ko but the letterhead they will provide will be DXC na po diba? Is this okay? Thank you sa pagsagot.

Heprex · February 2018

@rurumi kelan ka nag resign? pede mo retrieve excelity password mo sa kanila, nadun lahat ng payslips at ITR, nasa HPE letterhead pa. dun ko nakuha akin. Need mo mag pa approve sa manager ng Roles and Responsibilities mo, bago ka gawan ni HP ng COE with R&R. ginawa ko is generic COE na lang, tapos affidavit from former colleague.

rurumi · February 2018

@Heprex 2014 ako nagresign. Yes, binigyan nila ako access don sa excelity site pero nung dinownload ko DXC na nakalagay.

I see. Plan ko kasi pa-sign sa former manager ko then ask sa HR if pwede nila ilipat sa with company letterhead.

If you don't mind me asking, done kana sa ACS?
