    Thank you for the encouragement @holahappymaria !

    Pwede kaya na after 2 years of bachelor in nursing, mag continue ng studies for masters in nursing ng 1.5 years sa Australia din? If yes, does that mean na mas mataas ang magiging show money ko? Gusto ko kasi sabihin sa gte ko na i want to pursue being a clinical educator in my home country after my studies.

    Also is it true na pag na refuse sa visa application, magiging 10 years na ulit bago pwedeng mag reapply?

    @shelly possible at reasonable naman sayo na may background ka sa nursing. mas malala naman yun akin na walang background haha. ang showmoney ay depende sa school na papasukan mo. ang course ko ay for 2 years pero hiningi lang na show money ay for 1 year. narefuse visa ko june 2017 tapos nagreapply ako at naapprove ng oct 2017

    @kymme I haven’t really considered pathway to PR. I don’t have ideas about it actually. I haven’t practiced nursing since 2013 and besides it’s not for me I think. Pwede naman magpasponsor ng work visa di ba til maging PR? That’s what I was thinking kaya nagpaenrol na ako.

    @julypearl ah okay kaya pala but its up to u. just a heads up, not easy ang work visa sponsorship. even nurses have a hard time looking for sponsors. unless, bonggang experience na. in case may mag sponsor sau then good. but try to check skills list if nandun ang childcare. kasi u need to have a skill pra sa PR. just my two cents

    +1 sa response ni @kymme, with the recent changes sa 482 (TSS) former 457 work visa, dapat nasa MLTSSL and nominated occupation to be able for you to get PR sponsorship. check niyo iyong pathway where childcare is para mas certain iyong next step after ng course mo.

    @aspirant0508 hi. im wondering bakit mg diploma in nursing kapa then bachelors? why not go straight to bachelors? you have to prove GTE though as to why ng change career ka. diploma in nursing can only lead to Enrolled Nurse and mej pahirapan ang pg PR ng EN. pg bachelor, straight to RN ka then mas madali pang maging PR

    Hi guys medyo naiinip na ako maghintay ng PR visa so I want to check the student visa pathway. Basic info about me is that I am a recent electronics engineering grad sa UST, already assessed positively by EA, and already hold an IELTS and PTE exam. I think kumpleto na docs ko. Details of my plan are as follows:

    1. I plan on pursuing studies for the Graduate work stream so 2 yrs worth of study sya right? Balak ko itake is diploma and advanced diploma in Work Health and Safety which is I think related sa engg. Both courses take 52 weeks to finish.
    2. When I finish these courses, I am eligible to claim points for the Australian study requirement right? Currently I'm sitting at 60 pts, so in 2 years, I'll reach 70 kasi I'll finish the course and turn 25 yrs old as well.
    3. I'll be staying at my uncle sa Perth during my study so ok lang ba na sya ang magpapakita ng proof of funds instead of my parents?

    So far yan ang plano ko guys. Kumbaga I take the PR pathway with the points I get after I finish studying. Is there anything I missed guys? All of your inputs will be very much appreciated :D

    @aspirant0508 am sorry pero ang mga agents can be bias dahil sa amount na binibigay ng schools sa kanila pagnakakuha ng students. lahat possible mo na pasukan as long as matibay ang GTE mo. pwede ka mag inquire sa dati kong agent: [email protected]
