hello guys, ask lang po.. nagtatry nko magapply from 489 to 887... nilalagay ko ung visa grant number nmen... tas ayaw magproceed kc incorrect format daw.. anu b dpat ilagay don? thank you po

tolitskii · August 2018

plage po lumalabas “the value you have entered in the field visa number is not a correct format”. di ba po 11 digits na puro number lang nman un? tsaka same b sya ng visa grant number?

@tolitskii try communicating to their helpdesk if any...

geninego · August 2018

Hello di ko po sure kung may nagtanong na haha but my question is one of the requirements is working full time (35 hours a week) in a regional area, does that mean Annual leave and sick leave are considered to be part of that one year, or do I have to start from scratch each time in terms of counting the hours if nagskip ng work? I work full time but maybe paranoid lang ako na hndi nila iccount yun haha

Thanks in advance for any help

geninego · August 2018

follow up lang din po, kailangan po ba talaga ng IELTS even if wala sa list of requirements sa website?

GlennM · August 2018

@tolitskii may button for help yang field, kung yung visa number na tinutukoy e yung number na naka indicate sa old style visa na kinakabit sa passport then hindi yan yung visa grant number. Iba ang visa grant number sa visa number na dinidikit sa passport.

@geninego yup kaylangan ng ielts.

geninego · August 2018

Ano pong score requirement ng IELTS? Akala ko wala na kasi walang naka specify sa list nila

and yung work requirement basta po full time okay lang holidays? Thanks!

geninego · August 2018

Hindi po ba na sa dependent applicant lang nag aapply yung IELTS? Ako po yung primary applicant

Evidence of English language ability – dependent applicant(s)
Evidence of Functional English for each dependent applicant who is 18 years or older at the time this application is lodged. Evidence of Functional English can be provided up until the time the application is decided.
If you will not be providing evidence a dependent applicant has Functional English, you should advise that you will pay the second instalment of the visa application charge. This charge will be requested when required by the processing office.

GlennM · August 2018

@geninego at least competent. regarding sa holidays di ko sure kasi nung nag submit ako ng 887 e lampas na ako ng 2 years. Isa ang ielts sa documents na ipapa attach, pero kung may ielts ka na sa visa 489 mo pwede mong iattach yang same ielts na yan.

tolitskii · August 2018

@GlennM oo nga, ileave as blank ko na lang siguro.. kasi parang nararamdaman ko nga na iba ung hinihingi. hehe wala nman ako visa label s passport. kaso pag blank, lumalabas nman “ You do not hold a valid prerequisite visa to enable use of this service“

nagtry pa lang kc ako magapply pero di ko isubmit although wala pa 2 yrs. excited lang! lol

Hi to all. May i ask kung visa 489 magrant sakin madali po ba maghanap ng work? And lahat po ba ng may hawak ng visa 489 isa nagiging PR din after 2 yeras? Im just expecting the worst na kung hndi ko makuha desired score sa 189 at 190 pede na as last option talaga ang 489. Please give me ideas and inputs sa mga nagka visa 489. Thanks po sa inyo

GlennM · August 2018

@JHONIEL disadvantage ka sa mga job postings na ang requirement e PR or Citizen. Pero case to case din may kilala ako 189/190 na more than 6 months na wala pa din work. For me, it took me at least 2-3 months bago nag ka work while my wife wala pa 1 month may work na mas malaki pa sweldo LOL (lumandi ata sa interview, dapat siguro nilandian ko din) Wala pa naman ako nabasa dito na nareject application nila. Nakikita ko lang naman reason na mareject ang application are if you're not able to fulfill yung requirement sa pag apply ng PR or may ginawa kang unlawful.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@GlennM ah ok sir kayo ano po visa na na grant sa inyo? Kapag po ba 489 diba 4 years after four years at nag upgrade ako to 887 ilan years p po madadagdag?

chococrinkle · August 2018

@JHONIEL Hi! Yung paghahanap ng work naka depende din sa occupation. If in demand talaga ang job mas madaling makahanap ng work. Kami din visa 489 but thank God my husband got a job in just one week, he is a Chef in a small hotel and madami na din ako nabasa na madaling makahanap ng work pag Chef.

I will give a tip sa jobseekers. Importante din local experience kasi may mga employers na gusto yung meron na nito. So for a start if medyo challenging sa line of work mo, maybe try also other areas muna na merong malaking demand like retail and hospitality. One advise, if medyo marunong magluto pwede mag apply kahit mga breakfast cook, naka pag cook test husband ko sa isang cafe, more on microwave lang daw ginawa nya need lang nila mabilis kumilos, so swak yun sa mga marunong sa kusina.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@chococrinkle ah ok po. Ilang years na po kayo mam and naong state nag sponsor sa inyo? After 4 years ano po plan nyo na kunin na visa? Diba po 4 years lng ang visa 489?

chococrinkle · August 2018

@JHONIEL This year lang kami na grant. After 2 years mag apply kami visa 887. Yes 4 yrs lang ang 489 so if qualified na to apply 887 mag apply na agad.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@chococrinkle ah ok po last option ko kasi 489 mam pag hndi ako naka superior sa pte. Para makaalis agad kami kung sakali. Ung 887 mam ilan years po un?

GlennM · August 2018

@JHONIEL Visa 887 is a PR visa, afaik wala expiration ang permanent resident visa.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@GlennM ah ok pero diba sir 189 and 190 isa PR din pero 5 years lng sya?

Travel facility of all PR visa is only 5 years..your PR visa wont expire. If you need to travel outside Australia after the validity of your travel facility, you need to apply for a Resident Return Visa which will extend your travel facility for another 5 years.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@fgs ok sir maraming salamat medyo ok na din pala ang visa 489. Ang importante samin mag asawa mkapunta agad kung sakali ma grant. Ang problema lng is wala pala health insurance ang 489 sir?

chococrinkle · August 2018

@JHONIEL nasagot na pala nila lahat ng questions mo. Grab the visa that could bring you soonest to Au as rules are often changing. God bless you sa application.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@chococrinkle yes mam. Salamat sa inyong lahat! Malaking help talaga tong forum lalo na sa mga bagong salta na katulad ko. Wag po sana tayong magsasawang magbigay ng information sa ating mga kababayan! May God bless us all!

No medicare for 489..Currently, most states will not sponsor 190 for offshore applicants anymore, instead of 190, 489 na binibigay. This is the result of 190 sponsored applicants na lumilipat sa ibang state kahit di pa natapos ang 2 years residency na required as state sponsored. Naging stricter na ang mga states kasi ginagawa lang silang way to enter australia at di honor yong pinirmahan na titira at least 2 years sa sponsoring state. If you have chance for 189 then go for it, if not 190 or 489 is alright..ang importante makapasok ka. Magagawan na yan ng paraan later. Talks about reduction in immigration intake is popping up in the parliament. Tighter citizenship requirements will again proposed in the next parliament sitting.. Points test passing mark just increased to 65. .these measures they're implementing will make it tougher to migrate in the near future.

JHONIEL · August 2018

@fgs ok sir. Maraming salamat. Ang gusto naman talagaga namin mag asawa is to have a quality life. Kaya we’re pursuing australia talaga.

Sir last question na. What if dyan ma- preggy si wife? Mahirap po ba pag ganon if 489 visa holder ako since hndi ako entitled to enroll sa medicare? Pasensya n po ha ang dami ko tanong gusto ko kasi handa kami bago sumabak dyan. Thanks po

Medyo mahal ang hospital dito and not covered pa with 489 visa so its out of pocket ang gasto..she can have her baby sa PH...anyway you have to apply for your child a subsequent entrant visa kasi di sya automatic citizen..

JHONIEL · August 2018

@fgs ah ok po mahirap pala pag ganong situation ang nangyari. Balak kasi namin dyan na po sya ma preggy para magkasama na din kami. Salamat po

You can just save for it..sabay pa din kayo pero kung gusto nyo ng lesser expenses, uwi lang sya to give birth.
