Good day po sa lahat! Newbie po here... Naka base po ako now sa Singapore and interested to apply for Permanent Residence sa Australia with my family, pwede po ba mag ask how to start? I am still reading din po dito pra po maka kalap ng details but appreciate po if you can help to response on the first move na need ko. Salamat po ng marami!

welcome to the forum. first you need to identify which occupation you can nominate. read along lang you will pick up steps along the way. Also take English test. .

you can also have an assessment with a registered agent. to see what are your chances.

@RheaMARN1171933 Thank you so much

agentKams · September 2018

@batman @cyborg5 i think they have changed the health requirements for non-migrating dependents, in which they don't require medicals. iyong akin kasi character documents lang hiningi and form 1221.

kymme · September 2018

@madc ano po occupation nyo? dpende po ksi ung pathway sa occupation

RejNaix11 · September 2018

Hi po! Question lang, yung BReN po ba yung Identification Number ng Birth Cert.? If yes, ilang digits po doon or lahat po ba included?

batman · September 2018

@RejNaix11 when asked about that sa mga forms nilagay ko ng NA.

2. Iniisip rin po namin na mag-engage ng immigration agency dahil medyo tight na po yung time frame dahil po sa age namin. Ano po bang chance rate na maging successful kapag nag-engage kami ng agency?

Maraming salamat po in advance.

1. mag-pa assess kayo both para makita nyo kung sino ang mas narecognize ng EA. kung pareho ang results, magagamit nyo din yun as Partner Skill points "+5 points".
2. pare-pareho ang chance rate as long as maprovide/satisfy nyo ang AU. mas madali lang buhay kapag may agency dahil guided kayo ng correct procedure at masasagot ang mga concerns nyo.

try nyo na ding mag english exam, dapat maka-79 kayo sa 4 major bands Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. in case na pareho ng qualifications ang ibigay ng assessor sainyo (EA), eto ang magdidictate kung sino ang magiging primary sainyo. hindi din masasayang to dahil kasama to sa requirement for partner skill points.

VirGlySyl · September 2018

very well said @patotoy +1!

mas maganda nga kung parehas talaga dahil wala namang masasayang,
EA assessment for partner points, yung iba nga nanghihinayang at hindi same list yung occupation nila para makapagpa-assess at makuha yung +5 for partner.

dhel_2506 · September 2018

@patotoy @VirGlySyl

Thank you po sa response at advise.

imau · September 2018

@michaelguanzon_ust Congrats, can you share me your reviewers for the PTE? Thank you.

batman · September 2018

@imau ok lng kong wala contract. Lagyan mo n lng cover letter bakit wala na.

imau · September 2018

Hay thank you po medyo nkhinga nko. Msusubmit npo nmin ung s verassess. Thank u po s pgreply

lashes · September 2018

@batman hi batman
Ask ko lang din po for my friend,kasi mag papa assess yung husband nya para maka claim sila ng 5pts (wife is the main applicant) kaso si husband is IE graduate but working for a different field for 10yrs plus, so pag nag pa assess po siya sa EA wala na ung RSEA? Ok pa din po yung 5points pag ganun?

batman · September 2018

@lashes below are the requirements for claiming partner skills:

•is under 45 years of age
•has competent English
•has an occupation that is on the same skilled occupations list as your nominated occupation
•has been assessed by the relevant assessing authority as having suitable skills for their nominated occupation
•is coming to Australia with you
•is not an Australian citizen or permanent resident.

based on the above it only requires suitable skills assessment not employment assessment per my understanding.

Grifter · September 2018

@lashes hi po. Makikigulo, hehe. Ano po ang ipapa assess ni hubby kay EA, IE po ba? Kung tama ang alala ko dapat ang career ep ay for the past 10yrs, at kung hndi po IE ang work nya, pano nya masasatisfy ung skills nya as IE?
Pero meron pala ko nabasa dito nuon na ang career ep ay based sa school project at in-acknowledge naman ni ea, di ko lang sure kung pwd pa un ngayon/ kung pwd din ganon gawin ni hubby

imau · September 2018

@batman Makikisali nrn po ako, regarding po sa partner assessment. Bale ang worry ko po kc same field kme ng asawa ko, Archi po preho pero ID po sya ngpasa, ako po same nya my ID experience may Archl. Pero ako po within 10 years prng ns 4 years lng po ung ngtrabaho akonpgpinagsamasama. Nagstop stop dahil po sa babies. Pagnanganak. Tas meron po dun ID my Archi.

Tanong ko po, may mkuha p kya akong points sa Vetassess kung mgpapaassess? Isa po s naiisp ko ung magsuperior sa PTE ung asawa ko para maharak kme ng dnko mgpaassess. Any idea po.

batman · September 2018

@imau my understanding pag positive skill assessment si partner maka claim ng points regardless how many years of experience unless pag vetasses yata na require na nag work para may positive assessment.

imau · September 2018

@batman ang ibig sbihin po ba iba ung vetassess iba rn ung skills assessment n cnsb pr s partner? Meaninng po qualifications lng tntgnan hnd ung gaya s main applicant na pinupuntusqn tlg per year. Pcncy npo dme ko tnong Dpko gno ngfocus s basa kpg s partner npo. Vetassess plng first stage kme. Next nmn po aralin nmin pno tumaas pte.

Pero nung nglodge po kayo ng vetassess tas hnd priority ilang weeks inabot?

Salamat po tlg.

batman · September 2018

@imau example lang yung vetasses. di ko lam ang sa occupation mo.

imau · September 2018

Archi po. Pede rn id. Same lng po s asawa ko.

hey guys, quick question: ano ung correct na pagfillup ng GIVEN NAME sa EOI?

ex.
PASSPORT:
LAST NAME: CHAN
FIRST NAME: JOSE MARI
MIDDLE NAME: LIM

EOI:
A)
LAST NAME: CHAN
GIVEN NAMES: JOSE MARI

or should it be

LAST NAME: CHAN
GIVEN NAMES: JOSE MARI LIM

pag binago ko ba EOI ko mababago rin ung DOE? and would it matter sa EOI or pwede sa Visa application icorrect?

I've read up on this pero i just wanted to confirm. Thanks guys!

batman · September 2018

@tofurad I complete/correct mo na lang sa visa application.

XwWrfwx · September 2018

Thanks @batman ! I realized pala sa previous Visitor Visa ko, hindi ko rin minention ung middle name. AAAND sa PH passport pala GIVEN NAMES na nga yung label dun first name. whew!

Follow-up question about names: yung wife ko (dependent) mixed yung documents niya with her married and maiden name kasi we just recently just got married.

I read na yung VISA details should match the PASSPORT. since her passport is still in her maiden name, in the forms dapat maiden name parin gamitin? tapos imention nalang sa "other names known by" yung married name? tama po ba ang ganitong approach?

Mia · September 2018

@tofurad if she hasn’t used the married name elsewhere then you don’t have to put her name plus your surname sa other names known by.

Some people marry and don’t change their names at all.
