kung hindi mo magagawan ng paraan yan, hindi ka ma-aassess para makapag claim ka ng points for education at work experience.
since 23 ka palang, hindi mo maclaim ung max 30 points dahil nasa 25-32 yrs old so isipan mo ng paraan kung pano mo matatapos yung education mo. kapag hindi tlaga pwedeng matapos ang education, kalimutan mo na ang PR path sa AU dahil walang kasiguraduhan ang student visa para maging PR ka sa AU.

Much better kung ifamiliarize mo muna sarili mo sa pointing system nila for PR skilled nomination, para alam mo kung ilan ang points na pwede mo iclaim. Then saka ka magproceed if you think student visa is the best pathway for your PR. Icheck mo kung ano yung mga reqs ng assessing body of your nominated skill. Some requires a work xp and a certain degree. familiarize mo din muna sarili mo sa requirements ng skill na inonominate mo para mas makapagdecide ka kung worth it mag student visa.

pwede kang magfinish ng studies dun kaso walang guarantees un na magiging PR ka. ang end goal mo ay maging PR dun pero basahin mo news sa AU, madaming students ang hindi makakuha ng Pr.
mas mabilis ka pang magiging PR kapag skilled visa ang applyan mo.

1. Make sure na meron kang way na makakuha ng positive assessment kasi kahit anong aral mo sa aus pero wala kang way makakuha ng assessment, sayang lang pera at oras. Im an engineer at thankfully di need ng work exp para makakuha ng positive assessment. Alam ko pag IT field need ng at least 2 yrs
2. I plan to study sa aus for the +5 pts na makukuha after 2 yrs. I chose the cheapest option I could find kasi feel ko masyadong impractical ang masters since may positive assessment na ako.
3. In 2 years time, hopefully no changes, plano ko na mag apply ng PR. By then sana kayanin ko umabot ng 75 (30 pts age, 20 pts english ,15 pts degree sa pinas, 5 pts au study, 5 pts naati).
Mas pinili ko nalang mag aral sa aus kesa dito because to get 5 pts sa experience, need ng 3 yrs work compared sa 5 pts din pag nag study ka dun ng 2 yrs. May relatives naman ako and feel ko mas makakaipon ako dun kesa dito, wala pa stress ng traffic. Bottom line is, dapat alam mo na end goal mo bago mo simulan ang pag gastos ng pera. Mahirap kasi na gusto mo lang dun makapunta ASAP pero di ka sure ano ending na mangyayari sayo. All the best!

A little background about me.. I came to Sydney in 2006 on a student visa.. After 2 years of studies, I applied for my Permanent Residency under Skilled Migration.. My PR was granted on March 2012.. Ung sister ko and brother also came here on student visas.. My sister in March 2008 and ung brother ko nung December 2012.. Lahat kami Permanent na dito sa Australia.. Kaya alam ko ang hirap at sakripisyo ng mga international students.. Hindi lang pera ang iniinvest kundi pati oras at effort and time away from family.. Kaya I want to help those that needs assistance as I was once in your position.
