@macdxb16 nagsubmit ako ng incorrect info RE my siblings. Dapat sa “others” sila kasi yung family member na non-accompanying is yung dependent sayo and mostly it is either your spouse or child.

hi @downunder15 , ano pong gagawin to correct the error?

just.anotherguy · March 2019

wow good for you @malt interested din ako about this. Kapag balik ko ng Adelaide try ko din mag inquire. Sana new rule nga ito at hindi lang nagkamali yung nag assist sayo hehehe. Kasi nabasa ko din sa website ng immi ay hindi entitled ng Medicare ang 489 visa..

@irenesky Kdarating lang po nmin dito last feb5. Color blue medicare card "temporary"

Kpag 887 n daw po kmi mag renew lang daw po for color green card medicare.

Pwede po kyo pumunta sa centerlink office.
Pila po kyo doon para mkkuha ng priority number and form gor medicare.

Medicare lang po ang pwede sa 489visa ha..di po kasali ang kahit anong centerlink benefits.

@just.anotherguy Hi! Im here in adelaide now. I went to medicare office and asked about medicare for 489 visa, the lady that assisted me asked me to call a hotline that can surely answer my query. I called them up and was advised that 489 visa is not eligible for medicare unless already applying for PR, or the country of origin has reciprocal health care agreement. Baka sa QLD lang yun pwede? Not sure though. :-)

downunder15 · March 2019

@koykoy nag submit kami ng incorrect answers. Nilagay ko siblings ko as others.

downunder15 · March 2019

@chococrinkle kapag nag apply ka ng 887 PR dun ka lang mabibigyan ng interim medicare.

chococrinkle · March 2019

@downunder15 Yes thats what I initially know. Some of us just got curious as @malt was enrolled with a 489 visa.

Hi guys, I'm from Melbourne and new to this thread. I've been looking into sponsoring my sister who is a med lab scientist, tossing between subclass 189 and 489-family sponsored. Few questions, #1. dapat ba related sa nominated skilled occupation ang requirement ng 489 visa na 12 months full time work? at #2. Is there anyone in this group that has also been family sponsored that I can personally get in touch with para mapagtanungan? Any response will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Are you referring to the 12 month work for her to apply for 887 PR visa after 2 years of living in a regional/designated area? If yes, any work will do. If she qualifies for 189 why bother applying for 489? If 489 is the only option, go for the 489 state sponsored rather than the family sponsored one because the quota is very limited- expect for a long wait to be invited unless you have a very high points.

Hello po! May tanong lang po ako. Hindi po ito related sa 887, pero sa 489 lang. Nag-aaral po ako dito sa Melbourne VIC. Pero nakapag-lodge na po ako ng 489 ko sa TAS. Tanong ko lang po kung maapektuhan ba yung application ng 489 kung nandito pa ko sa VIC? Thanks.

Hi everyone, I just want to ask po if the $385 visa cost for 887 includes dependents or is it just for the primary applicant? If so how much are they charging for the dependents? Like in my case po I'll be including my wife and our 1yr old son in my application.

Salamat po sa mga sasagot

$195 for your wife and $100 for your son...you can always use the visa pricing estimator on the website

Good day, I would like to ask if allowed ba lumabas ng australia kung gusto ko mag transition from 489 to visa 887? Kasi po diba may condition na I have to stay in my regional area for 2 years? Or pwede syang incremental? Balak ko po kasi mag bakasyon from time to time. Salmat po sa sasagot.

You are allowed to take vacation and still can apply even exactly 2 years upon arrival. They will allow you max number of days within that 2 years to be away( pero never published ilan) pero pag excessive, you have to cover those days you are away ( i suspect mga 90 days allowed). To be safe, 730 days in australia before applying. I am out 10 days within that 2 years and applied immediately after 2 years at wala naman problema

good day sa lahat, not sure if valid yung tanong ko sa thread, but may naka pag try na ba dito working with TFN and ABN to comply 35 hours requirement for 887?

jmwreck · April 2019

@fgs pwede po ba casual with TFN mga 30 hours, tapos ABN na yung ibang hours?

Yes..self employment is counted..they will also check the amount earned to verify your # of work hours claimed.

jmwreck · April 2019

@fgs yung casual (TFN) work ko kasi mga nasa 30-34 hours, di pa talaga umabot ng 35 hours, may kukunin kasi akong work with ABN, builders cleaner, may mga nag sabi kasi na mga ka kilala ko (under 457) na baka di pwede sabayin yung ABN & TFN under 489. Tumawag din ako sa home affairs, walang confirmation regarding sa ABN na "pwede" ma claim sa application ng 887 pero "try" daw.

archdreamchaser · April 2019

@jmwreck Ano yun ABN? ilang months ka na ngwork as casual?

ABN...Australian Business Number...need mo ito kung may business ka

jmwreck · April 2019

@archdreamchaser 8 mos working as casual, pero may mga weeks na hindi aabot sa 35hrs, ngayon di na talaga aabot kasi 4 days nalang binigay sakin na work.

@fgs naka pag apply na po ba kayo ng 887?

Applied 887 in 2016..exactly 2 years after arriving in Adelaide..now a citizen

jmwreck · April 2019

@fgs good for you sir, dumaan ka din ba ng combined ABN and TFN sa pag claim mo ng working hours for 887?

Supersaiyan · April 2019

Gudpm po, ask ko lang po yung insights nyo kung sa palagay nyo po ay mas advantageous yung 489 compared to upcoming 491 visa scheme sa Nov 2019? or vice versa? Maraming salamat po. God bless.

batman · April 2019

@Supersaiyan i haven't read much about 491. My take is always go for any visa that will let you work and live here. Pag naka in na just go with the flow. Worry less sa mga factors you can't control.

Supersaiyan · April 2019

@batman thanks po. Yup, sana nga po ibaba na din nila yung points to be inviteted para sa 489 visa. Sa ngayon po wala na ksing ibang pdeng way para itaas pa points ko, so 489/190 na lng pag asa ko.
