What you need is to have an OEC from POEA.

Agree with @cucci, you need an OEC since 482 is a working visa and not PR visa. The PDOS is only a prerequisite for the OEC.

As for the OEC requirements, what I have now is the offer of Employment and Employment contract. Naka pagapsched narin ako sa POEA Trinoma, need pa talaga na maprocess muna un sa Canberra bago sa POEA dito? Eh direct naman na POEA ang pupuntahan ko.

Someone posted his/her experience with POEA OEC processing somewhere in the forum... can't seem to remember exactly where it was but if I remember correctly, what was needed was for the employment contract to be "red-ribboned" by the Philippine embassy.

@jlee14 if galing sa pinas, afaik, dyan mo lang iproprocess sa PH lahat ng papers. Typically, yun lang mga onshore ang nagproprocess ng documents sa mga PH embassies as per my experience. I'm not sure on the current process though so try to search in some threads here.

Nandito ako sa Singapore ngaun at dito na ako magflight papunta sa Sydney. Sana naghead na ako sa advise ng mga kaibigan ko noon na dito na manggaling. Sa Australia ko na lang asikasuhin ung mga docs ko pari hindi maabala ng husto ung employer ko kakahiya naman.

@jlee14 yeah, kahit yun mobility team namin ang sabi sakin noon is wag mag fly in from PH dahil hassle talaga. Anyways, on the way ka naman na to AU, yun ang importante for now. All the best!

Hello po. Nasa SG rin po ako currently. Iniisip kong dumirecho na sa AU at dun magprocess ng papers. Sydney po yung magiging job location ko. Hindi naman po ba hassle mag asikaso sa embassy doon?

For me bro, mas ok na dumiretso ka na ng Sydney. Madami masyado hinihingi kapag sa pinas ka pa manggagaling. If you have the time to spend it sa pinas para mag-asikaso ng papers/documents/OEC, ok lang, pero kung yung work mo is good na dito sa AU, deretso ka na, yan maipapayo ko.
Lets ask the other forum goers kung ano ang say nila. All the best!

Kung makakuha ka ng visitor visa, mas madali na yung pag process ng OEC for the 482 visa pag andito na sa Au. You just need to get in touch with POLO Canberra, forward the required docs for verification of your contract.
Besides, kailangan lang naman ang OEC kung uuwi ka ng Pinas dahil hahanapan ka if mag exit using your 482 visa.
Pag lodge mo naman ng application for your 482 visa, automatic bibigyan ka ng Bridging Visa to allow you to stay while your application is being processed.

Salamat po @baiken @cucci. Yun nga po, kakauwi lang namin ng pinas ng halos 3wks. Kaya wala na rin time makauwi ulit. Nangalahati na rin yung funds namin. Bale hindi na po ba kailangan magpersonal appearance sa embassy sa Canberra? Send na lang ng docs? O kailangan pa rin? Layo kasi nun from Sydney haha kaya baka matagalan maasikaso if ever. Balak po namin magBM na lang once granted na yung 482, although may TV na rin ako.

No need for personal appearance. Please see POLO Canberra advisory regarding issuance of OEC.
