You can stay as long as you want..di lang permanent :-) you can even fly overseas. The 2 years can be counted from from Big move kahit lumabas ka ng Australia..di lang excessive. Though wala naman max days outside Au outlined sa website nila, ang usual is max 90 days otherwise kailangan mo extend application ng 887

@hydroquinones kung nakalagay sa Grant letter mo na Oct 2020 need mo makapasok ng Au on or before Oct 2020 kasi mawawala na yung visa mo.. pwede ka naman mag first entry ka lang para ma activate yung visa then balik ka na lang kung kelan ka ready to move dito sa Au.

Ano po masasabi nyo sa above link regarding 489 visa granted after Nov.16, 2019? Nagemail ako sa Homeaffairs to confirm this, pero wala pang reply eh.
*May 2016 -Heard one friend sharing stories about Australia
-Had my research the ff.day about my job opportunity in Australia
-Become aware about PTE, ANZSCO and VETASSESS
*Sept.2016 - 1st attempt of PTE (Dubai). LRSW = 83/71/76/83
*Dec.2016 - Submitted docs to VETASSESS for Skills Assessment
*Feb.2017 - Positive result from VETASSESS
(Only chance of EOI was in SA which require high points for a 489 visa)
*Mar.2017 - 2nd attempt of PTE (Phil). LRSW = 86/76/65/90 (unsuccessful to get superior)
*Nov.2017- I turned 40, which means minus 10 pts. =(
- Started to lose hope and forget my Aus dream for a while
*July 2018 - NT, SA and Tasmania were open
- I needed to get a superior score from PTE
*Aug. 2018 - 3rd attempt of PTE (Dubai). LRSW = 57/69/84/56 (scores were awful)
(Despite my scores, I am determined and wont stop til i get that superior)
*Oct.2018 - 4th attempt of PTE (Phil). LRSW = 79/90/83/86 (at last!)
*Nov.2018 - EOI Northern Territory, Tasmania and SA
*Aug.1, 2019 - Northern Territory ITA
*Aug.7, 2019 - Official NT Skillselect ITA (Hired MA for visa lodging)
*Aug.20, 2019 - Lodged Visa
(Whatever the outcome is, life goes on & Im forever grateful to the Lord)
*Nov.18, 2019 - 489 Visa direct grant
Thank you Lord
