General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

aolee

Hi. Now lang ako naka log sa site na to, sana nuon ko pa nakita. Pwede pa kaya ako mag apply ng visa if I am turning 40 this year and my hubby 49? I am an architect and PR kami dito sa Singapore.

Hi Miss, kung 49 si hubby mo pasok kayo sa New Point Test, you can do a quick self assessement using this guide below. just make sure makakakuha kayo ng mataas na points sa ibang criteria, kasi ung 44-49 age ata 0 points but it makes you eligible to apply. by the way, the new pass mark for the New Point Test will be 65 unlike ung current pass mark na 120

<blockquote rel="julienmalubag">hi! i just would like to seek opinions regarding my sister's situation. I would like to know if my sister would have chances to qualify if she nominates pre-primary school teacher as her skill. she graduated bachelor in elementary education but had been teaching pre-school pupils since 2001 (day care teacher for six years and pre-school teacher for 4 years to present). all pupils under her will be enrolling to elementary school as grade 1. she graduated in DMMMSU, La Union (section 2) and she's now 30 y.o.

please enlighten me about this. thank you</blockquote>

Hi Julien,

sorry im not familiar with her occupation, na check nyo na ba kung nasa SOL ung occupation nya? kung may item sa SOL na closely realated sa jobs description nya, pwede nya inominate yun as long as mkakapagprovide cya ng proof na un nga ang gingawa nya. age 30 in the new point system is equivalent to 30 points, since education naman line of profession nya i think hindi cya mahihirapan ma-hit ang 8 score sa IELTS (20 points) that will make her 50 points agad, dagdag mo pa yung points para sa "Overseas work experience in nominated occupation or a closely related occupation" and "Qualifications (Australian or recognised overseas)" d malabo maabot nya ung 65 pass mark for the new point system. pls use the attached image on my previous post as guide.

Let me know if there's anything i can do to help

Thanks!

hi I am newbie here 🙂 ask ko lang po if may chance na makakuha ng PR after a 2 year course of studying in AU??? or dpt temp visa muna? nursing course po. pls help thanks!

@superyummy hi, sorry im not sure kung may visa for your case, kakagrad mo lang dyab sa AU right? i think sa requirements for PR dapat may relevant work experience. but still may edge ka compared sa iba. try to find a work muna dyan then, explore the visa options you can take.

Hi,

I am about to submit requirements for NIA assessment. I have a few questions:

1) my PRC id just expired (Feb 18, 2011) but when I read the reqts from NIA's website they did not mention that they need the PRC ID; only mentioned they need docs showing that my qualifications so I am submitting my CPA certificate and Board of Ratings.. Tama ba ung understanding ko?

2) required ba ung certification (as in letter talaga) from the officer certifying the docs? or the 'certified true copy' stamp will do?

3) how long does the assessment process last?

Appreciate your help/feedback.

Thanks,

Janesa 😃

@aolee. yes, nasa SOL ung occupation nya. and based sa new point system, malamang maabot nya 65 points (age-30, IELTS-10(conservative estimate), Overseas work experience-15, qualifications-bachelor degree-15)..kung di sya maka-7 sa IELTS, at 6 lang score nya, pwede ko sya i-sponsor as her sister kc i plan to reside sa Victoria and that's 10 points di ba? Paano pala makakuha ng sponsorship from a state or territory government? Do you have any idea about this?

@superyummy as far as I know, after mo mag aral ng 2 year course sa Australia, you can have a temporary visa, "recognised temporary graduate visa" ang tawag dun.you can stay for 18 months after the student visa expires. but regarding PR ang alam ko you have to apply pa rin, slightly different lang yata kung sa AU ka mag aapply.

hope this helps!

@janesa 1. I don't know about NIA pero pareho tayo, expired and I have to change my status pa. In my point of view mas maganda if you'll include your PRC license, dagdag points din un. madali lang naman mag renew, makukuha mo rin on the same day ang new ID, though you have to pay P450.00 more kung gusto mo mapabilis. ako I have to wait for a month or two para lang sa ID ko.

2.certified true copy stamp will do pero kailangan complete ung details ng mag nonotaryo.

12 weeks ang assessment sa VETASSESS and Engineers Australia. I don't know sa NIA pero my guess is pareho din siguro.

@julienmalubag you need to have a positive skills assessment and IELTS first kase un mostly ang requirement ng mga state for sponsorship, ung iba may financial requirement pang kailangan. here's the link for the state sponsorship http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/176/nom-state-terr.htm

goodluck!

julienmalubag

@janesa. it took 12 weeks din ung assessment ko sa NIA. and i included my PRC license with certification from PICPA (parang cert of good moral character).

superyummy

Thanks sa mga replies at sa mga magrereply pa 🙂 goodluck to all 🙂

Hi Everyone!

Newbie here. Would like to ask sana kung ibig bang sabihin under Partner skill qualifications -- "my partner can pass skills assessment in an occupation on the applicable Skilled Occupations List for my subclass"-- , eh kelangan rin ba nya magpa-assess muna sa Engineering Body sa australia? Ako ang principal applicant. Kelangan pa rin ba sya magpa-assess like me? Thanks in advance sa mag-advice.

Hi wondermae, I think magpapa assess lang siya kng gusto mo magclaim ng additional points. Kung okey naman na ung points mo wag m na lang xa pa assess. I think need nya lang take ng IELTS kasi pag hindi eh magbabayad ka later sa Aust ng tuition nya for english class yata... 🙂

examiner30

Help din po 🙂

Kasi I passed the CPAA assessment years ago and it was explicitly indicated na valid siya til 2012. Khapon hinahanap ko ung letter ng CPAA sakin nwawala na...huhuhu

Nag stopped kasi ako dun sa processing nung nablessed kami ng hubby ko ng Down Syndrome baby at ang daming nagdidiscourage samin kasi minimal daw ung chance na magrant dahil sa case ng baby ko.

Ngaun Gusto ko siya ituloy ulit kesa naman magsisi ako dahil dko cnubukan. May paraan po ba para makakuha ako ng copy ng assessment ko sa CPAA?

TIA!

Hi examiner30,

i think your best chance is to contact cpaaustrali.com , un ang assessing authority mo right?

just prepare the necessary info you need to provide them so they can trace your record.

just incase here's the link to their contact form

hi everyone! thanks for all your help. i got my positive assessment from NIA last April 19. I have e-lodged my visa last May 17. Praying that the processing time would be quick lang.. I have a friend who also applied under subclass 175. Case officer contacted her after 7 months for her medical na. She is now waiting for the visa grant. I heard from her ung CPA friend nya dw na single applied din last year. It took 3 months lang dw to finish. Mas mabilis ba pg single?? I recently got married ksi and my husband is included na in my application... So I'm worried na bka mas matagal ang application..
