hello maam @RheaMARN1171933,
clarification lang po regarding SA visa 491 for Developer Programmer.
Base sa list po:
May nakalagay na Provisional 491 visa only, meron din nakalagay na Not Available for High Points Nomination. Pero upon checking yung Article 3.5 na sinasabi sa taas, paghindi daw available for High Points, not qualified to apply for Visa 190 at 491.
Meaning po ba nyan is only High Points yung pwede for 190/491 for Developer Programmer in SA?

Ask ko lang po if may chance mabigyan ng ITA ang isang offshore applicant. My nominated occupation is Industrial Engineer. Pero naguguluhan po ako if may chance na matawag o wala based sa info sa website nila.

Anything can happen and we'll never know po. Sa ngayon tight po ang requirements nila, pero pagdumating yung new fiscal year na tinatawag, luluwag po ulit kaya may chance na lahat.

Hi good day, meron na po ba dto na naka experience na state sponsored ka tapos lumipat s ibang regional area kse hnd sila mkhanap tlga ng work dun s state n nag sponsor sayo?
Like kung s SA ngsponsor sayo tapos may job offer ka na sa ibang state na regional. Ok lang ba yun?
Hnd ba naapektuhan yung pag apply ng PR nyo?
Thanks in advance

If you’re referring to a 491 visa, yes it would affect your PR as living in the region is part of the prerequisite for PR grant.

Hello, ask ko lang po kasi my sister is a registered nurse in Sydney. Ngayon matatapos na postgrad visa nya sa November. 8 months palang po experience nya as nurse. Ngayon, balak po nya mag Adelaide kasi andito ako. In applying 491 state nomination po, nakalagay 5 years dapat ang experience nya. Talaga po bang ganun? Napakataas naman. Tapos pwede din po sya under family sponsored or chain migration. Naka apply palang po kami for 887 visa. Waiting palang po sa result. Pwede po ba ako magsponsor? Though nakalagay naman yes basta living permanently for 24 mos over na. Ang tanong ko po, need pa din ba yung 5 yrs work experience pa din kung family sponsored na ang pathway? Tapos nakalagay pa po, living interstate is not applicable for state nomination. So dapat po, magmove sya dito sa Adelaide na?? Sorry dami pong tanong

Kasi kung need pa din ng 5 yrs experience nya, better na mag state sponsored sya kesa family sponsored. Kaso yun nga wala sya 5 yrs experience

Hello po. May gusto lang po ako linawin. Nakasaad po sa Migration SA na 'Evidence of financial capacity is not required. However, Immigration SA reserves the right to seek additional information or evidence at a later stage if necessary. The requirement depends on whether you are applying offshore or onshore.
Based po sa experience nyo po, mas hinihingan po b ng evidence of financial capacity kapag offshore applicant?
Joined: Mar 10, 2016
Don’t base this on people’s experience. Every case is different. You should be prepared with evidences at the end of the day.

Hi guys, any state sponsorship success stories applying offshore? My occupation is in the special conditions category and unfortunately I can't meet 95 points (261112 Systems Analyst). I'm currently offshore so I have no other pathway except being a student I guess.

SA will re-open this coming July 2020. Share ko lang yun experience ko dito. Last May 2019, I was about to apply for SA, open pa yun occupation ko nun hapon pero kinabukasan when I checked bigla naging special conditions na. Kala ko hindi na ako makaka-apply, a friend told me they usually restart the occupations every July of the year, so hinintay ko sila mag-open. meron first day pa lang closed na kaya dapat check mo palagi kung kelan sila magre-open. Last time, it was July 4 and some occupations went to special conditions that day.
