    Hello! ask ko lang, kung offshore ako at meron akong 5 years of experience sa occupation na listed sa NSW stream 2 regional skilled occupation list pero wala akong job offer at wala din kong immediate family living in regional nsw, pwede ba akong magapply sa 491 visa ng NSW? Second question ko is tungkol sa form nila for offshore and have at least 5 years' skilled employment yung part 4 skilled employment. yung una kasi sa checklist is letter(s) of offer and/or employment contract(s) which is a mandatory document. ang tanong ko is yung document ba na hinihingi nila is from the current and pervious employer mo? TIA. God bless.

    Hello, just upload the documents which you think are relevant. For me, cguro yes i will upload all.. And for payslip, kung mpagkakasya mo lahat ng docs sa email then upload mo lahat.. Kung hndi kaya atleast 3 payslips per year. Remember you need to send the docs via email and very limited ang size nun.

    Hello @cjgr, they only mention "signed and dated reference letter(s) from your employer on the organisation’s letterhead", I'm not so sure how detailed should be the contents, pero if your assessing body is Vetassess, use your reference letter that you submitted during the Vetassess assessment and it should be sufficient enough.

    If hindi pa expired yung Assessment mo yun ang gamitin mo. Sayang rin lang naman yun kasi ang mahal rin yun.
    Kumuha ka nalang ng updated reference letter, tax document, social security insurance, appraisal letters, bank statement of account.

    Ang problem lang pag lumipat ka ng employment, di mo maisasama yung assessment mo. 3 years before lodging ang deadline na assessment mo. Example Engineers Australia

    Good day!

    Meron din po bang nurse dito na naghihintay sa pag oopen ng 491 visa sa NSW?.

    Sa current status po ba ng application sa australia, is it much better to apply for 491 than 190?.

    Thank you.

    Hello, is it possible to work and live in another "regional" area within the state where you applied for the 491 visa? :) for example, my relative's lives in a regional area in NSW but I found a place and work within NSW but the postcode is also considered as a regional area.

    As long as your in the regional areas of your sponsoring state, walang problema.
