*Nov.2017- I turned 40, which means minus 10 pts. =(

*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

Hello Mga Kabayans.
Newbie po dito, tanong ko lang po sana kung may chance for 190 kahit 0 relatives and friends sa NT. Salamat po sa mga mag-reply
Joined: Mar 10, 2016
Unfortunately 190 are allocated to onshore applicants. 491 would be the best way forward. All the best
Joined: Dec 10, 2019
Good day po thank you for your reply. As per my agent ganun din po ang sabi niya pero just to clarify things wala po nakapost sa official NT website na 190 is strictly for onshore applicants or meron po ba at na missout ko lang?

I’m not sure where it’s posted. I only know because I got an email from NT for our clients.

@eeeboys @batman In regards sa Financial Evidence, plano ko din sana na Bank Certificate ipsa para san di nila mapansin na nangutang lang ako para mafulfill yung AU$65K. Unlike Bank Statement na magrereflect na may deposit ng large sum of money which is yung inutang ko. Tingin nyo po mas okay isubmit ang Bank Certificate or no big deal naman sa kanila na makita sa Bank Statement na inutang lang ang Financial capacity? Thanks a lot sa magaadvice.

Nabasa ko po sa NT website not exactly the same ng pagkakasabi nila, normally inoofer nga daw po talaga ang 190 sa onshore applicants. May nalaman na po ba kayong case na nagrant ng 190 na offshore applicant?

For your opinion po, anu mas okay isubmit, Bank Statement na reflecred yung deposit ng inutang ko or just a Bank Certificate na reflected lang yung actual balance ng account ko?

@julien.demiar the requirement was clear. Net assets. You have to declare both assets and liabilities. If you only declare assets and hide liabilities that's fraudulent which might have consequences in the future. I'll go with bank statement.

@batman Sir tulad po ng sabi nyo na ang net assets ay assets and liabilities, ibig sabihin po ba ima-minus po yung liabilities q sa assets or magsa-sum up po sya para makumpleto yung required financial capacity?
In reality po kasi sobrang kunti lang naman siguro ng visa holders na currently may possession ng big amount of money na required nila kaya ang one of the possible means po ay ang mangutang or magloan kaya iniisip ko na kung magloloan pero ibabawas lang din naman ang liabilities sa assets, it defeats the purpose lang din po. Hahaha.

Your assumption about net assets is correct. Better to present it that way kasi yun required nila . Let them decide. Kasi they will see how much your cash currently. Your liability can be long term that doesn't need to be settled now. So your still capable to survive with the current funds you have even you have liability. Their concern, IMHO, is are you gonna survive in NT until you get employed? If yes how.. Show the funds. Kaya din need employability kasi their concern is makak work kaba agad pag dating or maging pabigat lang sa government. If yes show employability proof.. Try mo i view yung pano nila I assess case mo, its not just providing kasi what's required, at least understand why they require it, from there, better proof and supporting docs ma provide mo.
In short provide mo net asset, provide proof din na utang mo is not payable on demand but on a long term basis. So you can still use the funds currently. If its other way around that is a different story..

I opted po sa services ng isang MARN. While registering sa NT website may option po sa account type either as "Applicant" or "Migration Agent" alin po dun ang dapat piliin since may agent ako?

Yes sir yung registration po online sa website ng NT. They insisted on using my email at yung application type is applicant. Nag-tataka lang po ako kung bakit hindi "Migration Agent"
Joined: Dec 10, 2019
Nag-create po ako ng account using my personal e-mail just to test kung paano. Upon completion of the requirements ready to apply na po ako online thru NT website but then hiningi ng agent ko yung password since registered na yung e-mail ko and suggested that account type shall be applicant and not migration agent. Sinubukan ko po mag-research pero parang gray area yung part na yun.

Thank you for your response mam.
Yes mam, does this mean that you apply for your client's NT nomination through your agency's registered account on the website?
