    Hello, im planning for 189/190 po as Accountant (offshore).

    I read about 491, can that be used as a pathway to 189/190 po? (read abt 191 which will be in effect come 2022).

    Thank you!

    491 is a provisional visa leading to 191 (permanent residency). Once you have been granted a 491 visa, you are unable to apply for the 189/190 visa. That is one of the requirements.

    Once granted po ng 491, pwde ka pa din po mag apply ng 189/190. Temporary kasi ang 491 leading to 887. Yan si wallflower, taga SG yan na na grant ng 489. Pero nag apply ata yan ng 190 waiting ng grant po sya. Or baka bago na ba ang rules ngayon?

    Pag 491po ata na granted di na pwedeng mag apply sa 190.not sure ha.

    Aww!! New rule na nga para maka stay sila sa regional areas which is plan naman talaga ng government yan. Swerte ni wallflower naka abot sya ng old rule. Every now and then talaga ang changes, kaya dapat mabilisan din mag ayos at maka provide ng requirements. All the best sa lahat. Thanks sa clarification ๐Ÿ˜€

    Yun din pakiramdam ko. Last batch ng 489 tapos na-invite din for 190. Gusto ko na umalis ng SG at magstart ng new life sa AU!

    Lapit na yan!!! Ganyan kami nun habang waiting!! Boryong na boryong jan sa SG, lalo ata ngayon jan kasi limited lang activities na allowed. Di bale bubuhos grants nyan!!! Dasal lang tayo..

    Hindi naman panget. Maganda dito for single or newly wed couples. Okay din ang salary, pang ipon talaga. Safe din. Pero pag may bata na, sobrang mahal ng mga bilihin and yung tuition fee, pwede ng mag kolehiyo. Tapos were in working pass, so oag mawalan ng work, uwi agad. Haha so hindi siya pang retirement. Then pag tumagal kana dito, wala na masyadong mapuntahan kasi maliit na island lang ito. Kaya mostly ng mga taga andito oag holidays, uuwi talaga ng pinas or pupunta ng ibang Country.

    Tama mam, Mas masarap sa Singapore kung single ka (ouch) haha one reason is mababa ang tax , sobrang convenient lalo na sa Transportation, you can go to all the way to the airport just by taking the MRT kung wala ka naman ganu gamit, sobrang safe, I can order sa Mcdo sa counter and leaving my bag and my phone sa table but I don't recommend doing it! haha almost every MRT station may mall, palagi din sale...umm what else, bigla ko tuloy na miss ang Singapore...pero siyempre, kelangan din natin mag settle down, and Australia is more suitable for that, dahil right now, in Singapore, sobrang slim na ang chances na ma grant ang PR mo, lalo na sa Pinoy,kota na kasi tayo...kaya pag may job ka at natanggal, wala uwi muna, and nakakapagod yung ganun...siyempre gusto mo naman yung pang longterm
    According to our friends here in forum, mas malaki naman ang tax sa Australia, which is mababawi nmaan sa ibang bagay dahil mas maayus ang healthcare nila, education mas mura etc etc... which is mas maganda pag may mga kids na kayo...
    Maganda is work muna sa Singapore, ipon ipon ipon ng Job experiences and pera para pang settle sa Australia or whatever country is your aiming...

    pangit ba manirahan at mag work sa SG?

    Hindi naman panget. Maganda dito for single or newly wed couples. Okay din ang salary, pang ipon talaga. Safe din. Pero pag may bata na, sobrang mahal ng mga bilihin and yung tuition fee, pwede ng mag kolehiyo. Tapos were in working pass, so oag mawalan ng work, uwi agad. Haha so hindi siya pang retirement. Then pag tumagal kana dito, wala na masyadong mapuntahan kasi maliit na island lang ito. Kaya mostly ng mga taga andito oag holidays, uuwi talaga ng pinas or pupunta ng ibang Country.

    Tama mam, Mas masarap sa Singapore kung single ka (ouch) haha one reason is mababa ang tax , sobrang convenient lalo na sa Transportation, you can go to all the way to the airport just by taking the MRT kung wala ka naman ganu gamit, sobrang safe, I can order sa Mcdo sa counter and leaving my bag and my phone sa table but I don't recommend doing it! haha almost every MRT station may mall, palagi din sale...umm what else, bigla ko tuloy na miss ang Singapore...pero siyempre, kelangan din natin mag settle down, and Australia is more suitable for that, dahil right now, in Singapore, sobrang slim na ang chances na ma grant ang PR mo, lalo na sa Pinoy,kota na kasi tayo...kaya pag may job ka at natanggal, wala uwi muna, and nakakapagod yung ganun...siyempre gusto mo naman yung pang longterm
    According to our friends here in forum, mas malaki naman ang tax sa Australia, which is mababawi nmaan sa ibang bagay dahil mas maayus ang healthcare nila, education mas mura etc etc... which is mas maganda pag may mga kids na kayo...
    Maganda is work muna sa Singapore, ipon ipon ipon ng Job experiences and pera para pang settle sa Australia or whatever country is your aiming...

    Agree. minsan nakakamiss din talaga ang SG. ewan ko maski PR na dito sa AU meron something sa SG na minsan mamimiss mo talaga..hehehehe

    lively kasi dito. ahaha daming tao. daming mabibili, daming events.

    Totoo, iba ang Vibes ng Singapore, medyo fast paced din, pero okay naman, saka isang factor din kasi nasa Asian Country ka pa din kaya medyo Familiar ang mga bagay bagay, tulad ng FOOD (CHILI CRAB wahhhh!), mga Tao, kahit san may Pinoy, and yes mga events events, mag MRT ka lang, maka panuod ka ng mga UFC Fights concerts ganyan....pindot pindot lang sa app, naka book ka na sa sine..nakaka tuwa din yung pag mag babayad na sa restaurant, tap tap na lang sa app yung hatian sa bayad, walang ka hassle hassle hahaha
