Dagdag po ng tanong.
1. Sa application form po, handwritten po ba ito or pwede edit ko nalang ang pdf?
Ang sagot nasa first page ng form hahaha dapat hand made daw!
I found this answer useful sa mga walang vocational course.

Trades Recognition Australia
When I checked the TRA website eto ang nakita ko:
From 26 November 2012 Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) will no longer have an approved registered training organisation available to conduct skills assessments for temporary (457) or permanent migration for the following occupations:
Aircraft Maintenance Engineers (Avionics)
Aircraft Maintenance Engineers (Mechanical)
Applicants for temporary migration whose nominated occupation is Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (Mechanical) should contact the Department of Immigration and Citizenship directly to discuss skills assessment requirements for their visa at www.immi.gov.au/contacts/.
Applicants for permanent migration whose nominated occupation is Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (Avionics) or Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (Mechanical) will be required to apply for a skills assessment through TRA’s Migration Skills Assessment (MSA) program. Please see the MSA applicant guidelines on TRA’s website for program information.
We are planning on applying either under 189 or 489 (Relative sponsored), question is san sya magpapa-assess? Which visa is more relevant for us (family of 4)? Thank you

- ang ibig lang po nilang sabihin sa "TRA will no longer have an approved registered training organisation available to conduct skills assessments", ay hindi na po pwedeng mag-pa-assess sa mga 3rd party assessment agency like Vetassess at Victoria University (for the occupations mentioned)..
- Visa is not based on number of family members.. there are several factors to consider in selecting the correct visa subclass... like: is your occupation in SOL or CSOL, is your total points =>60 points?
please check other threads in the forum to get more information..

Actually my husband has 60 points granting that he will have a overall score pf 7 in IELTS. Pero just for the sake of higher points kaya we're comsidering visa 489 since my hisband's cousins we're all permanent resident of Australia. Ako naman, registered nurse pero dahil kelangan ko pa mag-bridging course etc so hindi na kami kukuha ng points from partner. We have decided to do the whole application without an agent kasi that will save us a lot of money na pwede namen i-allocate sa mga ibang requirements and fees. Pag 60 points ba malaki na ang chance na makakuha ng invitation sa 189?

- ielts score should be 7 in each band para makuha ang 10pts (not Overall score po)
- for visa 489 (relative sponsor), your occupation should be in SOL
- kung nasa CSOL, your other option is visa 489 din pero Regional Sponsor (not relative sponsor)
- for visa 189, dapat din po nasa SOL ang nominated occupation nyo
- malaki nmn po ang chance ng 60pts for visa 189, marami na po ang nainvite lalo na kung very specific ang skill nyo at wala pang masyadong nag-aapply...
goodluck..

Btw sir, ako kasi ang nagcocollate ng mga documents ng husband ko. And we'll be processing this application on our own. Sayang kasi yun 3500aud for the agent eh nabasa ko halos kami din ang gagawa ng lahat. I may need your inputs on some details kaya sana wag kayo magsasawa sumagot sa mga questions. Thank you

- i think hindi pa rin po requirement ang IELTS sa assessment (please double check), so pwde nyo na isubmit ang TRA, then while waiting for the assessment result, pwede na magreview and exam ng IELTS
- 489 visa is Temporary valid only for 4 years, compared to visa 190 na Permanent Residence visa na, normally po i-encourage lang kmuha ng 489 kung kulang talga sa EOI points.. kasi nga 10pts ang 489 sponsorship... pero kung 60pts naman na po kayo (without relative sponsorship) eh pwede na po kayo sa visa 190 (state sponsorship).. pwede nmn kayo tumira sa relative nyo kahit na hindi sila ang sponsor nyo..
- no problem po. that is the primary purpose of this forum..

1. What does GENERAL EDUCATION mean? From gradeschool to highschool or college?
2. Qualifications obtained---dito ilalagay yun course nung college? My husband kasi has a diploma in aircraft maintenance technology. I think 2 years course lang yon. Nakalagay din kasi dun sa TOR nya na it was issued by TESDA though dun sa diploma it was conferred by CHED. Mejo na-confuse tuloy ako.
Training institute-name ng school
Name of authority that issued the qualification-TESDA or CHED?
3. What dies apprenticeship mean dun sa application form? I tried google-ing the definition pero I just want to clarify kung tama ba ang pagka-intindi ko...
Thank you again.
