Question po, pwede pa ma refused yung visa 491 kung nag request ka ng refund? Ganito po kasi yung situation namin, nainvite kami ng 189. Plan to apply for 189 pero bago yan triny muna namin mag request ng refund for visa 491 pero hindi namin winithdraw yung 491 visa application. Halimbawa po kayang ma refused yung refund, automatic cancel na din po ba yung 491 visa application namin?

@ChiliGarlicSauce @aev3rd , hello po. Received an ITA from WA for 491 last October 22, 2022. Dun sa email, merong link na Start My Application and niredirect ako sa WA Migration website. Natapos ko naman po magfill-out and mag-attach ng docs, nasubmit ko din naman agad. Meaning po ba nun na lodged na ako sa 491? Hindi na po ba yun dadaan sa SkillSelect or Immi Account?

Hi. Thank you for your insights, very much appreciated. We called AU immigration several times din po to get their advice. And yes, they said we can lodge 189 and keep both visa applications running at the same time and whichever is granted last will take effect.
Joined: May 21, 2020
Gumamit po ba kayo ng same email to apply both visa? Kasi when we tried our 189 ayaw mag proceed kasi may ongoing pa daw kaming visa application which is 491 nga. And withdraw daw muna yung 491 bago makapag lodge ng 189.
Joined: May 21, 2020
Ang alam ko po dito ay pre-invitation po ang natanggap niyo from WA. Need po muna ma approved ni WA ang application for state nomination bago kayo makapag lodge ng visa application sa Immi account.
Joined: May 19, 2022
Hi. Yung 491 namin ay kay Misis na application. Yung 189 naman ay sa akin, so magkaiba po talaga yung email namin. Nung nag-fill out ako para sa 189 visa lodging namin, may nag prompt din na may pending appplication pa nga daw kami/ako, tapos need nga daw i-withdraw, pero naka proceed naman po ako. As of now, nakalodge yung both visa namin.

Hello po, ma'am/sir, question lang po. Sa EOI ko po kasi 2 employers nilagay ko, sa 1st naka 3yrs po ako at sa 2nd naman ay 1yr pa lang po ako, kaya sa paglodge ko po eh mas nagcclaim po ako ng pts sa 1st employer ko po at na declare ko naman po na not claiming sa 2nd sa finillout'an upon lodge, need ko pa rin po ba mag provide ng evidence sa 2nd employer ko? Thank you po.

fee 4,240 aud + .014*(4,240)(Mastercard/Visa Card). Baka kasi magrant ang 491 bago 189. Kaya better withdraw.
https://www.ozzievisa.com/skilled-regional-subclass-191-visa/
*385 aud s subject to annual increase per financial year.
So kung 491 withdraw and apply 189, assuming magisa ka lang ha.
Ito ang gastos mo (4,240 * 2)+ (0.014 * 4,240 x 2) = 8,598.72 aud
if Go for 491, then apply ka ng 191 for 1 year.
(4,240 + 385) + 0.014(4,240 + 385) = 4,689.75 aud

Nilagay ko lang link kasi wala pa sa DHA, most likely nauuna ang registered migration agencies na makakuha ng details sa DHA bago nila ipost sa official website. Pero siyempre hintayin nating ang official coming from DHA. Since malapit na ang November 2022, possible na yan ang lalabas.

Someone from FB posted their 190 visa grant after almost 2 months of waiting. But mostly 3months may movement na based sa mga post nila this year 2022. After 3months, either they received an s56 (request for add'l requirement) or a direct visa grant already. Sana nga meron na in 3 months time. For 189 naman, mostly 1.5months to 2months especially nasa medical field. Again, this is what I saw from FB posts and not my personal experience. But it's best is to wait based on the posted timeline sa immi which is minimum of 3months and max of 11 months for 190.
