    Hello guys, san niyo inattach yung Form 80? Wala kasi sa page ko yung Other Documents na section. Gusto ko sana i-attach na para di na macontact ng CO if ever.TIA!

    Pwede sya under Character History

    Hi @whimpee, couple of questions po:

    • ganyan po ba ang ginawa nyo sa Form 80 nyo?
    • did you enumerate talaga lahat ng countries na napuntahan and addresses na tinirahan sa Form 80 nyo po? Nakakapanlumo eh :/

    yes. tyagain lang po talaga, mas marami talaga requirements kapag ITA. Konti na lang po yan matatapos rin yan at darating na po kayo sa waiting game :)

    Hi @whimpee, couple of questions po:

    • ganyan po ba ang ginawa nyo sa Form 80 nyo?
    • did you enumerate talaga lahat ng countries na napuntahan and addresses na tinirahan sa Form 80 nyo po? Nakakapanlumo eh :/

    I submitted Form 80 after lodging so I uploaded under Other Documents. Yes we enumerated to the best of our knowledge especially travel history. I checked all departure stamps in our passport.

    Hi @luidmanahan, @whimpee, thanks sa responses nyo. Eto iniisa-isa ko na mga departure/arrival stamps sa passport :s. Yung addresses medyo tantyahan nalang siguro. I'll update this thread kung makakalusot ito.

    I suppose dapat match ang address and travel history ng Form 80 dun sa online lodgement form, tama po ba? So i can't submit my online lodgement pa rin until i finish this Form 80 :/. Hindi ko pa mahanap yung iba kong lumang passport :|.

    Also just enumerate travels for the last 10 years, no need na yung beyond that. Need talaga isa-isahin mga stamps, pinagdaanan ko rin yan, pero laban lang! I suggest doing it sa isang Excel sheet or note it somewhere, para in case need mo ulit sa future ay may listahan ka na.

    Hi everyone. Related sa Form 80, declaring travel history for the past 10 years. Hindi na mahanap yung old passports ko. So ang travel records ko lang is until 2016. I really hope na hindi ako hanapan ng Form 80 but just to be thorough, hahanap ako ng karamay lol.

    • Has anyone else faced the same issue?
    • Kelangan ba pagawan ng police report yung lost passports and submit said police reports in lieu of?
    • Anong document po ang kailangan iproduce to support na until 2016 lang ang travel history ko?

    Salamat sa magbibigay ng insights.

    Reposting this here baka sakaling may makasagot. Salamat.

    Question po: lumipat ako ng work after marelease yung TRA assessment ko, so my current employment is not included sa assessment. Can I claim for points for my current employment sa online lodgement (question 17/20)? Related pa rin naman yung current na trabaho ko sa linya ko.

    More than 10 years pa rin naman yung related experience ko kung hindi isasama itong current work ko. Ok lang kaya kung hindi ko na iclaim? Baka kasi irequire pa ako magpa-assess ulit. Anyone with the same issue?
    Thank you sa makakapag-advise.

    Stick to your assessment result. Kung wala yung current employment mo dun, then dont count it as relevant in the EOI.

    Mas mahirap ang mag overclaim ng points. :)

    kelan po kaya next invite ng 189?

    i have a very very minor dilemma, i already have 190 VIC ITA [sobrang bilis nila mag invite actually, thank you Lord] and currently lodging. Yung prefer ko kasing work ay nasa SYD. Other than that, wala namang issue with VIC, yung work opportunity and getting tied up for min. 2yrs lang tlga ang concern ko

    considering to apply 190 NSW EOI din, baka sakali

    Pareho tayo, pero parang walang news kelan ang 189. Kunin mo na yan, dahil mabilis din invite ko sa VIC, pero weird wala sa NSW. Suggest ko to set a timeline kung kelan mo sesentensiyahan, kasi mahirap mag decide pag may halo ng emosyon hehe. 190 is also not bad.

    Tama yan. naka-alarm na sa phone ko yung sentensya, 2 days before the deadline lol. NBI nalang sa Pinas ang kulang ko.

    190 is never bad haha.

    Maganda yung planong sentesyahan before the ITA expiry. Kung mas gusto talaga ang NSW, go for it. Malay mo mainvite pa rin. Submit one EOI for 189 as well. Kasi we never know baka bigla sila mag invite before the FY ends.

    Pero for 190 NSW, check with the others here, or do some research kung merong declaration na required ang NSW para sa previous invites received. Kasi kung meron, that means posibleng i-consider nila yan sa decision to not give you a final invitation in the end. So masasayang yung effort and time mo ng paghihintay na imbes nakapag lodge ka na ng visa with VIC at nag asikaso ng next steps like medical and PCC.

    Note: May bayad ang NSW nomination, mga 10/15k din yata yun 😁 Di ko lang matandaan if may declaration ba akong ginawa nung nomination process with NSW.

    I submitted ROI on a sunday night (March), then meron nang VIC 190 invitation round on a Tuesday. Luckily me and my partner were both invited. From NSW, wala. So..... Swertihan din talaga, ang mahalaga do everything that you can do to get the max points achievable.

    Question pala ulit guys, may isang part-time work ako na not relevant sa skills ko, hindi ko siya ininclude during skills assessment, wala rin sa EOI..Dapat ba isama ko siya sa pag-lodge kahit not relevant and sa Form 80? Baka lang kasi isipin ni CO na inconsistent, 10 years ago na rin kasi yung experience ko dun.

    Since part-time work sya, self-employment/contractual ba yun or employee ka talaga? May ganyan din ako, part-time work pero self-employed ang setup. Wala akong official documents to back it up since through staffing agency ko yun nakuha. I did not include it sa work experience. If wala kang official documents, might be best to leave it out.

    Hello guys, san niyo inattach yung Form 80? Wala kasi sa page ko yung Other Documents na section. Gusto ko sana i-attach na para di na macontact ng CO if ever.TIA!

    Pwede sya under Character History

    Thank you @whimpee. :smile:
    May nabasa rin pala ako na after visa payment pala lalabas din yung Other Documents na section @d_b.

    Question pala ulit guys, may isang part-time work ako na not relevant sa skills ko, hindi ko siya ininclude during skills assessment, wala rin sa EOI..Dapat ba isama ko siya sa pag-lodge kahit not relevant and sa Form 80? Baka lang kasi isipin ni CO na inconsistent, 10 years ago na rin kasi yung experience ko dun.

    Since part-time work sya, self-employment/contractual ba yun or employee ka talaga? May ganyan din ako, part-time work pero self-employed ang setup. Wala akong official documents to back it up since through staffing agency ko yun nakuha. I did not include it sa work experience. If wala kang official documents, might be best to leave it out.

    Hi @era222, employee ako dun pero mahihirapan nga ako i-gather yung documents (payslip, tax document etc. ) though hindi ko naman na-tag as relevant skill baka lang din hanapin ng CO if ever. Thanks din sa input mo. :smile:

    Oh ayan, baka nga hindi na need? Yung sakin kasi ganun and ang in-advise ng agent ko ay wag na ilagay since wala akong documents din. Di ko rin sya sinasa sa skills assessment dahil unrelated sya sa nominated occupation. Good luck!!

    Pareho tayo, pero parang walang news kelan ang 189. Kunin mo na yan, dahil mabilis din invite ko sa VIC, pero weird wala sa NSW. Suggest ko to set a timeline kung kelan mo sesentensiyahan, kasi mahirap mag decide pag may halo ng emosyon hehe. 190 is also not bad.

    Yep, will likely maximize the 60days & will lodge application near deadline. Near end of June 2023

    RE:skilled employment from assessment body, meron po ako covering until Dec2020.
    So after Dec2020 until now, i have 2 add'l employers:
    (1) Overseas employer na included sa last assessment
    (2) New overseas employer
    (3) Australian employer (current)

    All 3 po, i claimed as relevant work experience in my EOIs

    Need ko pa po bang ipa-update ung skilled employment assessment with my employer until date? Or can i just submit employer certificate, employer contract & payslips nung (2) and (3) without being certified? [baka sakaling maka-save sa cost]. Thanks

    Basehan ng DHA ang skills assessment. You are putting yourself in a risk of overclaiming points kung ni-claim mo pati yung hindi kasama sa assessment.

    Mas ok na mag submit ka ulit ng bagong skills assessment para siguardo kang claimable yung latter 2 or 3 career episodes mo.

    I'm curious, ni-claim mo ba yan for VIC where you got an ITA? Kung oo, medyo risky yan kung itutuloy mo yung visa application later on kahit ni-approve ng state kasi DHA pa rin ang may final say dyan.

    DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

    Hello Fellow 491 peeps.

    Ask ko lang po baka meron na naka experienced sa inyo po na while in Visa 491, un work is hybrid which is for example yung project is based sa ibang state but allowed to work from home for example sa Adelaide SA. Magiging issue po ba yan pagdating sa application sa 191? Thanks po sa makakasagot.

    Pag nag lodge ng Visa, you will need to provide all employment history from birth to present.

    Hello, curious lang ako dito, eto ba yong sa form 80? Or my specific talaga na section sa application ng visa 190 ? Pag kakatanda ko kase yong last 10 years lang ng employment ilalagay. Pero sa form 80 lahat from birth to present.

    kelan po kaya next invite ng 189?

    i have a very very minor dilemma, i already have 190 VIC ITA [sobrang bilis nila mag invite actually, thank you Lord] and currently lodging. Yung prefer ko kasing work ay nasa SYD. Other than that, wala namang issue with VIC, yung work opportunity and getting tied up for min. 2yrs lang tlga ang concern ko

    considering to apply 190 NSW EOI din, baka sakali

    Little to no chance na ng 189 round this FY, since yung currently lodged visas is more than enough na sa quota ng 189 for the year. Most likely next FY na yung 189 rounds (based din sa isang FB group). Yung 190 is most likely may rounds pa din every month. And yes, apply for NSW 190 too, mabilis din naman sila mag invite.

    Based sa recent update ni Karl Konrad, parang half lang or something ng invites ang naging actual visa app lodgments for 189 (10:30 sa video). Figures say there should be another one but then again maski itong agent doesn't know for sure: So who knows!

    kelan po kaya next invite ng 189?

    i have a very very minor dilemma, i already have 190 VIC ITA [sobrang bilis nila mag invite actually, thank you Lord] and currently lodging. Yung prefer ko kasing work ay nasa SYD. Other than that, wala namang issue with VIC, yung work opportunity and getting tied up for min. 2yrs lang tlga ang concern ko

    considering to apply 190 NSW EOI din, baka sakali

    Little to no chance na ng 189 round this FY, since yung currently lodged visas is more than enough na sa quota ng 189 for the year. Most likely next FY na yung 189 rounds (based din sa isang FB group). Yung 190 is most likely may rounds pa din every month. And yes, apply for NWS 190 too, mabilis din naman sila mag invite.

    Based sa recent update ni Karl Konrad, parang half lang or something ng invites ang naging actual visa app lodgments for 189: So who knows!

    Malaking number ng invites ang nasayang kasi expired ang docs ng mga tao last time. Wala kasing nakapredict na magiinvite sila ng ganun karami last year e, a good number ng mga EOIs na nainvite ay from 2020 pa. I think hindi basehan ang number of lodgements sa invite quotas, basta naabot na nila ung allocated number of invites yun na yun - regardless kung lahat naglodge o hindi.

    I got a 190 pre-invite a month ago. I submitted all the docs the after a week invited na ako to lodge the 190 visa.

    I’ve been gathering docs such as NBI, Birth Cert and secured PH bank statements and payslips as well. During this time lumipat ako ng tinitirahang bahay. Hindi pa ako nakakapag-lodge, may need ba akong gawin dun sa EOI ko which is old address pa, or hindi na mag mmatter yun basta lagay ko lang updated sa actual 190 lodging ko?

    Hindi ko sure kung same ng gagawin kung before lodged. Pero kami we changed address after visa lodgement. So I > @duntess said:

    Hello guys, san niyo inattach yung Form 80? Wala kasi sa page ko yung Other Documents na section. Gusto ko sana i-attach na para di na macontact ng CO if ever.TIA!

    Pwede sya under Character History

    Thank you @whimpee. :smile:
    May nabasa rin pala ako na after visa payment pala lalabas din yung Other Documents na section @d_b.

    Question pala ulit guys, may isang part-time work ako na not relevant sa skills ko, hindi ko siya ininclude during skills assessment, wala rin sa EOI..Dapat ba isama ko siya sa pag-lodge kahit not relevant and sa Form 80? Baka lang kasi isipin ni CO na inconsistent, 10 years ago na rin kasi yung experience ko dun.

    Pag nag lodge ng Visa, you will need to provide all employment history from birth to present.

    Hello, curious lang ako dito, eto ba yong sa form 80? Or my specific talaga na section sa application ng visa 190 ? Pag kakatanda ko kase yong last 10 years lang ng employment ilalagay. Pero sa form 80 lahat from birth to present.

    Form 80 ask for employment from birth to present. Ung 10 years ay probably sa residence amd travel history

    Yung work restriction lang is that the location has to be in a designated regional area.
