For your partner, purely database administration ba ginagawa nya? Walang programming/coding? Check nyo yung Developer Programmer or Software Engineer na job code. Baka naman mag-swak either of that. Pwede yan for 189, 190 and 491.
Kasi kung nagcocode sya, pwedeng i-highlight yun dun sa employment reference na gagamitin nyo for ACS assessment para mag align sya dun sa job code.
DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

Curious question po. Meron na ba dito same sa case ko na 1 employer lang the past 10 yrs? Ano ung na supplement nyo na docs? Ung payslip pano ung 3 payslips start end at middle? Like 3 pages lang talaga? Nalilito kasi ako baka hindi ma recognize lahat ng years of experience kasi di naman ako palipat lipat. Salamat po.

Hi. I just got my IELTS result and I only got an overall band of 6.5 (L-6.5, R-7.0, W-6.0, S-7.0).
Based dun sa Visa Points Calculator sa aus immigration, I got a total of 70pts (if ma-accept ang 8yrs or work exp), if deducted ng 2yrs, 65 pts lang ang total.
**Question: Should I re-take my IELTS or may nakapag try na ba ng “re-mark” sa ielts and tumaas ang score?
Or should I push through and go to next step which is the Skills Assessment? Please pa-answer po. **

Work: Developer for 8yrs, under one company only.

Hehehe. Onga, hindi sa ano noh pero actually ung problem mostly dito e ung documentation. Im glad na na keep ko naman lahat. Last na po as an overthinker, hahaha. hindi na man mag matter na local employer lang ako? Mostly ng kakilala ko nag apply employed in multinational na companies. Tapos pano po pala ung payslips? Every year payslip ba dapat submit? Salamat po. Pasensya na. Hahahaha

Not a problem. Ang importante lang dyan ay kung legit at legal ang employer mo. Standing doesn't matter
Usually for payslips, first and last/most recent lang for each company but I think since isa lang employer mo, and mukhang na-keep mo naman lahat ng docs mo, better to provide per year. Baka may same case sayo na makasagot.

Generally walang bearing ang EOI til mainvite ka and maglodge. Kung ang EOIs mo ay for 190, just check the state reqts kasi some states need their applicants to be offshore/residing in the state (might be different nowadays). Leave it as it is for now malay mo mainvite ka agad
Malapit na magrant 476 mo. My brother who lodged back in June 2020 was granted finally a few days ago.

Just update your usual country of residence in the EOI agad agad kung sakaling lumipad ka na ng AU with 476 at wala pang invite. Kung may invite na at palipad ka ng AU, locked na yung EOI nun, so di na pede update directly, dadaan ka na sa pag submit ng change of circumstance yata yun.
Maliit na bagay yan, just keep swimming sabi ni Dory.

do you think it's wise or ok to move to a new company while starting/processing papers for migration? Hindi po ba sya red flag if ever?

Why would it be red flag? Pursuing Australia doesn’t mean you can’t carry on living your life and miss out on other opportunities.

I think ok lang yan. Nung time ko, IT ginamit ko to get the PR visa. I was working in a different industry na. I think a year or more na din. Inassess nila yung job ko na previous at hindi yung current. Basta pasok sa grace period, forgot na how long, last 5 or 10yrs pa. Ok lang yun

Hi po!
I am a Chemical Engineer and already working for 4 years in the industry and planning to move in Australia.
1.5 years sa Waste Water Treatment Operations Company (as Process Engineer)
and currenty 2.5 years sa Production Plant (as Foaming Manager).
I would like to ask sana if anong magandang i-apply na ANZSCO for EA?
Chemical Engineer or Plant Engineer?
Saan po sa dalawa ang may mas malaking chance makakuha ng VISA 189?
Thank you in advance po sa mga mag rerespond!

I think you can go with either of the 2 since they seem related naman. You can review the ANZSCO descriptions of each and see which is closest to what you are currently doing.

189 vs 190
Which one has a higher chance of approval? Field assessed by ACS.
Thanks!

You should check if your occupation can go for 189, or check which state you can apply for 190. It's not a question of 'higher chance of approval' - maggrantan ka ng visa sa either 189 or 190 pag eligible ka at nasatisfy mo points reqt. It's more of a question of what visa type you can apply with your occupation.

Hi guys, magtatanong lang po regarding sa filing ng EOI for Onshore applicants.
I have questions on 2 cases if working onshore.
Case 1. I'm working onshore (part time), and ung work ko is RELATED sa Nominated Occupation ko, pero hindi siya nasama sa Skills Assessment. Do I still have to include it in my EOI?
Case 2. I'm working onshore (part time), BUT, ung work ko is NOT RELATED sa Nominated Occupation ko. Do I have to include it in my EOI?
Salamat po in advance sa tulong.
Hoping for advise and clarifications, especially kay Ma'am @RheaMARN1171933 .
Thanks and goodluck sating lahat sa new financial year.
Thanks.

It's safe to not claim for points for that since it was not part of the the skills assessment. You could include it in the EOI, but mark as NOT relevant.

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

Hi tanong ko lang po ano pinagkaiba ng civil engineer at civil engineer technician?
Joined: Dec 18, 2021
Pwede ko rin bang hindi ko na i-include sa EOI ko ung part-time work ko (either the work is related or not related sa Nominated Occupation ko). Ok lang ba yon? May negative effect ba yun sa application ko if hindi ko i-include sa EOI ung part-time work ko?
Thanks pala sa response @_sebodemacho .
And salamat din po sa tutulong in advance.

I believe as long as 20 hours per week considered siya.

Be careful on claiming points upon EOI application na hindi related sa nominated occupation mo, baka ma overclaim points, and will create possible issue in the future. Make sure to tag it as non-related sa nominated occupation.

I actually DONT plan on claiming points for it kahit related sa nominated occupation ung part time work.
Ang question ko actually is, pwede ko bang i-exclude or hindi na isama yun sa EOI. As in, pwede ko bang hindi na i-input ung part time work na yun sa EOI, since hindi ko naman iki-claim for points yun?
Thanks again sa mga response. Hoping to get clarity on this. Salamat.
