@Julz hi po madami pa po waiting from oct and nov batch 2022 din po, bumagal po ang pag grant.. 🙁

Thanks sa reply, pero yun iba I can see na my CO contact na cla after a few months. Meron dn ba na matagal mgka CO?

For your reference,,

I got CO contact 5 months after my lodgement date . And today, 3 months have already passed since I responded to CO. Imagine the stress na meron ako. Already waiting for 8months. . But need to go with the flow. I've seen someone na same lodgement date at co contact date namin na nagrant last week. May nagrant din ng same lodgment date ko at same occupation (non-priority) same last week, Kaya napaisip ako baka this week mgrant na. But who knows.. Darating din yan. Tiwala lang tayo. At di ka nag-iisa

Same here po 😅 more than 4 months na since magka last CO contact, wala pa ding update until now.

Nakita ko nga din to sa group, Feb lodged na siya. Medyo nawiwindang lang ako kasi wala talagang pattern haha! Inuuna ba nila may partner or family, depende ba sa skills or what. Meron din isa pa na Feb lodged na CE naman. Hays, kainip maghintay hahahhaa! Congrats po kung nandito man sila. 😊

DreamerG · July 2023

Grants are giving randomly cguro din depends sa need ng states at overall as a country, with partner is one factor lalo na yung may skill assessment since they grant 2 skilled in one go.. Hope all will get grants na soon sa mga nag lodge this FY :-)

aldrichdehay · July 2023

The best we can do while waiting is to hope and pray that ours will also be granted soon

I just got a call from my agent to deliver the news that my SA 491 visa is granted!! Was to speechless to say other words aside from thank you and opo and cried like a kid after the call

Now waiting for my agent to forward the email. Until I receive the mail, dun lang siguro ako mapapanatag. :lol baka kasi I am dreaming and this is all imagination brought by waiting for the result!😂

My journey is not easy pero so happy that it turns out well finally 🙏

From 2019 - 2023

2019: MSA Approved
2019: EOI Initial Lodge
2021: EOI re-lodged since nagexpire na 😅

same yr took my PTE that finally gave me the max point 🙏
2022: - Dec 8 invite received. yey! then I realized, expire na ung Skill Assessment ko so I renewed it before maglodge ng VISA. I paid around Php5k for the renewal.

Sharing this so others will also know that it's not always easy.. pero push lang baka maging successful din in the end. 🙏

Sol_Au · July 2023

It's now official, got the email na

Visa: SA 491
Nominated Occupation: Software Engineer
Offshore
Single applicant

February 2019: started everything - research, got myself an agent as I told myself na if I will finish this journey, I have to do it right para no regrets. Also, states/regions are not open for offshore applicants rin during this time.

2020 - 2021: Pandemic happened - everything was on full stop
2022: AU slowly opening and had to take another assessment and PTE as they already expired.
January 2023: Invited, applied for and received SA 491 nomination, lodged 491 visa
July 19, 2023: Received the grant letter

It was indeed not an easy journey. I was starting to lose hope na rin to be honest but glad I did not give up.

This forum has helped me a lot during the early stages and now as I prepare for the big move. I may have also interacted with some using my old accounts (not able to retrieve/reset password :sad). So, thank you for sharing what you know

Congratulations in advance to those who will be receiving their grants in the coming days (advance ako mag-isip)!
