    Hi po. Nakakafrustrate po mag1month na kami dito Au wala pa din po kami work. CE po kami ng bf ko. Mostly hanap po nila yung may design background. Kaso kami po more on project supervision. Dito po kami Wollongong kasi dito po kami nakahanap ng kakilala. Any tips po. May chance pa po ba kami makahanap ng work sa future na in line samin. Nagaapply din po kami ng casual jobs kahit cleaners o helper sa ngayon para may income kahit papano. 491 po kami.

    Reach out to madam @RheaMARN1171933; she was looking a while back for recent engineering migrants. Maybe she can help.

    Please send your cv to [email protected]….we can pass your cv to a recruiter.

    Thank you po, @RheaMARN1171933 🥰

    Hi po I'm an electrical engineer po, anu po state ang madaling makatangap ng invite for Visa 190?

    It might be hard to say especially with the new FY, baka may bagong criteria sila. Best to submit EOI sa lahat ng gusto mo na States.

    Thanks po sa advice

    Hi po. Im sure naask naman na po eto before, if 491 po basta magstay lang naman po sa designated regional area regardless kung category 2 or category 3 po?

    Yung category 2 po kasi, cities and major regional centers po.

    Depende kung ano klaseng 491 Visa ang hawak mo. Check sa visa conditions just to be sure. 491 Family sponsored pwede lahat except Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne. Yung 491 State Sponsored. Pwede ka lumipat if napprove yun sulat mo na nagpaparelease ka na sa state na yun then lipat ka except Brisbane, and Melbourne

    Yes mukang ganyan nga ang mangyayari, move agad when granted. Balita ko ang mga nag ssponsor na state mas humigpit na sa pagcheck whether you actually stayed within the state, so take this into consideration kasi not following the state sponsorship rules could have negative effects on your visa later on

    Sorry I'm not the best person to answer this - hindi state sponsored ang visa ko so I never bothered to know the finer points, just the basic knowledge lang. Let's wait for others na state sponsored.

    This is a piece of saddening news for those aspirants waiting for full nomination from NT
    as some were refused full nomination to 491 pre-invites from FY23 - candidates who had already submitted declarations.
    The reason cited is the FY24 low allocation.

    This is a piece of saddening news for those aspirants waiting for full nomination from NT
    as some were refused full nomination to 491 pre-invites from FY23 - candidates who had already submitted declarations.
    The reason cited is the FY24 low allocation.

    Was this sent to you @Ozdrims ? Grabe. :(

    I just saw in another visa page ,pwede din talaga nila gawin ang ganito ,as new rules are in place for FY at generous ang FY na to grabe

    70pts is a tough playing field, you have a lot of competition in your skill, with higher points. Rule of thumb that my agent taught me is to exhaust all potential points. Strive for Superior PTE so you get additional 10pts, then try NAATI CCL exam to get 5pts. That will bring you up to a better spot at 85pts.

    Unfortunately not for the current financial year. It’s pretty tight this year. Less allocations given by the government. Victoria is even closing in January

    Hello po, my sister is going to sponsor me for 491 Family Sponsored stream.

    Since she needs to fill in the Stat Dec, sa part C po ng Visa Applicants, does she need to include my husband or expected na ako lang ang nakalagay since I am the primary applicant? Thanks in advance

    Asking for a friend po.

    Nainvite sya for** NSW 190 skilled nomination**. However, nung ipapasa na yung requirements, nakita namin na mandatory ang Employment contracts, Superannuation payments, Bank Statements.

    The problem is wala na po yung Employment Contract sa isang dating na napasukan nya. Meron lang syang contract ng company nya now pero Iba yung nakasulat sa Title and Job responsibilities vs sa Actual Employment reference nya na naassess ng ACS.

    Questions:
    1) Ok lang ba na walang maipasa na employment contract, pero merong Employment Reference, ITR, Bank Statement, Payslips?

    2) Ano po bang pwedeng maipasa for Superannuation payment document, ano equivalent na document nun sa Philippines?

    Thanks po
