Seeking for advice/help

jlc · December 2023

Hello po sa inyong lahat. Bago lang po ako sa forum and bago lang ako nakagamit ng ganito so paumanhin po kung meron man ako masasabi na hindi maganda/appropriate.

I’m an industrial engineer with 10 years of working experience(operator,supervisor/coordinator,manager,maintenance engineer). Nagaapply po ako para sa visa 189/190. Hingi lang po ako ng insights para sa cdr para sa EA kasi po parang un ang first step. Nagsearch po ako online pero mostly nakikita ko ay may bayad. Also, tama ba ginagawa ko na magDIY na lang para sa visa 189/190 kesa kumuha ako ng agent? Kumuha na din ako ng PTE exam pero 64 points lang nakuha ko with no less than 50 points in all bands. Okay lang ba un? Wala pa talaga ako nagagawa sa application ko except ung english exam. Your inputs will be highly appreciated.

Kayang kaya po ang DIY pero need lang magbasa nang maigi to avoid mistakes sa application. May thread din dito na merong step by step nung process. If for skill assessment po kay EA, you can use na po yung 62 na score for the mean time tapos retake na lang pag mas ready na para makaclaim ka nang mas mataas na points.

Thanks po sa comment. Un po ang worry ko although kaya naman taasan pero I don’t think na kaya ko makuha ung mataas na points which is 79 points pataas and ung exam fee ay medyo malaki. As per agent, kelangan ko magretake pero pwede din naman daw na hindi pero mas magtatagal ang process.

mas mabuti po sigurong unahin nyo muna yung skills assessment. saka nyo na po isipin ulit yung PTE. pag may skills assessment na po kayo, pwede na kayo mag submit ng EOI, total may PTE result na din naman po kayo. tapos saka nyo po pataasin yung score nyo sa exam. para po di kayo malito at maoverwhelm, lalo na kung plano nyo po mag DIY.

pareho pong mahal yung dalawang requirements (skills assesment at english exam). kung tight budget po, kailangan nyo po talagang basahin bawat sulok ng tungkol sa visa/migration

pwede mong simulan sa pagbabasa ng mga thread dito (yung nasa kanan, dyan), makakakuha ka ng maraming idea kung ano ano yung mga kailangan mo malaman. syempre sabayan mo na din ng sariling research. at pagbasa sa website mismo ng home of affairs. kasi ayun nga, pabago bago ang rules sa migration. pag may tanong ka, tanong ka lang dito. o di kaya, search mo dun sa search button sa taas.

@RheaMARN1171933 Hello po, would like to seek an advice po. I just submitted my docs for skills/employment assessment to CPA AU. With the average processing time, it might take 3-4mos before I get the result. By that time, I would already be married. Is it advisable to process po muna yung mga marriage certificate, then name/status change sa mga IDs particularly sa passport, before I lodge EOI? I am also planning to do another PTE Exam, so I'd like to ask po if I will wait na mapalitan ung surname name ko sa passport muna before I can book for PTE para yung new name na po ang mag-appear sa score report? Thank you so much po sa mga insights! 🤗

No need. The marriage certificate will prove the name change. Not all women change their surnames after marriage so don’t worry too much about it.

Thank you po. If I will lodge na po ang EOI, then will it still be my maiden name instead l, tapos lodge as married or yung new surname na po?
