hello Guys,

I was recently granted my 491 for Northern Territory.

arrive by 06 February 2025

Must not arrive after 06 February 2029

For first entry, arrive by 06 February 2025
Does it mean that I really need to enter by 06 February 2025 or this is just the start date validity of my entry?

Must not arrive after 06 February 2029
My understanding is, I don't really have to arrive on the 6th of Feb, I can enter anytime between 06 February 2025 to 06 February 2029.

I am also concerned about the availability of Jobs for Network Engineers in Darwin.

Thank you in advance for your insights.

AFAIK your first entry should be made before Feb 2025. It doesn't have to be a long stay initially.

Thank you.
Are there any repercussions if I don't do the initial before that date?

Not sure, I don't know anyone who tried doing it unfortunately. Possibly ma deny ang entry or macancel ang visa?

Hi po! Regarding po sa Proof of Employment for Visa Application, how strict po sila sa list of duties/tasks? Kailangan po ba match na match sa ANZSCO?
For context, Civil Engineer po ako and Assistant Quantity Surveyor ang first job ko then QS ang second job. Under same unit group po ang Quantity Surveyor and Civil Engineer, however hindi po ako sigurado kung Assistant QS ay closely related din po dahil baka "assistant" job po sya iconsider. Pwede ko po kaya itag as relevant ito?

EA/DoHA will not focus on titles but on the relevance of your duties and responsibilities in your nominated occupation.
No way to match all as per ANZSCO description as CE is broad.
Instead EA / DoHA will assess on the evidence presented aligning to PE core competencies.

1. Any idea po kung magko close this January 2024 yung VIC EOI?

For this year, when is the best time to apply for a state nomination from VIC?

I'm worried na masaraduhan sa invitation sa 190 sa VIC.

I'm currently living in Victoria for almost 2 years.

Actually, I got my positive skills assessment from aitsl na,
pero waiting pa rin po sa Skilled Employment Statement (SES) from AITSL.
I am a Secondary Mathematics Teacher po, with more than 5 years work experience,
so nasa ANZCO 241411 po occupation ko.

Thank you so much po sa sasagot.. God bless..

1) Base sa remaining allocations looks like not closing sooner they still have about 1k nominations for the remaining FY
2) Best time is now ,time is gold
3) Worry will not get you invited ,applying and trying lang po , make the most out of it since your onshore
4) Skills Assessment is positive then you can claim points for education , SES is optional in case of VIC you can still provide that later on for work experience
5) Your occupation is in priority so expect invites are favorable ,but again ask more questions sa isang thread dito , Filipino Teachers in Australia?

Do you mean po, pwede na ako mag apply ng visa 190 kahit di ko pa po nareceive yung SES from AITSL?
I thought kasi para ma-count yung points ko sa work experience, need ko i-provide yung SES...

Kindly enlighten me on this...Thank you in advance..

Yes you can lodge an EOI already

Is similar in nature for other occupations
is optional to get your employment experience assessed , it does not stop you fr submitting an EOI

Will only work if your certain that your experience is relevant to the occupation.

Hi po, question lang..mahirap po ba makareceive ng ITA from QLD? My EOI was lodged Nov'23 for 189 and 190 QLD but until now, I haven't received an invitation yet. I'm an Industrial Engineer by profession. Medyo nkakainip lang maghintay esp when I read that some already received their ITAs. Thanks po.

Points breakdown please. Meron na nainvite dito pero 491 QLD yata.

For your reference ito yung eligibility for their 190. For Industrial Engineers, QLD requires at least 4 years post-qualification full-time work experience.

With the current allocations (very less compared to last financial year), medyo mag wait po kayo and expect na the higher points you have, more chances of invite. You may consider 491 din po.

Are you onshore or offshore? , the chances are there the higher your points as mentioned above.
If offshore increase your probability by applying for other states too.

Hello mga ka ex-Accenture, ask ko lang if ok na ba yung pinrovide nila na Non-Standard COE with Job description? Nakakuha rin kasi ako, pero wala nakalagay na full-time basis of XX hours per week. Wala rin sinama na salary per year. Wala rin pirma ng HR. Tatanggapin kaya to ng ACS?

Hindi na ako kumuha nung reference from previous managers dahil need pala ng COE din nila?

Hello, ask ko lang if meron dito na nagpa-assess sa 2 occupation sa ACS.

Question lang - did you use same documents to submit?

I submitted for Business Analyst and im planning to submit for Software Engineer. Wondering if constraint na sa documents na pinasa for Business Analyst? For my case kasi madali lang magpa-approve ng roles and responsibilities for COE.

Hope someone can share experience.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Need mo lang COE ni Manager to support yung Statutory Declaration. Of COE with all the details na required, no need na.

Thank you. Medyo hassle kasi ata pagkuha ng COE ng managers ko, kaya pinilit ko nalang sa HR na yung non-standard COE nalang. pero walang pirma at name ng HR. bali email lang ng HR ng company department.

Good as signed na yon pagka merong letterhead ni company at yung contact details for verification. Yun na lang ibang details ang ipa-add mo kasi required talaga nila malaman na fulltime work yon at kung how many hours per week.

Mahirap talaga sa managers kasi meron sila hesitation madalas kasi effort sa end nila yon, unlike sa HRs na part talaga ng work nila na mag issue ng employment references.

Onshore po application ko for 190. Need ba dapat may work ako para mainvite?

cn08 · March 4

Ask ko lang yung sa pag-upload ng PDF as evidences, for example sa Experience & Payment Evidence Documents, dapat ba hiwa-hiwalay na PDF for bank statement (employment start), bank statement (employment end), payslip (start and end), tax records (start and end), or dapat basta tungol sa salary ng isang company, isang PDF file nalang lahat yan? thank you.

Generally yes they prefer nagwowork ka na but not all states require it

Saan po ito sa nomination ba? Sa inapplyan ko i upload separately dahil clear naman sila sa mga drop down list on each section what they need you to upload , if the same document type you can upload a combined file e.g. bank statement , salary slip , ITRs etc.

You can check further in detail yung requirements for onshore applicants , if your in VIC , you are still eligible to launch an ROI but as you mentioned if the employment is not a skill level 1-3 , you won't be able to score on the salary criterion.
