Hello! We just received our 190 NSW visa. We are a family of three, with 1 6yr old kid. Plano po sana namin to do the BM on 1st week of January 2025 para masabayan po ang start ng opening ng school year. Maghahanap pa rin po kami ng bahay pagkadating. Question, ok lang po ba ang timing, or very tight po ang sched given na maghahanap pa po ng bahay, school at work? Salamat!

Should be fine if nakapag research na kayo ng suburb and schools na target nyo. Nag aaccept naman ang schools kahit nag start na ang classes (except sa private siguro na limited ang slots minsan).

Hi, we plan for our BM by March 2025 since start na po ang school noon, they accept transferees naman po kahit March na po? Thanks

Thank you po @hhm9067 & @_sebodemacho! Malaking tulong. Update ko lng for others’ info. Apparently when I checked mygov and had to go through security check question, napagalaman na May system error and kelangn bigyan ako ng panibagong medicare card. Anyway long story short, naayos na po and nakapaglodge napo ako ng tax return. Waiting for NOA is 2 weeks. Salamat po ulit 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Hello, everyone. Hoping to get some insights regarding the 190 visa granted for primary and dependent (spouse) sana... Yung primary/dependent status ay para lang ba sa Visa Application? Upon being granted a visa, may "dependency" status pa ba si dependent kay primary?

Balak na sana namin mag big move in 2025, pero mauuna sana si dependent habang nagrerender si primary sa work sa ph company. Nakapag-initial entry na kami to kind of activate the visa..... Pero hindi kami sure baka kailangang laging kasama si Primary sa pag re-enter sa Australia or dapat physically present si Primary at the time na mag re-entry si dependent.

Baka lang po merong may idea or similar experience. Thank you so much in advance!

Good day po sa lahat. Recently dumating na po ang 190 grant VIC and currently nandito pa sa pinas, planning to move in Aus by March 2025. But my current company is looking to send me to Australia for a business trip for a duration of 2 weeks in Brisbane. Need ko po ba mag first entry sa VIC dahil sa 190 ko or pede nako derecho sa Brisbane then uwe ulit pinas? Thanks in advance po sa sasagot

AFAIK walang issue sa plan nyo. Pwedeng mauna ang spouse.

You can go directly to Brisbane.

Sa mga nakapag BM na, may tips ba kayo in particular para makalambat ng reply and interview from recruiters/ companies?

Medyo matumal replies ng employers.

Hello po, my big move is next year, I am wondering po if paano ang naging process nyo po sa pera, I know pwede magopen ng bank account while still in ph weeks before the date of arrival, pero paano po nyo nalipat ang pera nyo from PH to AU bank? TIA

If you know someone trustworthy in AUS, you can transfer to them ahead of your move. Otherwise, you can use either Wise or BPI outward remittance to transfer funds when you activate your AU bank account na. Temporarily, you can also use your PH debit card during the first few days to transact since most are cashless.

Hi po @donamolar, congrats po sa new job and BM nyo! If you don’t mind pwede po malaman strategy nyo sa paghanap ng work while dito pa kayo sa pinas?
Pati po ung titirahan nyo, di po ba kayo nahirapan maghanap ng bahay dahil sa mga news is may housih crisis po sa AU.
Nasa SC189 visa lodging palang kami pero nagreready nadin sa BM. 😊
TIA.

Actually, work experience ko ay under Australian Engineering Consultancy Firms na may mga branches dito sa Pinas. So nag post lang ako sa linkedin , sending emails sa past bosses ko. Tapos ayun, nabalikan ako na hiring sila. Sa bahay naman, may free accommodation for a month then after that ako na bahalang maghanap ng bahay permanently, binigyan din ako ng relocation allowance for my expenses. Yun lang po. Sana magrant soon po kayo?

Haha. Baka himatayin ako pag ganun kabilis. Jk. Magpapamedical pa lang din po ako tomorrow. Pero if dumating before Christmas that would be great. Hihi.

Also regarding sa looking for work niyo, ang galing ang bilis.

For others na nakahanap ng work while overseas, may nakapagtry ba mag “expression of interest” for work position. I mean send email directly sa mga hiring managers?

Yes, sa linkedin madaming 3rd party recruiters. Connect with them.

Browsing real estate posting sa realestate.au compared sa Pilipinas, grabe yung hitsura ng mga rental apartments and town houses. Ganoon po ba talaga kagaganda or photogenic lang yung mga rental properties nila?

Pahingi naman po ng reality check. Also, mga nakikita ko may kasama na oven, dishwasher etc.

Iba pa din when you see in person. Minsan old pics ang nakalagay. Pagdating sa inspection, makikita mo yung details na di kita sa pics. Swerte kung ikaw ang unang tenant. Standard inclusions usually ang stove, oven and dishwasher, and aircon/heater.

Hehe, may nagawa din pala nun dyan. Nagreresearch lang po ako now kung magkano usually ang accom, para makapagbudget ng for a few months.

Nakita ko yung flatmates.com din po, may mga nagpaparent pa dun like for a few weeks lang po to months? Or much better maghanap na lang po sa fb kung saka-sakali po? Preliminary research pa lang naman po ito. Haha.

Wala pa nga grant eh. Haha. Pero I’d like to keep myself prepared po mahirap mabigla po. TIA.
