  Usually visa lodgement cost around 3k$+ check the immi website for the exact amount depending on visa subclass you'll apply. You need to pay for medical and afp check too maybe around 200$? If you'll hire a migration agent then you need to pay them between 3k$ to 5k$.

  I will now apply for Permanent Residency from 457 Visa, I wonder how much will it cost? Anyone? Thank You.

  Ang fee mga 3k na by July this year. from 457 to PR kailangan yung employer mo ang mag sponsor syo. Kahit di mo na kailangan ng Agent. Mag basa ka lang sa immi.gov.au.
  Good luck

  Thank you so much for the comments. I must apply for it before my IELTS expires and also, I will apply before July. Also much better to get an agent because I have no time to process all the papers here and there. Thanks

  may side question ako in regards to this.. if you have your PR visa, how will going home in the philippines affect in the long term case?
  
  may mga family circumstances na kilangan uwi-an eh. long story.
  
  we have plans kasi on going back to cebu after our PR and there is an opportunity for me to do short term contracts here in AU on a locum basis for 10 weeks or longer. but our main base will be pinas na. i am just doing the locum position just to keep my license active in au until the family issue will be sorted effectively.
  
  so every year while on the PR visa.. 10 weeks or whatever lang ako as the primary applicant in au. but my husband and daugther will come and go lang on a shorter term (vacation like basis).
  
  is that ok? i do not mind na matagal maging citizen or whatever. my concern is just keeping the PR.
  
  thanks:)

  - PR visa has validity of 5 years, after 5 years hindi kana pwede pumasok ng Australia
  - unless kukuha ka ng panibagong visa called RRV- Return Resident Visa.. panibagong application/fee na nmn ito..
  - Effect sa citizenship: yes may effect, kasi hindi nyo masasatisfy ang residency requirement kung 10wks per year lang kayo nasa AU..

  Ok thanks;) i dont mind at least we have a couple years to sort that out:) i will worry about the rrv after 5 yrs then and later na for the citizenship:) im more concern about keeping my rn license in au kasi every year registration rules changes hence i need continuing practice here in au whereas the p.r. Status if like u said gives us 5 yrs...then that is more than enough time to sort out what we need to do.
  
  Thanks again.. At least may silver lining to look forward to:)
