    Thats great offer. Ask mo sa employer kung sagot nila ang private health insurance at ito pa ang pinaka importante kung willing ka nila sponsor ng Permanent resident visa after one or two years... Goodluck

    Thats great, ask mo agad kung willing sila sponsor ka for PR after a year. Kung okay ang salary offer kunin mo na. Baka maghigpit na ang 457 visa this year, news link below:

    Sarap naman ng $5k, libre na yan bro ha! Hindi mo mauubos $5k kahit business class pa lipad mo, haha!

    By the way, same company ba ang 2years consecutive? It would be good to ask if they will be willing to sponsor you for PR @RodGanteJr. You said 2 yrs bigay sayo DIAC? In that 2 years, I reckon you should be able to assess na if they can help you with permanency.

    @kim in my case kasama na sa visa application ang family ko. Isang bayaran lang for one application. On a 457 visa wala akong binayaran dahil sagot ng company yung mga fees.

    Hi sa lahat. Di ko kasi alam ang process sa 457 visa. Tapos na yung interview ko last June 20 and had a job offer that same day. I signed the employment contract already. Naemail ko na din sa kanila. Malinaw na rin naman sa akin yung relocation allowance na ibibigay nila sa akin at sa pamilya ko.Di nga lang kasing taas nung kay sir Rod. hehe. Sabi ng HR ng university, they will lodge the application before July 1.

    After nun, ano na gagawin ko? I have the documents, clearance etc with me. So after nun, tsaka pa lang kami magpapamedical ng pamilya ko? Maraming Salamat !!

    Hi Guys,

    Need your help. I already signed the contract. But the problem is with regards to financing the visa application and agent's fee. Sabi nung employer, they will shoulder only part of it (actually hindi pa sya 50% of the total cost). The I told him that as per our conversation. he mentioned that the employer will shoulder the cost as stated by law. Need lang po ideas regarding sa charges and fees kc it seems like hndi maganda yung ganitong situation.

    continuation... Actually, sabi ni employer seek advise dun sa agent na minention nya. Then sabi ni agent, negotiate the fees and charges with the employer. So parang pinagpapasa-pasahan nila ung topic for fees. Please help me with this guys. Thanks!

    @marc_chrono..Depende sa employer kng minsan yan.. kasi same sa dad ko, 457 visa din sya employer nya lahat nagbyad, from sponsorship, nomination, visa application, agents, and plane tickets and kahit accomodation nya ay provided. Pro sa kuya ko namn, 457 din sya. D na sila kumuha ng agent.. Ang binayaran lg ng employer nya ay ang sponsorship and nomination fee lg which is sa kanila namn talaga yan. Pro ang visa application fee kuya q na ang nagbayad.

    @marc_chrono Ano po ba na part ang pinababayaran ng employer sayo? nasa iyo na din kasi ang decision kung itutuloy mo ba yung application kung ayaw talaga sagutin ng employer lahat fees. Kung in-demand naman talaga profession mo at sigurado ka marimi pang employer na iba mag hire sayo, then you can look for another employer na sasagot ng lahat fees. Pero kung hindi gaano ka in-demand yung profession mo, then you need to decide if you are willing to shoulder some of the cost kung gusto mo talaga makarating ng OZ. Normally pag 457 visa sagot ng employer lahat kagaya sa amin sagot nila lahat. Married ka ba? baka yung hindi sasagutin ng employer ay yung application fee ng family mo (kasi due to the changes per person na ang fee hindi kagaya noon na flat rate ang fee kahit ilang tao ang included sa application which is very costly for the employer kung kasama ang family) So check mo muna ano ba yung pinababayaran sa iyo.

    Kung ang sasagutin lang ng employer ay yung sponsorship and nomination charges. Then your other option is to lodged your visa application by yourself without a migration agent once na approve na ang nomination (kung ayaw mo magbayad sa migration agent). Kung confident ka naman maglodge by yourself then pwede yun na option mo para visa application fee nalang bayaran mo pero kung hindi ka confident maglodge by yourself then you will have to pay the migration agent kung hindi sasagutin ng employer

    ipa specify mo muna sa employer kung anong specific part yung sasagutin nila pero base sa sinasabi mo parang sponsorship and nomination part lang sasagutin nila

    kung sasabihin ng employer ikaw magbayad ng agent's fee, tanong mo magkano ang agent's fee kasi agent naman nila yun

    apc its a small price to pay for employers its like they are going to save maybe 50k or more, to give you an example yung mga contractual dito sumasahod ng 120K annually .. makakakuha sila ng employee overseas mga 70-80k lang na sahod .. kung gumastos sila ng 10k pag pprocess ng visa ok lang ...

    Strict na po yung DIAC ngayon. dapat equivalent terms and working conditions na ang Citizens and 457 visa holders. ung ano sweldo. Dapat kung ano salary offer ng employer sa citizens working the same position dapat yundin ang sa 457 visa holders. kaya yung employer namin napilitan talaga gawing same yung sweldo ng mga employees niya na citizens at yung mga 457 visa holders niya. kung hindi ganito ang nangyayari sa workplace niyo then hindi sinusunod ng employer ang sponsorship obligations nila. May mga employers talaga na hindi sumusunod pero pagnahuli sila ng DIAC, malaki penalty nila. kami nga pumunta yung DIAC last year sa workplace namin nag check. kaya naghihigpit yung DIAC ngayon sa processing ng 457 dahil maraming pasaway na employers. Ang 457 is for genuine skills shortage at hindi para makatipid ang employer sa sweldo.

    Mas malaki talaga sweldo ng contractual per hour compared sa full time kasi wala naman benefits yung contractual like mga leaves...bale no work, no pay yan sila.

    @Howard

    yup. kailangan ng nbi, SG police clearance kung nasa SG ka ngayon. YUng medical madali lang naman kasi X ray lang required. May fill up ka lang na form re your health din. I uploaded birth certificate, marriage contract, photocopy ng info page ng passport, employment certificate (from previous employer), proof of trainings, TORs, picture, proof of health insurance (certification from BUPA), employment contract and employment offer. Kung may letter ka regarding approval of nomination, isama mo na din. Pina certified true copy ko lahat bago ko upload. Pati CV pala kasama. Pag may naalala pa ako, message kita.
