    Magandang umaga mga Kababayan!

    Pwede po bang magpatulong re:health insurance for 457 visa. Saang insurance company po kayo nag-avail o dapat po bang i-shoulder 'yon ng employer? Maraming salamat!

    @LouieAngeles57 Depende sa contract nyo kung sasagutin ng employer yung insurance nyo. Sa case ko, hindi kasama kaya ako naghanap. BUPA yung sa akin. Siguraduhin mo na may kasamang repatriation benefit yung insurance kung di kasama sa contract mo sa company. Hahanapin kasi yun sa POEA. Ang ginawa ko, email ako sa BUPA, binigyan nila ako ng quote. Tapos, nung ok na sa akin, binigyan nila ako ng letter para sa requirement ng visa. Magstart lang ako magbayad nung nandito na ko. Direct debit na lang ginawa ko after ko magopen ng bank account dito.

    @epiboy99 Maraming salamat! Hindi rin kasama sa kontrata ko ang insurance. Mukhang dito na lang din po sa ni-refer ninyo ako mag-inquire.

    Kapag po ba college graduate, kailangan pa rin ng diploma ng high school para sa 457?

    @LouieAngeles57: No need na po. Ang kailangan lang po na documents for processing 457 are coe, certificates of training; diploma, tor, cv, cert. of medium of instruction, birth cert, signed employment contract ant lastly ung health insurance.

    @rachelle_gan2: welcome! Nakalimutan ko ata ibigay yung cover letter. I'll send you another reference na galling sa isang member ng forum. Btw, include mo po sa CL na may visa na kayo. Probably it will help na mapansin ung application nyo. Madaming company kasi ang naghahanap ng staff, but they don't have any visa. Also, I think it was mentioned in one of the topics here na from this month up to 1st quarter of the following year ay mejo mahirap tlga makahanp ng work knowing na may shut down ang mga companies in Aus.

    Yup. Sila nagsabi na ganun. pang family coverage yung kinuha ko. Tapos sabi ko mauna ako pumunta sa Australia and after 2 months pa sunod mag ina ko. Ginawa nila single coverage muna tapos ibalik na lang sa family pagdating nila.

    @rachelle_gan2 hi rach!

    yup tru recruitment agency po ako d2 sa pinas, sila lahat nag asekaso sa mga papepels ko, bale ang ginawa ko nlang ay ang vetasses tradetest, and medical, tapos submit req'd docs sa kanila. Yung 1st employer ko sa victoria dapat ( di na ako dumaan ng interview kasi daw pasado na ako sa needs nila).. unluckily di natuloy kasi humina yung kumpanya nila, nagbawas pa nga ng mga tao.. after a month may panibago employer from Perth naman, ( d na rin ako nainterview kasi pasok din ako sa nids nila), the relodging was quite fast kasi change of sponsor lng ang binago, it took a month and a half seguro, kumpleto na ako lahat lahat, plane ticket nalang kulang sakin, but again di na namn natuloy kasi natamaan daw sila ng recession.. (d kaya ako ang malas? hehe).. pinaghintay kasi ako ng araw, tapos naging weeks, naging months.. kaya niwithdraw ko nalang application ko sa agency.. just lately nag apply ako sa panibagong agency at senwerte kasi napili ako ng employer, (ang kagandahan nito inenterview ako..) so ngayon still on process na namn ang visa ko... :) hoping na sana ito na talaga... at least smile pa din kahit konti lang :)

    @rii, Maswerte pa rin kayo kahit paano, kasi despite sa mga nangyayari sa mga previous employer nakakahanap pa rin kayo ng bagong employer. Mas ok nga yan na nangyari yan sa Pinas pa kayo, d katulad ng iba na kararating lg pinabalik kaagad kasi nagka recession.. D bale, madali na lg yan sa inyo kasi my visa na kayo ay e aaply ng bagong employer ay nomination at sponsorship na lg.

    @rachelle_gan2, just to give u an idea mas madali makahanap ng employer yung nag aaply for 457 visa, in the reason that merong minimum pay na kailangan lg e meet ang employer pra mkapagsponsor which is sa pgkakaalam ko ay $26.80 per hr. Un nga lg sa ngaun hinihigpitan ng government ang 457 visa kasi my ibang employer na hindi ito ginagamit sa tama. Ung ibang employer kasi mas prefer nlang magsponsor ng 457 visa kasi bibgyan lg nla ng minimum pay ok na at tatagal pa sa trabaho pero ung mga local hindi tatanggap un lalo na skilled cla.

    @Yukishih sa case ko, may relocation allowance na binigay. Bale kasama dun yung cost ng visa, airfare atbpa. Nakalagay naman sa contract mo kung ano yung maprovide ng employer. Medyo nagmahal na kasi ngayon yung visa cost kasi separate na for you and your dependents. Pero sana dapat shoulder ng company yun. negotiate mo yung contract mo if possible.

    @rii yung hubby ko sa recruitment agency din nagapply.. naghihintay na lng din ng visa. pero ayun, nagkaproblem yung telco company sa australia. sayang nga eh. after 6 months na sila nasabihan na d tuloy yung application niya. nabigyan naman sya 3 months stipend kasi habang antay nila yung visa may stipend sila na natatanggap from the employer. sabi ko nga sa hubby ko at least my new certificates/trainings na naman sya. yun nga lang ngayon, antay ulit.

    I hope yung application mo @rii, tuloy2 na yan.
