engr_boy · December 2013

question po mga peeps..

lived in SG for 6 years na.. sya yung usual country of residence ko?

Have any of the applicants lived in a country other than the primary applicant's usual country of residence?

No

tama po ba? thanks po sa sasagot.

@engr_boy - yung sa pinas.. considered din na tumira kayo dun..

engr_boy · December 2013

@lock_code2004 thanks sa sagot sir. mukhang magpapasa pa ako ng notice of wrong answer. naipasa ko na kasi. akala ko given na yung pinas, kasi yun ang passport ko. eh sa sg lang naman ako nagstay as usual country of residence. nyek.

follow up lang po.. namali ako ng document type sa pagpili, for my diploma and diploma translation sa Letter/Statement - Education Institution when it should be at Educational Certificate - Diploma, Degree, etc.

may nakapagsabi sa aus forum na ok lang naman daw. sa kanya nga yung diploma ng misis na upload niya as his.. wala naman syang naging problema.. antayin ko na lang daw yung CO.

any thoughts on this? thanks in advance.

lock_code2004 · December 2013

@engr_boy - no worries.. ok lng nmn un.. wait mo n lang ang sagot ng CO mo..

need you expert advice, paano po magclaim ng partner skills? need ko additional 5 points for the independent skilled visa. Kailanga pa bang mag-exam sa IELTS and pa-assess ang qualification? thanks in advance

From the official 189 guidelines, yes. To get the 5 points for your partner's skills, he/she needs:
1. At least 6.0 on each of the 4 ielts components
2. A suitable skills assessment from the relevant assessing body
3. To be between 18-44 years of age at time of application

Hi, I am new here and I am planning to apply for migration to Australia via Skilled Independent visa (189). I would like to know if I can include my wife, although she did not finished college, in my application and will that hinder my chance of getting enough points to qualify? Thanks in advance.

if you can satisfy the minimum requirement of EOI 60pts, then pwede mo na isama ang wife mo.. she just need to satisfy the english requirements.. either by taking the ielts exam, or providing english certificate for atleast 2 years in college..

thank you very much for the prompt reply. one more thing, I am in Dubai right now and from here I will submit my credentials for skills assessment. Can I send my credentials for certification to the Australian Embassy here or it has to be from the Philippines in the Australian embassy there. Thank you again!

are talking about "authentication" (red ribbon) of your documents?
if that is what you mean, then it is not required to have it authenticated..
what you need is just certified true copy of documents from any notary/public lawyer...

wastedvampire · December 2013

@lock_code2004: when attaching documents, is it necessary to upload the skills assessment? IELTS?

cvetu2004 · December 2013

@appledeuce many thanks

nagapply ako for subclass 190

then ang requirements is

SKILLS ASSESSMENT
IELTS
STATE NOMINATION
EOI

ngayon eto po yung question ko

architectural drafts person po ang ilalagay ko sa skills assessment
ielts >> Presuming nakatsamba ako

alin po ba ang mas mauuna

EOI or STATE NOMINATION from CANBERRA?...

kasi nacoconfuse ako mga sir regarding sa SOL at STATE Nominated skill occupation

sa canberra may arch draftsperson

sa SOL wala...

sa EOI papaano to?....idedeclare ko parin po ba na arch drafts person kahit wala sa SOI

or may option sa EOI na sakaling nominated ako nang STATE ehhh ibig sabihin kahit wala sa SOL may chance na mapprove ako?...

maraming salamat at pasensya na po sa kakulitan ko...panahon nalang po kasi kalaban ko may ipon po ako talaga...gusto ko lang maclarify please...:(

Hello everyone.I would like to ask for ideas. If you're studying in Australia and the degree is on the SOL, can you directly apply for Independent Skilled Visa and bypassed the Graduate Skilled Visa?Thank you very much.

lock_code2004 · January 2014

@thegreatiam15 read page 1..

http://www.pinoyau.info/discussion/1073/important-information-how-do-i-start-my-application/p1

SOL- is for visa 189 (independent)
CSOL - is for visa 190 (state sponsorship), but also, dapat tingnan mo din nasa list ng state para mag bigyan ka nila ng state sponsorship

yes it's possible, as long as you can satisfy the requirement of the skills assessment..
and will pass the EOI minimum 60pts..

also, skills assessment may require work experience and ielts score..

catajell · January 2014

Hi,

Question po, I am currently working in SG po. Kelangan ko na humingi ng Certificate of Employment with duties and responsibilities for lodgement pero ayaw ko muna ipaalam sa boss ko. Any tips or ideas po kung ano pwede ko sabihin kung bakit ko kailangan ng COE?

Salamat po!

appledeuce · January 2014

@catajell pwede mo sabihin you're planning get a masters degree thru distance education.

Hello po,

I would like to ask if yung sa overseas work experience section kailangan talaga na naka 3 yrs before mag apply? Or baka pwede lng na e forfeit ung 5 points if below 3 yrs exp basta maka apply lng?

Thanks po!

Thanks po!

Kung makukumpleto mo yung pass mark (60pts) from other sources of points (age, qualification, english language proficiency, etc.), pwede ka mag-apply kahit hindi mo masatisfy yung overseas employment criterion, since di mo naman 'kailangan' yung 5 points from that.

kremitz · January 2014

may national identity card ba tayo dito sa pinas?

kremitz · January 2014

then pano po pag wala pa passport baby namen?hindi ko pa sya pwede masama dun sa migrating family member. san ko pwede ilagay dun sa application na we are still waiting for his passport?

kremitz · January 2014

When po nagpapamedical and kuha ng nbi clearance?co ba nagbibigay ng go signal or pwede n after lodgement of visa?then when magpay ng visa fee?check po ba gamitin?

catajell · January 2014

Hmmm.. That's a good suggestion @appledeuce! Thanks!

rein_marco · January 2014

Hi magang araw po. tanong lang po. marami ako nababasa na naiinvite agad after a few days from skillselect. I submitted my EOI on jan 4 and didnt get one on jan 13 as I understand this is the time na nag invite sila. I have 60 points. anyone had the same experience or anyone know why I didnt get an invitation. Mejo kinakabahan lang po kasi ako what if ayaw talaga nila ko iinvite.

another concern po. I worked as an assistant nurse in australia for 2 years. pwede po ba yun i count as experience if my skill is "registered nurse"?

thank you for any response
