To start it off, my skill is listed sa CSOL. I've checked the point system and mukhang aabot naman ako.
1. What kind of visa should I apply for?
2. Where do I start? (Pasensya na, lost talaga ako sa process.) What do I do first?
3. Is there a web site where a step-by-step process is listed? Nalilito kasi talaga ako.
Thanks in advance!

May question lang ako, kasi naka-indicate doon na for skills under CSOL, Visa 190 (or 489) ang dapat applyan, and for that visa: "Visa 190 (State Sponsored) – Requires State Sponsorship. Permanent Residence Visa. Restricted to live and work for 2 years on the Sponsor State."
What does "state sponsorship" mean? Does this mean you need to find an employer in a specific state before applying for the visa? Thanks!

the best way to understand is to check each state's specific immigration website..
google "Western Australia Immigration" for example...
