Getting help from naturalized Australian citizen

Hello,
Last month we had a transaction with a family from Australia (NSW). We met them personally.
They are Filipino who are naturalized Australian citizen.
Their father is kind of offering me something as he said "Gusto mo bang makapunta ng Australia?"
I just smiled at him as I don't find the offer for real.
This week he called me again and asking me about the transaction we had last month.
I just want to ask the people in here, what are the possibility of me getting to Australia for work and possibly living there permanently?
What kind of help they can give to me?
I can say that they are good people and most of our neighbors are their relatives.

I have 4 yrs of experience in IT field (Support).
My school is grade 2 only. I don't know the term but I believe it means it is equivalent only 2 years vocational course in Australia.
I am single.
Will be 30 this year.

I am open even on low level skills job.

Thank you.

    very possible but that would depend if your skill is on the list. start your reading here: http://pinoyau.info/discussion/101/general-skilled-immigration-visa-step-by-step-process#latest

    it will give you a lot of insights on what are the possible pathways for you.

    You should ask him how he can help you. ;) I am guessing he can help you in 3 ways.

    1. By giving advice on how you can process your application.
    2. Aside from helping you with the application, he can prolly give you financial help for the visa fee -- which is very unlikely. :D
    3. He can get you an employer-sponsored visa.

    My school is in section 3 and my bachelor's degree in computer engineering was only credited as equivalent to an australian diploma but I was given a permanent visa.

    For your case I guess you can only apply for a student visa, I reckon you wont qualify the Skilled Visa but dont take my word for it

    I also dont want to give you false hope
