And the plot thickens... (hehe!) So may concessional vs non-concessional pa? Ok, I think I need to read up some more. I have a pretty good idea na. Although I'm still a bit blurry on some points. Complex ang system nila. Isa pang point I need to de…

Ay sorry @jaero, double post pala. I see. Thanks sa link ha. Will go through all these! Sumasakit ulo ko kaka-analyze! Hina ko pa naman sa mga ganito. Ay, automatic pala 5% ang super contribution ko. Sorry mali. Kaya 12.75% ang employer. Nalalak…

@jaero: the hospital is a public hospital. So, I do have option for salary packaging? Ok, medyo complicated to! So, yung contribution ko for superannuation for example, 2% of my salary (yun ang nakalagay dito na minimum contribution for superannu…

@021607, Mam, meron lang ako gustong itanong. Andami ko natanggap na papeles from the employer and nakakalula. And isa dun is about superannuation. Medyo nakakalito kasi wala naman to satin. Sa pagkakaintindi ko, may employer contribution at meron d…

in Visa Application Timeline Comment by Nadine December 2012
Wow! Ang galing ng forum na to, andami ko info nakukuha. Pero nahihirapan din ako mag-digest, hehe. May friend kasi ako na 10 years as nurse but not eligible daw siya for bridging course? Andami niya tanong sakin but I couldn't give answers. We're…

in What are the OPTIONS for nurses Comment by Nadine December 2012
@mariamorris: I doubt kaya ng isang araw. Try niyo po request from the clinic sa Cebu Doc. Pero scheduled kasi ang blood test at CXR. In my case, procedures took 2 days po eh. As to NBI, kuha agad if walang "hit" ang name niyo.

in Looking for a room for rent in Sydney Comment by Nadine December 2012
I see. I think I understand now. Oo nga, medyo expensive nga. Hay naku, andami kelangan isipin! 8-> When you say north, is it north of CBD? So yung South, like Annerley, Greenslopes etc? Tama po kayo, I think. Mas gugustuhin ko yata yung medyo m…

@totoyozresident: thanks! thanks! sobrang daming input ko na galing sa inyo and I'm really grateful. There is really no other way for me to get perm residency but through exams. 18 months to 2 years, I am giving myself to pass clinical exams and the…

in Cost of living (Brisbane) Comment by Nadine December 2012
@021607: mahal po ba ang rental niyong mag-asawa? I hope you don't mind me asking. Also, what does "rough" mean? Hehe, sorry at medyo slow ako sa terms na ganyan. Haven't been to Oz yet. So, the northern part is safer? Yun po ba? Mam, where in the …

in Cost of living (Brisbane) Comment by Nadine December 2012
@totoyozresident: salamat po for the honest input! I don't mind sharing a flat. Worry ko lang talaga if I can actually find someone to share it with. In my first month, I still have relocation allowance pa. After that, I am really on my own na. I gu…

also, my dad is in the province. is it okay na hindi sya dito sa Manila kumuha ng NBI clearance? pwede ba yun sa Cebu is it acceptable? i'm thinking kasi, since pwede sya magpa medical sa Cebu Doctors that he can have the NBI clearance in Cebu as we…

Salamat po for all the words of encouragement! @TotoyOZresident: Sir, mas mahirap po yata yan, may maiiwan. @Icebreaker1928: Thank you. Panibagong working environment eto, kahit pa may experience ako. Sana po talaga!

in Sino po yung walang kakilala sa Aus? Comment by Nadine December 2012
Bakit Australia ang napili nyong destinasyon at hindi US, or other European country? mainly professional growth. At syempre, career stability na rin kung magtuloy-tuloy na to. :> Why not US or UK? Sa US, sobrang daming exams kailangan ko pa…

in Bakit Australia? Comment by Nadine December 2012
Hello, Ako din, I' m curious also as to the timeline of visa processing. My employer just lodged my visa application last week. Sabi nila, it will probably be longer kasi naabutan na ng holidays. Salamat for any input!

Thank you po! I was told madami Pinoys sa Brisbane. Although wala pa ako nakikilala or nakakausap pa. I have friends in Oz po naman, but they work in hospitals in other states! Oo nga eh, in my research, I stumbled on this website. I really am try…

Hello! I just joined the site and already andami ko ng tidbits of info nakukuha. There is one thing I need to ask po talaga. Sa 457 na tulad ko, kailangan pala ng OEC? Is this after I get the visa? Hinihintay ko pa lang din ang visa ko na lumabas. …

@hilikus, bawal po e hehe...ganun batas nila...kung nirequest mo kunin yung 9% as salary, required pa rin ang employer niyo, by law, na magbigay ng 9% para sa superannuation hehe... May provision naman sa superannuation na pag permanently iiwan niy…

Hello! Stumbled upon this site and I am glad i did. Natatakot din ako sa pagpunta ko sa Oz. I'm going to Brisbane in a couple of months. Wala ako kakilala, haven't arranged a place to stay, and to top it all, I'm going alone! Meron ba sa inyo who…
