> @_sebodemacho said: > > @kayenzky said: > > hello! just came back from a 5 year hiatus sa pagchase ng AU Dream. question, on claiming partner points (if different skill/no skill assessment si partner) dapat ba cyang magtake ng PTE/IELTS to claim yung 5pts? > > Read here https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/skilled-independent-189/points-table#content-index-10 > > Nasa sayo kung gusto mong mag claim ng 5pts for your partner's English competency. Kung kaya, and eligible naman sagarin nyo nang 10pts kasama na skills nya through assessment. thanks! problem is, hindi kasi IT related ang naging work ng hubby ko kahit Computer Engineering graduate cya. :( btw, when you say "must also be an applicant for this visa" what does it mean? **Your spouse or de facto partner must also be an applicant for this visa and has competent English For you to be eligible for the award of these points your partner must be an applicant for the same visa subclass and must not be an Australian permanent resident or an Australian citizen.**
This visa allows skilled workers (who are nominated by their employer in regional Australia) to live and work in Australia permanently. Occupation must be on the relevant list of eligible skilled occupations to qualify and must have at least Competent English.

Another question po, sa mga clients nyo po na 491 visa holder, kayo pa din po naguupdate sa immi acct nila ng change of details (address, phone number, etc.) Or binibigay nyo na po yung acct kay client nyo po? > > > > And if manghingi po si DHA ng evidence ng address, employer, etc., binibigay na lang po ba ni client sa inyo then kayo po magssubmit or si client na nagsesend directly kay DHA? > > I only have one immiaccount for all clients so can’t give that out 😆, once visa application decision is finalised, that’s the end of our services. Ganun po ba. Pano po pag nanghingi ng update si DHA, sino po makakareceive nun? Kayo po o si visa holder? Then who will update changes/submit docs asked by DHA?

Hello mga kababayan! Recently lang na invite ako for 189 visa dito sa Australia. Nag fifill up ako ng form 80 at may part doon ng identity documents. Ilalagay ko sana ang birth certificate ko pati sa form 1221. Tinatanong doon ang full name ko sa identity docs ang problema ko sa birth certificate ko middle initial ang nakalagay imbis na middle name. Sa lahat ng forms at visas ko dito sa Au, ksama lagi ang middle name ko at hindi naman naging issue noon ang birth certificate ko until now na magfill up nko ng form 80 at 1221. Please share po sa mga naka experience ng same situation ko ngayon. Thank you ☺️

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask but: Yung employer ko po kasi is trying to check other option, Gusto nya ako magtourist visa and then apply for a VISA 186 DE at the same time kukuha siya ng Bridging visa para kapag expire na yung tourist visa ko ay pwde pa ako mgstay sa AU.Since Onshore daw ay mas mabilis. 1) Is it legally possible to shift from tourist visa >bridging visa>working visa (186DE) 2) If so, pwede ba ako magwork while on a bridging visa. Original option is to lodge 186DE and wait. Yung Agent nya kasi nagtitingin ng ibang ways to fast track yung process to obtain working visa. I'm Offshore (sg based). Thank you.

> @ga2au said: > > @d_b said: > > May pwede po makapagshare ng recent experience nila for a lone immigrant for NSW? Average monthly expense siguro sa food, rent, commute, utilities, phone, etc. Thank you 🙏🏼 > > It varies really. Since your alone, probably much cheaper ang pag relocate. For accommodation, you can rent a room, since mag isa ka. Thats probably depends on the location ng house, pero baka may mahanap ka ng 250-300 per week. We dont eat out kasi mahal food sa labas, so if u cook at home and un din baon mo makakatipid ka. 100-150 per week will do. Commute to city depends kung san ja galing. From herr sa Blacktown to city, parang 7$ per trip.pero kung maka 8 trips ka, libre na sususnod mong sakay. Kung magsasakyan ka, i dont recommend it kung titira ka sa city. Kasi mahal parking dun, kung sa suburb ka pwede kang magdrive to any nearby park to ride na train station, tapos take the train from there. Libre parking basta ginamit mo ung opal travel card mo sa train. Utilities varies din sa usage mo. But ung phone namin whch is Telstra is I recharge it every 28 days for 30$. > > Kung magrerelocate ka dito, magastos ung mga unang bwan mo kasi for sure mamimili ka ng mga gamit sa bahay at gamit mo. Ngaun mejo nag iimbak na kami ng mga winter clothes kasi lumalamig na. May mga gastos din pala sa pag convert ng Driver's license at register ng kotse. Evn pag register malaki din nagastos namin. Yan ang sagot! haha Thanks @ga2au, napakainsightful ng mga responses mo. I'll keep in touch and continue to post questions.
Hello everyone! I have a physiotherapist friend po here in PH and magtatanong lang po kami about sa assessment para maging physiotherapist po jaan sa AU. 1. Need po ba ng experience? (as shown po kasi sa fact sheet na nakita namin wala po kaming nakitang exp required parang license lang po ata. 2. If need ng experience atleats ilang years po? 3. Is there a way to come to AU po na no need ng experience pagiging physiotherapist 4. Mga magkano po nagastos ninyo? 5. Ano pong visa ang mas maganda kunin?
> @diannaC said: > Hi. Our hospital is in need for RN. We have good migration agent din. We are located sa regional (3 hrs away from Sydney). They are offering 186 visa for successful applicant. Meaning, direct PR ka na. I can help. Send me CV para i can give it to my incharge. Hi! Any way na a non-forum member can connect with you directly? Will be sharing this with my contacts :)
Good day po, May experience or alam po ba kayo na courier na pwedi magpadala ng gadgets (cellphones and laptop to be exact)? Thanks in advance sa sasagot ! 🥰
Going back home sana to Manila for a short trip and while filling out the form for etravel, there's a question about OFWs. I'm unclear if 485 visa is considered OFW, and sorry if this has been asked before but the search function wasn't really showing any useful results. Wala rin akong ma-Google. Is there anyone who knows about this? Thank you very much!
Don’t think about it too much po. It’s the last thing that you’ll worry about :) Enjoy Australia 🇦🇺 May pesticide sila dito. Very particular sila mga danger zones. They will put signs din naman!
> @athelene said: > > @lyleeee said: > > Hi po! I am an Architect currently residing here in the Philippines and am seeking new career opportunities, particularly in the role of BIM Drafting or Modelling in Revit. As someone who is planning to make a similar move down under within the next 2 years either NSW o Victoria, I couldn't help but be curious about your experiences and insights. Gusto ko po sana magwork remotely under a firm para mafamiliarize ko po ang standards at practice beforehand. I would be happy to send my portfolio and resume kung may opening for a remote worker. > > > > I'm all ears for any friendly advice or recommendations you might have for someone like me who is just starting to plan their relocation and career transition to Australia. I applied in Indeed, Seek, and Jobstreet but to no luck have been shortlisted because of work arrangements -- remote work. Maraming salamat po! > > Most Australian employers here look to hire people living locally (and usually PR/citizen status is preferred), as it is better/easier for coordination. Knowledge on standards will come when you actually start working in the firm. Maybe consider looking for PH-based firm that does outsourcing services for Australia? At least until you can figure out your visa to work in Australia. Thank you, @athelene. I appreciate your response. At the moment, finding a job that does outsourcing jobs for Australia is hard, but I'm sure I can land a job anytime soon. If it isn't too much trouble, may I ask how was your journey as a Filipino Architect moving to Australia? Did you work on jobs that render services to Australian jobs as well?
Hi Sushi, I know you posted this last April but just a query if you have an upcoming available room for July? I work Werribee and Sunshine so I’d be keen to live around Wyndham vale. Harpley is an easy access to a train station. Let me know . Thanks
> @CinnZinn said: > I got an invite po for 190 ACT nomination, may I know po ano pong acceptable financial capacity for a family of 2 (myself and my spouse) ngayon po for ACT? And does it have to still be notarized po? > Wala kasi akong mahanap online na basis for ACT. Salamat sa makakasagot po. I don't think may prescribed amount sila. I think you can check NT, meron silang table. The declaration needs to be notarized.
Good day po to all and kay boss @Ren , plan ko po mag masteral of IT sa SA/Adelaide, yung asawa ko AIMS passer na po siya Med Tech, ang tanong ko po makakapag full time job po kaya siya kahit lab technician? Isa po kasi sa kinakatakot nya yan ang hindi makahanap ng trabaho to sustain. Salamat

Passing it gives you +5 points, so really the only step to take to get it is to pass the exam.

**Why choose timber flooring?** Timber flooring can be installed as solid timber or engineered boards. Engineered boards have the same feel and natural look of real species timber and are the perfect options for those who love timber but need to watch their budget. The cross laid solid Hevea Core and Spruce backing layer means you can enjoy your favourite timber species for a fraction of the price. The best thing about timber floorboards is that the more you live on them, the more awesome they look! Timber flooring has an appeal that goes way beyond simple aesthetics. It’s a look and feel that touches the heart in a way other flooring types can’t. There’s just something about the look of timber that gives off a beautiful character to any space, be it a home or a business. The natural tones and variations of hardwood floors are simply gorgeous, providing a robust and warm feel. The addition of wooden flooring brings a luxurious style that’s hard to imitate, and brings up the value of the property, too. Compared to laminate it’s more hardwearing and can be sanded or even re-stained lasting for generations. It also provides a much more authentically natural and timeless look than concrete or tiles. So, pop into one of our showrooms or browse the ranges on Flooring 2 You to discover what we already know – there’s magic in Flooring 2 You! [preview] **What we do in Flooring 2 You?** We specialise in crafted engineered timber flooring. From product supply to install, to maintenance and aftercare, our team provides comprehensive support. You’ll find every aspect of your flooring needs taken care of. No matter which option you choose from our range of hardwood floors, or custom timber solutions, you’ll be met with excellent products and service every time. Our team’s expertise in installation, parquetry and stairs, means you’ll have beautiful timber floors to last you for the years to come.

My favorite [worldle game](https://worldlegame.io/ "worldle game"), in the evenings after work is the best thing. I'm already tired, so I have no desire to play hard games, and this game is just right for me. This game will test your knowledge of geography which is very useful for both adults and children.
