Hi girls post namankung paano kayo nakapag work sa australia, thanks

[Vika]

Saan mas okay pag magpaparenew ng passport? Sydney or Canberra? I am here in Melbourne and sad kasi bakit walang passport renewal dito sa Victoria.

[ysa.belle]

^as per my cousin, mas mabilis daw sa sydney.

[Vika]

^Thanks dear. I hope mabilis lang. Ang worry ko kasi baka hindi kayanin ng isang araw.

[ysa.belle]

kagagaling ko lang po ng consulate sa sydney and walang pila. walang tao. hehe
 mas mabilis.

[belle_v2g]

From VIC here. I renewed mine in sydney, received it after 4 weeks.

[Vika]

^Thanks! I haven't decided pa kung sa consulate general sa sydney or sa embassy sa canberra. Pero at least now i know na after 4 weeks pala bago mo makuha yung bago. I didn't call pa for more info din kasi. Thank you again.

[belle_v2g]

Hi Vika! Yes. 8-10 weeks kase ang nakalagay talaga na claiming period. But you can check sydney consulate website before yung due date na ibibigay sayo. Nagcheck ako after a month, bigla available na yung sakin.
Another advantage kase pag sydney, one train ride lang from airport ang consul. Sa canberra medyo malayo. 

[Vika]

^Oh! Sa sydney na lang din kami kung ganun. At least di mahirap puntahan. I don't want to impose sa mga relatives at friends. Thanks ulit for that info at sa mga iba pa.😊

[uvhp]

^Sis Vika mabilis lang nga sa consulate rito sa Sydney. 30 mins tops.

[Vika]

^Thanks!😊

Meron ba kayo alam na GP or pedia na gumagawa ng circumcision dito sa melbourne? Kahit sa bandang zone 2 dadayuin ko not necessarily na malapit sa city. Matatapos na term 2 at balak ko doon pagawa yung circumcision. Matagal din ang term break and winter pa so i think perfect yung timing. Yung ibang friends at kakilala ko sa pinas pinagawa nung umuwi. Di namin ginawa kasi kulang sa time at sinulit namin yung 2 months for pasyal talaga.

Hi, I am 38 years old, married with 2 kids. Registered nurse ako dito sa Pilipinas pero no work experience. My husband works as a flight crew. At my age, ok pa ba mag aral ako sa Australia? Or is it too late already, at masasayang lang. Gusto ko sana eventually maging permanent resident kaming family. Please give me advise. Thanks!

[zee87]

Why study kung pwede naman kayo maging pr agad. Yung husband mo na flight crew ang magiging primary applicant. Nasa CSOL (list of jobcode) yung skill niya. Search mo lang job code 451711. Kung ikaw magiging primary, ang option mo nga lang is to get a student visa which is super mahal. See first if you could get your husband as the primary applicant so you can apply for 190 VISA.

[jessica]

Thank you very much sis for replying, i'll check the list 🙂

[Super Nix]

May mga teachers ba dito sa Australia? What are your experiences?

Gusto ko sana mag apply.. saan ko pwede makita yung list of skills?

[zee87]

mag apply ng work or mag apply ng permanent visa as skilled worker?
Checked border.gov.au and search for SOL and CSOL. Those are the lists of jobcodes the country need.

[Super Nix]

^thanks sis!

[belle_v2g]

^hi jessica,
ok sana your profession kaso required talaga ang experience for nurses esp if you are applying thru points system sa anmac. maybe your hubby can try.

[ysa.belle]

Hi. Madali lang po ba to purchase items from the US and have it shipped to Australia?

Ang hirap kase maghanap ng mickey mouse bag, clothes and toys sa Aus eh.
Or may alam po kayo stores na pwedeng bilhan ng disney merchandise.

Saka saan po makakabili ng thermos na brand ng water container at mga pistachios na malalaki yung lalagyan kase puro maliliit lang yung nakikita e.

Thanks.
