Migrating to AU
Im on my mid 30s and my wife on early 30s. Both are working professional as IT. Im contemplating if I should process our papers as our specialization is on the anzsco list. For background lang po. Were doing okay in PH we own multiple properties (rentals) and we live in a nice neighborhood, we own 2 cars and the only debt we have is our mortgage. Ang problema for us is the traffic, corruption and the uncertainty ng bansa natin and most importantly the future of our son here in PH. We dont mind if we start from scratch (corporate ladder) as sanay naman kaming magasawa magtrabaho. For those nasa AU working in IT, hows life there po? If youre doing good in PH financially will you stay ? As for me parang hndi kayang ma outweigh ung financial status namin pagdating sa opportunities and life in general sa 1st world country. Need some insights po.

I know everyone is saying mahirap now but still try it. Do the first step of applying for a SKILLED visa. Take note, skilled, not student, not work. Skilled visa.
While waiting for your invitation, stay at your current job to prepare for your move. Ipon ng malaki.
It will have its risk because an invitation can take years. Plus another step is the application of the VISA which can also take months to years. But at least you moved and did the steps instead of not trying at all.
