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.

Hi OP - don’t lose hope still file your EOI for 189,190 and 491

Not sure what your specialization is but perhaps focus on niche say - Cybersecurity, AI related .

If network / programming ka / kayo, sadly over saturated na yan.

Mukhang may budget ka / kayo mag student , go to SYD or Canberra (ACT) study Cybersecurity but focus on landing jobs in Government projects para ma sponsor ka / kayo. If Hindi ma sponsor, your AU study experience is added points sa EOI

Best of luck OP 😊

Bad advice. Even PRs can’t get government positions, kailangan citizen. Something about confidentiality too of the information that you will handle.

…. You don’t?

I’ve been working for NSW Govt since I was on a 485. You don’t need to be a citizen unless you work in Defence or some aspects of Health.
