Hi guys, who are the best local agency to inquire for PR application?

Thanks! This year i'm just 25, and worked for 2 years in engineering field (I'm a Mech Eng Graduate). My marks haven't accumulate 60 yet until i finish my 3rd year of work. Thus i am thinking of state sponsorship, Victoria to be specific, as i've read applying for state sponsorship is free.

But how is the chances of getting state sponsorship? If get sponsored, can bypass EOI stage and reach PR status (Upon payment of course ).

I also found few agents, the agent fees (agent fee only) around AUD$3000-4000 (They all use AUD to earn from currency exchange probably). So keep do survey if not paying a fortune, yet later not guarantee entry, or need wait few years. @.@ that i wouldn't want.

Chances of getting state sponsored is pretty high if your occupation is in the list. However, this does not bypass the EOI stage, you will have to go through the same process too.

I'm a mechanical engineer by discipline and have just gotten my PR. Feel free to ask any questions you have.

How do u apply for ur pr? By agent or by urself?

Thanks

By myself, it's very straight forward and not tedious at all.

Hi Soony, can you pls share your experience how you appliedthe pr by yourself?thanks

Understand the rules and requirements in the website. Understand how the scoring system work. The EOI process once you started it right, it ll guide you step by step on each requirement to see if you fulfill them, then at the end it will sum up your score to let you know if you are eligible.

Pm me if you want more information on what documents are required.

I think many Malaysian are spoonfed. Lazy of reading thru and understand.....pay $$ to ask agent to do the job. Looks like i'm criticising myself...haha.
As i said before, i was so busy with my work that's why i engaged agent to do the work but i did my homework. Read thru website 3 times

Maybe I should be a migration agent as my part time, get qualified and give cheap rates to the people wanting to move to Australia. Haha

Anyone here working as a banker in Aussie?

I'm thinking of migrating to Australia, and keen to do so, but worry about the application and the economy there.

In terms of the EOI selection, how come i hear Aussie based Agents and Malaysian based Agents say different thing ? Aussie say you must get more than 60 points, the higher the better, to get selected. But Malaysia say not necessarily, get 60 points, and you have chance to get selected as well. Is it that Malaysian trying to earn the agent fee so try to raise your confidence in applying, or Aussie just exaggerate things?

I'm hoping to apply Visa 189 /190 , but still surveying agents. can anyone intro me reliable Agent (instead of the R*y**** agent. I nearly decided to engage them, but thanks to you guys in here i threw that out of the window now).

Yeah, charge $100 to copy and paste paragraphs from the immi web site.
Great side income!

You may see it easy from the outside however I beg to differ, things may not be this piece of cake all the time.

I'm currently also engaged to an agent to do my application for me and for numerous times dy, the agent messed up and I had to resend/reprepare documents to the agent, mainly due to changing policies by Aussie.

The point here is to keep up-to-date on what the requirements are, as the policies dictated by the Aussie Govt may change as I am writing this.

if you are talking about policy by immigration themselves then there won't be any frequent change. most major changes will be on 1 July every year and sometime 1st quarter of the year too. but if you are talking about time-to-time change then it will be very rare.

i would say your agent is not efficient or understand the requirement enough and hence many mistakes. once u got the IELTS and skill assessment done, then u pretty much good to go.

yes, they're not efficient. I've regretted, and have paid the money, what to do.

I've been telling people to avoid this agent. (through PM lah of course)

Pity you lah dude.

I'm done already, my PR came through yday. In total, from the EOI onwards, it was just a 3 month wait.

If you can, get rid of your agent. And get a new one to pick up where they left off. Or, if possible, DIY from here on.
