Planning to apply visa 189 Urgent

[eric00701]

Good day,

 

I'm a chef, from Malaysia, currently studying Certificate 4 Commercial cookery (waiting for certificate at the moment) and currently working in a French restaurant at Rozelle, inner Sydney. I'm planning to apply PR via 189 or 190 (secondary option). My student visa will expire in early November, which is next month. My current understanding is this::wacko:

- Chef is in SOL list. I have to go through the TRA skill assessment. Can I use the provisional skill assessment for future 189?

 

- It may take a bit longer to get invited via EOI, so my only option is to apply visa 485 to allow me to work, travel and stay further 18 months. I should get bridging visa if the 485 is taking some time. Once I have the 485, then apply visa 189 during the 485 period. Is there any other option in this case?

 

- I had studied in Mawson Place, ACT for 2 years, since June 2013. 1 year for certificate 3 commercial cookery and 1 year for Diploma in Hospitality. Currently, I'm studying Patisserie and Certificate 4 Commercial Cookery (all done, just waiting for certificate) in Townhall, Sydney, since April 2016. I should met the Australian study requirement of 2 years. I should score 5 points.

 

- All together, I had Diploma in Hospitality, Certificate 3 commercial cookery, Certificate 3 Patisserie and Certificate 4 commercial cookery ( due to receive in 2 weeks time), I should score 10 points for cert 4. If I send the cert 4 to TRA assessment and get recognised by TRA, I score another 10 points.

 

- I had worked as Commis Chef in 3 star hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia since 2008, before I resigned in May 2013, just before I came to Australia. I should score 10 points for overseas work experience. Do I need to proof with pay slip? Will TRA consider this factor?

 

- I have been working as cook and kitchen hand in ACT for 2 years. So, I should score 0 points for work experience in Australia as it is not related to SOL, in this case, Chef. My current work experience as Commis Chef in French restaurant is only 4 months.

 

- My IELTS score: L. 6.5 R.7.5 W. 6.0 S. 6.5 overall. 6.5 I should score 0 points, but meet the minimum requirement for 189 and 485.

 

- I'm 29 years old this year, so I should score 30 points.:cool:

 

- Since I study in Mawson Place, ACT, I should score 5 points for study in regional Australia.

 

I plan to apply 485 via Immi account ( I've done the student visa before via immiaccount) due to time factor in light to my student visa about to expire early next month. Is it a good idea?

 

What should I expect when I apply for 485 with Chef as nominated occupation?

Hope to receive some reply and advice soonest possible for my side of planning.:notworthy::notworthy:

 

Best regards,

Eric

Thank you for your reply.

I need a second opinion. The plan that I had shown are based on the discussion with migration. She advised me to get graduate visa 485 for the 189 purpose and to buy more time since my student visa is due to expire in 3rd November this year.

By the way, what else did I miss?
