Hi Guys,

I'm considering applying for GSIV-Independent 175 but having difficulty choosing which occupation in the SOL list I will nominate and which assessing authority I will use. I have Electronics Engineer (EA) and Electronic Equipment Trades Worker/Electronic Instrument Trades Worker (General) (TRA) in mind. I have a Diploma in Electronics Technology('99) and work as a Test Technician/Engineering assistant in a Semiconductor Industry in the Philippines/Singapore for ~9 years (2000-2009) and Currently working as a Test Product Engineer (2010-2011) in Singapore for roughly 2 years with a Bachelor Degree in ECE (2008). Anybody here have the same case and experience?

    siguro kung anu ang mas matagal mo ng exp yun ang applyan mo, kasi pwede naman ata na hindi related sa course mo ung work mo. importante yung magbase ka sa number of years ng work experience mo. sana may makatulong sa case mo.

    You can nominate both but you will fall short of points for Engineer's occupation. You can pass EA skills assessment as they need 1 year experience only but you will score ZERO for DIAC's overseas experience.

    Eletronic Trades Worker suits you best coz you will gain 15 pts for overseas experience.

    Note: In order to credit your recent work experience, you have to tailor your engineering job duties into a more technical/vocational one.

    Inominate niyo na lang po yung mas marami kayong work experience...mas madaling idustify yun...or if you're taking gsm visa, consider the job/education that will yield the most points...

    Hello everyone,

    I’m a newbie here, I hope you can help me out because I am having difficulty if I will pursue my application in Australia or not since my present job is not listed on SOL.

    My job experience:
    Broadcast Engineer -- November 2007-present
    Telecommunications Engineer -- May 2003– November 2007
    Optical System Engineer -- June 1997–April 2003

    Btw, I am a graduate of Electronics and Communications Engineering so I am considering Telecommunications Engineer (263311) since ito ang nasa SOL and ito ang previous position/job ko but according to DIAC “you must have worked for 12 months in the last 24 months in any occupation on the applicable sole”. 2007 pa kasi ako nag-work as Telecommunications Engineer, does it mean I am not qualified to nominate this job? Can you please give me some advise if I still need to continue my application.

    Help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Im not familiar with your field but as LokiJr said, you can nominate Telecommunications Engineer as long as mahihiglight mo na yan ang nature ng work mo, mas may weight ung nature ng work mo kesa sa job title.

    Please contact admin if you need anything from me, I dont often login to this account.

    Please spare some time to read our "Rules" located at the bottom of the page.

    Hi all ask ko lang kung ano ang mga list ng mga authority sa oz na pwede mag-assess ng mga documents ko? I'm architectural designer for 3 1/2 years & interior designer for 8 months here in singapore, pero wala sa SOL ang designation ko as architectural designer kasi yun ang balak ko gawin para basehan pag nagpa-assess na ako kasi nagtagal ako sa ganung designation. Please advise po sa mga nakaka alam na halos nasa same field ko. Thanks.

    @dukee

    Architectural Draftsperson OR Architectural Associate OR Building Drafting Officer = Assessing authority: VETASSESS

    Please note that the assessing authority doesn't look at the job title, on the contrary a nature of work, duties and responsibilities weigh up most.

    Reply to @malt: welcome to pinoyau!! visa type will depend on several factors..
    i have several questions for you...
    a) may IELTS na ba ang hubby mo?
    b) have you tried checking kung ilan ang points nyo? abot ba ng 65pts?
    c) kung ready na, you can apply visa subclass 176 (either state or family sponsorship)

    pero malapit na rin ang jul1, start ng implementation ng skillselect.. so kung hindi pa ready ang ibang documents.. might as well wait for the new rule..

    just post you questions here if you have clarifications..

    Reply to @malt: hello... 60 pts na lang po ang pass mark ngaun.. provided na meron kayon 65 points.. mas maganda yan.. eto po ang pwede nyo iconsider:

    a) Kung nasa schedule 1 po ng SOL ang skill ni hubby pwede po kayo sa Skilled Independent -189

    b) Kung nasa schedule 1 -SOL or Schedule 2- CSOL and skill, pwede po kayo sa Skilled Nominated -190, kailangan nyo po ng state sponsorship para dito.. okay po ito kung mababa ang total points nyo, kung saktong 60pts lang.. Sa skill select kasi, mas mataas ang points mas mabilis ma invite for visa lodging..

    c) Kung may relative nmn po kayo sa australia na nasa designated area (please check ung actual area), pwede po kayo sa Skilled Nominated/Sponsored - Provisional 489.. Provisional visa po ito meaning hindi sya permanent.. valid for 4 years, after ma satisfy nyo ang residency rule, saka pa lang kayo pwede mag apply ng permanent resident visa..

    Let us know if you have more questions.. our friends here will be able to help..

    @harry , welcome sa forum, matagal tagal ka na nagttrabaho so irrelevant na yung tinapos mong course. Ang inominate mo sa tatlo ay yung nasa bagong SOL...kung wala sa SOL ang kahit isa sa tatlo, dun ka na lang sa may pinaka marami kang years of experience at maghanap ka ng state sponsorship :)

    Thanks a lot lock_code2004 sa reply... now ko lang nalaman pwede din pala ang relative kahit nasa schedule 2 ang nominated skill. may nagsabi kc sakin na pang schedule 1 lang ang family sponsored...Yes meron kami relative sa "melbourne victoria" brother ng husband ko. at doon din namin gusto mapunta na area. And willing syang mag sponsor. Ang ask lang po nya, kung merong money involve..baka daw po kc malaki ang kailangan or show money na dapat ipakita ang mag sponsor? Wala po kc sa site ng skillselect..Requirements lang andun... sensya na po, dami ko questions. God Bless!

    Family sponsorship will cost your family relatives A LOT.

    Kaya mas praktikal pa rin yung sariling sikap na visa type hehe

    @Malt - please double check... hindi po yata tama ang statement na sinabi sa inyo "about relative sponsorship kahit nasa Sched 2 ang nominated skill"

    Ilang beses ko pong binasa, at pareho ang intindi ko.. unless mali ang intindi ko.. ;)
    eto po ang nakalagay:

    If you apply for a General Skilled Migration visa on or after 1 July 2012 and you are NOT nominated by a state or territory government, you must nominate an occupation from Schedule 1 of the SOL.

    If you apply for a General Skilled Migration visa on or after 1 July 2012 and you are nominated by a State or Territory Government, a direct entry stream Employer Nomination Scheme visa, a Subclass 457 (Business (Long Stay)) visa or a Subclass 442 (Occupational Trainee) visa you must nominate an occupation from either Schedule 1- Skilled Occupation List or Schedule 2 - Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List.

    also, read this migration blog:
