<blockquote class="Quote" rel="aranayad">Hi po I just want to ask for guidance po. My real plan po is for me to apply for a student visa but due to some changes because of my work I plan to divert to skilled independent but first I need to earn points as of the moment kulang pa po ako ng points. I graduated last 2015 BS in Accounting Technology basically my course is the same as BS in Accountancy but my course is only a 4 year course whereas Accountancy is a 5 year course now and I can't take the board exam since I didn't take up some subjects like Audit, Advance Accounting 2 etc. Sa mga nakapagpaccess sa CPA Australia or sa ibang accessing bodies need po ba that you have a license here in the Philippines?
Salamat po sa sasagot.

@aranayad its not required that you are a CPA from Philippines to get a positive outcome, though it has some bearing.
What you can do is to get a syllabus from your school to support that your degree is equivalent to AU bachelors degree.
Which school you graduated?
If you opt for skill independent you need at least 60 points to get an invite.
Work experience is at least 3 years to earn 5 points.
