Hello! Good day to everyone! I would like to get your insights po as I am planning to submit an assessment to ACS.

Age: 28
Work Exp: 8 years in the same company with 4 diff roles related to software/product support and QA testing, but big chunk po is support.
Education: Section 2 school - BSIT
1.) How many years will be deducted from my experience?
2.) May pag-asa po ba na maging AQF bachelor's degree if from a section 2 school?
3.) How big is the difference from ICT Support Engineer (263212) and ICT Support and Test Engineers (263299) when it comes to assessment po? Since same lang po sila na under ng job code na 2632.
Thank you so much po!

We wouldn't exactly know ilang years idededuct ng assessor. They may have publish a guideline but it's not followed absolutely and deduction will be based on the documents that you will submit.
Hindi yata. Considerable to Bachelors lang if you're non-ICT but with PRC license. I could be wrong.
Parang broader ang scope ng 263299 than 263212. Both are under STSOL so you can go for 190/491.

only acs knows. baka 4-6 yrs deduction (because section 2). but the final result will still depend on your documents
no. unless may license ka
wala atang major diff. check mo na lang siguro alin dyan yung mas mataas yung chance ng invitation based on prev rounds

good luck po!

Thanks for the response @mathilde9 and @RheaMARN1171933.

Another question. Does ACS really verify/conduct background check with the company written in the COEs with roles and responsibilities provided?

mathilde9

@midNightSun123 - this I am not so sure about since I didn't get back with my employers to see if ACS verified stuff related to my assessment. Just submit it, I think a little tweak to elaborate the roles and responsibilities wouldn't be bad.

Assessors will rely on the documents you have submitted/stated.

But definitely when invited and when you lodge visa, immigration will have to verify / validate the authenticity of everything you claimed points for.

Whether they would call or not, from your end, you should have a mindset that they could. They have the prerogative to verify your employment if they feel the need to do so. This shouldn’t be an issue your end if all your evidences are genuine and correct.

1) If your degree will be considered as comparable to AQF bachelors degree, its only 2 years deduction. If not, they will deduct more.

2) Mayroong chance ang BSIT from Section 2 school to be considered as AQF Bachelors degree. As I remember may factor ang grades and if ung subjects is madaming ICT units tlga ang tanda ko. My degree is assessed as Bachelors Degree. I am also from Section 2 school as BSIT with above 85% GWA. I think I have read about the GWA and ICT subjects % somewhere here sa thread di ko nalang mahanap ngayon.

3) I have no idea on this. I have only read 263212 kasi ito yung assessed occupation ko. You may check the job description for each code po to see if ano difference nila. 🙂

Anyone tried to submit an assessment sa ACS on a different ANZSCO code? Different email address ba gamit?

talaga? I checked earlier and noticed the old files are still there..di ba naquestion yung new submission kung aligned na siya sa ibang ANZSCO code like the roles and responsibilities?...I already have a positive assessment and di pa siya expired..

Same scenario got a positive assessment CNSE 263111, pero I will submit another one for another ANZ code 263212, I will use the same docs that I used. I am doing this kase meron akong 2 employment episode that is assessed as not closely related daw (lost 5 points here). I kinda expected this dahil medyo generic yung job roles ko dun and mas fit sya sa 263212.

I asked a friend who did this, parehong positive naman outcome in the end. No questions asked.

Hi @casssie @jdash okay po, maybe I really just got LUCKY.

To be fair and not to give false hope sa iba, I did not find any official info about the grades din sa ACS guidelines at the time na nagsubmit ako for assessment. I got all this information dito lang din sa thread napag-usapan ito, baka it was a factor dati since ACS are getting stricter through the years. Sample comments here back in 2018.

[https://pinoyau.info/discussion/comment/295625#Comment_295625](https://pinoyau.info/discussion/comment/295625#Comment_295625)

My profile:

..School: From Section 2 (according to School list here in pinoyau)

..Course: BSIT (no PRC License since walang board exam ang BSIT)

..GWA: 93% (1.66)

..Nominated Occupation: ICT Support Engineer

During my application what I did is I explicitly mention my grades nalang din sa resume kasi wala naman mawawala kung ilagay ko baka sakaling makatulong. Though, I already accepted upon my application that the best case scenario for me is only "Associate Degree" with minimum deduction of 4 years base on ACS matrix. Fortunately God has different plans, I still got AQF "Bachelors Degree" equivalent with 2 years deduction po.

Hi! Good Morning! I'd like to kindly ask for your insights po since I'm planning to get an assessment from ACS based on the following credentials:

Education: Section 1 school - BS ECE (Electronic and Communications Engineering - Non board passer)

Age: 33

Work Exp: 10 years in the same company with 2 diff roles:

4yrs Test Manager (Test Plan & Execution)

6yrs Incident Manager (Prod Support)

I'm planning to get assessed for 263299 - ICT Support and Test Engineer NEC since that's the closest description for my role.

My questions are:

1) Am I likely to get the full 10yrs of skilled employment exp or will I get deductions for not having a degree in IT? And if not, how many years will likely be deducted?

2) How many points is the minimum requirement to get a visa invitation for sub class 189/190 for my ANZSCO code?

Your insight will be very much appreciated. Thank you!🙏🏼💗

1. There may be deductions since you completed a non-ICT course and non-board passer. You can download the entire ACS guideline in their website/

https://www.acs.org.au/msa/skills-assessment-guidelines-for-applicants.html

No one can confirm how many years ACS will deduct. Submitting the assessment can only prove that and it will still depend on the education / employment references / payment evidences you will provide.

2. Use this points calculator available in the DHA website:

https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/tools/points-calculator

The points invited for your anzsco code may be queried via Skillselect, fiddle around the website so you can get the info you need:

https://api.dynamic.reports.employment.gov.au/anonap/extensions/hSKLS02_SkillSelect_EOI_Data/hSKLS02_SkillSelect_EOI_Data.html

Marami nang thread nyan dito sa forum about non-ICT or mga ECE na napunta sa IT/Software field na nagtanong ilan ang deduction. Leverage the search button in this forum, may makikita ka din. Although the search function is on a word-for-word matching, may makikita ka pa ring relevant thread.
