Sa school mo makukuha yung certificate of medium of instruction, if you can't get it at your school then you need to take IELTS (Para sa mga dependents po ito 16 or 18 yrs old and above if I'm not mistaken and sa mga college undergrad)

<blockquote rel="elgenecc">Got an info from stolich18 and he mentioned to me the new flow to lodge a visa.

Thanks stolich18 for the info.

"Hindi kayo pde bsta maglodge agad ng visa application without being invited by the DIAC (Department of Immi and Citizenship). Dapat ganito:

EOI (Expression of Interest) --> Skill Select --> Visa Lodge

So important na before ka maglodge ng EOI (may corresponding fee), dapat nareach nyo na

\minimum points (60 points)."

On your first question; better list all your positions and responsibilities...

If the certified copy from the university contain a name of a specific person, it should suffice... 🙂
