Hi Everyone!
Unlimited_Sky here.
I just want to thank everyone for the help with all the things I've been reading on here and happy to say that I become more confident in my own journey to AU every time I find the piece of advice I'm looking for in this forum.
That said, I want to provide my own contribution to the forum through consolidating sample files for CDR, Statutory Declarations, and more documents required for the application.
I can't count how many times I've gone to google and typed, "sample cdr for engineers australia pdf" or whatever combination of the sort to try and find any kind of document that can help me build my CDR. Imagine thousands of us trying the same and feeling a little more hopeless when they find a link, but end up with nothing more than a summary. But that hopefully ends today.
I'd like to start off small by inviting everyone who is willing to give their CDRs as samples to those who are still starting off their EA skills assessment process.
Sorry po ang daldal haha. Pero yun lang po! Kindly run through the FAQs real quick before submitting your entry.
Please be patient as we will need contributors to share their documents before this resource bank can work its magic.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
- What is this repository?
This repository is a community-driven collection of reference materials to help applicants understand the structure, formatting, and presentation of documents commonly used in the application process. Right now we're only conducting a trial repository for CDRs but we're looking to expand the repository to all things AUS VISA.
Materials are shared by volunteers who want to help others learn from real examples.

Yes. Access to the repository is completely free.
The repository is maintained as a community resource to support applicants. If this ever changes, there will be an advance notice.
- Why is access restricted?
The repository contains documents generously shared by community members from PinoyAU and other forums. Restricting access helps protect contributors' privacy, discourages misuse, and allows the repository to remain a trusted resource.

The request form helps ensure that everyone accessing the repository understands and agrees to the repository guidelines, including that the documents are for reference only and must not be copied or redistributed.
