<blockquote rel="Aiwink">@carla_glam same educational background tayo. VETASSES will acknowledge the educational background sasabihin nila ito

"bachelor of SCience in Architecture awarded in 200- by the University of STo tomas

The qualification 1 is recognised by VETASSES for the purposes of awarding points for qualifications under the general skilled migration points test as comparable to the educational level of an AUSTRALIAN BACHELOR DEGREE."

having received that from VETASSES nagapply kme ng EOI tapos nagclaim kme ng points for education. after a month pinatanggal ng DIAC ang points. ngayon end of the queue ulit kme......</blockquote>

for clarification, i think marami nga po nalilito dito, lalo na sa pag-fillup ng EOI;

yung 5pts for education is study in australia for atleast 2 yrs.. so kung hindi nagstudy sa australia hindi dapat magclaim nito..
the other points (for the Educ Qualification-AU or recognized overseas), is where we claim the points based on the assessment.. "COMPARABLE" level to AU educational level.. so in this case, BS Archi from UST is COMPARABLE to AU BS Degree (which is 15pts)..

meron po dito na na-apply na nya ung visa (at nakabayad na) nung ma-noticed nila na mali pala ung EOI claim nila.. im not sure kung anu na nangyari sa case nya...

it's very important to understand this para hindi masayang ang oras..

if in doubt... just ask.. marami ang sasagot dito sa forum..

Hi @Aiwink! Arki din ako. What do u mean pinatanggal ng diac ang points for education? Kahit may points advisory from Vetassess for bachelor's degree sa Pinas (i also have master's dito sa sg included sa points advisory) kelangan tanggalin sa EOI? Thanks! 🙂

Aiwink

@mrs_sharky well hindi ko rin kse alam nangyari. nung nagtanong kme sa AACA medyo sinabihan na kme na educational qualification lang ang tinatangggap nila medyo sinabihan na kme na dapat sa australia ka nagaral at plano mong maglicense na maging architect. so medyo naghint na kse samin na hindi kme makakapasok

so napunta kme sa VETASSES as archi draftsman and when we received the letter that our educational background is qualified as comparable to an australian degree inapply namin ng points then we received an email from DIAC saying

Dear ---------

You have been contacted by DIAC

This letter refers to your Expression of Interest (EOI) submitted in the SkillSelect system.

Your EOI details are:

EOI ID: -----

Submitted date: 09 Aug 2012

Full Name:---------

DOB: --------

Australian Study Requirement

Dear Intending Migrant,

This is an announcement to advise you that a discrepancy has been discovered where intending migrants may have

misinterpreted a question in SkillSelect.

A number of EOIs indicate that intending migrants may have incorrectly have answered “yes” to the following question:

Does the client meet the Australian study requirement for the Skilled Migration points test?

The Australian study requirements has a very specific meaning under Australian law. The definition of the Australian

study requirement is provided in the help text button link to the question.

To meet the Australian study requirement, your course or courses must meet all of the following requirements:

• be registered through the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Course for Overseas Students (CRICOS)

• have been successfully completed

• have resulted in you receiving a degree, diploma or trade qualification

• have been completed in a total of at least 16 calendar months

• have been completed as a result of at least two academic years of study

• have had all instruction in English

• have been completed while you were physically in Australia at an Australian educational institute

• have been completed while you held a visa authorising you to study in Australia

Any failed course subject cannot be counted towards the Australian Study Requirement.

Please be advised that if you cannot satisfy the above requirements you should not select “yes” when answering the

Australian study requirements question.

Your invitation to lodge a visa application is based only on the information presented in your EOI

If you lodge a visa

application and your points score is less than claimed in your EOI and invitation letter, your visa application may be

refused even if you are able to pass the points test or meet other threshold criteria.

If you receive an invitation and your points have decreased or your personal information is not accurate, you do not have

to proceed to make an application. You should wait for your invitation to expire and correct the information in your EOI.

As your EOI has been identified as one that may be affected by this discrepancy, we recommend that you review your EOI

and if required, update the information according to your circumstances.

For more information about claiming points please refer to our website at

ayan cut and paste ang letter. @lock_code2004 baka ayan na rin nangyari sa kanya, antay magexpire ang EOI nya?

let me know kung magulo or naliwanagan ka.

@Aiwink ay parang na-gets ko, naalala ko un portion na ito sa EOI. Dapat nga "No" ang sagot dito kase di naman tayo nag-aral sa Australia. "No" din un sagot ko dito. Tapos under ng Education History ko nilagay un schools ko, tapos dito nila binase un points for Educ Qualification na 15 pts for Bachelor's Degree, tama ba? 🙂

@Aiwink haha! Sumagot ka na pala! Yes thank u! Naintindihan ko na po 🙂

carla_glam

Thanks @psychoboy, @aiwink & @lock_code2004!

Hi @aiwink, just to clarify, you were able to claim 15pts for the

Educational qualifications

(Description: At least a Bachelor degree, including a Bachelor degree with Honours or Masters, from an Australian educational institution or other degree of a recognised standard)

However, during the time you applied for EOI, you said YES & claim points for the australian study requirements, so there goes the discrepancy of your application. Coz you can only claim points for this if you were studied in Australia & meet the requirements stated above. Upon re-submission of your EOI your actual points will reduce to 65points, coz you won't be able to claim points for the Australian Study Requirements (5pts).

So in my case, pasok po ako sa 15points since my university belongs to Section 1, thus, saktong 60points po ako. My next question is, do you think 60points is sufficient enough to be granted for visa & get state sponsorship? Or pataasan talga ng points ang labanan? Do I still need to retake my IELTS in order for me to claim points for it?

Thanks again to all your help!

Cheers! 🙂

If you are applying for 190:

kahit 55pts ka lang, you can get a State Sponsorship (5pts), so in total you'll get 60pts... And once approved na ang SS, automatic na ang visa invitation for 190..
if you will be applying for SS (dahil ang occupation mo ay nasa CSOL 2), there is no sense in re-taking that IELTS to get more points.. dahil nga automatic na ang 190 SS visa invitation once approved na ang SS..
of course, assuming na nasatisfy mo din ang IELTS requirements ng occupation mo for that particular STATE..

if you are applying for 189:

then that's the only time na kailangan mo ng mas mataas na total points, dahil ranking at effectivity date ng EOI score nga ang labanan dun..

Tama po..

Answer "NO" to Australian Study Requirements, Kung hindi naman nag-aral sa AU.

And of course, you can claim for Educational Qualification, based on the results of the assessment..

carla_glam

@lock_code2004, super thank you po! I guess no need to retake IELTS in our case, coz we are applying for visa 190. Since we dont have claim points for IELTS, 55pts lng kame + 5pts for SS so pasok pa rin sa 60pts..thank GOD masa-save namen ung $300!

Buti nlang lenient ang WA sa IELTS, minimum 6points for each band lang IELTS requirement nila 🙂

God is sooo good all the time tlga! Now, waiting for the result of our assessment, hopefully we'll receive the good news soon pra mka apply na ng EOI & SS 🙂

God bless po sa lahat ng mga applicants, I pray for the smooth processing of our applications. Just continue to persevere, pray & trust in HIM..the answer to our prayer is on the way na po 🙂 HIS timing is always perfect!

Sa mga walang sawa sa pagsagot sa mga questions namen, may God bless you even more for being a blessing to many of us here. My heart is full of gratitude sa lahat po ng mga naitulong nyo. Isa po kayo sa mga patunay na di lahat ng Pinoy ay may crab mentality. Salamat po mga kababayan! Im proud to be a Filipino dahil sa mga katulad nyo.

Happy Sunday everyone! 🙂

aiwink

tinawagan ko po pero 10sgd daw per document.. meron pa po ba 5sgd lang?

olrac183

@carla_glam

congrats in advance, same tayo situation but ang target SS ko is NSW, nakalagay is band 6 lang ang required but also depends on occupation, i checked the NSW SS

site but it is not clear whether analyst programmer is required to have band score

of 7 for each exams.. someone know what is the required band score

for NSW SS - occupation is analyst programmer, already post in NSW SS thread and emailed NSW inquiry but still no answer. Thanks.

Aiwink

@olrac183 PM kita later at titignan ko ang notes ko sa lahat ng NOtarial ang howmuch. 🙂 adelphi may mura... check ko later.

carla_glam

Thanks @aiwink! 🙂

@olrac183, based sa website ng NSW, they only require 6points for each band, however, you have to check the minimum IELTS requirement of your skill assessing body. In your case, I think its ACS, kindly refer to this link: http://www.immi.gov.au/asri/occupations/a/analyst-programmer.htm

Hope this helps 🙂

you can have it notarized in malaysia if you want... maybe pinas, it doesn't matter as long as you have complied with the requirements of DIAC.

S$15/page for CTC? That is too expensive...

alexamae

@Valerie_meh baka iba po ung notarized at CTC.

Ask nyo po magkano magpa certify true copy, kasi nung nag inquire ako dati iba daw po yun kaya mas mahal ang notarize.

Aiwink

@alexamae iba talaga sya. CTC lang ang hinihingi. notarize kse finafile pa talaga yun ng atty at may number. etc. yung CTC certification lang na copies sya from the orig documents. kaya mas mahal ang notaryo. usually legal documents ang notary. check mo above yung naresearch kong mga prices. 🙂 pag umuwi ka pinas I suggest dun mo na ipaCTC lahat.
