<blockquote rel="lai">@TasBurrfoot Wow! A big thanks to your very prompt and detailed response 🙂.. Just to clarify though, so all of these are for membership assessment plng? Andame pla.. It seems that instead of BC, your wife opted to submit her passport.. Where did she have her passport and transcript authenticated, s DFA b? And panu ung mapping of courses I took versus CPAA requirements? Does it have a specific format or can I just make a simple excel table showing it?</blockquote>

This is for skills assessment...

I meant certified true copy by a lawyer.

The course mapping I mentioned above was our own initiative just to make sure that we will satisfy the dreaded accounting theory requirement in the skills assessment. There is no specific format; it is up to you how you would want to present it if you want to include this in your docs to be submitted.

kami we did it ourselves as we cannot afford to pay for an agent... if you just read the requirements, kaya naman - in fact most of the people here did it on their own.

@lai hi! I signed up last night sa CPA australia pra mg.pa.assess. Nagtataka lang ako why hndi ko ata nadaanan yang docs. Ng.fill up lang ako nung mga name, school and mga ganung questions.

Tapos may tanong dun ng IELTS exm result so i stopped kasi next week pa ako mg.eenroll.

Tama kaya ang napasukan ko? @TasBurrfoot sorry po my question sounds silly hehe. Bale from what Ive read dito na thread kagabi, sa assessment pa lang my professions na kelangan ng IELTS. Looks like sa accountants meron nga, sa CPAA.

When i get the ielts result, i'll go back sacpaa to finish filling up the blanks tapos submit lang then if positive, saka na ko submit nung docs like passport, TOR sa CPAA pa dn...tama po ba?

@TasBurrfoot Yeah I know the detailed topics covered under accounting theory subject which I took up and studied under my ACCTG 3 subject (Financial Accounting Theory).My accounting 3 subject tackled discussion on pure accounting theory for the whole semester and no problem solving yet. The problem solving part of the financial accounting( with emphasis on financial reporting) was taken up under ACCTG 5 subject in our curriculum (which is also the equivalent breakdown of ACCTG4 & ACCTG 5 with description as "financial accounting theory and procedures" in the curriculum studied by those batch who graduated a year after me). So, yong ACTG 4 & 5 covered the same topics lang naman sa Acctg 3 & 5. Walang Actg4 subject during my curriculum. I Just want to know if tinanggap ba ng CPAA yong addendum which your wife submitted to them. Tinanggap lang ba basta ng CPAA yong addendum na walang certification from your school's registar?

Thanks a lot for all your replies here..God bless🙂

We just wrote a letter addressed to whoever is doing the assessment...

Guide lang naman yung ginawa namin eh; and that guide was pointing towards the syllabus which was the one certified as true and correct by the registrar.

A friend gave me an excel file to map the subjects, though I did not include it in my application. Sa left are the CPAA core subjects, sa right are the subjects/syllabus I took in college. So one CPAA core subjects to many college subjects. Just to add integrity (siguro) to the mapping, you can have it certified/signed by your college registrar/secretary.

Probably you may want to "add" integrity by a signature... But at the end of the day, content matters more than the signature.

Whatever you may do, just make sure there is substance in your additional documents! 🙂

@dapogi; this was our experience back in 2012... Despite not having the course mapping signed by the registrar, my wife got 12/12 in all the courses that was assessed by CPAA.

Goodluck to you by the way, hopefully the visa grant letter will be on its way in the coming weeks.

@TasBurrfoot Actually Sir, I couldn't agree more. Meron na kasi sila guideline on how to assess the application. Personally, I had to appeal (although I just emailed my assessment officer directly) my employment assessment in my first job since wala daw financial consideration na naka include . So I had send my employment contract para ma prove lang na may sweldo ako. Napagastos pa tuloy ako. 😛 And yes, substance over matter talaga. 😃 Thanks Sir for those kind words. I'm praying na ma grant na sooner kasi parang loko-loko akong check ng check ng email, hahaha!

@syote77 Kung gusto mo I can send you the excel file. Just PM me your email address.

Your already making an appeal after an assessment so better have the documentations/ letter/ other attachment to be notarised or certified by your registrar/dean whichever is more easier/ practical. But up to you, hehe. Importante nga ung substance na nanjan kasi jan magbased ung CPAA whether your appeal is reasonable. Its still a decision call from CPAA.

It is not required but it will probably help the assessing body to give you a favourable assessment...
