60 lang talaga ang sagad na points na possible sa akin ngayon if I get superior english. Ok lang ba na magsubmit ako ng 4 separate EOIs? Ano ba downsides nito? Any insights will be welcome thanks!

I need your advice regarding my EOI entry on the Employment part. Based on my ACS assessment result last year 2016, I can claim 12+ experience since ACS considered my experience after May 2003. In the EOI under the Employment part, it states that "should provide details of the client's employment history for the last 10 years". In relation to this, please enlighten me with the following questions/clarifications so I can have the accurate entries:
1. Is it OK that I entered my Company A experience after May 2003 since ACS considered it and I also ticked relevant? But in this case, the experience is beyond 10 years already.
2. With the calculation of last 10 years of employment history, is it after the result of my assessment skills?
Below is the result of my ACS assessment.
The following employment after May 2003 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261312 (Developer Programmer) of the ANZSCO Code.

At the minimum, banks are required under Philippine regulation to retain customer records as follows:
1) Non-financial (IDs, agreement, etc) for at least five years from date of account closure; and,
2) Financial (transactions, which include bank statement) for at least five years from date of transaction.
Should your circumstance be within the retention period, I believe you can demand the bank statement.
