General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

@mayan for secondary not required magpa-skill assessment although may additional 5pts for partner skill... kung gusto nyong makasigurado sa points & you have qualified skills naman malaking tulong din

As per DIAC
Partner Skills – Points
You can claim 'partner skills' points if your partner is also able to satisfy the basic requirements of age, English language ability, has nominated an occupation on the same Skilled Occupation List (SOL) as the primary applicant for which they have obtained a suitable skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority and they meet the Australian study requirement or have recent work experience in a skilled occupation which is on the SOL as the primary applicant.

Sir Kashichi, baka puwede kayo kumuha ng CoE sa mga employers na napasukan niyo...Check niyo ang job description at imatch niyo yun sa nominated occupation niyo. That would be the simplest way to determine if you will receive a positive assessment from the occupation you chose. Tricky kasi yang skills assessment hehe

@LokiJr thank you LokilJr... That's very helpful.

Hello, newbie ako dito, i have few questions

1. ECE po ako at work ako sa company related sa course ko for more than 10 yrs, need pa bang magpa-assess?
2. my wife is a licensed chemical engr pero nag work cya noon but not related sa course niya.
Now di na po cya nagwo-work. pwede ba claim ng points base in her education alone?
3. Dapat ba talaga pa-access before mag lodge or pwede na direct lodge na agad?
4. i havent taken IELTS yet, may specific ba na IELTS center na niri-require ang OZ immigration or pwede na kahit saan.

Thanks!
Jimbob

@jimbob hi .. allow to assist you on some of your queries.

1. Assessment results from an AUS assessing body(i.e. ACS) is one the requirements for VISA application . Every occupation/ skills needed by their country is on their SOL or Skilled Occupation list:

http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/_pdf/sol-schedule1.pdf

This is applicable for Subclass 175

http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/175/eligibility-applicant.htm

2. If your wife will apply for Visa 175 then # 1 also applies. First step is skills assessment from Australia assessing body/authority.

3. Skills assessment first Sir.

4. I think for Engineers, General IELTS exam is needed.

Hope that helps.

@jimbob hi again. Just a disclaimer.. im not expert on this yet but hopefully some experts can provide their inputs as well. My answers are based on the DIAC website. Thanks.

issa

Hi Chi, very helpful links Thanks are you waiting for the result of your assessment or mag submit ka pa lang?

LokiJr

@jimbob, sir kung ano po yung trabaho ng misis niyo ngayon yun po ang nominated occupatio n niyo. Hahanapan kasi ng assessment body ng work experience yung nomination niyo

jimbob

kashichi ... thanks for the information.

jimbob

LokiJr - thank you po.

Sa points test 60 pts lang nakuha ko (assume ko pa IELTS is 7 (10pts + 5 points sa misis ko), since wala na work ang misis ko for quite some time then and points ko na lang is 55, in your honest opinion, is it worth it? I am here in SGP working as product engr (semicon) since 2005. Is 65 points one of the requirements? If I can get IELTS score of 8 (20pts) then i can get 65pts.
But again, base on the information I got, 8 is difficult to achieve.

salamat po.

jimbob

cencia na po sa maraming tanong ...

1. for assessment, base sa experience ninyo, better ba ang email or post or fax? ano po ang mga requirements na dapat i-provide? photocopy, CTR or original? how much is the cost?

2. I saw this information from OZ site. Is this for the assessment fee alone? What is 1st and 2nd installment mean?

Skilled - Independent (Migrant) visa (subclass 175)

Charge Type Charge Amount
1st instalment $2960
2nd instalment $4110

Maraming salamat po and God Bless ...

@jaero sir - maraming salamat po, at least medyo may liwanag na at the end of the tunnel :-D

jimbob

Hi,
1. pwede pa ba gamitin ang TOR certified true copy dated 2009 para submit ng skill assessment o dapat updated certified true copy.

Salamat and God bless.

jimbob

hello po ... sa COE ko ay ang nakalagay lang ang job title as product engineer lang, di po cya detailed, walang job description pero kumpleto sa header, signature, at date of employment, pwede na ba un?

Salamat and God bless.

LokiJr

@jimbob, usually diskarte ng mga nagmmigrate sa Australia, yung isa muna sa pamilya ang pupunta at hindi sabay...medyo komplikado kasi yung points system at assessment lalo na kung rejected yung isa. In my opinion mataas ang demand sa engineer sa Australia so it might be worth your time to apply on your own first.

Dun sa IELTS, kaya ang IELTS 8, tiyaga at lakas ng loob lang kelangan dun and the 20 pts you can get from that is very very helpful At kung gipit kayo sa points, mayroon ding visa tulad ng Employer Sponsored or State Sponsorship na hindi masyadong strikto sa points

Salamat and God bless.

Sir samahan mo ng testimonial yan para sigurado. Dun mo isingit detailed job description mo at yung salary. Pagawa ka na lang sa manager mo or immediate supervisor. Sa COE kasi generic lang talaga yun.Ganun lang ang gagawin ko eh tapos hingi ka na rin ng calling card ng amo mo tapos i attach mo na rin. May thread dito tungkol sa COE hanapin mo nalang. Tsaka yung listahan na ginawa ni Totoy malaking tulong yun.

jimbob

sir LokiJr - maraming thanks po talaga !

jimbob

sir Phil_Sing_Au - sige po try ko hanapin un, salamat po ...

jimbob

sa points test 55, lang talaga ang nakuha ko (min kinuha ko sa IELTS na 10pts although di pa ako naka take nito, wala rin pts sa misis ko kc tagal na walang work, when it comes sa skill assessment medyo panatag ako kc un naman talaga ang nominted na skills nasa SOL at un talaga ang line of work ko, wala na bang ibang bonus pts na pede i-claim? what if positive yong assessment mo pero 55 lang pts mo (considering 10pts sa IELTS), what are my chances? is it worth it to lodge?

Salamat po ...

mimaahk

@jimbob try mo po sa DIAC website regarding state (176) and regional (475 and 487) sponsorship... baka mas swak po sayo... goodluck!

jimbob

@mimaahk thank you po.

LokiJr

Guys, may tanong ako.. kailangan ba tlagang may work kapag nag-lodge ng application for Visa 175? hehe.

Kasi may clause dun na you must be employed at least 12months in the past 24months upon application.

Give me your insights about this. Thanks!

jimbob

@LokiJr maraming salamat po sir ...

@katlin924, ang ibig sabihin niyan, noong nakalipas na 2 taon, dapat may trabaho ka ng at least 1 year. kung wala ka work this period pero, say may work ka naman ng Apr 2010 to Apr 2011, you satistfied this clause, so you can proceed to lodge your application.

kashichi

@jimbob your welcome. it's great to see people helping one another on this forum.
