And yung mga certfied true copy na documents ko, diba pina photocopy lang lahat, tapos notarized and signed nung attorney, pero charcoal grey ang kulay ng mga tatak nya so pag pinacolor scan ko di naman halata na certified true copy kasi mukang xerox lang. Pano ba yun? Patulong po sana, ko ting hinga na lang. @XiaoMau82 @kremitz @theumlasfamily

Guys tanong ko lang, currently I'm working here in Singapore for more than 2 years na. And for the next 2 weeks nman I will be working with another company, dto padin sa Singapore. Ang work experience ko is more than 5 years na. First work ko is 6 months, then 6 months, then 2 years and 3 months, and then 2 years and 2 months. Yong first 6 months ko meron ako problema kasi d ko na mahanap yong ITR ko, nagrequest ako kaso malabo na kasi naitapon na daw. So kung tatanggalin ko yon, bale less than 5 years ang work experience ko nlng. Sa new employer ko nman dto sa Singapore is 1 year.
1. ) Ano ba guys ang suggestion nyo, pede kya magpa assess na ako ngayon or at least magpa 1 year muna ako sa next company na papasukan ko?
By the way, eto ang points ko sakali:
Age 28 = 30
Bachelors Degree = 15
2.) Spouse skills (CPA) = 5 - ano ba requirements needed aside from PRC id ng mrs ko?
Work experience = 3 years sa pinas at current 2 years dto sa Singapore, (not sure how many points makukuha ko dto kung ngayon ako magpa assess kasi yong isang 6 months ko wla ako ITR)
IELTS = planning to take by February next year.
3.) Another question, ano ba yong sinasabing PROFESSIONAL YEAR?
- Meron ako training sa Pinas ng more than a year sa nominated ko na occupation.
4.) Last question, Pede kaya magpa "Certify true copy sa Phil Embassy"?
Salamat guys!

"2.) Spouse skills (CPA) = 5 - ano ba requirements needed aside from PRC id ng mrs ko?
IELTS = planning to take by February next year."
If you will claim spouse skills, kailangan magpaassess ng wife mo sa CPAA or CAANZ. Need nya magtake ng IELTS. Sa part namin, since hindi worth it na magpaassess pa sya in order to claim 5 pts lang, hindi na kami nagclaim.
Take na kayo IELTS as early as possible! 2 years pa naman validity e, para 1 item done na

I plan to take IELTS this coming February 2015, dto na rin sa sg. need ko lng makakuha ng malaki score kasi nsa 5 years work experience plng kasi ako (3 year sa pinas and then 2 years dto sa sg). Ang d ko lng malaman ano yong sinasabing "Professional Year". Kung bibigyan ako ng 10 points sa work experience ko, nsa 55 points plng kasi ang makukuha ko. So sa IELTS na lng tlga kelangan at least maka 10 points man lng
Age 28 = 30 points
5 years work experience - 10 points
Bachelors Degree - 15 points

If you are applying for temporary or permanent migration
For the Australian Government to determine whether you are of good character, you might be asked to provide police certificates for each country you have lived in for 12 months or more, over the last 10 years, since turning 16 years of age.
You must declare all recorded offences to us. If you do not declare an offence and we become aware of this it might have a negative impact on your application.
Do not finalise any travel arrangements until after the grant of your visa. This is because visa processing times can vary depending on the visa type and your personal circumstances.
When is a police certificate required?
If you are over the age of 16 and have lived in any of the countries listed on this page for a total of one year or more in the last 10 years, you must get a police certificate from that country.
The certificate must cover the period of time from the issue date back to the age you ceased to be a minor, or must cover the whole time you were in a country.
For immigration purposes a police certificate is deemed to be valid for 12 months from the issue date.
