Engineers Australia Skills Assessment

@mr_pogi
- your occupation is in CSOL sched 2, right?
- if yes, therefore you will be applying for visa 190 SS
- for visa 190 SS, you dont really need a higher score, 55+5pts SS=60 is enough
- have you applied for SS already?, once your SS is approved, you will get an automatic invitation for visa application.

regarding your question:
- yes, requirement pa din ang IELTS

tama po CSOL sched 2. nka 60 points npo ako. Gusto q sna maging 65 points kung sakali positive assessment si misis pra mas unahin ma invite po sana.

Ok thank you po sa info ng IELTS! iba po pla sa EA compared sa ACS na dpo required agad ang IELTS

salamat po!

@mr_pogi - as i've said, for visa 190, you're total score would not matter..
you should immediately get an invitation from the State, once your SS is approved.
so my personal opinion, wag ng magpa-assess dahil gastos at time na naman un..

yung mas mataas na score ranking will only matter for visa 189..

saang state kayo nag-apply ng SS?

mr_pogi · June 2013

lock_code2004 - ah ok po ganun po pla sa 190

Nilagay ko po na NSW.. pero yung skills ko sa South Australia malaki yung demand.
Sana nga po ma invite kami agad... concern ko lang kc bka matagal yung invite sa 190.
Eh si misis pde sya sa subclass 189, kaso d xa agad makaka submit ng EOI, dahil need pa mag gather ng mga requirements.

maraming salamat po!

lock_code2004 · June 2013

@mr_pogi - wait, clarification lng, did you just put Nsw sa EOI? And/or nag apply na kyo ng SS directly sa NSW?. Separate process po ang application ng SS at EOi..

Hi po,

Ask ko lang, ano po disadvantages ng visa 190 versus 189?

Thanks po,

maraming salamat po!

Dun po sa EOI may selection "In which State or Territory would the client be interested in seeking nomination from?"
Pinili ko po is NSW.

May Note po "The State or Territory selected is under no obligation to contact the client."

"Would the client be prepared to live outside an Australian capital city?*
This question will not affect eligibility for selected visa types in this EOI. This is only information to help Employers or State/Territory governments to search for relevant EOIs."
Answer ko d2 ay: YES

may mali po bko sa process ng pagpili?

Thanks lock_code2004. As always your answers are very helpful. One more question po:

Is there a requirement of "Show Money" for visa 189 and 190 like in Canada?

Thanks,

Hi, im Catherine, I just would like to ask question/s in regards to my Qualification and Work Experience assessment. I have e-mailed EA regarding the status of it and get back a reply that follows:
While going through your application for the Qualification and Work Experience (WE) assessment, I noted the following:
•Evidence of Master's program, you claim to have completed, is not provided. You are required to submit certified copies of the Testamur and the Transcript for this program.
•The copy of the reference letter from (my Company name), you provided, is not signed. You are required to submit the certified signed copy of the reference letters.

My questions:
1. I did not claim any point in my Master's degree bec I have not completed the course but did mentioned it in my CV & CPD, what would I Do next? can I reply them via e-mail since I don't have the papers they are asking? (noting that no other formal communication will be undertaken as stated in the e-mail)
2. Also For the reference letter asked, I have given them the original so why I need to give Certified signed copy?
3. Lastly, they cannot evaluate further my Work Experience unless no.2 will be submitted. Technically speaking I don't have any papers more to provide them bec as per MSA booklet I can submit either Original papers or Certified True Copy of Papers.

Please advise me on these. I am really confused on what to do next. I will be grateful for your help. =(

lock_code2004 · June 2013

@katkat - welcome to the forum..

it happens most of the time, your CO might have overlooked these things.. so just reply to them and explain exactly what you ust said hereon your post above

1. maybe you did not indicate that the course was not completed.. so clearly state that
2. tell them it is the original copy..

i just dont understand this : (noting that no other formal communication will be undertaken as stated in the e-mail)

goodluck..

katkat · June 2013

lock_code2004, sa e-mail kasi nila nakalagay dun the following note: "Please note, as stated in the MSA booklet, no other formal communication will be undertaken in this regard. " nag aalangan tuloy akong mag-email ulit at baka makulitan sa akin which will affect the assessment outcome...=(, but as per your advised mag e-mail n lng ako dun at ipaliwanag ang side ko.....salamat po! More power!

ipink · July 2013

@katkat
•Evidence of Master's program, you claim to have completed, is not provided. You are required to submit certified copies of the Testamur and the Transcript for this program. --agree with @lock_code2004 just clarify in email. in my case, i also have uncompleted masters which i indicated in my CPD but the transcript was included.

•The copy of the reference letter from (my Company name), you provided, is not signed. You are required to submit the certified signed copy of the reference letters. -->my understanding if based only on the first sentence, is that the letter is not signed by the company representative. was it signed?

btarroja213 · July 2013

@katkat, can I ask what is the status of the "issue" with the unsigned COE? I may have the same problem. But I stated in a Statutory Declaration that my unsigned COE is "Computer Generated - No Signature Required" (This statement was also written at the bottom of the COE). I create the Statutory Declaration because I was advised by a friend to do so. (BTW, that friend of mine got a positive assessment with one of her COE also unsigned.).

My CDR papers are not expected to be checked until first week of November. So I’ll wait and see.

ShayShey · July 2013

Hi, I'm planning to have my skills assessed for Production / Plant Engineer, required ba na board passer? I'm a BSME grad pero di ako nagtake ng board exam kasi after graduation na hire na ako as process engineer. I already have 7 years exp as engineer. Thanks!

lock_code2004 · July 2013

@ShayShey - nope it is not required..
but some people say, PRC license has an impact on the assessment of your education qualification, whether it will be assessed as equivalent to AU degree or AU diploma, for the purpose of claiming EOI pts.

goodluck..

ShayShey · July 2013

@lock_code2004 - Thanks! I hope that i could get positive results. :-?

lock_code2004 · July 2013

@ShayShey - make sure that your COE+job description matches with the ANZSCO job description of your nominated occupation...

also, that your CDR career episodes clearly demonstrate the skills required..

goodluck..

ShayShey · July 2013

@lock_code2004 many thanks! i will take note on that.

katkat · July 2013

@btarroja213 , the assessor thought that the Employment Certificate was not signed. he did not see it first because the signature was on the company stamp..it was now clear to him and he said that my explanation was acceptable and the outcome is positive..=)... I think if if you stated that one (computer generated) then u will not face any problem..if in case nman may problem, they will inform u in writing and you can clarify with them via e-mail...=)

katkat · July 2013

@ShayShey , ung PRC registration, factor lng sya sa assessment..the final say is ure CDR & how u will relate your experience as a production engineer...though ung pgkakaron ng PRC it will positively affect the assessment pero hindi nman sya a "Must"....=)

katkat · July 2013

@lock_code2004 ,
What are the chances na mag grant ka ng 190 if mag apply ka SS directly sa territory n gusto mu…sino n po naka experience n2? As I see, my processing fee (separate eto) at sa mismong territory ka mag aaply…anu po ang chances? Mas okay po ba if mag apply ka separately? Para 190 ang sponsorship at hindi 489?

btarroja213 · July 2013

@katkat: Thanks for the reply and congrats on your positive assessment! :-D

Regarding the PRC license, meron ba dito pumasa as Pro-Engineer na hindi PRC license holder/board passer? I have a long-time expired REE license but opted not to submit with my CDR because I do not have the certificate and PRC will not issue another certification unless I renew my license.

Thanks,
Bogs

most visa 190 SS applications should be applied directly to the state, (except for WA na mag change na daw starting jul 1, kailangan mo na mag wait ng invitation from WA before you can apply SS)..

so if you are asking about the chances, it really depends on your application, if you satisfy the state's requirement, then you are almost 100% sure to get the SS approval (considering may slots pa of course)..

Fedex po gamit namin from Singapore. Mabagal po kasi DHL from here. Saan po manggagaling ang sayo?

katkat · July 2013

@lock_code2004, salamat bossing...as of the moment medu ang chances ko kasi will fall under sub class 489, im planning to retake the IELTS para madgdagan points ko..currently nasa 55 points n ako..I would like to go 190 sana kaso mas mabilis ngaun ang 489 & 189.., sa 489 visa kasi di ka entitled sa medicare right? tas provisional pa sya..unless if 190 or 189, pede kn after mg apply citizenship..medu confuse ako ngaun..tapos n din kasi EA assessment ko..

katkat · July 2013

@btarroja213 , it wud be better if isama mu na as attachment ung PRC certification mu..madali lng ngaun ang renewal...as per advice kasi ng AE, any certification from PRC wud positively affect the outcome...in my case, habng ginagawa ko CDR ko, on process renewal ng PRC ko, relative ko ang nag process since andto ako currently sa Dubai..mabilis lng sya 15 days matatapos un..=)
