Have anyone read the update of ISCAH? yong number of working experience from assessing bodies like VETASSESS will now exclude the required years they take from total work experience. Like for vetassess internal auditor I have a total of 5 working years for my occupation but only left 4 years for their 12months requirment and now ISCAH says DHA has announced that I can claim the total 5years now. Is this true? Havent seen this announcement elsewhere but on Iscah's.

HI Ms. Ane,
Were you granted a visa 189 with 65 points in 2019? Or that increased gradually, that it was higher when you were granted a visa?
Regards.
Joined: Dec 28, 2019
Question: Pag po nagpa assess sa ACS, example you got a lower than 65 results then you sent an EOI with that result you continue acquiring work experience and just updating your EOI. Will you get invited then? Or in order to be invited kailangan po ult mag pa re-assess?
Scenario:
ACS Assessment: 60 (4 years exp.)
Sent EOI after assessment with 60 points
*****Continue life acquiring more experience*****
After a year, updated EOI with # of experience: 5 years. points + 5
Current Score: 65 (met the minimum points)
Do you need to have your self assessed again before the Immigration invites you?

@Nikka if you did not move jobs then you don't have to be re-assessed. same with what happened to me as I was assessed with my latest work which I was still less than a year with the company that time. just say 'yes' in the EOI where that work is positively assessed by the assessing body and the points will automatically update when you meet the required number of years to get points.

Hi, I'm just wondering why the visa grants for 491 are all family sponsored?
https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skillselect/invitation-rounds
Wala pa ba yung 491 na state sponsored lang?

@gjjude I have a friend who got invited for Skilled Work Regional 491 this month, January 2020. She was invited after January 11, 2020, so I'm guessing the 491 Skilled Work Regional invites like 190 State Sponsored, which is outside the transparent monthly invitation for 189.

Pag dineclare ko dun kelangan bang iattach dn mga land title, mga ganun, and if ever pde ba ng support letter from parents kae mejo madugo ung 30k AUD
Joined: Nov 06, 2016
Magdeclare ka lang ng amount. Then pag hinanapan ka, of course dapat sure ka na may mabibigay ka na proof. Lahat ba ng 30aud galing sa parents mo? Alam ko yung iba dito, at least half of that is cash/bank deposit.. mas preferred eto kasi migrant ka, paano mo matustusan ang sarili pag andun ka na, at hindi kagad meay work doon. Mas mainam na hanapan mo ng paraan, basahin mo ang website ng QLD. Mas ok na meron ka na naka ready.
