    @jvframos: If max points ibigay ng EA for my Education and Work Experience then I am at 55 points. Expected ko results from EA next month. I'm looking into retaking IELTS for additional 10 points. But will try first to lodge EOI @55 +5 points with WA while reviewing for IELTS. Baka sakaling mapa-aga ang invite. Naghahabol din po kasi ako ng age... I will turn 40y/o sa Feb 2014.

    Thanks for replying. :-D

    yan ang naging dilema namin, kasi 40y/o na din ako kaya ang baba na ng score ko sa age, then we found out na yung 5 years exp ko is not related so minus points na naman jun. i tried na pataasi pa score ko sa ielts but it seems hard to get 8.0 band score kaya nag settle na lang ako sa 7.0 magastos din kasi mag ielts. beside, hinabol naming din young july 1 deadline for direct WA SS application.

    di kasi namin alam kung gano magiging turn out time kapag di na direct SS application kya nag proceed na kami. hope na magmata pita tayo sa WA. Let's all pray for that dream.

    @jvframos - namisinterpret namin ung question na "does the applicant meets the australian study requirement?" We thought it refers na equivalent to australian education ung bachelors degree ng husband ko. Kc sa ACS assessment it states na ung completed Bachelors Degree ng husband ko is comparable to AQF degree.
