    @bookworm

    yung agent ko hindi raw nya inaadvise sa TAS kasi maliit daw na state yun probably walang makukuhang work sa profession kahit nagoffer sila nang ss dun.

    anyway July 1st naman na ngayon malamang may reshuffling of skills na...sana may updates.

    @bookworm

    salamat

    hinihintay ko talaga kung ako tatanungin sa NSW e pero I think there is no way magbubukas to at the moment para sa occupation ko so far ang pinaka malinaw na linya ko lang is dito sa ACT kaso currently on LIMITED yung occupation ko pero one thing i noticed was nawala yung announcement last march na nagsara na sila tumanggap

    so i think tumatanggap sila ulet pero yung update on skilled lists dito wala pa

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...

    @kremitz that is sooo good to hear po. pwede po kami sa 263111 (Comp Network & Systems Engr) kaso my hubby needs to bag the all 7 sa IELTS. Hindi kasi sya pwede sa VIC kasi sa requirement nila na minimum 3 yrs work experience. Pwede din sa 313112 (ICT Customer Support Officer), mas madali for us. kaya inaabangan ko din talaga ang ACT kasi sila lang nag-o-open sa 313112 e.

    From ACT:

    Notice about the ACT Occupation List - 2 July

    Applicants are advised that the ACT Occupation List published in February 2014 (below) is the current list for ACT nomination. It is to be used to determine your eligibility for ACT nomination along with the nomination criteria outlined in the 190 Guidelines. The demand for occupations in the ACT will be reviewed in August 2014, and an updated list will be published here. We are unable to provide information about which occupations will be open, limited or closed in the updated list until the analysis of demand is undertaken and the list is published.

    @wizardofOz yes po, mejo mas madaming details need i-prepare for ACT. as in essay talaga on why ACT and not the other big and more famous states. Yung sa job prospects pati, they're may really check it kasi you have to include the URL kung saan mo nakita yung job postings.
