@jandm@Xiaomau82 Sa total experience po nag base ang VIC not sa ACS... Ako na approve sa VIC kahit na may requirements sila na dapat at least 3 yrs work exp for my nominated occupation...1 yr lng na assess sakin ng ACS.
thanks for the info.

Eto pala ang sagot sa tanong ko. So sa VIC working experience kino consider not ACS assessment? how about po sa NSW? ACS daw po ang sinusundan? out of the topic po pero for info na din ng lahat. Thanks!

Kumusta timeline nang mga nag apply for VIC SS?
Just applied sa DIBP nang visa. Uploaded n yung docs ko at meron n akong medicals n complete done last June for my student visa.
Mga kelan kaya ako ma assigned nag CO.. Waiting time is killing me..alam n malapit n finish line eh
may nagrant na ba ng SS for VIC recently? nakikibalita lng..it's been two weeks since naglodge ako ng application for VIC..sana hindi sila masyado mahigpit mag grant..balita ko from other forums madalas sila magreject ng applications..

@jandm: Got granted my VIC SS in1 day. Sa SOL b yung occupation nyo? May parang assigned priority group kasi ata sila. RN yung nominated position k kaya mabilis. di kasi umaabot.nang 20% sa allotted slots ang napupuno kaya mabilis. Lalo n ngayon 2000 n lang from 2300 per occupation. Wait nyo lng at pray dadating n yan.
@tooties wow ang bilis naman ng pag grant syo ng VIC..congrats! nasa SOL naman ung nominated occupation ko..Software Engineer..need lng siguro magwait tlga..patience is a virtue hahaha

@jandm Paminsan depende din sa answer m. kasi onshore ako nag apply currently working n dito, at di k n na nilagay relatives k sa ibang state. So confirmed n commitment k sa Victoria.Which is true naman..hehe
Strict kasi si VIC regarding committment to settle kasi gusto nila yung Tax you earn pupunta sa State of Victoriam
ouch! I just received an email from VIC stating that my application for VIC nomination is not approved..go for PTE na siguro tlga ako next month..aral aral ulit

normally acceptable ang 30k AUD per single applicant then additional 5K per dependent. tas indi namn nagrerequire ng evidence of funds. more on declaration lang Unless they specifically ask for it..

@rich88 puede naman pero i think mahirap magbago decision nila. i am not sure if you can submit new docs to further strengthen your application. advise ko is make sure all your docs are in order saka follow their guidelines like yun sa paggawa ng cv

walang reappeal pero you can reapply after 6 months. gawa ka ng maayos na CV kasi dun nila mostly ibased ang evaluation ng application mo kung tugma ang skills mo sa present requirement nila.

@engineer20 thanks bro.. by the way, binasa ko yung requirements nila sa site. wala naman nabanggit dun about sa letter of commitment? actually, nabanggit lang sa akin yun nung isang agent na tinanungan ko before, need raw ng parang personal letter to the state stating kung bakit mo sila pinili at kung bakit mo gusto mag migrate dun.
can you please enlighten me on this? mejo na-confuse lang ako dito kasi ang nakita ko lang na requirement nila na similar is yung letter of declaration which is totally different from what i'm expecting.

Hi everyone, question lang sana for ICT guys here..
I have 5 years 8 months total experience sa nominated occupation ko (software tester), however, 4 years ang binawas sa akin. So sa ngayon, 1 year 8 months nlng ang natitira.
Question is, nakita ko sa VIC site na for ICT occupation, minimum is 3 years.. Will it be the total years of experience or the years of experience assessed by ACS?
Hope someone can clarify.. thanks!

Afaik, there was apost about this. Yes, the experience will be based from your actual work experience and not from the skills assessment sa Victoria sponsorship..

Sa SOL b yung occupation nyo? May parang assigned priority group kasi ata sila. RN yung nominated position k kaya mabilis. di kasi umaabot.nang 20% sa allotted slots ang napupuno kaya mabilis.
Lalo n ngayon 2000 n lang from 2300 per occupation. Wait nyo lng at pray dadating n yan.

I have 5 years 8 months total experience sa nominated occupation ko (software tester), however, 4 years ang binawas sa akin. So sa ngayon, 1 year 8 months nlng ang natitira.
Question is, nakita ko sa VIC site na for ICT occupation, minimum is 3 years.. Will it be the total years of experience or the years of experience assessed by ACS?
Hope someone can clarify.. thanks!
