i think the general advice given by members here is to take the "Full Skills Assessment (GSM with Points Test Advice) for both qualifications and employment - Australian or Overseas"
so that is 630aud (online) + additional fee for every work experience/company na ipapa-assess mo na you are claiming for work experience points in EOI..

Statement from DIAC
The relevant authority that assessed your skills may also provide an opinion on your skilled employment experience. The department will consider this opinion when awarding points.
so nasa syo na un, if you want to take the risk of not availing the point test advice.
