    jeff, once na makuha mo na ang target score mo sa ielts and you have 65 pts at hand, i-lodge mo na application for 175. Mabilis ngayon ang processing.

    e papa notaryu ba nyu yung statutory delcaration?

    yung boss ko willing mo sign gagamitin ko tong format:

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    I, {name of your supervisor}, {position of your supervisor} in {employer}, certify that I worked with {your name} for {duration of employment}.

    He worked full time as a {position}.

    As his supervisor (or any position), he performed the following roles and responsibilities:
    -
    - {list all your job roles}
    -

    This letter has been provided upon request of {your name} for whatever legal purpose it may serve him.

    NAME OF SUPERVISOR
    position
    employer
    tel number
    mobile number
    email




    okey lang ba to kahit walang notary?

    Yun 3 employer references ko puro wala notary. Similar format ng ginawa mo. And na-approve naman, although hindi din masama ipa-notary mo. :) Meron naman po hindi masyado kamahalan around Php20-40 / document.

    question po.

    pwede na ba tong e pass ko.

    1. Standard COE (HR style)
    2. Referral from my manager with my broad roles and responsibility (wala na yung company letter head kase nag close na)
    3. contract, payslips and ITR
    4. optional : maybe mag send ako ng statutory dec and again with detail duties and responsibility similar / closely related sa referral ng manager.

    pwede na ba to?

    Hello po,
    Naiinip po ako, ang tagal nung ACS ko. Bale kasi nanghingi sila ng updated employer references, nagkamali kasi ako ng send before. Di ko nasunod yung format na gusto nila pero nasubmit ko na po last March 12 yung docs na yun.

    Ang tanong ko po ay kelan kaya sila magrereply? Another month po ulit?

    Hello po sa lahat. Magtatanong lang po ako. I'm planning to apply for assessment to ACS as a Software Engineer. I'm a licensed ECE at yung school ko ay nasa page 1 ng CEP list. Yung current job ko ngayon (2 years na), ay closely related as Software Engineer ( Planning, designing, programming, installing, support) although Software Developer yung title ko. May 1.9 years akong previous experience as programmer/analyst. What do you think are my chances?

    Almost complete na po yung mga kailangan na documents, including yung COE na nirequest ko with detailed description of duties/responsibilities.

    Hi bmc_cpu! I think pareho tayo ng case, except that 6 years na work experience ko. Pde ka magpa-assess sa ACS kaya lang I'm not sure if how many years of work experience ang kelangan. Kapag sa DIAC (Dept of Immigration and Citizenship) ka kase tumingin, parang dapat ata at least 5 years of Work experience to get points. May pangcheck ata online kung ilang points ka and dapat 65 points ang minimum. Also, pagdating ng July 2012, iba na ulit ung process. Kelangan muna magsubmit ng Expressions of Interest and ma-invite ka ng DIAC to apply for a visa, unlike ngayon na pde ka na agad maglodge ng application for visa (for example 175) bsta may 65 points ka na. :-)

    Hi stolich18. Yun nga e, kailangan ko mag apply agad baka makaabot pa.
    btw, Nakita ko to sa DIAC website "...you must provide evidence that you have been in paid employment in any skilled occupation on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) for at least 12 months in the 24 months immediately before applying.". at least one year yung required ng DIAC na experience for the nominated skill at meron ako 3.9 years na closely-related experience. Min. 3 years yung Overseas experience para magka 5 points ka.

    Yup tama, 3 years para may 5 points sa DIAC. If abot ka ng 65 points, unahin mo na agad magpacertify sa ACS by completing the requirements and submitting an application online. Decide na on what to your nominated occupation would be, if Software Engineer or Systems Analyst or etc...

    Refer to the ACS website about application details: https://www.acs.org.au/index.cfm?action=show&conID=skillassessment

    Criteria: https://www.acs.org.au/public/ska/docs/Summary of Criteria - V4.pdf
    Before applying: https://www.acs.org.au/public/ska/docs/FAQ Section 1 - V3.pdf
    ACS Wizard guide: https://www.acs.org.au/public/ska/docs/Wizard Guide - 2012 - V2.pdf

    Dun sa first link, parang ang minimum tlga sa ACS is 5 years of work experience if I understand it correctly. If ganon nga, bka you might need to consider other visa types like the employer-sponsored visa (457 ata to) pero hindi sya for permanent residence. Someone can correct me here if I'm wrong... Mahal din kase ang ACS application so make sure you meet all the necessary criteria before you apply.

    Hi @bmc_cpu. Ahh di ko alam na group A ang ECE. hihi ECE Graduate din ako. ;-) yup oo nga bilis ng assessment ko eh. Tip ko would be to follow the requirements indicated. Especially cguro ung sa school and sa work experience. I was able to get a COE kase from HR plus may cover letter pa ako from my previous manager and my team lead ngayon. hehehe Di na ako gumawa ng statutory declaration. Both letters are very detailed in terms of my tasks.

    stolich18, yung sa akin COE lang pero detailed yung duties and responsibilities at may comment na dun yung signatory, 2 pages yung COE ko from my present company. Do you think kailangan pa ng cover letter? Tumawag ba sa mga dati mong companies ang ACS?

    ^ not sure if tumawag sila pero wala namang sinabi skn ang HR at team lead/manager ko. hihi yup cguro oks na yang COE mo, nagcover letter lang ako kase walang number of hours by default ung COE na binigay ng HR. Hindi rin nakaindicate if full time ako nagwwork. :-)

    Make sure dun sa COE, may signature and printed on a paper with the company letterhead (yung sakin colored para di ko na kelangan ipa-notarize). Tapos indicate all the necessary details there like ung phone, email nung nagsign. Check mo maigi sa requirements list ng ACS ung details ng document. :-) skn mga 2 pages din ung letter ko, ung sa current company ko 3 pages including yung letter from my team lead. :-)
