    Question about partner skills points.

    "You can receive five points if, when you are invited to apply for this visa, your partner provides evidence that they:
    had nominated an occupation on the same skilled occupation list as your nominated occupation"

    Ibig sabihin ba dapat same kami ng occupation?
    Developer Programmer ako, dapat siya din? What if yung skill niya nasa SOL pero hindi IT? Let's say, accountant?

    @thisisme1 Not necessarily same occupation. Dapat nasa same list nung sayo. So kung nasa SOL ka, dapat yung occupation nya nasa SOL din (not CSOL).

    @MayoMay mukhang tama naman steps pero yung mga site outdated na. www.border.gov.au na ang official site. most likely nandun pa rin ang mga items na yan.

    Yung sa expenses, meron din details sa site. pero mukhang 250k is a good estimate. grabe naman ata ang half a million. well di din ako sure kung pwede umabot dun. nasa skills assessment pa ang focus ko ngayon.

    Mga sir, kailangan kaya talaga ung #4 "Country where Employment was Completed" sa COE? Di naman kasi ako naassign sa ibang bansa, dito lang talaga sa pinas. Di kasi stated sa COE na binigay saken yung bansa pero nakalagay naman yung Country ng company sa letterhead. May experience na ba kau sa ganitong COE?

    Hi guys,

    Nagpa re-assess na ako sa ACS before, ang CoE ko dun is February pa. Hindi pa ako lumilipat ng company at ang nakasulat naman dun is "employed from XX-XX-XXXX up to date."

    1. Kelangan ko pa ba kumuha ng bagong CoE if balak ko magpa re-assess now?
    2. If lilipat ako ng company, pwede ko pa bang gamitin yung lumang CoE from my manager na nakasulat na employed ako from XX-XX-XXXX up to date? Tapos mag dagdag nlng ako ng CoE from HR na may end date?

    Reason is, ang hirap kumuha ng CoE from my manager.. ayoko na sana bumalik sa kanya para kumuha ng bagong CoE para lang lagyan ng end date.

    Thanks guys for the answers.

    Hi guys. Question po regarding Statutory Declaration/Affidavit. Ako ba dapat magprepare nito using particular template or pwede ba ito hingin sa Notary Public then give them the details needed as per ACS requirements like job roles and responosibilites, employment dates, etc. and sila ang maglalagay nito sa affidavit?

    @thisisme1 Hello, what specific ICT skill po yung pina-assess nyo. I'm a licensed ECE (TIP-Manila) and currently working as a Network Voice Design Engineer (Cisco). Am planning to take the skills assessment this August pero naguguluhan ako kung sa ACS ba dapat tayong mga ECE or sa EA. Pa-update naman po sa result ng assessment nyo. Thanks and God bless po!

    ang alam ko under statutory declaration yan
    parang wala akong nababasa dito na may witness sila, though nd kc ako nagundergo nito, ang alam ko lang is may document na signed ng manager mo or ung pwede mong gawing reference.

    as much as possible, get all documents to proved you work there, especially kung cliniclaim mo. Payslips, contract, ITR, salary change, certificates, etc.

    Sa detailed coe, ako na gumawa tapos sinend ko sa hr para pirma and logo/header nlng ilagay nila. Nd na sila mahassle pa.

    sabihin mo nlng for visa processing/travel purpose. yan ata nilalagay nung iba.

    Assessment. Para alam mo ano dapat target-hin sa english test. kung kelangan mo ba ng 20 pts or 10pts. pero sabay mo na review and processing.

    Hi guys,

    Nagpa re-assess na ako sa ACS before, ang CoE ko dun is February pa. Hindi pa ako lumilipat ng company at ang nakasulat naman dun is "employed from XX-XX-XXXX up to date."

    1. Kelangan ko pa ba kumuha ng bagong CoE if balak ko magpa re-assess now?
    2. If lilipat ako ng company, pwede ko pa bang gamitin yung lumang CoE from my manager na nakasulat na employed ako from XX-XX-XXXX tapos open ended yung date? Tapos mag dagdag nlng ako ng CoE from HR na may end date?

    Reason is, ang hirap kumuha ng CoE from my manager.. ayoko na sana bumalik sa kanya para kumuha ng bagong CoE para lang lagyan ng end date.

    Thanks guys for the answers.
