The problem is people here I notice ask HR for the wrong document/use the wrong term - COE hence they usually get turned down by HR for such a request. It’s an employment reference letter that needs to be asked. This is a common issue with Filipino clients we handle.
You only do stat dec if the supervisor cannot use a headed letter. With Coolitz case, my understanding is he can have his supervisor sign the reference letter on a letterhead therefore no stat Dec required.

With regards to your question re skills assessment and English test, I usually tell clients if they can do both at the same time then why not but best to really concentrate on preparing the documents as this is more tedious and time consuming than booking and sitting on an English test.
During initial consultation with me, whenever prospective clients tell me that they’ll do English first before focusing on skills assessment, I tell them they should do the other way around. You have time to do English test whilst your application is being processed. Sayang oras if on hold lahat just because your concentrating on English test.

Make sense. Yun yun din ang plano ko.. Thanks alot! Also, po I am currently working in another country right now . Then I know po na yung company ko..kapag na hingi ka nga COE wala kasali na Job Description.
Pano po yun? Reference letter? then signed by my immediate manager before.. papa notarize din po?

Ask ko lang sana about lodging yung work experience sa ACS. Sa isang company 2 yung naging position ko. So ilalagay ko sya per position at ung tenure (start and end date).
Tpos same document (COE 1) ang gagamitin ko sa both entries? parang ganito po ba?
entry 1: Position 1 Feb 12, 2007 - April 1, 2008 - attachment: COE 1
entry 2: Position 2 April 2, 2008 - April 13, 2010 - attachment: COE 1
Tsaka saang field po iuupload yung resume/CV?
Thanks in advance po ulit.

I had my ACS assessment last February 2019. Back then, i was assessed to have 7yrs and 8mos of relevant work exp. So by June, i will have exactly 8yrs of relevant work exp already. I havent changed role and employer since my last assessment.
Do i need to apply for reassessment if i want to claim the extra 4mos of work exp on June?
Thank you po in advance.

The following employment after November 2014 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261111 (ICT Business Analysts) of the ANZSCO Code.
I started working 5 November 2012. So 2 years dineduct nila. So question is, sa EOI, anong date gagamitin ko para magclaim ng points?
1. From December 1, 2014 ba since sabi sa letter ay "after November 2014" daw yung considered or:
2. From November 5, 2014 since doon nag 2 years yung employment ko?
Thanks po sa sasagot!

I am currently working po in another country right now and then yung previous company ko po is from Philippines and honestly hinde kasali ang JD pag na hinge ng COE. Kasi may format sila pina follow.. I can message my previous manager for a reference letter, pero po ipa pa notarize ko po yun? If so, I'm confused kung paano eto gagawin since nasa ibang bansa ako na work ngayon. Thanks a lot for your info.

1. Do I need to submit all COE/Reference Letter from ALL my previous jobs? or just the past 10 years? (basing from PR points).
2. Is there a minimum # of months stay in a company? I have a COE though the company only lasted for around 2 months. Will ACS count this?
2. Do you have any format for "Statutory Declaration"? I need one for 2 company. Please send. I found the sample in the ACS guidelines but it is too short and don't know if that is the only content needed.
‘I can confirm that (applicant name) carried out the duties and role specified in this document at (company name) as I was their (supervisor, colleague, manager etc.) who interacted with them and witnessed their work on a regular basis throughout their employment. ‘
I also found this https://www.justice.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/embridge_cache/emshare/original/public/2019/02/b2/8557cf224/statutory-declaration-form.DOC just not sure if this is the right one.
3. Can the Statutory Declaration be CTC'd in the Philippines? Where in the Phil?
Please send me more information on this.
I appreciate any answer you will provide.
Thanks,
Em
