Hello po. Question, may naka encounter na po ng paghingi ng Employment Reference Letter with the same company pero may 2 tenures ka with them? Same position/title/role pero may gap between the two tenures kasi lumipat ka ng ibang company tapos bumalik ka sa kanila?

For example ganito po yung scenario:

Software Engineer | November 2011- May 2012 | Company A
Application Developer | June 2012 - Oct 2013 | Company B
Software Engineer | November 2013 - April 2016 | Company A

Ano po yung experience niyo dito? Mas okay po ba na pag isahin nalang yung Employment Reference Letter ng 2 tenures or separate document nalang?

Thank you po.

Tingin ko dapat magkaibang reference. Kasi considered ibang career episode na yung pagbalik mo sa kanila.

Salamat po sa pagsagot sir.

Im in the process of collecting payment evidences for employment beginning 2005 and so far challenging siya.

2005-2010: ITR complete; payslip cannot be retrieved, payroll system decommissioned
2012-2021: ITR missing year 2012; payslip missing start of 2012
2021-2022: no ITR for current year; payslip cannot be used, no earnings reflected, only deductions.

Question: enough na ba na SSS, Pag-Ibig, PhilHealth lang ang isubmit? Meron ba dito na ito lang ang nasubmit tapos hindi naman nagkaproblem?

Help! and TIA!

Newbie here. Bakit po pala need niyo mag submit ng ITR sa ACS? Di po ba enouogh na yung Employment Reference Letter na nka indicate yung sahod mo sa kanila? Thanks po.

Nope. You always need to supply at least 2 payment evidence per work experience document.
Refer to Skills Assessment Information section > ACS Application Checklist for more info.

Silent reader here, ask ko lang po kung meron na dito nakapagappeal and receive a positive result? hindi kc tinanggap ung isang work ko kc na almost 3yrs, same naman po ng ibang work ko as Network Engineer pero iba lang title. Also, nakita ko sa ACS site na pg ngappeal at same result ndi kna pde mgpaassess ult with the same ANZCO code, meaning mawawalan ka agad ng chance to process for your PR? Thanks in advance.

The outcome letter is self explanatory, your experience weren’t recognised due to the reasons stated in there. If you want to appeal it, you’ll need to make sure the supporting documents you’ll be providing will be sufficient and that the duties you provide are aligned with the ANZSCO duties.

Ano po yung best way para maisawan ito at tumaas ang chance na ma approve? Will try to backread din po if may sagot na sa question ko. Thank you po.

I can’t really give you a concrete advice on what you need to do based on limited information. - this isn’t what is expected from a registered migration agent. Need to know all facts first to be able to guide you. Perhaps start with reaching out to ACS to query the results. All the best.

Hi Madam Rhea,

I have teammates na narecognised ung experience nila and they are all PR now. Does ACS accept if I send the Employment Letter of them to support my appeal? Also, if i appeal i dont think I can submit a document. Thanks

I cannot make further comments as I have very limited information. Cannot provide professional advice based on bits and pieces of information on a forum. You can directly liaise your questions to ACS.

Hello po,

This is my appeal result.

Just want to ask if I can submit a NEW skills assessment for Systems Analyst with revised job description for employer 1 and updated reference letter and payment evidence for employer 3?

This forum isn’t the appropriate medium to discuss your case in full detail. If you want a professional advice you do the consultation properly not over the forum. It’s like asking a doctor to diagnose you over the phone. If that makes sense. I can only give insights here but not a formal advice due to the information restrictions available.

Question po. Diba po bawat tenure mo sa isang employer ay isang entry ng PDF file dapat sa ACS?

Meaning nandon yung Employee Reference Letter or Affidavit pag wala ERL at Payment Evidence (ITR, Payslips, government records, etc.). Tapos ano po gamit niyo na PDF editor para pag isahin? Yung iba dito sabi nila Nitro PDF.

Just use Word, and save it as PDF, or print it as PDF.

Hi! Hope everyone is doing fine!

I'll soon be applying for assessment in ACS.
I graduated BS Computer Science in a Section 2 university last 2014.

I'm currently working at a known bank here in the PH as an IT Security Specialist since Feb 2018. Is it right that I won't include my previous work since it's not related to the ANZSCO I am applying? Also, is there a possibility that they will deduct from my years of experience?

It's up to you if you want to include it or not since ACS will still assess it nevertheless. Since you have an overseas degree, ACS will require you to have at least 2 years (or more) of work experience in your nominated occupation. You can only claim work experience after the deemed date.

Since you’re from a section 2 university, 5 years will be deducted from your experience not just 2. You only claim experience for relevant duties. There’s no point getting yourself into the trouble of chasing documents for experience which you think are not relevant.

may alam po ba kayong nago-offer ng service for skill assessment na hindi ganun kamahal(below 1500AUD)? or to be specific yung pag-draft ng work reference letter? 3 out of 5 ng previous employers ko are willing to sign the reference letter kahit ako na daw mag-draft. or baka meron po kayong template na pwede gamitin as reference? ANZSCO code ko po ay 263112 - Network Administrator. TIA

It‘s not just about employers willing to sign it also involves a lot of factors like tailoring the letter to make sure it can be used during the visa application stage, checking that your other supporting documents comply as well. There are also instances that issues arise during the actual preparation wherein the applicant struggles to provide the supporting docs, inconsistencies are discovered etc. so best not to just aim for letter assistance as that’s not the be all and end all of skills assessment. In my over 10 years of professional experience within the industry, I’ve seen infinite issues applicants encounter that I myself wouldn’t agree to just provide service for employment reference letters only. I need to handle the whole skills assessment process or won’t engage a client. So just an advice, ensuring that your letters are professionally done doesn’t mean you’ve covered your grounds at all aspects in the skills assessment stage. You’re better off getting the assistance for that whole stage to ensure a professional has definitely reviewed your case. You’ll have more peace of mind that way.

Hello, anyone here from Accenture (currently employed) na nakapagrequest ng letter of explanation along with COE? Meron na kasi ng COE, pero ang problem is wala daw silang template or hindi sila makapagbigay ng letter of explanation why they cannot provide detailed JD sa coe or employment ref letter. Yung stat dec/affidavit tapos na rin. Eto nalang talaga problema.

We already logged ticket, pero hindi rin aware yung hr na nakausap namin about this. Any tips po kung pano kayo nakakuha? Thanks!

I'm not connected with Accenture anymore, but they were able to provide me a Letter of Explanation through email lang. It seems they do not provide Employment Refence Letter, whether you are currently employed with them or not.

Yes, that’s correct. All our clients from Accenture had similar situation so this means CoE, explanation letter and stat dec are needed.

Hello,

Anyone encountered the same scenario?:

I have a previous ACS Skills Assessment and will submit a new one (coz more than 60 days has lapsed).

The End date fields for my Employers are uneditable. I need to update the end date of my current employer to the date I am submitting my new skills assessment right? System glitch kaya nila ito? hmmm

This result was actually an appeal...Appeal was lodged as I want to include my current job (I was 3mos into the job when I made the appeal)...then they didnt asked for more info with this appeal...they straight away sent the result
