    for the Software Engineer occupation, the assessing authority is ACS. good thing ACS does not require any IELTS score for their skills assessment. :)

    Hello again! Does anyone from this forum applied for WA state sponsorship who is an industrial engineer? We hope to apply. Not included kasi sa list nila. I thought IE can qualify for engineering professionals not elsewhere qualified. May nakapag try na ba? Thank you.

    opo. IE din..
    i was trying to apply for the SS (176) before Skillselect, para lang mapabilis at mataas ang points.. pero un nga..walang IE sa WA, tapos late na kasi ako nag apply for SA.. May 2012 ako nag-apply, eh closed na rin ang SA nun, dahil every July nga nag-oopen..

    tinuloy ko na lang na independent (175), ayun napabilis din nmn po ang processing..
    so kung okay naman ang score nyo ngaun sa 189, eh ituloy nyo na lang..
    otherwise, you will have to choose either SA or NSW yata ang merong IE..

    hi guys, just wanna ask if statesponsorship visa is easier than skilled independent visa? easier interms of requirement?
    may additional criteria/requirement, some SS that can have tighter requirements to the general DIAC requirements
    - states have their own state nominated occupation list (SNOL), some occupations might not be there
    - states have sometimes have english requirements for certain occupation
    - states have some work experience requirements..

    so ang general rule:
    - if you dont have enough points (for those in SOL1), go for SS, otherwise dont bother...
    - if your occupation is in CSOL Sched 2, it is a must that you have SS

    @hunter_08 depende yun tulad ng sabi ni psychoboy.. Like sa NSW na state, optional ang may EOI number, pero sa ibang state they need your EOI number before ka mag apply for their SS.

    ah ok..so good to go na pla kmi for NSW SS. it's our only hope since di namin nameet yung ielts score na 7.0 in all component :)
    Hi @aprilcruise, questions lang po:
    1. Confirmed po ba na 6.0 lang ang kelangang IELTS score for NSW SS? - For IT professionals i.e., SW engr, developers, sys analysts.
    2. Musta na SS application nyo, approved na ba? gano katagal ang processing?

    Salamat po

    Good day to all.

    May naka State sponsor na po ba sa NSW na ang IELTS score ay below 7? Gaano po katagal ang processing? By the way, Software engineer po ang nominated occupation ko.

    Thank you sa mga magrereply.

    Hello! I'm new here in this forum...I have read several articles but still overwhelmed & confused. Thank you sa step by step procedure that you provided @lock_code2004. I have several questions if you don't mind though. I recently talked to a migration agent, hindi pa nman po kmi nagbayad but based on his assessment our occupations lists, we can meet the 60 pts daw po if we pass the required IELTS. (1) Can we directly apply for Visa 189?

    He also said that we are qualified for State sponsorship. But mine is open now in ACT and my husband sa SA. We are in Sales / Retail / Customer Service Manager area. Unlike po ung mga professional occupation like doctors, dentist etc na pwede anywhere in Australia. (2) Can you provide the link of the assessing authority in our field. So we need to seek approval with them first before we can lodge for EOI? (3) How can we verify na pwede rin ung Occupations namin in other state aside from the one he mentioned?

    Thanks

    dun po sa mga nag-apply ng SS sa SA, gumawa rin ba kayo ng research paper? Pinapagawa kasi kami ng MA namin and this will be part of the application cover sheet.
    Hello @baronann, I am also looking at SA for the state sponsorship, ask ko lng po, uunahin po ba ung sa assessing authorities bago ka maglog ng SS application form? Medyo naguguluhan ko kse ako sa process ng VETASSESS for my Occupation prang complicated esp kung overseas. Thanks po
