@superluckyclover eto po yung changes effective Jan 1 2015: "Applicants will need to hold a qualification which is assessed as comparable to the required educational level for their nominated occupation in a highly relevant field and one year of employment that is highly relevant and at the required skill level.Additionally, based on the applicant’s qualification and employment evidence provided within the last 10 years, VETASSESS will determine the date at which the applicant is deemed skilled based on closely related employment. "
So prior to that, kung 5 years total work experience na ako. Qualified ako to claim 10 points sa skillselect. But due to the recent changes po ng vetassess, ang ma credit lang na work exp ko will be 4 years nalang (5 less 1 for post-qualification). So ang ma claim ko pa rin na points sa skillselect for work exp will be 5 points only. Sayang kaya na sana ng 60 kung walang bagong requirements.
