@malt, may nabasa po ako dito sa forum, ang sabi kaya sa Mandurah lagi ang destination nila ay dahil may train na nagco-connect sa Perth.

Hello po mga sir and mam. New member here. malaking bagay po na nakita ko tong' site na to. May queries lang po ako about sa application. Pumayag po ang ex-company ko na mabigyan ako ng COE having "Architectural Draftsperson" as a position. Ang problema ung CONTRACT ko hindi na mababago at nakalagay po doon ay "Designer" position..
-Hindi po kaya magkaroon ng conflict if ever ipasa ko sila ng pareho? -Mahalaga po ba ung Original Contract ko or COE will do. Kahit COE lang eh ok na for assessment? At least Architectural Draftsperson ang position ko dun di po ba?

Maraming salamat po!
im assuming sa vetassess ka magpapa-assess... if you look at their requirements: - Cert of Employment + job description (with info: salary, number of hours, permanent/temp) - proof of paid employment (payslip or ITR)..
kung wala ka ng mga basic docs na yan, saka ka lang mag attach ng other docs...
so my opinion, pwde mo ng hindi isama ang contract kung meron ka ng mga basic requirements na employment and paid salary...

Hello mga sir and madam, tanong lang po with regards sa IELTS applying for Architectural Draftsperson position. Ano po ba ang passing mark para sa Australia.. May mga friends po kc ako na sa Canada ang application nila pwede na daw 6.5.. Eh alam ko po iba sa AU. Sana lang nga kung pwede ng 6.5 like for canada. If Im not mistaken depende pa rin sa category ko - 30 y/o 8 years experience sa field ng Architecture. Single. Nsa Section 1 din po ung School ko. Pa-Help nlang po with regards sa grade ng IELTS. Mukhang mahihirapan ako kung band 7.0...

Basically 6.0 in each band score (competent level) is enough to lodge a Skilled visa, but if you need extra points you need to have at least 7.0 ( proficient level) on each band score for you to claim the additional 10points. Check mo sa points test mo kung makaka 60 points(current passmark sa Skill Select) ka.. but of course the higher the points you’ve got, mas higher yung chance na ma-invite ka. Since Archi Draftsperson applyan mo, I believe ang visa path mo is thru State Sponsored (190) so automatic mai-invite ka once your SS is approved. Check mo sa state kung san mo balak magpa sponsor kung ano ang IELTS requirements nila kc they also have their own English ability requirements.Gudluck!..

hellow po sa lahat. napaka helpful po ng forum na ito sa mga nagsisimula pa lng. im planning din po magpa-assess sa vetasses, architectural draftsperson. in my case, yung isang employment ko 2 positions. pano po yan sa COE? kailangan po ba ng COE in each position? thank you po.

Hi guys, question lang po. Dko alam kung meron na nakapagtanong nito pero tanong ko na lang ulit. Ano po pagkakaiba ng civil eng'g draftsperson at civil eng'g technician? magkaiba pa kasi sila sa SOL. Dito sa company namin at sa ibang companies na rin sa US at UK, CAD technician ang tawag sa mga drafters. Dko tuloy alam kung ano ang dapat kong inominate na occupation. Architecture grad ako pero civil and structural na ever since ang linya ng work ko.
Another thing, kapag saktong 8years ang work experience, pwede na kaya yun makakuha ng 15points sa assessment?
Hello po, sensya na, naipost ko ito sa wrong thread. Copy ko na lang po dito. I would like to share na rin my infos, baka sakali mabigyan nyo pa ako ng ibang tips.
I'm currently working in SG for more than 6years now as cad technician (C&S). Prior to that meron na rin akong experience sa pinas of about 1year and 9months as drafter (C&S). I'm planning to nominate civil eng'g draftsperson as my occupation w/c is included in SOL1. Aim ko talaga makakuha ng 7.0 in all bands sa IELTS to claim 10 points. My school is under section 2 (makakuha kaya ng 10points for this?). 31years old (30points)
I also have relatives in Melbourne, pero last option ko na magpasponsor sa kanila kung sakaling di umabot ang points ko.
Maraming salamat and God bless sa lahat ng applicants.

Hi @malq Visa 190 din ako and kakatapos lang ng approval ng State Sponsorship ko and what they required me to do is to provide them a breakdown of the available funds I have for resettlement.
They didn't say anything about cash-on-hand. What they told me was kung anong liquid funds available meron ako na pwede ko pagkuhanan ng pera pag mag settle na ako dun.
Pero yung sinasabi mo na cash-on-hand, hindi cya hinahanap. I hope this answers your question.

Hello, madam Aiwink kumusta po at kay sir Jeycons.
Sir Jeycons, pariho pala tayo 2.5yrs narin kami dito sa SG. Ngayun nag simula na kami mag process sa papers namin ng asawa ko para AU, salamat sa inyo nakaka inspire din kayu nakakawala ng takot papunta dyan. Kasi bagohan papo palang kami so nagpapasalamat sa mga payo dito. Anywayz, Autocad Engineer sa (Oil & Gas) Offshore - yung title ko dito pero yung direct scope ko detailer (2D-3D ACad, Microstation V8i) skills ko at basic knowledge din sa Photoshop, Google Skecthup at Autodesk Inventor. Pero sa mga hiring nakikita ko sa SEEK Job search halos lahat Revit, practicality similar lang sa ACad... Yung misis ko naman HR-Admin Assistant sa Pinas at Senor Payroll Exucutive sa SG (nagbabasa ngayun ng tips para sa IELTS)...hihi
Basically yung assesment namin sa WA yung plano namin ni misis Perth. Salamat po kung may ma aadvise kayu samin before patungo dyan. Kasi ngayun nagbabasa din ako kung saan mag rerent nang kwarto o tirahan sa Perth.
Hanggang sa muli po, Ramil Z.

Maitanong ko sana po po kung ano ang nangyari sa application nyo as university lecturer?
Naging successful po ba? Mag aaply din kaso ako ng university lecturer, kasi iyon ang malakas kung work experience, pero isa akong electrical engineer nag nagtuturo din sa university.
Sana ma share mo sa akin ang mga experience mo. Salamat po ng marami.

@jepgomez hello, although i had 8 years of experience as university lecturer, hindi say and ninominate kong occupation. I applied as architectural draftsman.... that's the easiest way kasi. and if i apply as architect or draftsman, hindi relevant and teaching kaya di ko nagamit young 8 years ko. instead young 5 years ko lang nagamit ko. iba kasi and standard ng architecture sa australia kaya i doubt kung magcocount young teaching ko kaya i opted not to use it.
you can see from my timeline below ang progress ng application ko :-)
if i may ask, ago tinuro mo sa university? check mo sa anzsco description kung pasok young skills mo.

Hello @ca_pogi! Architectural Draftsperson din ang inapplyan namin for State Sponsorship, tamang tama lang nakapaglodge kami ng application before nirelease nila ang revised WASMOL last October 28. Nagkaproblema ako sa EOI ko at nagalala na baka hindi ihonor ng WA ang nomination (if hopefully positive ang application) dahil sa old EOI ko. Pumayag naman sila finally (after several phone calls and emails) na tanggapin ang bago kong EOI. So ngayon inaantay ko na ang results ng SS. So sa kalagitnaan ng mga emails exchange namin nagduda na rin ako na baka hindi matuloy at tumingin sa ACT at NT for state sponsorship at tama ka nga. Medyo mahirap nga maghanap ng employment opportunities sa dalawang states na iyon. Hopefully mareview ng WA ang WASMOL nila dahil marami pa namang opportunities for Draftspersons sa state nila. Praying for you..

@kalamaysi buti ka pa nakapaglodge ng mas maaga. Hopefully maging okay application nyo. I actually pointed that out when I emailed WA. Nagbakasakali ako baka pwede pa maglodge since madaming namang advertisements sa ibig sabihin madami pang needs. Sabi nila monthly nagrereview sila ng WASMOL so abang sbang nalang daw muna ako. haay.. Target ko pa naman mag lodge sana for SS early Dec since lalabas na results ng IELTS and skill assessment sa katapusan.
And yes, yun ang next resort. Visa na employer nominated.
@ca_pogi Hi sa mga arki rito.. ako rin sayang, ndi na umabot, napansin ko rin marami job ads sa WA, and hopefully ma-open uli cla...so abangers nlang nga muna tau..

Hi @jmm, nakapaglodge knb ng visa mo or nasa assessment stage ka pa lang?
Meron din akong mga kakilala na archi, matagal na yung application nila at dumaan pa sa agency. Hanggang sa naabutan sila ng pagbabago ng visa fees at pagtanggal ng WA ng arch'l draftsperson. Di ko rin alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa application nila.

if you look at their requirements:
- Cert of Employment + job description (with info: salary, number of hours, permanent/temp)
- proof of paid employment (payslip or ITR)..
kung wala ka ng mga basic docs na yan, saka ka lang mag attach ng other docs...
so my opinion, pwde mo ng hindi isama ang contract kung meron ka ng mga basic requirements na employment and paid salary...

I'm currently working in SG for more than 6years now as cad technician (C&S). Prior to that meron na rin akong experience sa pinas of about 1year and 9months as drafter (C&S). I'm planning to nominate civil eng'g draftsperson as my occupation w/c is included in SOL1. Aim ko talaga makakuha ng 7.0 in all bands sa IELTS to claim 10 points. My school is under section 2 (makakuha kaya ng 10points for this?). 31years old (30points)
I also have relatives in Melbourne, pero last option ko na magpasponsor sa kanila kung sakaling di umabot ang points ko.
Maraming salamat and God bless sa lahat ng applicants.

They didn't say anything about cash-on-hand. What they told me was kung anong liquid funds available meron ako na pwede ko pagkuhanan ng pera pag mag settle na ako dun.
Pero yung sinasabi mo na cash-on-hand, hindi cya hinahanap. I hope this answers your question.

Hello, madam Aiwink kumusta po at kay sir Jeycons.
Sir Jeycons, pariho pala tayo 2.5yrs narin kami dito sa SG. Ngayun nag simula na kami mag process sa papers namin ng asawa ko para AU, salamat sa inyo nakaka inspire din kayu nakakawala ng takot papunta dyan. Kasi bagohan papo palang kami so nagpapasalamat sa mga payo dito. Anywayz, Autocad Engineer sa (Oil & Gas) Offshore - yung title ko dito pero yung direct scope ko detailer (2D-3D ACad, Microstation V8i) skills ko at basic knowledge din sa Photoshop, Google Skecthup at Autodesk Inventor. Pero sa mga hiring nakikita ko sa SEEK Job search halos lahat Revit, practicality similar lang sa ACad... Yung misis ko naman HR-Admin Assistant sa Pinas at Senor Payroll Exucutive sa SG (nagbabasa ngayun ng tips para sa IELTS)...hihi
Basically yung assesment namin sa WA yung plano namin ni misis Perth. Salamat po kung may ma aadvise kayu samin before patungo dyan. Kasi ngayun nagbabasa din ako kung saan mag rerent nang kwarto o tirahan sa Perth.
Hanggang sa muli po,
Ramil Z.

I actually pointed that out when I emailed WA. Nagbakasakali ako baka pwede pa maglodge since madaming namang advertisements sa ibig sabihin madami pang needs. Sabi nila monthly nagrereview sila ng WASMOL so abang sbang nalang daw muna ako. haay..
And yes, yun ang next resort. Visa na employer nominated.
Thanks @kalamaysi!
