Accountant

TasBurrfoot · June 2014

By the way, is anyone planning to take CA Australia? I have sent an o'seas assessment sa ICAA few months ago. And as expected i need to take the Australian Tax and Business Law sa Australian University before i can proceed with the exams. The other units required were exempted. I'm just curious about the procedures in applying in University, time frame in completing the units/ courses and the cost. They gave me choices whether to take the conversion programs or take only the 2 required units. They also mentioned that they will keep my file for 2 years. Wala pa akong nahahanap na pinoy pwedeng mapagtanungan sa ngaun.

CPA Australia na yan...

batchmate @vhoythoy kelan na lipad mo?
Hanap pa ako ng pakpak hehehe. Nope, mag initial entry lang kami sa Melbourne by end of July for 4 days then balik din SG. I will get muna ung Company bonus namin this Dec then anytime i can decide na mag move sa Australia. Probably anywhere from Feb-Apr next year

Hahaha! Napa isip tuloy ako. Hopefully makahanap kaagad ng trabaho. Pautang na lang nung bonus mo if ever. :P

Naku maliit lang un wala lang talga pera kaya mahirap mapasubo lalo na may family hehe

Settle muna, then yung partner's visa ni misis. Nauna kasi yung visa sa kasal. Anyway, ang plan naman is to be a CPA.

hello kababayans!

ask ko lang po, sa mandatory req ng cpaa no.1 "accounting systems and analysis" - accepted na po kaya ung "systems analysis and design" un po kc ung nakalagay sa tor ko. all other mandatory req meron naman po ako, and optional req as well. but im having doubts about my career exp. 3-4yrs accounts payable analyst ako then change of employer sa govt naman as accountant for 2 yrs.

sana po makpasa ko.

this forum is such big help for me. thank you so much in advance!

dapogi · July 2014

@shye428 try mapping all your subjects in this excel file. I'm sure more than 1 yung pwede mag fall in that category (like accounting-related computer subjects).

regarding experience, make sure naka latag sa Certificate of Employment mo yung responsibilities mo (pati sahod, kasi nadali ako jan sa unang assessment). If accounting in nature naman yung ginagawa mo sa government, then you need not worry. God bless.

@TasBurrfoot

Hi. Is the internal auditor postion still open/available? Thanks in advance.

ImB · August 2014

Mga sir, me tanong po ako. Nahihirapan po kasi ako kumuha ng syllabus sa scool namin. Hindi na raw sila nagbibigay ng previous years na syllabus so ang ibinigay nila eh 2014 na syllabus which is hindi un ung year na nag aral ako so me mga subjects na hindi tugma sa transcripts ko.

Sabi naman ng registrar eh subject description daw kailangan ko since eto daw hinihingi sa kanila ng mga nag mimigrate.

Ang tanong ko po eh ano po ba talaga ang kailangan subject description o syllabus?

Puede ko po bang isubmit yung 2014 syllabus na binigay sakin khit hindi un yung year na nagaral ako?

Salamat po sa sasagot, nalilito lang po talaga ko.

dakila78 · August 2014

Hi Everyone! First post in this thread

I've been backreading but I haven't seen anyone with a case like mine. I plan to study Masters of Professional Accounting in AU next year, but my undergrad degree here in Phils was non-accounting. Once I finish my Masters after 2 years, will I be eligible to apply under Accountant (General)? Or should I take an undergrad degree in AU to be eligible instead? Thanks in advance!

as long as you can fulfill the subjects where the accounting bodies based their criteria on skilled migration asssessment, you should be okey...

BUT the most important thing that you need to ask is, where will you get the points you will be needing to merit an invite to apply for a visa? consider this first before you make any investment in time and money.

all the best!

attila · August 2014

@TasBurrfoot hi tas thanks for responding to my query

yes i know this is a very big risk on my part. there is no assurance that i can apply for a pr visa even after studying in AU.

here's the course list of the masters course i found in AU:

Accounting Principles
Cost and Management Accounting
Corporate Accounting
Auditing Corporate Entities
Accounting Theory
Computer-based Accounting Systems
Business Communications
Economics Statistics
Aspects of Corporate Finance
Commercial and Corporate Law for Managers
Australian Tax Law
Organisational Behaviour

been looking at the points and would i be eligible? here's my computation (and assumptions):

age - 25
english language - 10
qualifications - 15 (masters degree in acctg)
au study reqt - 5
study in a regional area - 5
total - 60

note that i do not have a bachelors degree in accounting but the masters courses they offer in AU accept applicants with non-accounting backgrounds

60 is acceptable score for now...

However another thing you should consider is that by the time our masters is finished; what will be the status of accountants in terms of getting visa as skilled migrant.

Not to discourage you but as this will be a very big investment, make sure you have thought about this over and over again...
