I would like to ask for your help regarding the online application to EA. I have read in their booklet that they prefer online application, and to do this one must need to upload colour scans of the original documents. I have an inquiry regarding the IELTS test results. Do I still need to upload the scanned copy of the orginal TRF? Or should I ask the testing center to provide the original TRF to EA? Also, since uploading of colour scans of original documents is done in the online application, does this mean that I don't anymore need to prepare the certified true copy of my docs. Please enlighten me. Thank you very much.

@princessrhej, yes di na kelangan pa-ctc mga docs, basta malinaw scan. Yung IELTS scanned copy lang din. Gawa ka na account sa EA para pwede na mag key-in ng details and attach docs kahit di pa kumpleto.
Pag nasa process ka na with DIBP (after EA), dun naman kelanagn pa certify ang mga docs.

Hi everyone! Patulong nmn po gumawa ng CDR. Electronics engineer po ako working in a government agency here in the philippines as electronic security technician (handling CCTV/access control). Nahihirapan po ako Gumawa ng CDR/ career episode. Tska cinecertify pa po ba ung CDR? Or kailangan pa ng proof coming from my boss? Help po. Eto po email ko [email protected]
pilot_markerMelbourne Posts: 147Member Joined: Nov 25, 2014
@ventan refer ka sa EA handbook, di na kelangan ng certified true copy ng docs sa EA, basta malinaw kopya pag inaupload mo, may certain DPI settings. One of the requirements ng EA ay Certificate of Employment, where in pipirma ang either HR or boss mo, anyone of them, so that serves as proof na.

@sweetheart, pwedeng pwede! In my opinion you can try nominated occupation either "Electronics Engineer" or "Engineering Technologist", check mo sa description sn mag fall ang job description mo na ilalagay sa Certififcate of Employment ng past and present employers mo. As of now both occupation is in SOL, it means AUS are in shortgae of these occupations. You can apply visa 189 and 190 as one of the options.

@pilot_marker thanks! i'm drafting my CDR na. anong engineering field po kayo? naguguluhan pa rin po kasi ako. i was thinking na sa EA ako magpapaassess pero nung nagtanong po ako sa agent sa VETASSESS daw po ako dapat. Electronics Engineer po ako pero may work po ako as a technician (electronic security- CCTV, Access Control System) sa government agency dito po sa phil. my current position is electronics and communication equipment technician but im a PRC licensed Electronics engineer. sa EA po kaya ako or sa VETASSESS? help!!!

@ventan. Tied up ka na ba sa Agent? In my opinion ikaw pa rin mag decide kung san ka mag pa assess, Kung san ba sa tingin mo pasok ang Job Description mo (what you are actually doing in your Job) in comparison sa description ng SOL at Ng assessing body. Your agent may have a point also. Consider as well your degree also matters pag dating sa DIBP, mas maganda kung in line yung studies mo sa SOL, but not all the time. (see qualification: Here ) Hehe sana di ka lalo naguluhan.
Some agents will suggest alot of things making thing looks complicated that you will be convinced that you really need their service, May kilala ako na nag agent, He is an engineer, ang advise sa kanya kumuha ng assessment from both EA and Vetassess, pareho naman siya na nakakuha ng positive assessment. Humaba lang process kasi chinecheck ng agent yung CDR at essay niya every time, umabot ng 1 year ang pagawa ng CDR niya. At the end, namili sila which assessment to submit. In my friend's mind ang galing daw ng strategy ng agent niya worth it daw kahit nagbayad sya ng malaki. In my mind I was able to get my CDR in 5 months naman, wala pa ako binayaran na agent fee. Anyway its all upto to the applicant how confident and or time he has to fully understand the procedures.

I would like to ask for your help regarding the online application to EA. I have read in their booklet that they prefer online application, and to do this one must need to upload colour scans of the original documents. I have an inquiry regarding the IELTS test results. Do I still need to upload the scanned copy of the orginal TRF? Or should I ask the testing center to provide the original TRF to EA? Also, since uploading of colour scans of original documents is done in the online application, does this mean that I don't anymore need to prepare the certified true copy of my docs. Please enlighten me. Thank you very much.

Hehe sana di ka lalo naguluhan.
Some agents will suggest alot of things making thing looks complicated that you will be convinced that you really need their service, May kilala ako na nag agent, He is an engineer, ang advise sa kanya kumuha ng assessment from both EA and Vetassess, pareho naman siya na nakakuha ng positive assessment. Humaba lang process kasi chinecheck ng agent yung CDR at essay niya every time, umabot ng 1 year ang pagawa ng CDR niya. At the end, namili sila which assessment to submit. In my friend's mind ang galing daw ng strategy ng agent niya worth it daw kahit nagbayad sya ng malaki. In my mind I was able to get my CDR in 5 months naman, wala pa ako binayaran na agent fee. Anyway its all upto to the applicant how confident and or time he has to fully understand the procedures.

Ano specialisation mo?
Did you monitor your status sa EA website?
After "Queud for Assessment" status, nagchange ba siya to something like "Assessment in Progress"? If so, ilang days bago lumabas result?
