Accountant

LokiJr · April 2012

Tanong lang po...mayroon po ba sa forum na nagstudent visa as an accounting student at ngayon ay PR visa na? Paano proseso nun?

jez24 · April 2012

@janelle7 thanks for your feedback

I thought inde na pwede consider yung first job ko.

janelle7 · May 2012

@jez24 basta paid work even if on contractual basis is considered. It will be to your advantage if you worked for a company that is known globally. Yan ang aking pinaka-magandang tip!

Super effective!

Ako nagpa assess dati sa NIA, IPA na ata sya ngayon. Mabilis lang sila basta complete documentation, parang 2 days lang yung sa akin approved na. Sa school pati na sa courier lang tumagal

hi everyone, check ko lang po sana if anyone has tried or may kakilala kau na non-cpa sa pinas at na-grant ng visa lets say 175/176? im not sure kasi kung makakapasa ang mga non board passers, baka kasi magsayang lang ng panahon at pera.

salamat po

Silhouette · May 2012

hi po, dun sa agency na pinag applayan ko, naka alis yung accountant nila kahit di naman CPA. Depende po ata yun kung ano ang class ng school nyo and of course yung work experience :-)

Hi @OZdreamer, san po kayo nagpa-assess na authority? Napansin ko sa timeline nyo na IELTS test nyo came after nung skills assessment

Silhouette · May 2012

2010 pa kasi yung assessment nya, dati ok lang kahit wala pa ielts... tama ba?

Silhouette · May 2012

July 2010 ata nagbago ng ruling ang assessment ng accountants

hello po! question naman! pede bang i-pursue ung Australian CPA kahit ala pa ko sa Australia? Philippine CPA ako and balak ko na ring magpaassess sa CPA Australia kung acceptable ang distance learning... salamat!

Reply to @chaisan:
Pwede po. Punta ka sa website ng cpa australia, meron mga steps dun for assessment and indicate nila kung anung mga subjects yung kailangan mu pang kunin. You can then register for australia open universities for the classes (pwde 'siguro' ang mga exams sa mga registered testing centres sa pinas like prometric or whatever). Yun nga lang, you may have to do the actual cpa exams in Aus. Why not go for the CA route, baka parehas lang yung kulang mung subjects sayang namn, mas mataas ang level pag CA, recognised kapa sa UK and CDN.

Reply to @Davidx23: Salamat sa advice ha! sige titingnan ko ang CA!

God bless!

How long does it take for the mail to arrive? Two weeks na kasi completed yung CPAA assessment ko wala pa rin yung letter..

aolee · June 2012

viannej08 · June 2012

sa akin April 10 completed ng CPAA tapos na receive ko ang letter April 26

LokiJr · June 2012

Wow di ko alam yun a...so pag nakumpleto mo na yung distance learning na yun, CPA (Australia level) ka na?

balletshoes · June 2012

Thank you sa lahat ng nagreply. Ok I will just wait for mine. I hope I make it before July because I will still have to apply for WA SS. Maximum time for that is four days nalang as of today! Wish ko umabot.

if you have met 12/12 subjects, ano next step? CPAA ako nag pa assess then na meet ko ang 12 subjects, but di ko pa na explore kung paano maging full pledge cpaa. i thot kelangan kang nandun talaga sa aus b4 u can proceed

Hi,

Just wondering, where did you guys have your degree assessed? CPA Australia ba?

balletshoes · June 2012

This is not good. I received negative assessment from CPAA because I failed to complete Accounting Theory which was made mandatory for Accountant occupation last July 2010. Anyone else experienced this? I am a CPA from a Section 1 school. I am really confused as I have completed Theory of Accounts and Auditing Theory. What is this Accounting Theory subject that they are referring to?

Should I appeal? Or apply to NIA instead?

try mo ICAA . Btw ano school mo if you don't mind

TasBurrfoot · June 2012

Hi,

Quick question lang sa mga accountants dito who recently had their assessments sa mga relevant regulatory bodies - how many pages yung syllabus documents ninyo?

From what I can imagine, it would seem like sobrang dami nito...

Appreciate any advise from the folks here.

Cheers!

balletshoes · June 2012

Hi Burberry. Sent you a message.

I am the first of my classmates to get unfavourable result. But then again, they applied two years ago. Sa IPA/NIA, Contemporary Issues in Accounting ang mandatory instead of Accounting Theory. At least I have the former in my syllabus. So try ko dun.

enzo · June 2012

Hi balletshoes. I hope you don't mind asking you that when you said that you received a negative assessment, does it state in the letter that it is a negative assessment?

The reason I'm asking is that 2 to 3 years ago some of my CPA friends received an assessment from CPAA that for the purpose of satisfying the core curriculum criteria they were required to study 3 more subjects (tax, corp. finance & acctng theory). However, it was also stated in the assessment letter that their Bachelor Degree is comparable to Aus tertiary qualifications.

I'm not sure if CPAA has changed its policy since then but what I am saying is you migth still get a positive assessment despite the required subject.

Perhaps you might want to look into an appeal as an option.

God bless.

Reply to @psychoboy: sobrang dami talaga, i think lampas 2" thick yung docs na submit ko, average of 15pages/subject kasi syllabus.

viannej08 · June 2012

Reply to @balletshoes: try to appeal first.. if not, enrol in contemporary issues in accounting theory. you may inquire from your school, it's a new subject in the current 5yr accounting course. dati kasi, optional lang hindi core requirement ang accounting theory, pero ngayon kelangan mong ma pasa in order to have positive assessment.

TasBurrfoot · June 2012

Uhmmm, was there any other person here who got assessed favorably the past year? Which body did it? As we have seem, parang mahigpit ang CPAA.

Cheers!
