Thanks for the response. Hindi pa ako nagpapa-assess. I checked the points system muna and if 10 lang ang PLM under qualification, I only get 55 pts. overall.
Even if my assessment is positive, kailangan pa rin ma-meet ang 60 pts. cut-off hindi ba? Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks!

english - min of 7 in each component?
Educ - my sis is also from PLM and managed to claim 15 points, so should be 15
Employment - kung same company ka employed, nag aacumulate nmn yang work experience so kung ilang years ka at the time of application un ang pwede mo iclaim. Btw, when ka nag paassess before ba ng jan 2015? kasi db recently meron na dinededuct for VETASSESS requirement.
Nomination - correct
Joined: Dec 12, 2013
tanong ko lang kasi isa sa requirement ng WA para manominate ka is to have an offer of employment/contract, nakakuha ka na ba nun? May friend kasi ako na same occupation and magaapply din ng state nomination sa WA kaso di maituloy dahil kailangan ng contract. Kung meron, pano ka nagapply online lang ba?
salamat ng marami.

Nareceive ko yung Vetassess result in January 2014. Maapektuhan ba yung points?

RN po ako sa Pinas at Australia. Balak ko po mag apply for 189 visa para maging resident na doon sa Au. I have more than 4 years experience sa nursing sa Pinas pero more than 3 years lang yung paid. Ang situation ko po medyo hindi kasi ako sure na maclaim ko ang 5 points for overseas employment kahit na may 3+ years paid experience na ako. Ganito po kasi ang naging employment status ko sa Pinas:
2 years and 2 month - under Department of Health po kami pero sa ospital nagwork. Ang program ay RN Heals. Ang salary ay 8000 lang. Wala pong payslip, walang ITR kasi minimum wage earner.
May certificate of employment naman po. Pero paano ko po makukuha ang ITR since wala naman. Paano po ba makakuha ng affidavit of tax exemption?
then, nacontinue ako sa same hospital as CONTRACTUAL employee.
1 year and 1 month - contractual - 12000 ang salary - May kaltas sa tax daw. Wala ring payslips, ewan ko kung may ITR.
Meron naman po akong certificate of employment sa 2, pati sa supervisor ko na pinag isa na lang.
As of the moment, wala akong Payslips, ITR, Contracts to provide as a proof. Pero kumuha ako ng Payroll sa bank via bank statement. Andoon po lahat ng binayad sa akin ng gobyerno eversince. Pwede na po ba iyon?
Yung Contracts naman po, baka pwede kong makuha sa HR ng ospital at HR ng DOH.
Yung ITR po ang pinakaproblem ko. Paano po ba iyon? Pwede po bang kumuha sa BIR or need ko pang icontact ang ospital na pinagtrabahuhan ko?
Salamat po.
