It's been a year since I last posted here. Magkakaron na ako nang additional year sa work experience!

How long is the validity nang ACS results? Last I heard it was 2 years, but I'm curious if that's changed.

skills assessments are valid for 3 years otherwise stated in the letter na 2 .

Question po sa Affidavit, dapat po ba yung date kung kelan nag sign yung affiant same po sa date kung saan nag sign yung attorney for notary public? Thanks po

This assessment is valid for a period of 24 months from the date of this letter.

Kamusta na @ios_dev?

FrenchMilk · May 2015

Additional question, ano po ang ibig sabihin nito

Consolidate all pages into one PDF document for each qualification and each employment entry

Ganito po ba yun

Isang PDF file - diploma
Isang PDF file - passport
Isang PDF file - lahat ng employment reference and supporting documents?

J_Oz · May 2015

sa employment mo, one pdf for each company na you've worked with. Yan ang natatandaan ko. each employment entry daw e.

Kamusta na @ios_dev?

Oks naman.. eto naghintay lang madagdagan nang work exp para 7 na lang ang kailangan sa IELTS. Magsched ako nang IELTS this month ulit.

I see umandar na yun application mo. Congrats!.. Parang kaialan lang parepareho tayo nang status hahaha.. ilan score mo for 189?

J_Oz · May 2015

@ios_dev Kailan ka madagdagan ng exp? Oo magsched ka na para habol pa, for sure maka 7 ka na sa susunod.

Salamat bro. Yong mga kasabay nga natin before may mga grant na haha. Bale 60 points lang ako sakto. after 2 selections dun ako naselect.

All the best mate!

FrenchMilk · May 2015

@J_Oz thanks for the reply

may question pa po ako tungkol sa Affidavit,

kailangan po ba yung date kung kailan pumirma ang affiant ay pareho sa date kung kailan pumirma ang lawyer?

J_Oz · May 2015

@FrenchMilk Hmm im not sure pero normally kasi sa pagkakaalam ko yong pipirmahan yon in front of the lawyer so dapat same or alam ng lawyer haha, pero sorry hindi ko talaga sure this is legal matters na e.

Company 2 - Service Delivery Consultant - 4 yrs (more on MS Exchange) - IT outsourcing
Company 3 - Senior Associate - 1 y r(more on MS Exchange) - IT outsourcing

Bachelor Degree with ICT Minor i think category na. Am i correct?

mas advisable to apply for an occupation in SOL in case walng state na open. ung sa course not too sure kung consider ICT minor, baka rpl. but i know someone na PLM grad na ECE din, considered ICT major by ACS

Yung HR kase ayaw iincorporate ung JD as in binigay nya ung JD then ung COE sa mgakabilang papel.

THanks!

Hi Guys, I am planning to file an appeal with my result but suitable naman. I've got an AQF Associate Degree but nadeduct yung buong 6 years of my experience based na rin dito https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/7324/Summary-of-Criteria-2014.pdf

I still want to appeal to have an AQF Bachelors Degree.

Over all I have 165 overall credits during my full time education in tertiary level. Section 2 and School and aiming for 15 pts and at least 2 years lang ang magiging deductions.

1st year - 53 Units
2nd year - 36 Units
3rd year - 46 Units
4th year – 30 Units

I have 25% ICT content for a 4 year course.

My question is how do i state my appeal by linking my existing application?

Age=30 PTS
Education=10 if possitive appeal would be 15 pts
Skills Assesment =0 if possitive appeal would be 5 pts.
IELTS=aiming for 6 or 7 in each band

flowercrown19 · June 2015

Hello. Newbie here. Hindi pa ako nakakapagpasa sa ACS but Im starting to collect all the requirements.

Question lang, do you think BSECE falls under ICT major? If yes, ilang years kaya ung deduction nila, kung 2 or 4 yrs? Nominated occupation ko sana is Computer Networks and Systems engineering since more than 6 years na rin ako dun. Target ko nga sana is maka-7 years just in case sa 2-yr less ang result.

Thank you in advance!

baknir · June 2015

@flowercrown19 sir/mam... ICT major po.. gaya nun assessment sa akin... pero 2 years and 6 months ang na deduct po sa akin...siguro po depende pa rin sa CO at sa JD/skills yung deduction...in my case bale 7 yrs and 9 months yung natira (as of February 2015)... pero nadagdagan na po ng 3 months kaya i can claim 8 yrs na po siguro...

priction · June 2015

ur question is a bit confusing. do u have the documents? if yes, just get a notary public lawyer to certify the documents.

Hi guys, newbie rin po sa pinoyau. I'm seeking your advice para po sa case ko:

Bale I have 4 yrs exp (sa August 2015) sa software testing and graduated from Mapua. Gathering pala ako ng requirements for ACS. Though sabi dun sa agency napuntahan ko Section 1 nman daw ung school. Apply sana ako subclass 190.

Ask ko lang kasi may mga nababawas na years. May possibility po ba mabawas ung years? Baka kasi mabawasan pa ako ng points.

Salamat po ulit. :-)

Hi! Anong course mo sa Mapua? Mapua grad din ako, and Positive naman result ng Skills assessment ko. Bale Bachelor degree tas 2 years and binawas. Minimum of 2 years pala ang binabawas nila kaya sa case mo kahit na positive at 2 years ang ibawas e ang matitira lang sayo ay 2 years which is equivalent to 0.

Kunyari 30 points ka sa age, tas 15 points ang degree mo. Meron ka nang 45 points. Tas 10 points sa IELTS. Bale 55 na. Plus 5 points for State Sponsorship kasi sa software testing ka.

May mga software tester/qa na pwedeng makahelp sa kanya? Yong iba ata software engineer ang ginawang nominated occupation for software tester. Pero mukang mahirap yan dahil di man pasok lahat ng responsibilities...

merxyboy · June 2015

@J_Oz ECE pala ako sa Mapua. Ahhhhh gets so ok lang pala wag nang mapatagal sa work experience. Balak ko sana magtagal ng 5 yrs pero kung minimum 2 yrs I think mas magandang simulan ko na maggather at magapply ngaun sa ACS kesa magfocus sa 5 points.

Ang focus ko na lang ba is IELTS and ung state sponsorship? Sabi ni agency meron daw Victoria pero magsasarili na lang ako (mahal nila halos 300k+)

J_Oz · June 2015

@merxyboy oo marami naman dito ECE na 2 years lang ang binawas. Pero syempre be prepared din kasi iba iba rin ang nagiging result. Yes focus ka sa IELTS kasi hanggang 20 points pwede makuha dun. And for state, ang alam ko previously Victoria ang nagsponsor for Software tester... marami dito ang walang agency, marami na rin ang nagrant so basa basa ka lang tas pang libre mo na lang samin yong 300k+

just kidding

mikechua · June 2015
