Nagpaassess na ako sa CPAA kaso negative for migration dahil sa Accounting Theory. Eh same lang tayo, nakaincorporate din sa Financial Accounting ko yung theories na yun and makikita naman sa syllabus yung topics like Conceptual Framework, andun yun diba. Complete naman sinumbit ko even yung board ratings na clearly andun yung Theory of Accounts diba. Tinignan ko kasi yung Foundation Course ng Accounting Theory and the topics covered therein are already in my syllabus eh. Ngayon I'm deciding whether I should appeal or magpaassess nalang sa IPA/NIA or ICAA like you.

Hello everyone.

Is there anyone here who tried to appeal his/her CPAA negative migration assessment, and got a positive result after? Thanks so much!

Reply to @balletshoes: tinignan ko ulit ung course syllabus ko, meron kami subject nung 2nd semester ng 4th year level namin sa college na dalawang refresher course. ung una n subject and coverage ay about topic sa CPA board exam, (Theory of Account, Practical Acctg 1 & 2). Then un isa naman ay tungkol sa (Management Services). Meron din b kaung ganun?

good afternoon, question to all accountants... i already tried filling up an EOI at skillselect although i do not have the requirements yet (magtake palang ako ng IELTS this July). I just tried out of curiosity so I know what are the questions to expect on the EOI. There is a portion there that asks about each of your work experiences if it is related or not to your nominated occupation. Btw, I will be nominating Accountant (general) if i can push through with applying for a skilled migration visa. Iba iba kc fields na napasukan ko (i have been an internal auditor, tax accountant, cost accountant, budget officer, etc), so I thought I should nominate the occupation na accountant (in general). Anyone here with a similar case? and do you think having different roles/ job descriptions in our years of experience will have an effect whether we will be assessed as suitable or not for the "accountant" na nominated occupation?

Reply to @lou24: I look forward to any response here as my wife also has a similar case with experience as follows:

(1) 6 years external audit
(2) 2.5 years finance manager

She will be applying for General Accountant when she is done with IELTS and Skills Assessment - hopefully before August end, pass na ng EOI.

Cheers!

Theory of Accounts ba is more or less equal ba to what they in CPAA want for Accounting Theory?

Reply to @psychoboy:

Yes, try mo tignan yung content ng Foundation Course nila na equivalent ng Accounting Theory. Andun yung lists of topics like Conceptual Framework, Capital Maintenance, etc. Nasa Theory of Accounts kasi yung mga topics na yun.

Reply to @wynx:

Thanks sa mga reply mo. Nakakatulong talaga sya. Oo nga eh sana may magreply dun sa question ko na yun kasi syempre money rin talaga ang iisipin. Appeal or assessment ulit.

Yes meron akong Refresher. Punta nga akong school tomorrow to get a more detailed syllabus for that subject since kasama talaga dun ang TOA. Thanks sa idea!

wynx · July 2012

Reply to @psychoboy: saan mo b balak magpa assess or nakapag pa assess ka n?

balletshoes · July 2012

Reply to @wynx:
Pag sa ICAA ba through email malalaman mo na ang result ng assessment? Though need mo pa hintayin yung hard copy diba.

wynx · July 2012

Reply to @balletshoes: sinabi mo pa. hindi naman basta basta lang cash outlay mo sa pag papa-assess sa mga assessing authority. kaya dapat pag isipan m mabuti kung ano ang pipiliin m sa mga options m.

isa ang accountant sa mataas ang occupation ceiling sa new diac rules. sana maraming work pagdating dun, parang puro pang manager yung nakikita ko sa job search ko

wynx · July 2012

Reply to @Silhouette: un ang magiging panibagong chalkenge pagdaing dun. ang paghahanp ng work. i wish u good luck. just have faith.

balletshoes · July 2012

Hi, yung course syllabus nyo ba sinend nyo yung original copies or certified lang? Thank you.

Silhouette · July 2012

Reply to @wynx: thanks, goodluck din sayo... God bless!

Silhouette · July 2012

Reply to @balletshoes: hi, ang alam ko po original ang pinapadala na syllabus.

wynx · July 2012

Reply to @balletshoes: original copies po ang pinadala ko. cguro gaun din s ibang assessing authorities

batman · July 2012

any accountants just lodge their application thru skill select?

TasBurrfoot · July 2012

Re: My wife's case:

I am just a bit concerned about work experience - she had a total of 6 yrs experience as an external auditor and 2.5 years experience as a finance manager.

She is planning to apply as a general accountant; my question is papasa kaya yung work experience nya as closely related skilled occupation?

Thanks!

viannej08 · July 2012

@psychoboy - i think related lang. better include employment assessment when she'll have her qualification assessed w/ ur preferred prof body. you can also check her JD if close to anzsco, but i'm pretty sure it's covered with her job position as auditor & finance manager.

hello sa lahat. new lang po ako dito sa forum but matagal na ako nagbabasa sa mga posts. I am an accountant but not a cpa. I believe same lng po yong chance ng cpa n non-cpa for au. may mga katanungan lang po ako regarding sa mga docs for assessment:

1) yong sa detailed syllabus kailangan po ba lahat ng page may seal ng school n sign ng registrar? kasi last page lng po ng detailed syllabus per subject ang merong seal/sign ang binigay ng school ko. will this matter during assessment?

2) yong sa notarization po ng documents kailangan din po ba every page ung may signature ng abogado?

3) pwd po pa-share ng sample format ng detailed job description? kc ang binigay ng hr namin ung standard lng na coe. tapos ang accounting manager ko willing naman po magsign sa detailed JD ko na nirequest.

salamat po ng marami. plan to file assessment after my IELTS result. turn between cpaa or icaa. hopefully makapasa with god's grace.

viannej08 · July 2012

Reply to @sticky_note: sakin last page lang din ng detailed syllabus ang dry seal & certified by registrar, positive nman po ang result ng assessment. pero yung ibang docs not related sa skul na konti lang ang pages, every page signed by the lawyer.

sticky_note · July 2012

@viannej08: maraming salamat po sa pagsagot ng mga katanungan ko. meron po kau format ng detailed jd? ako po kc ang gagawa ng djd tapos pipirma nlng ang acctg manager ko. nagresearch na rin ako sa net ng format, wala po ako makita. sorry po sa abala. sa mga forumers d2 baka po pwd nu masend ung sample/format. salamat po!

sticky_note · July 2012

Hello po. Anybody po na pwd mag-share ng format ng detailed job description nila na pinadala for assessment? kahit format lng po, d na kasama ung anong nakasulat sa jd. salamat ng marami.

hi friends!

may tanong po sana ako...isa ksi sa requirements sa skillselect (visa 189) ang "have a suitable skills assessment for that occupation".

since i'll be nominating the accountant(general) occupation, ibig sabihin po ba nito, kelangan (1)qualifications assessment [Aud450] and (2)skilled employment assessment [Aud210]ang ipa-assess ko sa IPA/NIA? hiwalay ksi sila unlike nung sa CPAA na magkasama na sa charge na Aud475. enough na po ba kung qualifications assessment lng sa IPA ang ipagawa ko?

i'm leaning towards choosing IPA as my assessing authority. nagdadalawang isip ksi akong magpa-assess sa CPAA ksi sa mga nababasa ko sa threads, madalas nagkakaproblema sa "accounting theory" na core mandatory core knowledge area.

sana po may makasagot sa katanungan ko. salamat po!
