Past Employer
• Country where Employment was undertaken
- Not indicated, but the Philippine address is there in the letterhead. Also the company
only operates here in the Philippines.
Present Employer
• Start and Finish Dates of Employment – these should be specific dates in a DD/MM/YY format
• If your employment is “Current”, the employer reference should state the term “To Date” and MUST include the date the reference was written.
- Instead of "TO DATE" ito ang nakalagay "July 26, 2004 UP TO PRESENT"
Meron ba sa inyo na nakapasa ng ACS assessment with this format of your COE?
I hope you can share your experience. Thanks

actually this is ok kasi partner skill points lng namn ung habol namin originally..not until naisip namin na pwede rin ako mag apply siguro as primary applicant (ksi failed pa rin si hubby sa IELTS and will retake on Nov 7)..
if ako po apply primary applicant, I get 60 points kahit 0 yr skilled work experience..ok lng kaya yun? possible po kaya? or required na meron akong skilled experience 3 yrs above?
your thoughts would be very much appreciated..salamat!
