    Hi! I find this thread really helpful. I am a registered medtech here in the Philippines and I've been working as one for almost 3 years. I plan to move to Australia with my kid. I have a sister who lives in Sydney and is a permanent resident.

    I plan to take the AIMS exam after mag 3 years ang work experience ko.

    I have a few questions:
    1. Sa Australia, different ag med. lab. technician from med. lab. scientist, right? Which assessment should i take? Coz i saw sa website ng aims na different ang assessments nila.

    2. Saan pwede mag take ng exam here sa Philippines? Plan ko sana kasi na dito nalang mag exam para medyo less stress na when we reach Sydney. Hanap work nalang.

    3. Do i need to enroll sa review center or makakaya ba with self-review lang?

    I still have to read the rest of the thread coz alam ko may mga suggestions for review materials.

    Btw, I am applying for student visa which is good for 2 years and i'll bring my kid as dependent.
    My masterplan is student muna for 2 years, hanap ng part time job, take the aims assessment and work as med lab scientist. But i think it's better na i'll take the exam before i go there.

    @Hearty Hi. It seems everyone is busy for Christmas so no replies yet on your questions... Anyway Ill try my best to answer them...
    1. If you're a Philippine College BS MT (not BSPH of UP) graduate and PRC licensed, AIMS will always assess you as Lab Technician and will invite you to sit for an Exam held every September and March. if you pass, then you will become Med Sci, which is eligible for a visa 189.
    2. Exam venue is in a Makati Hotel i think. AIMS will contact you about the venue in Manila.
    3.Self review. No review center in Ph currently focuses on AIMS exam (which is not MCQs).

    You can PM those who already passed the exams and ask for advices regarding techniques they used to pass.
    If you're in a hurry to go to Oz then pursue your plan as a student, but I would suggest you apply for a PR visa using Med Sci as Skilled occupation since you will take your kid with you. Less hassle because you dont have to go to school while providing for your child. And I think, students has limited hours of work there. Tuition is expensive too.

    Disclaimer: I too is currently processing papers, so some of my answers might be inaccurate. So please ask others for their opinion. Thanks.

    @arecognizablejeans... Hi po. Start pa lang ako mgcollect ng docs. Ask ko lng regarding doon sa checklist for assessment sabi " AN OFFICIAL CERTIFIED RECORD OF EDUCATIONAL COURSES COMPLETED SHOWING : SUBJECTS, HOURS, EXAMINATION RESULTS, AND WHERE APPLICABLE, DETAILS OF PRACTICAL AND CLINICAL EDUCATION." Sa maikling salita po ba TRANSCRIPT OF RECORDS ba ito? O need pa ng Clock hours coming from College office mismo in response to Details of practical and clinical education? Pahelp naman po sa mga nagpa- assess na. TIA.

    @Hearty personally po, magtake na kayo ng exams dito, para less stress. Madami naman nakikipagsapalaran sa 189 visa pero nabibigyan sila by God's grace. Kung sakali magrant visa nyo 189 iwan muna ilang months baby nyo sa pinas kasi napakamahal ng pagpapaalaga sa aussie, hanap muna kayo work then kapag okay na, at kabisado nyu na rin ang place get nyu na ang 2 y/o nyo. Pananaw ko lng po un, pero nasa inyu pa rin desisyun.

    @netzskie ah, good na nagstart ka na magresearch but better check their site first. Aims.org.au lahat ng questions mo po andun makikita, dyan po lahat simula. Check nyo po kung eligible ba sya for assessment.

    After that kailngan nya mameet ung 60pts na requirment sa visa. Factor is age, english exam, result ng assessment, work exp.

    Australian Skilled Visa Conditions
    A successful applicant is given a 5 year multiple entry visa to live and work in Australia. You only need to live in Australia for 2 of the 5 years to have the visa reissued for a further 5 years. Alternatively, you can spend 4 consecutive years in Australia and be eligible for citizenship.
    If you choose not to gain citizenship, however, you must apply for a Resident Return Visa before the original one expires in order to travel to and from Australia. To qualify for this you must demonstrate that you have spent 2 years lawfully living in Australia or that you have significant personal, cultural or business ties to Australia.

    Pede naman @bhelle_mt02 pero isipin mo na kung saan ka talaga,kasi pagpunta mo US adjust ka uli, actually nasa US ako ngaun, di pa ako nakakarating AUS. pansin ko dito malaki nga sweldo pero cost of living malaki din. kung pabalik balik ka wala ka stability. and kung pupunta ka US ikaw lang maggrant, matagal processing sa family, di mo ata agad makukuha pwera na lang kung magtourist sila tapos di na uuwi. opinion ko lang yun, pede ako icorrect haha medyo di ko alam process ng family pag nagkaworkvisa sa US eh. pero alam ko matagal eh.

    Good evening every one

    Thank god
    I have passed the professional examination

    Thanks for all people in this forum for their help and e books

    I really need your help in applying for visa

    Is the test result sent by the AIMS is enough to send to DIBP as a positive evaluation for ANZSCO 234611 or not
    Especially that this letter is not stating my actual experience period and only mentioning literally (more than three years)

    I got confused after I received an advice from my migration agent that this paper is not accepted and I should send back for AIMS requesting a new assessment letter.

    Do any one from our colleagues already granted their visa has any experience with this issue

    Please
    Help me in this confusion

    Thanking you in advance for your usual co operation

    Warm regards
    Hi! Just wondering If you were able to secure a new assessment letter from AIMS stating your work experience in the last 10yrs as a Medical Scientist? How did your application go? Which type of visa did apply for? Thanks!

    Actually, No
    AIMS said that this two letters are enough for visa application
    And they are not going to issue a new letter unless I paid a full assessment fee again and resend all my papers additionally this will take 6 to 8 weeks

    @NicoDC Hi, daming opening daw talaga diyan sa US sabi ng friend ko working there. Do you think for a single person like me, ok na option ang US? Back up ko sana if ever di ako makahanap ng work sa Australia as Med Tech.

    @bhelle_mt02 Hi there! Ask ko lang kung mahirap ba maghanap ng work as mt sa oz? NSW po kayo? May baby din kasi ako kaya I'm thinking if ever mag move na kami dyan ang iniisip ko baka mauna muna ako kasi baka mahirap pala makahanap ng job sa start. Thanks!
