Partner Skills Required to Receive 5 Points

EAP · October 2015

Heto din po, if married po ba kelangan pa ng proof of living together like bills, titles etc? Pagkaintindi ko ksi pag de facto lang? Or for ref kelangan din namin magsubmit ng proof of billings, etc? Sa mga married po anu attached nyo? Thanks!

>Spouse or de facto partner

If you are married or in a de facto relationship, provide evidence of a genuine and continuing relationship with your partner at the exclusion of all others.
If you are married provide a scanned colour copy of marriage certificate or relationship registration for you and your partner
For de facto relationships this should include evidence that you have been in the relationship for at least 12 months at time of application. Evidence can include, but is not limited to, joint bank account statements, billing accounts in joint names, other evidence of cohabitation etc).

@EAP- Kung ok na points ni hubby mo. CEMI(Certificate of English Medium of Instruction) is needed from you as the dependent. Kelangan mo din yung TOR mo. If you don't have CEMI/TOR, you need to take IELTS with an equivalent 4 on each band.

EAP · October 2015

@MisterKehn thanks sir! From Mapua po ako, inwill check with them ung CEMI, meron na din po ako TOR. Ask ko lang po, nasa Oz na po kau and family? Thanks!

MisterKehn · October 2015

@EAP- hindi po.. still on the process din yung application namin.. Good luck for us..

EAP · October 2015

@MisterKehn Good luck and God bless sa atin sir! Thanks

IslanderndCity · October 2015

@MisterKehn IELTS with an equivalent 4 on each band lang need ng Au immigration now? sa website po nila nabanggit ito?

MisterKehn · October 2015

@MisterKehn IELTS with an equivalent 4 on each band lang need ng Au immigration now? sa website po nila nabanggit ito?

@IslanderndCity- sorry it should be an average of 4.5 score. Or functional English.
@EAP - please see correction ..

https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/189-/Skilled-Independent-visa-(subclass-189)-document-checklist

Family members English language ability
For each of your dependent applicants who are aged 18 years or older at the time of application must provide evidence of Functional English. If the applicant does not have evidence of having Functional English, you will need to provide a statement indicating your intention to pay the second instalment of the visa application charge.

Functional English
"An International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test result of an average band score of at least 4.5 based on the four test components of speaking, reading, listening and writing. Your test must have been completed within 12 months of visa application lodgement or can be completed during visa application processing"

@MisterKehn salamat sir, pero ito po is kung mag claim ng points no? Pag ok ang points, CEMI and TOr tama po? Mejo nalito ako

thanks

MisterKehn · October 2015

@MisterKehn salamat sir, pero ito po is kung mag claim ng points no? Pag ok ang points, CEMI and TOr tama po? Mejo nalito ako thanks

@EAP - if you want to claim points and to be added to your hubby(partner skills). You need to take Assessment and IELTS - at least 6 in each band.
if okay na ang points ni hubby at nakapaglodge na ng EOI- CEMI/TOR is just a requirement. Or IELTS (average of at least 4.5) to apply for visa 189.

IslanderndCity · October 2015

@EAP can you add your hubby's timeline here? it will make your questions easier to comprehend and respond too

EAP · October 2015

@MisterKehn thanks po!

EAP · October 2015

@IslanderndCity sorry po, wala pa po kami mailagay sa timeline kasi mag IELTS palang po sya eh. Wala pa po kami step 1. Thank u po.

IslanderndCity · October 2015

@EAP ah. ok po. no problem

jlexy · December 2015

meron po kami suitable assessment sa ACS (hubby & me). si hubby may IELTS na, ako wala pa.

confirm ko lang po ha, di po enough CEMI lang for my part need ko pa rin IELTS/PTE para maka claim kami ng 5 points sa partner points?

sorry ha sa tanong, alam ko kasi meron mga CEMI lang pinapakita di lng ako sure if nag claim sila ng points.

IslanderndCity · December 2015

@jlexy I remember CEMI is not enough if you want to claim 5 points as spouse

fgs · December 2015

@jlexy You must have competent english ability and CEMI is not enough to prove it...

...from DIBP website re:Claiming points for Partner skills

Partner skills:
1. your partner’s personal documents that prove they are under 50 years of age
2. evidence your partner has at least competent English at time of invitation.
3.a suitable skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority for your partner’s nominated occupation (which must be on the same skilled occupations list as your nominated occupation).

fgs · December 2015

@jlexy Competent english...at least 6 in all subtests...Only functional english is required for other family members included in the application and CEMi is enough to prove it. Since you are claiming points for Partner Skills, Skills assessment and Competent english are required

jlexy · December 2015

@fgs so 6 all bands if dependent. if main applicant should be 7 in all bands. tama po ba?

fgs · December 2015

@jlexy if the main applicant is claiming points for english ability, the minimum is 7 (10 points)..the partner claiming points for partner skills should have min 6, all other dependents should have functional english(CEMI is enough)

Hi po,
Buhayin ko lang po itong topic kasi ganito po situation ko, I was planning to apply for an accountant (general) ANZSCO - 221111, eh yung wife ko po eh bank teller which is sabi naman ng wife ko eh related naman sa accounting. Meron po syang 2 1/2 years na sa job nya. Ok lang po ba ipa-assess ito? and i-claim ko po yung extra 5 points?

Thank you

ziella · February 2016

Ako din may question. I want to be the principal applicant instead of my husband kase masmataas ang IELTS score ko. If we make him the principal kase hindi aabot ng 60 ung total score namin. Pwede po ba na ako ang maging principal pero nasa CSOL lang ang occupation ko? And pwede ba na if maapprove kami when we get to Oz ay sya ang magwork at hindi ako na principal applicant? Sana may makatulong. Salamat po!

check appropriate Assessing Authority. Once identified (either CPAA, ICAA, IPA), check its requirements.

@stewart you may search 'de facto' dito sa forum. or you will marry her before you lodge PR visa para sabay kayo magiging PR

SAP_TRM · May 2017

Hi Guys,

Is there anyone here who has experience on claiming partner skills with a partner (GF-BF)? Are there any requirements to prove that you are partners? Any restrictions?

RheaMARN1171933 · May 2017

@SAP_TRM you both need to prove that you have to be living together for at least 12 months as de facto or married. Otherwise, no chance of applying together.
