    ano po maganda tirhan na state? nakapunta lang kasi ako sa Sydney last May for training kaya naenganyo ako mag apply. kasi akala ko nung una magnosebleed ako sa kaka english pero ok naman kasi kahit pabali baliktad nagets naman nila at natuwa pa nga ung isa kong seatmate sa office kasi di nya expected na majority ng subjects sa school dito sa Pinas ay English ang ginagamit. na amazed sya kasi since bata pa pala pinag aaralan na dito. maganda sa Sydney, malinis din. madaming pwede puntahan. though sabi mahal ang cost of living. nakapunta po ko sa Blacktown dun daw madaming pinoy. pero parang 1-1.5 hrs ata sya away sa sydney. sguro basta friendly yung environment, malinis, hindi super lamig kapag winter, hindi masyado laid back para di nakakahomesick, tapos mura pa ang mga for rent/food, dun mas ok.. hahaha..at kung saan may mga IT... saan kaya? adelaide?

    hi @MayoMay, sabi nila nagmamatter daw ang school e. Nakacategorize ang schools into 3 sections (section 1 is the highest). Yung school ko is nasa section 2.

    Another one is yung ICT units yata as stated sa ANZSCO description:

    "The relevance of your experience and qualifications can only be determined at the time of formal assessment. In order for a qualification or employment period to be deemed closely related;
     At least 65% of the ICT units in your qualification must be relevant to the nominated occupation
     At least 65% of the duties and responsibilities listed in the employment reference letters must be relevant to the nominated occupation."

    https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/7319/Skills-Assessment-Guidelines-for-Applicants.pdf

    Other than that, hindi ko rin alam kung ano basehan nila about sa pag-assess ng degree.

    @manolo1978 It means may something na nakita sa medical mo na kelangan i-monitor - possibly PTB history or Hepa? By signing the form, you must contact the Health Undertaking Service (HUS) pagdating mo dito sa Aus. They will arrange for medical check-up na kelangan mong i-attend. No need to worry, free naman yun and mabuti na rin at may medical records ka dito and ma-monitor yung health mo. Send back the signed copy na agad para grant na rin agad :)

    @manolo1978 we have the same case. I submitted the Form 815 to my agent the same day (last June 29). But up to now no visa grant yet. Btw, we are a family of 6. My youngest son who is 3 yo got the hit on Form 815. But he passed at SLEC test and negative for any TB. It is just a standard protocol of AU health authorities as they are strict on any health suspicion. We're also under an agent.
