Question lang sana regarding SS application sa Queensland.
Sa job ko kasi may nakasulat na "minimum 5 years experience post qualification" na condition.
6 years experience na ako, pero ang na-assess sa akin ng ACS is 2 years lang. Question is, ano ba ang ibig sabihin ng QLD regarding "post qualification?" Is it post graduation? or kung ano yung nabigay na assessment sayo?
Thanks sa mga sasagot..

"Minimum of five years’ experience post qualification. Additional conditions apply. See note #7 below."
Then, note#7 is Work experience for ICT occupations will be based ACS
assessment.
So I think, this is yun work experience counted na skilled lang which is after 2/4/6 years deducted ng ACS.

We lodged our visa last June 25. Tpos nagreply na ung CO nung July 15. She gave us 28 days to upload and complete the medical and police clearance. Kaso ung medical exam ko hdi pa din nagclear kc rinequire ako for further testing dahil mataas bp ko and may protein ung urine.
Ang worry namin ay next week na yung ika 28 days. Should i inform the CO na hdi aabot ung medical by Aug 11?
TIA sa sasagot.

In my case, naka 3 balik ako para icheck ung bp ko kaso hdi bumababa. Kaya ginawa ko nagpunta ako s specialist (nephro) tpos nicheck ung kidney profile and function. Tpos binigyan din ako ng gamot sa bp. Then bumalik ako s SATA para ipakita ung findings at ung gamot n binigay. Nirecord lng nila.
Pinag serum creatinine test din ako sa SATA as additinal test required. Pinag ganitong test k n rin b?
