im here in saudi at medyo mahirap kumuha sa amin ng COE.. possible kasi na ipitin ako pag nalaman na naga-apply ko for migration to AU.
naka-kuha ako ng COE pero the purpose is not for applying in AU instead appliying for loan.. stated naman dun yung position ko, then instead of annual salary, it is per month basis.. tapos sa last paragraph ay ganito nakasulat.
"This certification is issued upon his request for loan without holding the company in any financial obligations."
Pero meron din akong another COE na generic pero it was dated 2010 pa. Pwede kaya yan?

thanks sa input.. recently lang yung signed ng IT manager..
bale i have 3 COE
1. COE dated 2010
2. COE dated 2012 pero for loan ang purpose
3. COE with Job Desc signed by IT manager dated 2012
tanung ko lang kung isasubmit ko pa ba sya lahat or kahit yung 1 & 3 lang?
isip ko kasi na isubmit lahat para just in case na makita yung 2 na for loan purpose eh makikita din nila yung 1 na generic..

yes same company lang.. speaking of job title.. nung nag-apply kasi ako dito linux admin ang position.. so yun ang pinapirmahan ko sa IT manager ko now na COE with detaild job desc..
pero yung COE from personnel namin ay computer programmer.. magkakaproblem kaya ako dun? though yung main work ko talaga eh linux admin at bihira ang programming..
bka kasi pag nilagay ko ay comp prog dun sa detailed COE pero most work is linux admin baka maguluhan yung CO... ako din now naguguluhan na heheheh
thanks ulit sa tulong

1. Numbers 1 and 2 ibalik sa iyo ng CO dahil walang detailed job desctiptions at hihingi yung CO ng statutory declarations (affidavit)
2. Number 3 lang ang e consider ng CO dahil may detailed job descriptions

I have a situation here. I intend to nominate the position of Developer Programmer. I am a graduate of Bachelor's Degree in Computer Management in a State University. I also have my MBA but i think it doesn't give credit for the position i want to nominate.
The following are my work related experience:
Computer Operator - 2 years (job description indicates programming jobs)
Computer Programmer - 2 years
Statistician - 2 years
IT Lecturer in a University - 2years (can i claim points here?)
IT Coordinator / Lecturer in a College - 5years (can i claim points here?)
I stopped employment since 2005 since i venture into business. I have a computer shop which i manage until now. I do web design and customized software development but on a freelance service na nga lang using business registration of my computer shop.
My question is, how ACS evaluates entrepreneurial experience?

What you need to prove is yung entrepreneurial experience mo is related sa developer and programmer then kailangan mo pa i-explain yung freelance service and why computer shop ang registration mo and then you're registering yung freelance work mo under your company. Titingnan kasi nila yung experience mo in the last 2-3 years or so.
View ko lang to ha, based on what I've read and experienced sa ACS.

For my entrepreneurial experience, do you think what kind of supporting documents do i need to furnish? Do you think Statutory Declaration can suffice the objectives?
My plan is just to attach the CTC of my BIR registration and DTI registration just to prove my business existence.

- kung nakalgay sa No 1 ang salary mo at date of employment..
- at nasa Cert 3 naman ang detailed job description, then there is no need to worry..
i think hindi lang nabasa ni @ernanipollaruste na same company/job lang ang 3 certificates..
now the next question is magkaiba ang job title... if you think naman na fit ang job desciption sa ANZSCO job code/description, then my opinion is, it is okay.. dahil job description talga ang tinitingnan ng ACS...

@psychoboy mukhang mabilis naman kung magbase ako sa current timeline ng mga nag apply for ACS assessment... yung saken..nag-pass ako nung sept 5 at ni-acknowledge ng ACS on the same day... tapos on the 10th nasa stage 4 na... meaning nasa assessor na yung application... last stage is stage 5... which will give you the results... so meaning the application has been with the assessor for 9 days pa lang... sana maging same kay @stolich na nag pass on the 5th and nagbigay ng positive assessment on the 21st... super bilis... kaiinggit... hehehe... pero in God's time... mas pinapa-excite lang nya ako...
