Saka po kung mag claim ng points for the partner, ano po ba ibig sabihin nito "had nominated an occupation on the same skilled occupation list as your nominated occupation". Ibig po ba sabihin dapat pareho kame ni hubby ng degree?
Thanks po

I already got my ACS result. I asked for assessment for Systems Analyst pero according to result, hindi daw closely related. However, they recommended that my skill is suitable to group code 1351XX (ICT Project Manager, ICT Managers NEC, Chief Information Officer) which is nasa under ng CSOL (for nominated and sponsorship applicants). Any advise on how to proceed? I was actually eyeing Skilled independent application for systems analyst kaso hindi lumusot.
Thanks in advance!
