Recently natapos ko ung Masters ko sa IT. But I have solid experience sa pinas. Paano ko makakuha ng points for my experience when I try to apply for PR maybe by July this year..sabi ng agent ko hindi na daw ako pwede mag apply for ACS accreditation for my experience....pro I am currently doing my Professional Year....Tulong naman...kasi kulang ako sa points and I need to apply for PR this year kasi malalpit na mawala ung points ko sa age. Salamat in advance

Can you breakdown your work experience prior to your master's degree? Anong educational background mo sa PH before taking your masters?

question po regarding TOR. yung TOR lang ba mismo ang i-submit? di na kailangan ng description per subject?

TOR lang for ACS no need for description

Good Evening. I just need your thoughts on this po. May chance po ba na 2 years lang deduction ko at AQF Bachelor ang assessment? I feel na closely related naman yung nominated occupation.noc ko po ay 263111. Course ko BSIT. Section 3 school. 10 yrs IT work experience. TIA

freakazaa · January 2017

@diskartepinay Depende yan sa courses na na-take mo nung college and sa job description mo for your 10 years work exp.

DrAgKurt · January 2017

hi all, question lang. ung ACS assessment ko kc ay mageexpire this coming March 20, 2017. If fortunate at makareceive ako ng invite either 189 or 190 before the validity date, ok lang ba during lodging ng VISA eh un parin ang iprovide kong ACS reference? or do I need to lodge for new assessment and provide that new reference number during lodging of VISA? Thanks for your usual advise.

Hello @diskartepinay from what I read mostly here in forum - Sec. 3 will assess you as AQF Diploma and 5yrs deduc... but this is still case-to-case basis depends on your submitted proofs.

@DrAgKurt If you get invited & lodged visa before the the expiration date of your assessment, that would be fine.

DrAgKurt · January 2017

@SAP_Melaka Hi! Meaning, no need to lodge for new skill assessment, am I correct? Also, is the ACS result still required during lodging of VISA regardless if it has expired?

@DrAgKurt no need to submit another ACS assessment, if ma-invite ka & maka-lodge ng visa before expiration of your assessment. Lodge meaning na-submit & paid na yung 189/190 visa application.

@DrAgKurt also, please take into consideration - only those companies that were assessed by ACS will be included if you are claiming for points. If you're still with the same company based on the latest company assessed by ACS then you're fine. But if you already joined another company, you can't claim skilled points for that and need another ACS assessment

@SAP_Melaka Noted. Thank you

Usually ACS deducts 5 years if you graduated from a section 3 school. Exception dito is if engineering degree ka with PRC license.

@freakazaa @SAP_Melaka @rich88 - Thank you!

jemabelle · January 2017

@Heprex sa Business Analyst. Pwede ba ako magpa assess based on my experience to get points that I need.
Age - 15 points
Education - 20 points
Language Proficiency (PTE) - 20 points
PY - 5 points (still earning this mga May this year)
Kung ung experience ko makakuha ako at least 15 points kung pwede...hindi ko na kailangan tapusin ung professional year ko

Please kailangan ko lng ng feedbac, kasi sabi ng education agent ko hindi na pwede. pro bakit nasa point system ng PR kung d pwede. Baka meron dito na may alam. Gusto ko na kasi makuha mga anak ko. Naghahanap din ako ng work now.

O baka may ma reccommend kayo na migration agent. Gusto ko na makakuha ng info ASAP. Bago ako mawalan ng points sa age. turning 45 this October.

jemabelle · January 2017

@rich88 From June 2007 to March 2013 Head ako ng isang IT department sa pinas.......doing project management (analyst) and project manager from March 2013 to December.

Bachelors in Information and Computer Systems ang tinapos ko sa Pinas circa 1994

Pwede ba ko ba ipa-assess sa ACS for Skills. Kas sabi ng agent ko hindi na pwede.

Heprex · January 2017

@jemabelle
Ano school mo? malaki impact ng section ng school.
Yung masters mo, san mo kinuha? sa Australia ba?

I think @rich88 can walk-through you more on details.

But I suggest you read more about ACS in their website para ma grasp mo mismo yung idea.

Superched · January 2017

I got my assessment results today, need help po to calculate kung ilang points ang pwede ko i-claim in qualifications and work experience.

Here's my results:
"Your skills have been assessed suitable for migration....

Your Bachelr of Science in Information Technology from XXXX completed March 2008 has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree with a major in computing.

The following employment after October 2010 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to XXXX....

Dates: 06/08 -01/10 (1yrs 7mths)
Dates: 05/10 - 06/11 (1yrs 1mths)
Dates: 06/11 - 03/15 (3yrs 9mths)
Dates: 03/15- 12/16 (1yrs 9mths)"

Kung tama intindi ko I can claim the following tama po ba?
*Qualification = 15pts
*Work Experience = 10pts

Heprex · January 2017

@Superched yup tama.

Company A - 06/08 -01/10 - not related
Company B - 05/10 - 10/10 - not related
Company B - 11/10 - 06/11-related
Company C - 06/11 - 03/15 - related
Company D - 03/15- 12/16 - related

Start ng related exp mo is from Nov 2010 to date. so more than 5years, that would be 10 pts.

*Qualification = 15pts
*Work Experience = 10pts

Superched · January 2017

@Heprex thanks, so pwede ko din i-claim yung 15pts sa qualification since considered na bachelor's degree?

Mackie · January 2017

guys.. pano kaya tong case ko ayaw kasi mag bigay ng company ko ng detailed COE. gusto standard lang .. with position . yrs employed at salary..
yung roles and responsibility pa acknowledge ko na lang daw sa boss ko..
kelangan ba yun nakaprint pa sa letterhead? ano ang details ng boss na need kunin pirma lang pede na ba?

baka may makapag share ng format for this.. thanks

Heprex · January 2017

@Superched Yep.

Congrats!

@Mackie what I would suggest is go for that standard COE, and create an affidavit with your JD or RnR signed by your manager , and have it notarized. Regarding sa sample ng affidavit, meron dito sa site na to, di ko lang alam kung saan, you may use the search bar.

jemabelle · January 2017

@Heprex
Salamat sa pag sagot.

ung Bachelors sa Pilipinas ung Masters ko dito sa Australia

Ang sunod na problem ko lahat ng pinag trabahuan ko sarado na ung company.
Nakita ko na ung execution ng affidavit ng mga co-workers.

Yes but I need somebody to walk me through the process.

So pwede ko ipa-assess sa ACS ung experience ko. May mareccomend ba kayong migration agent to help me. Ayoko ko kasi magkamali...maigsi na ung panahon ko.

Heprex · January 2017

@jemabelle Yup, i think pwede ka naman sa ACS, may ICT project manager code under CSOL. Gather your employment reference, and match it sa description sa ACS. mag migration agent ka man o hindi. Need mo tlga kumuha nun. Have all your qualification and experience assessed para malaman mo mismo yung points mo.

Regarding sa migration agent. I cannot help you with this. kung nasa Australia ka na, baka may masuggest si @Admin. parang may nabasa ako dati na meron sya massuggest.

20 points for education? 15 years for bachelor's degree + 5 sa AU study po ba? Check nyo po dito if anong section yung school nyo para malaman nyo kung makaka-claim kayo ng 15 points for bachelor's degree: http://pinoyau.info/plugin/page/accredited-schools Hindi ko sure if automatic 15 points ba if may masters.. AFAIK need rin i-assess yun bachelor's degree. sana may makapag bigay ng ibang inputs dito.

Pwede pa naman magpa-assess sa ACS.. bakit naman daw hindi pwede sabi ng agent?

Hindi ko lang sure if lulusot ka as business analyst. More on project management kasi hawak mo eh. Kelan yung last work experience nyo po?

jaceejoef · January 2017

favor po sa mga software engineer na anzsco occupation, pwedeng pahiram ng job description ninyo?

diskartepinay · January 2017

Hello. Tanong ko lang po kung kailangan din ba i-CTC yung mga statutory declaration na na-notarize na? Thanks in advance.

DrAgKurt · January 2017

@diskartepinay As long as it's notarized you're good.

rich88 · January 2017

@jaceejoef nasa ACS site yung guidelines ng COE at JD. I-pattern mo na lang dun yung format at ilagay mo in detail kung ano talaga ang ginagawa mo ngayon sa current role mo.
