    Hi po good afternoon. Electrical Design Engineer po ako now for 2 years and 3 months palang. As of now po, 45 points palang ako (Age:30pts and 15 pts for bachelors degree), ask ko lang po, pwede po ba pambawi ng points yung PTE and IELTS?? I am now preparing for my IELTS exam po para ma assess ng Engineers Australia. Salamat po


    sa IELTS, if u get at least 7.0 in each band, you'll get 10 points, pag at least 8.0 naman each band, you'll get 15 points..
    20points po kapag 8.0 in each band..

    @xiaolico Sa IELTS yung remarking. If I remember correctly around 3900 ata. Medyo hassle pa yung sa IELTS kasi limited ang schedule at sobrang dami niyo nag eexam. Yung waiting pala before exam at pila abutin ka na 1-2hr.

    Hi po good afternoon. Electrical Design Engineer po ako now for 2 years and 3 months palang. As of now po, 45 points palang ako (Age:30pts and 15 pts for bachelors degree), ask ko lang po, pwede po ba pambawi ng points yung PTE and IELTS?? I am now preparing for my IELTS exam po para ma assess ng Engineers Australia. Salamat po


    sa IELTS, if u get at least 7.0 in each band, you'll get 10 points, pag at least 8.0 naman each band, you'll get 15 points..
    20points po kapag 8.0 in each band..
    ay, my bad..thanks @hayrOHOiro ..

    @BeroMoves uploaded mine got a Direct Grant :) mejo matagal ang reply ng CO kasi pag nauna ung contact nuya before mo iupload, kumbaga lahat ng bala mo gamitin mo na para knock out na siya i grant na lang niya :) and nasa website mismo ng immi.gov na mas mabilis ang processing times if you frontload form 80 abd 1221 for all applicants aged 18 and up.
