Hi, fellow Chemists.

Just a quick question here. For the CV you submitted to VETASSESS, was a there a specific format/guidelines you had to adhere to? I do remember seeing a CV format in the old VETASSESS website but it seems they have removed it now.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
markier87

standard CV format is fine. just ensure that the job description on your CV is similar to those on your employer letters.

@cinnamonmama how's your PTE exam? have you started your application ulit?

markier87 · April 2017

Ayan, on-hold ang VETASSESS. Hindi muna sila tumatanggap ng skills assessment. Dahil daw sa Skilled Migration Visa changes...

Kumusta mga fellow Chemists?!

So far, nasa Victoria lang na list tayo for subclass 190. Hoping for more options when updates come this July. Meanwhile, I was finally able to submit my VETASSESS application. Now, the waiting and praying for positive outcome begins.

Hi @markier87 ! Goodluck on your application.
As for me, waiting na lang for the visa grant. I was able to lodge on April 19, but no updates til now.

markier87 · May 2017

@purplehaze Hi! Thanks! I just saw your signature, twice ka ngtry sa VIC, pero unsuccessful kahit nasa list and yet sa NSW, na wala tayo sa list, ay nainvite ka. Amazing! Naglalagay ba sila ng reason if bakit negative ang assessment mo? at pati na rin sa state nomination? Mas lalo akong nakabahan hehehe

purplehaze · May 2017

@markier87 For VETASSESS I requested for the "Negative Explanation". Basically the statement of duties and responsibilities I have submitted did not match that of the nominated occupation. I applied for Reassessment and submitted a more detailed statement of duties and responsibilities.

With state nomination naman, template lang yung rejection email ng Victoria.

@purplehaze Hi!

Thanks for the info. Got a call from VETASSESS requesting additional docs which I immediately submitted naman. Assessment still in progress. Kakatense maghintay talaga hehehe

purplehaze · May 2017

Goodluck on your application @markier87

markier87 · May 2017

@purplehaze Thanks! God bless din sa Visa Application niyo.

@purplehaze and @markier87 Hello po sa inyo...

I'm a newbie here in the forum... glad to find this topic... ang dami ko info na nakuha... ngayon pa lang din ako magstart apply sa Au... nagustuhan ko dun saka para makasama ko na family ko... I have been working here in Sg for 10years balak ko to try in Au nagustuhan ko din ung lifestyle sa Au nung nagvisit kami ni hubby... medyo confuse lang din ako kung ano occupation ang declare ko... Chemical Eng and Chemistry ang degree ko kaso more on QA/QC laboratory experience ko... much better ba na Chemist po ung nominate ko?

Meron ba kayo Agent sa application nyo? Appreciate your reply

mj_eugenio · July 2017

Hi,

Due to the changes last July 1, kapag ba napunta sa MLTSSL ang occupation pwede ng magapply ng 189 Visa?

I have read in the below link na nalipat ung Chemist from STSOL to MLTSSL

https://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/summary-of-1-july-2017-changes-to-list-of-eligible-skilled-occupations.aspx

Thanks in adv. sa mga sasagot

purplehaze · July 2017

@mj_eugenio that's good news. kaso bakit kaya wala naman dun sa actual MLTSSL list yung chemist?

mj_eugenio · July 2017

@purplehaze precisely! Naguluhan din ako, or it was another update after ilabas ang MLTSSL?

Or dahil nsa combined list sya for Visa 186 at 457 ?

purplehaze · July 2017

Hi @jen1013 ! Based kasi sa latest na update naremove na yung chemist sa list. Im not sure with Chem Eng.

Di na kami nag agent since very helpful naman tong forum with how to go about the application

Au_Vic · July 2017

@purplehaze hi, chemist is still in the list, now part of MLTSSL

purplehaze · July 2017

@Au_Vic MLTSSL for visa 189 ba? kasi dito sa bulletin wala siya ☹
https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L00850

Au_Vic · July 2017

@purplehaze check the details below. mid-section says 23 skills have been moved to stsol to MLTSSL.

http://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/summary-of-1-july-2017-changes-to-list-of-eligible-skilled-occupations.aspx

As far as I know if you are applying for 189 and 489 (family sponsored) you need to nominate an occupation in MLTSSL (old SOL)

check it out.

purplehaze · July 2017

@Au_Vic yup it was actually mentioned above by @mj_eugenio. kaso conflicting lang with the actual list of MLTSSL for Visa 189.

nd when i tried searching the occupafion in this website, di daw siya eligible for visa 189 https://www.anzscosearch.com/search/

pero there was another MLTSSL list for Visa 186 and 457 na included nga si chemist.

Hi. I have to agree with @purplehaze, wala sa 189 and 190 ang Chemist. Nasa 186 and 457 na sya.

Though I have a question, Chemistry Technician kasi is still on 190 but what I have is positive assessment for Chemist. Would it be okay to use that assessment to apply for 190 under Chemistry technician skill?

Thanks sa sasagot.

Au_Vic · July 2017

@krizzymalasig hi guys, to clarify lang:

Meron lang 2 list ng occupations for migration to Australia effective 1-July-2017

a. MLTSSL (old SOL)
b. STSOL (old CSOL)

MLTSSL - applicable to 189 visa, 489 visa (family sponsored)
STSOL - applicable to 190 visa, 489 visa (state sponsored)

For work visa (457 there are two types, short term (2 yrs) and long term (4yrs).
a. If you apply for work visa and your occupation is included in MLTSSL - work visa applicant can be given 4 yrs visa
b. if you apply for work visa and your occupation is included in STSOL - work visa applicant
can only be given 2 yrs visa

Visa 186 - is a DIRECT entry PR given to employee sponsored by an employer. There are also caveats on some occupations in the list.

Link to immigration website (see below). Chemist - MLTSSL

cheers

purplehaze · July 2017

@Au_Vic Actually confusing talaga kasi it appears na may separate list pa ng MLTSSL and STSOL for visa 186 and 457.

even if you check the link posted here in the forum, wala talaga ang chemist
http://pinoyau.info/discussion/9141/skilled-occupations-list-sol-2017-18-is-now-available

krizzymalasig · July 2017

@krizzymalasig @Au_Vic HELLO

The combined list is for Visa 186 and 457.

If you are applying for any of the below:

Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) – Points-tested stream
Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489) - Family nominated
Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) – Graduate Work Stream.

you will need to nominate an occupation from the MLTSSL of the relevant legislative instrument – see: IMMI 17/072 Specification of Occupations and Assessing Authorities.

https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L00850

If you are applying for any of the below:
Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190)
Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489) - State or Territory nominated.
you will need to nominate an occupation from the same legislative instrument above.

Additional occupations included in the STSOL will, however, also be available to you.
Note: the above instrument also restricts the use of certain occupations to certain subclasses listed above.

Sadly, wala na talaga yung Chemist sa 190.

Au_Vic · July 2017

@krizzymalasig if that's the case, is chemistry technician related to chemistry? if yes, chemistry technician is in South Australia Supplementary skills list for state sponsorship. Either 190 or 489.

In order to nominate an occupation from SA supplementary skills,you need to meet any of the 4 conditions.

1. high points (must have 80 points including SS)
2. job offer
3. family/relatives in SA
4. graduate from SA university

Check it out, you may qualify as chemistry technician. :-)

krizzymalasig · July 2017

@Au_Vic Yup. Checked it already.

Will stic to 186 and 457. hehe

Thanks

kymsssss · August 2017

Hi! Pasali na din dito.

@krizzymalasig ask ko lang sa 186 that means maghahanap ka muna ng employer na mag sponsor? pano pala yun that means mag start na mag pass ng applications online and see if may willing magsponsor?

seems like yun lang tlga ang path na pwede for chemist ngayon.

nagpa assess na din ako sa vetassess. kakasubmit ko lang ng requirements.
hoping for a positive result.

mind_control · August 2017

Hi guys! So to make it simple, what are the options for chemists now?

Does 186 and 457 need a job offer bago makapaglodge?

And yung stream 2 for NSW, pwede pa rin ba tayo dun considering na nasa MLTSSL naman tayo?

Thanks sa mga sasagot!

more power to you guys!

markier87 · September 2017

Hi, fellow chemists!

I agree, the "Chemist" skill is quite unclear for now. Sa pagkakaintindi ko, we need to be sponsored by an employer for a chance to have a skilled migration. (refer to @krizzymalasig's post above)

My options, for now: 485, 186 or 457.

If may alam kayo about sa stream 2 ng NSW since nasa MLTSSL naman tayo, please share here as well.

All the best guys!
