    Hello po. Gusto ko lang po sana itanong, pregnant po kasi ako ngaun and March pa po expected delivery ko. Ok na po ang assessment ko and pede na mag EOI. advisable po ba yun na mag EOI na po ako? Or wait wait po muna ako na malapit na maipanganak si baby?

    I need your opinions po. Salamat. Di ko kasi alam kung pano ako magtutuloy sa application ko.

    @misisabat maam almost same situation .. I think depende po sa points nio now compared sa profesion nio po.. for example pag 75 points ka sa 189, maiinvite k n agad most likely.. if lower poins mas matagal.try to research po ung expected na date of invite nio po. try to check din po ung timetable ni ISCAH.. ty

    @gillianLeoh2017 thank you. I thought 65 kasi yun ang nakalagay sa skill select website. Pero para sa pro-rata occupation lang ba yun?

    Hi guys,

    I am look forward to work in au, but I guess my work experience does not fit in sa mga list of jobs, I am a technical support engineer ng emerson, more on refrigeration and hvac controllers ang support namin.
    Tanong ko lang, dapat ba sakto lahat sa qualification base on job description na makikita sa ANZSCO. Wala kasi akong makitang application engr. O kaya tec support sa listahan.

    Salamat and god bless

    @jabalmores sir ano po ang natapos nyong degree? Dun kayo magbabase kung sino mag aasess sa inyo e. kapag engineers australia kayo magpapa assess no work experience needed, pero hindi kayo makakaclaim ng points kung feel nyo na di in line sa nominated occupation nyo yung experience nyo.

    @Z&;Z kailangan mo malaman ang application number mo para maimport sa sarili mong immiaccount yung visa application mo. makikita mo naman yun sa receipt from DIBP or sa visa grant details.

    Hello po. may question sana ako regarding 189.. Tinitignan ko kasi yun points table and i was wondering ano ba yun usual na points na pwede maacquire. Di pako nakakagawa ng account pero i was able to start with the process na din.. ito ako so far.

    age - 30pts
    skill - 15pts
    english - havent taken yet

    based on this, im still 15 points short. so dapat superior makuha ko sa english (20 pts). are there any other categories for points? or yan lang usually nagaapply sa atin? i was wondering kasi parang lahat dapat max points ka on those 3 criterias para mameet yun point requirement. :/

    also, what if i have a sibling who's in australia already? may points ba na maaccount for that?

    thanks much sa makakatulong! :)

    Your Bachelor of Science in Information Technology from Mapua Institute of Technology
    completed xxxx has been assessed as comparable to an AQF Bachelor Degree with a
    Major in computing.

    does that mean may additional 15points ako for that?
