Gusto ko lang po maliwanagan kung:
1. magappeal pa ba or review sa ACS result
2. push na lang sa ielts/pte or any english proficiency exam
3. dagdag pa ko ng exp kaso mawawala na ko sa 30 pts at new assessment na naman sa ACS

Work experience: 6yrs 8months
Magpapa-assess na po sana ako sa ACS but i'm having doubts kasi napansin ko normally nagdededuct sila ng 2years sa experience.
Sa situation ko magiging short ako ng 2months para sa 5yrs work experience. Sayang yung 5pts.
additional info ay lilipat po ako ng work this Oct 2017.
Ano po kaya ang pinaka maganda kong gawin?
1st option - Maghintay ng mga around March 2018 para at least may 6months experience na ako with my new employer before ako magpa-ACS?
2nd option - Magpa-ACS na ngayon? (Possible ba ihabol yung additional work experience)
Maraming salamat po sa mga advice at tutulong.
