May question lang. :-/
I submitted EOI for 190 NSW.
1. I would like to know what documents I need to prepare once I get pre-invited to apply for NSW nomination.
Sabi nila eto daw. Pa check if may sobra (di naman kelangan or optional) or kulang:
CV, Diploma, Transcript, COE, Employment contract, Payslip, PTE, Passport then Skill Assessment
2. Does that mean I need to get yung payslip ng bawat company na pinagtrabaho ko? Yung payslip ba is mandatory?
3. As well as yung employment contract for each company?
4. Enough na ba na kahit COE lang?
All the best. >-

I read a post that someone passed an application for state sponsorship and received this reply:
"Unfortunately our Industry Panel will be unable to assess your skills based upon your current CV. Please provide a detailed CV, including further details around the description of responsibilities and daily tasks performed within employment. Ensure that this includes dates of employment specifying month and year, and clarifies any gaps in employment.
Out of curiosity, may mga applicants ba dito sa forums na may gaps kayo sa employment niyo, and then hindi niyo nilagay sa CV, and yet nakakuha parin kayo ng nomination ng state whether VIC or NSW? (or any state)
(Same goes rin to anyone na nakakuha ng grant ng visa upon visa application).
Anyone? :-/

you will be required to provide proof of paid employment dun na mismo after ma lodge mo yung 190 visa. the state will not ask for that yet kasi assessment lang yung kanila. once invited, mg lodge kna ng 190, dun mo na i submit lahat ng docs from school, employment etc. if you’re claiming points for employment as per skills assessment, provide as much proof as u can like COE, contracts, payslip, ITR, SSS contribution etc. kasi pag di ma satisfy ang case officer mo, ma CO contact ka and more wait times kasi hihingi at hihingi cla nyan. may mga case officer na chill lang pro may iba strict.
as per my case, sa claimed exp ko i submitted COE, professional reference (for nurses), tax assessment from ATO, ALL payslip in 1 pdf file. sa unclaimed exp, COE and professional reference lang
