De facto - Partner skill assessment

LermieLermie SingaporePosts: 18Member
Hello Guys,

Good Day!

I'm not sure if this question was already asked in this forum (ni check ko wla talaga ako Makita eh ☹ ). Me and my boyfriend are planning to submit skill assessment (ACS) hopefully next month. My boyfriend is the main applicant and we are planning na kunin nya yung 5 points sakin (partner skills). We are both programmers so same yung skilled occupation list namin.

My Questions are:
1. Need ba yung work experience ko more than 5 years? As per understanding yung work experience is minus 2 years. Or is it as long as my school degree match with my job description?
2. Do I need to get 60 points in my skill assessment even though dependent lng ako?


Highly appreciate if someone can answer my questions.

Thanks a lot and God Bless. :)

    Hello,

    1. Several factors affecting your assessment. Like, yung school category, if section 1 and closely related sa occupation, you will need at least 2 years of exp, if not related sa occupation, possible need ng 4 years. If Section 2 or 3, you need to have a PRC license para makuha ang bachelors degree, if not you need at least 4-6 years of related exp. Kung hindi naman ICT related course, at lease 6 years of exp.

    2. hindi kelangan points for skill assessment, yung primary lang need maka reach ng at least 60 pts to qualify sa EOI, you can use your assessment as partner points to claim additional 5 points.

    Hi @Lermie , de facto rin kami ng boyfriend ko (girl ako hehe), and done na with ACS. I agree with @Heprex's points.

    Just to add.. As the partner of the main applicant, the only thing you need to worry is AT THE LEAST - i-acknowledge ni ACS ung role mo.

    Kasi, kahit 0 points na makuha mo after ACS assessment, meaning kulang pa work experience, or nasa ibang school category uni mo, and say, andaming deductions at umabot ka na to zero point - hindi talaga eto ung problem mo.

    As a dependent, 0 point is better, than be assessed by ACS na - the list of your submitted work job description does not match the skill you are applying for. In this case, di pwedeng magclaim si primary ng points from you.

    Hello @fugu.umeda.

    Super thanks po sa answer. :)

    (girl rin po ako..hehehe.) Both of us are IT graduate (clasm8t po kami 1st year to 4th year nung college nang bf ko) at kami po dalawa ay programmer. Pero yung work experience ko kasi is palipat lipat ako nang work kaya cya yung main applicant kasi 2 lng nagging company nya tas puro long term..Currently mag 5 years na cya sa company nya ngayon as a programmer rin. Then almost 3 years yung sa pilipinas.

    Nung pag submit nyo po nang skill assessment para maka claim yung partner nyo nang 5 points may option bah dun naka lagay na dependent ako? To make sure na maka claim si primary nang points ko. hehehe.. :)

    Yung total work experience ko is 6 years...Pero not sure if counted yung mga short term (contractual). Same Job rin po, programmer (software developer). As of now po my COE na ako sa company ko with full job description. Dapat e lagay ko po lahat nung work experience ko? Tama po bah? hehehe..Super thanks po. :)

    God Bless! :)

    @ceinau15 yep, for ACS lang yun. Sa ICT kase need mo ng certain amount of exp para ma-assess na suitable. Ibang situation ang sa EA. Pero same concept lang, dapat suitable ang assessment.

    @Lermie I think you've got things mixed up. Basically, you have to go through stages before you can apply for the visa. First, you have have your skills assessed to be equivalent to Australian skills then you lodge an EOI to get invited. This is where you need to pass the points test. Once you get an invite, you have 60 days to lodge your visa application. Hope this helps.

    Hi @RheaMARN1171933, question lang po. I am the principal applicant for Visa 189. My ANZcode is 263111. My wife is a Chef for 4 years already. Both profession are listed sa MLTSSL. Need po ba nya rin mgbayad for the skill assessment nya? In my case sa ACS po ako and sya for the Culinary. Need ko po kasi additional points from partner skills.

    @Heprex question lang po same sa previous question ko for partner skills. Ako po principal and IT and wife ko po is Chef. As partner skills po, need din po ba sya maassess ng TRA before EOI?

    Hello po, husband ko po ang main applicant (ACS, MLTSS sya)). Gusto ko sanang maka-add ng 5 points for partner skills qualification. May IELTS (at least 7) na ako but technical writer ang work ko (computer enginerring degree). Kaso nasa STSOL ang technical writer and hindi applicable sa subclass 189. But kailangan daw nasa MLTSSL ang job ko para makaclaim ako ng 5points. Tama po ba? Mas mabuti yata hindi nalang ako magpapaassess sa VETASSESS. May chance pa po bang makaclaim ako ng 5points? Salamat!!

    Ito yong requirements na nabasa ko sa Internet:
    You must provide evidence that your partner meets the requirements. This evidence must be:
    1. documents that prove your partner is 50 years of age or younger
    2. documents that prove your partner has at least competent English
    3. a positive skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority for your partner’s nominated occupation (your partner’s nominated occupation must be on the same Skilled Occupation List as your nominated occupation).

    Hello,
    If de-facto but we do not intend to get the additional 5pts. No need na po to submit anything for my partner sa ACS, tama po ba? No need narin to take the IELTS for my partner sa Visa Application nalang po for the proof?
    Thank you!

    @rurumi no need for ACS assessment if no plan to get partner points. You "might" need IELTS/PTE or any accredited english test by Aus Immig if your partner has no CEMI (or the case officer won't allow it).

    Hello po. Question lang ako regarding claiming the de facto points. Pwede ba ang gf/bf status lang but not living together?

    What a de facto relationship is
    You and your partner are in a de facto partner relationship if all of the following applies:

    you are not legally married to each other
    you are committed to a shared life to the exclusion of all others
    your relationship is genuine and continuing
    you live together or do not live separately and apart on a permanent basis
    you are not related by family.
    Your relationship can be with someone of the same or different sex.

    Length of relationship
    Usually, your de facto relationship must have existed for at least 12 months immediately before you apply for the visa.

    Time spent dating or in an online relationship does not count as being in a de facto relationship.

    Thanks sa sasagot :)

    @krizzymalasig hi, living together is a requirement to be in a de facto relationship. Otherwise it's just bf/gf. De facto kasi is parang married na din, so your relationship should be domestic.

    Hello @RheaMARN1171933 , ask ko lng po sana. naka pag skill assessment napo kami. Both of us nang fiancé is under the same ANZSCO code. My fiancé is the main applicant tas dependent ako, then plan namin kukunin nya yung points ko. Ang weird part lng is both of us go to the same school (clasm8t kami nang college) pero yung result sa skill assessment is associate ako tas cya is bachelor, then deduction ko is 5 years tas cya is 2 years lng. Both of us are programmers rin. So parang yung points ko sa experience is 0 na kasi yun ni deduct is 5 years. Pero sabi na yung skills ko is suitable for migration under same ANZSCO as my fiancé. So okay lng bah if 0 yung points ko as long as ni accept nila yung skills ko as yung sa ANZSCO code?

    Nag tataka talaga ako eh bakit associate yung sakin tas 5 years binawas eh same lng nmn kami nang work ni fiancé. baka nakulitan cla kasi follow-up ako nang follow-up sa kanila kasi more than a month na yung skill assessment hindi pah nag respond. :))

    @Lermie it's hard for me to comment on the assessment outcome without seeing your docs. With regards to claiming partner skills, all you need is to be assessed positively, meet the age requirement, occupation must be in the same list and English requirement. All the best!
