VETASSESS question

RheaMARN1171933 · April 2018

@athelene I always advice my clients that it's easy to use an occupation which is lower level. With regards to job titles, it really doesn't matter. The duties are more important. Skills assessment is tye make or break so make sure you've covered everything required by the authority. All the best!

kaidenMVH · April 2018

@athelene yup. ok po yan kasi kahit ma positive ka sa AACA ngayon, for visa application purposes lang yun, you still need to be accredited and take their exam to be recognized as Architect. kaya why go through all the hassle :-)
sa pagkakaalam ko MArch lang recognized ng AACA at NSW board of architects. yun iba like master's in urban planning ibang org ang nagbibigay ng accreditation. Balak ko din sana kung kaya pa ng time at budget kasi iba na pag may family hehe. mejo kailangan i balance, pero i'm looking into UNSW kasi parang mas open sila sa part timers.

athelene · April 2018

@RheaMARN1171933 ah I see. Sige po susubukan ko sa vetassess hehe salamat po!

@kaidenMVH oo nga po, at mahal din po yung assessment fee hehe. Baka pag mas nakaipon na saka ko susubukan magpaassess sa aaca. Nag-inquire ako actually sa aaca kung papaano yung postgrad degree from Australia na hindi MArch, sabi nila pwede isama yung Australian degree sa OQA application as long as archi-related. Ah mas ok yung unsw for part-timers? Then ok din pala hehe. Go for it sir @kaidenMVH

ibabawas nila yun 1st year, which is considered as qualifying year. kumbaga parang rookie ka pa lang nun, and hindi ka pa considered as skilled. then yun isang work ko di na count kasi talagang malayo sya, pero 3 months lang naman yun duration dun.

athelene · April 2018

@kaidenMVH ay hala, then hindi ako makakaclaim ng 5 years overseas work experience kung ibabawas nila yung 1 year

sakto 5 years po kasi ang work experience ko (2 years sa pinas, then 3 years sa taiwan)

pd ka pa din naman pa assess. as long as positive un assessment may points pa din yun 3-5 years na work exp. 5 points din yun. 5-8 is 10 points & 8-10 years is 15 points.

athelene · April 2018

@kaidenMVH iniisip ko sana i-claim yung 5 years, pero kung 4 years lng ang macclaim ko because of that one "rookie" year, sayang yung 5 points. i wonder kung pwede ko kaya ma-compensate yun by working part-time sa Australia while student visa?

kat28 · April 2018

@daydreamer hello thanks for the reply. Wish you well sa application mo. Share mo if nakakuha ka na ng postive response. Thank you!

Hendro · April 2018

For those who are applying for vetassess assessment and you dont have any AU address sa forms you dont need to pay the GST and submit any evidences.

athelene · April 2018

@Hendro this is for off-shore applications, right? Thanks for the info

Hendro · April 2018

Hi @athelene yes po

blue5teel · April 2018

Hi guys,

Just want to ask everyone else opinion if what I have right now is enough to submit for assessment:

Company A (Latest)
CoE - OK (Generic)
Contract - OK
Payslip - OK

Company B
CoE - OK (Generic)
Contract - OK
Payslip - Lost

Company C
CoE - OK
Contract - *only have a copy of work visa, is this ok?
Payslip - none, as we are paid by cash personally

Company D
CoE - OK
Contract - OK
Payslip - Lost

Iniisip ko po kung may kelangan po ba akong iproduce na StatDec for any of which?

Thanks for your kind replies in advance.
Happy weekend!!!!

daydreamer · April 2018

@blue5teel

Your coe must include the following information:
-start and end date of employment
-position/s held
-compensation
-status of employment
-working hours

Dapat printed din cya with company letterhead. If wala yang mga information na yan and generic lang ang coe need mo ng stat dec.

Regarding evidence of paid employment if walang payslip pede itr. If wala bank statement or mga contribution sa sss, philhealth or pagibig. Yan yung mga nabasa ko dito if wala sila payslip.

Visit vetassess website andon ung list of document requirements.

ysabelle · April 2018

may validity po ba ang Vetassess results?

athelene · April 2018

@ysabelle yes, typically 3 years po, unless stated otherwise.

blue5teel · April 2018

@daydreamer
Thanks sa reply.

Sorry about sa term "generic", meaning eto un standard format na binibigay ng company & they are saying na they cannot state more than anything aside sa format nila as this is as per company's SOP.

Anyway, un mga CoE ko naman is printed with company's letterhead, stating my start-end date, position & compensation, un iba may working hours.

Now about sa proof of payment, which is un iba ay wala ako. Check ko kung makakakuha ako ng file sa SSS or BIR. If not, do I have to provide Stat Dec.?

daydreamer · April 2018

@blue5teel try to access it online. Sss, pagibig and philhealth makikita mo contribution mo online. Just print a screenshot. Dun ako kumuha. Although diko sinubmit un upon assessment kasi meron naman ko payslips and itr. Pang backup lang just in case humingi.

blue5teel · April 2018

@daydreamer , yes po. thanks a lot po.:D

@RheaMARN1171933 Hi! I need advise please, or anyone who have the same experience? I got a negative assessment for ANZSCO code 149212. The Vetassess assessing officer said that my function is more on operational than customer support. The thing is, I own a small business where I am also the CS manager. In the COE and Statutory Declaration that I submitted, I have 5 functions that were very similar to what’s in the ANZSCO job desc, but I also have 4 functions there, that I just realized now, are more operational. My case officer said that I can opt for the reassessment but I have to keep in mind the result of the first assessment. I need help please on how to tackle this. What supporting documents should I submit? I submitted client testimonials and even statement from my accountant where they mention my functions as CSM but it seems that the officer solely relied on the job description in my COE and CV. It was on priority processing by the way, and I received the negative outcome on the 6th day. Help please. I just don’t want to give up yet.
Thank you so much in advance

seochellaga · April 2018

hello po, ask ko lng po ano ano need i pa ctc? thanks po.. if walang payslip ok po ung notice of assessment or tax?

blue5teel · April 2018

hello @seochellaga, mukang hindi na yata kelangan mag pa CTC, as long as colored scanned documents un gagamitin mo. and yes, pwedeng gamitin proof of employment un SSS, Philhealt, Pagibig & ITR records aside sa payslips

ajhay · April 2018

Hi! Anybody here po na PTA ang hinihintay na result sa Vetassess? Ilang weeks po usually ang PTA bago magkaresult?
Thank you!

archdreamchaser · April 2018

Help naman po.. nakarecieve ako ng email from vetasses, regarding my assessment, see below. Kasi previously draftsman ako then naging architect.. worried lang ako kung ano magiging effect nito sa application ko. and ilang days ba dapat ako makapagsend ng another stat dec.. Need ko ba iupload ulit yun supporting docs ng company like payslips etc. Thanks po sa sasagot.

Reason: Other
Comment:
Please provide an updated statutory declaration for your employment

athelene · April 2018

@archdreamchaser nagpareassess ka for architect occupation? hindi po ba sa AACA yun? or are you referring lang to your previous and current occupations?

If wala naman silang deadline na sinabi I think you just submit the stat dec whenever it's ready; the sooner you submit, the sooner they can continue with your assessment. Are they asking you to clarify why you changed your occupation or position title from Draftsperson to Architect? Or may documents ka na hindi naipasa the first time you submitted? Their request is a bit vague kasi, I would recommend you contact them to clarify their request, hindi naman masama magtanong and they're generally open to questions (I've been asking them questions via email recently).

odwight · April 2018

Hi,

nag aa-apply ako for Points Test Only and nasa process ako ng upload ng mga certificate.
after ko na ma upload yung mga certificate ko nang-hihinge pa rin sya ng "Award Certificate".

Bali meron akong Associate of Computer Technology at Degree in Computer Science. Pareho nag upload na ako ng mga certificate ko under "Graduation Certificate" pero nghahanap pa rin ng "Award Certificate"(??)

anyone na naka encounter neto? ano po ba yung "Award Certificate" na hinihingi neto?

eto yung buong error :

"Before you can submit your application, please upload the following required documents and try again.
Qualification – Award Certificate"

Salamat po ng marami. = )

athelene · April 2018

@odwight I believe Award Certificate refers to the bachelor degree diploma, baka optional yung Graduation Certificate or it refers to the high school diploma. Can you try uploading your diplomas only to the Award Certificate section?

archdreamchaser · April 2018

@athelene

nagpareassess ka for architect occupation? hindi po ba sa AACA yun? or are you referring lang to your previous and current occupations? - "designation ko sa company started as draftsman to Architect" kaya sa StatDec ko nilagyan ko "forward slash" kasi same company lang sya. 8 weeks na since nagsubmit ako for assessment,

If wala naman silang deadline na sinabi I think you just submit the stat dec whenever it's ready; the sooner you submit, the sooner they can continue with your assessment. - wala sila binigay na deadline sa akin. I already check their email and response sa Vetassess account ko.

Are they asking you to clarify why you changed your occupation or position title from Draftsperson to Architect? Or may documents ka na hindi naipasa the first time you submitted? Their request is a bit vague kasi, I would recommend you contact them to clarify their request, hindi naman masama magtanong and they're generally open to questions (I've been asking them questions)

I'm a bit worried lang kasi yan 8 yrs exp ko sa company na pinaparevise ang Stat Dec ko, Although in progress naman ang status ko.

Thanks...
