Your work experience is not Engineering related and cannot be recognised as Relevant Skilled Employment
The submitted Career Episodes show significant similarities to material available online
Now sabi ng agent ko na need mag sulat ng letter to reciprocate the orig outcome...

I've had the standard CDR assessment which only indicates that my qualification is comparable to a bachelor's degree in AU. If, for instance, your EA outcome letter does not explicitly mention that your experience is not engineering related, maybe you can gamble and let the immigration department decide if your work experience is related or not.
Just my thoughts. Anyway, I think you have a migration agent assisting you with the application. He/she knows best on what should be done on your application.

@RheaMARN1171933 Thank you for enlightenment on my case. You mentioned that you are a migration agent, so in my case should you advice for me to go and file for a formal appeal? Do you have any reference on how to right an effective cover letter for this?
Thank you in advance.
