@VirGlySyl

you can refer to this video to clear things. I also thought na hindi pwede but my uncle’s case is example 2.

milktea13 · July 2018

@jeffasuncipn pero yung sa case nyo ba magpapalit agad ng name gf mo? Ang inaalala ko kase yung psa birth cert pag sinubmot sa eoi ang nakadeclare ay single

Mia · July 2018

@milktea13 There is no law in the Philippines requiring women to change their names after marriage. It's just common practice but you can do away with it if that's your choice. You can carry on using your maiden name if you want to, that's the name your parents gave you.

As for immigration purposes, it is strategic that you use your maiden name even after marriage or even if you really want to use your husband's surname if it is time-consuming and costly to have replacement documents.

The birth certificate DOES NOT show civil status... it's a report of your birth. So don't worry about it showing as single because it doesn't.

To show married status, just submit your marriage certificate and an updated NBI that shows married. Note that NBI and immigration authorities would want to have a PSA certified copy of your marriage certificate... for some instances this could take a while as well.

@Mia super thank you!

Hello, all! Clarify ko lang po if i need to have my husband get an employment/no of yrs experience assessment for the partner skills. My understanding po kasi is the only assessment required is if his degree is equivalent to Australian degree.
Hoping for to get clarification... lito na po

@annlb9 need ng positive skill assessment at dapat same sa list of occupation para makakuha ng additional 5pts.

jeffasuncipn · July 2018

Hi @annlb9 need nya to be assessed and nominated for a skill, otherwise hnd ka pede mag claim ng 5 points against him..

annlb9 · July 2018

Thanks for the replies.

Further clarification lang po...

I checked CPA Australia... Skills Assessment and Skilled Employment Assessment are not one and the same.

Skills Assessment - assessment if your qualification is equivalent to an Australian degree, mandatory competency areas are met, English proficiency requirement is met
Skilled Employment Assessment - assessment of employment history to determine if experience obtained is relevant to the chosen ANZSCO occupation.

Based on my understanding of the Home Office website, husband only needs Skills Assessment to satisfy Partner Skills points. Confirming my understanding po.

Question, ang partner points po ba valid lang kung ang partner ay kasama sa application as dependent ng main applicant na magclaim ng partner points?

Papaano kung ang applicant gusto mag claim ng partner points pero yung partrner nya hindi kasama as dependent kasi AU citizen/PR na? May case na ba na ganito? Appreciate sa mga response, thank you!

@Lawbadguy

Saw this in another website:

You can receive five points if your partner meets requirements at the time you are invited to apply relating to:

Age;
English Language Ability;
A suitable skills assessment in a nominated occupation on the same Skilled Occupation List used for your application.

You cannot receive these points if your partner is not included on your visa application, or if they are an Australian citizen or an Australian permanent resident.

@cucci maraming salamat!

Hello po sa lahat,

Ask ko lang po if malala claim si main applicant ng 5 points if:

Applying for SA visa 489 (min. 80pints) for Main Applicant: 251312
Main Applicant: 251312 (Health and Safety Advisor) => 65+(10 SS) + 5 (partner points)
Partner: 233511 (IE) 65pts (no SS)

milktea13 · July 2018

Hello po sa lahat!

Ilan po ba dapat witness sa civil wedding para ma acknowledge sa eoi? Pwede bang isa lang? Also, may required duration of married relationship sila pag ang aapplyan ay class 189?

Thank you

jeffasuncipn · July 2018

@milktea13 @ceinau15 hindi po ba ung marriage cert ok n po un?

batman · July 2018

@ceinau15 just submit PSA MC, then wait if they will ask for more. Don't over think.

Mia · July 2018

@milktea13 immigration will not scrutinise your marriage to that level. As long as the PSA certificate of your marriage is legitimate and genuine there would be no problems. As @batman said don't overthink it.

milktea13 · July 2018

@Mia @batman @ceinau15 thank you!

Waiting for EA results pa kami and parating palang cenomar sana by aug makasal kami kasi sept end ung probable na darating si ea. Derecho lodge hehe.

Hello guys! Good Morning! Ask ko lang po, recently meron ba sa inyo na invite as Accountant (General) at 75 points? at Engineering Technologist at 65 points?

Is it okey na parehas kami mag lodge ng EOI using both for us yung partner skills and wait nalang which ever comes first will be the main applicant?

I already submitted an EOI thru my agent last Oct 2017.
For my wife, is it okey for her to submit an EOI also? We are not planning to have an agent in her case and process docs with our selves.

My wife was assessed as a Accountant (General) [ANZSCO 221111] by CPAA and got a positive feedback for her qualifications (school credentials) & 10 years work experiences.

I was assessed as an Engineering Technologist [ANZSCO 233914] by EA and got a positive feedback for my qualifications (school credentials) & 5 years work experiences.

My wifes points:
Age: 25 Points
Englsh: 10 Points (PTE ACADEMIC)
Qualification: 15 Points (BS Accountancy)
Work Exp: 15 Points (10 years - Assessed by CPA)
Partner Skills: 5 Points (Husband - Engineering Tech - ANZSCO 233914)
State Nomination: 5 Points (NSW - SUBCLASS 190)
TOTAL POINTS: 75 POINTS

My Points:
Age: 30 Points
Englsh: 0 Points (Competent English)
Qualification: 15 Points (BS Mechanical Engineering)
Work Exp: 10 Points (5 years - Assessed by EA)
Partner Skills: 5 Points (Wife - Accountant (General) - ANZSCO 221111)
State Nomination: 5 Points (NSW - SUBCLASS 190)
TOTAL POINTS: 65 POINTS

Hope you can give some pointers, suggestion so we can start the process na.
Thanks In Advance!!!

jeffasuncipn · July 2018

@ceinau15 thank you for sharing this mas ok n nga ung may supporting docs ka at ready n kapaghiningi..

batman · July 2018

@mcril22 please avoid cross/double posting of the same inquiry to have an organized conversation in each thread. Thank you.

mcril22 · July 2018

@batman noted sir! thanks for reminding!
@ceinau15 thanks for your response!

but does anyone got news or somebody have an experience if they are invited with 75points (SC190-NSW)? or should target the required points as of today which is 80-85 points?
Thanks

batman · July 2018

@mcril22 no worries, I have a comment on the other thread where you posted.
75 points will have less chances as accountants invited lately are having 80 points. I know someone who have been waiting fro 2 years already with 75 points.

ced · July 2018

question lang po regarding sa pagclaim ng partner skill points, paano po ba yung sinasabing positive assessment? anu yung mga kelangan ma-meet ng partner para makuha yun? alam ko magpapa skill assessment din, meron bang remarks sa assessment? thanks po

sarahj05 · July 2018

hello po. may question po ako. yung partner ko po yung main applicant. ako po yung magiging dependent. di naman po namin iccalaim yung 5 points, so ibig sabihin po yung partner ko lang po magpapaassess for positive skill assessment? ako po hindi na? thank yoh very much po. @chyrstheen @Mia

dyanisabelle · July 2018

@sarahj05 kung not claiming for partner points no need for the partner's skill assessment

kymme · July 2018

@ced ano ba skill ng partner mo? dpende na din sa requirements ng assessing body kasi iba2 per skill

kymme · July 2018

@sarahj05 no need na if not claiming points. but just prepare ur personal docs din. and also certificate of english as medium of instruction from ur uni in Oh pra di ka na hingan ng english test
