jdtolentino88 · May 2019

Hi everyone. Question lang. Pano po kaya gagawin ko to update yung relevant working experience ko sa EOI?Naassess na kasi ako ng 7 years and was given 10 pts. But last week I just turned 8 years sa work ko (same company and position dun sa previous na naassess for 7 years). I was hoping I could claim additional 5 pts sana. Kailangan ko pa ba magpaassess ulit sa assessing body or automatic na maguupdate na sya sa EOI account?

auyeah · May 2019

Just a question lang po, we are claiming for Partner Skills. When filling out the employment history for the partner in the Immiaccount, do you include the entire employment history or only the employment considered by the assessing authority (ACS) na related sa nominated occupation? For partner kasi, wala na yung radio button to classify if the employment is related to the nominated occupation or not. Just wondering if we should include the actual employment history or remove the 2 year deduction from ACS.

To answer my question above, I think the entire employment history should be included.

Employment history
Provide details of your overseas and Australian employment in the last 10 years.

This can include previous employment that is not related to the applicant's nominated occupation or skills assessment.

List the most recent employment first.

A partial date can be entered in the 'end date' field of the applicant's current employment. For example, Oct 2012.

Hi @jdtolentino88 . EOI should update by itself since your current experience is open-ended and still counting. Kindy update us what happens. Good luck!

Yung sa marriage License number naman nasa babang part ng first signature nyo, sa 1st page din. after ng "I CERTIFY FURTHER THAT" a marriage license nol. _______ part. Yan yung nilagay ko. though correct nyo lang po kasi may Reg No din sa taas pero i opted to use the license # instead.

(reposting on this thread kasi po wala response sa engineers thread. salamat po.)
Hi po sa mga ECEs dito, tanong lang po ako for a friend na starting pa lang din sa AU dream nya. ECE po kasi sya pero working sa Telecom company. for almost 5yrs. May other experience sya sa Electronic company pero mas matagal sya and currently nsa Telecomm. Sa anong ANSZCO code kaya sya and saang accessing body sya?

Maraming salamat sa sasagot!

Kcm · May 2019

Hello po sa lahat.. Hingi po sana ako ng input .. I am currently at 75 points for Engineering Technologist occupation EOI updated in May and basing po sa current trend ng invites at sa migration plan ng Au government for skilled migration in the next 3 years medyo maliit ang chance na mainvite ang ganito pro rata occupation @75 points. Okay po ba ang plan na magstudent visa so in time makapagclaim ng 5 points and then another 5 points if sa regional area mag aaral? If state nomination nmn po wala pa masyado opportunity sa ganito occupation pwera lang sa Tasmania and Canberra na mataas din ang requirements sa mga matrix nila.
Or masyado po ba ako impatient ? .Willing to wait naman po sa other states to open pero ang tanong po is hanggang kailan ang paghihintay. Sana po ako ay maliwanagan..

marvelous · May 2019

hello po sa lahat, nag sisimula palang ako sa process, kaya tinry ko lang ung sinabi sa 1st step which is to submit an EOI.. pero how to proceed kaya kasi 1st question palang sablay na, or sadyang hindi na available ang 189 visa?
working na po ako sa IT industry for 5 years kaya gusto ko sana itry magapply dito.

RheaMARN1171933 · May 2019

@marvelous first step should be to do your skills assessment

maguero · May 2019

@marvelous Sa Skillselect ba yan o sa Immiaccount?

auyeah · May 2019

Hello @marvelous, tama si Ms @RheaMARN1171933. Have your skills assessed na muna so you’ll know your points for education and experience. Then, English exam. After doing these two requirements, you’ll have an idea na what your points will be:

Points Calculator
https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/help-support/departmental-forms/online-forms/points-calculator

You cannot submit an EOI without completing these requirements first

The minimum points to lodge an EOI is 65 pero to get invited you’ll need to have higher points depending on your ANZCSO code.

Skills Assessment

English Exam

Important to read this first na muna, before you start

Step by Step visa 189
https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/skilled-independent-189/points-tested#HowTo

auyeah · May 2019

Hello @Kcm, have you checked na ba in the immitracker kung anu ang trend for your occupation? How many points ba ang kailangan to get invited for your occupation? From April 2019 to June 2019, 100 invitations lang ang nirelease every month for 189 kaya top pointers and yung mga naunang nag lodge ang naprioritize. For 190, any day of the month sila nagiinvite depende sa need ng state.
Based on the trend and sa mga news na nabasa ko, invitations will increase again in the next financial year (starting July 2019).
I assume na you already have Superior English. Have you considered increasing your points by taking a NAATI certification or Partner Skills (if migrating with a partner)? Personally, I think mas madali yun na way to increase your points compared to studying. Check your options rin with state sponsorship (+5 pts) and regional sponsorship (+10 pts). You can submit naman multiple EOIs.
You can try to maximize your points na muna (using the options stated above) and check the trend of invites for your occupation in the next financial year. But if you have all the means (time & resources) to study in Australia and isa din talaga yun sa goals mo, then go for it. At the end of the day, it’s still up to you and kung hanggang kailan ikaw comfortable to wait. All the best!

Kcm · May 2019

@auyeah Thank you so much for your reply. Max na po PTE ko and yong naati is kapapasa ko lang April lumabas yong exam result. No option for partner skill ><. Naisip ko po kase kung ano pwede ko magawa in two years na may positive impact sa application ko. Kung this year ako magsisimula by the time I finish schooling expired na din PTE ko and so take nalang ulit. Yong NAATI is pwede pa gamitin. Pero yon din po ang one year experience ko na related ang hindi na pasok kase 2011 sya, so after two years mababawasan ako ng 5 points for overseas experience. If mag aaral ako sa regional area may expected ako na 10 points. So a total of 80 points ang pwede ko makuha assuming ma superior ko ulit ang PTE. All of the above if ever malabo talaga ang chance na mainvite in the next 2 years. Nangyari na po kase sya sa 70 pointers by 2018 sa pagkakaalam ko wala na nainvite for my profession for 189 (di ko lang sure), sa 190 naman open sya sa Tasmania for 489 (waiting din po dito) and Canberra (also waiting in vain) na ang taas din ng points sa matrix. So it seems ang 75 points na ang new 70 points for 189. Ang last nainvite with 75 points e yong mga EOI DOE early November 2018, so ang taas ng backlog, kasama na ang mga 80 pointers na di na nainvite sa May, di ko lang sure if may nainvite last April, in addition pa sa migration plan ng Aug government to reduce the number of intakes for skilled migation from 190,000 to 160,000 . Pwede din po naman na maghanap ako ng work sa Pinas na related sa occupation para masecure yong 5 points ko in case aabot ng 2 years ang paghihintay pero yon din wala sya masyado impact but to save lang sa 5 points na mawawala after two years sa experience and by that time pa expire na rin ang pte and naati ccl.. Yong student visa advantage lang sya sa case ko if sa regional area mag aaral. Yon din po consideration ang tuition fee medyo napaghandaan ng kunti at aware din po ako sa mga challenges nila dun pero may mga kakilala din po ako na nakapasok sa mas mura na school compared sa mga universities.
Pero yes tama po much better if observe ko muna ang trend ng invites after July, or baka may mga states na mag oopen and by November may pagbabago din sa point system. Sensya po sa mahaba na post.

donyx · May 2019

@Kcm how about considering 489? or the option of waiting for the new migration guidelines this November? wala pa nga lang nakakaalam kung anong implication nito sa current applicants waiting for invites.

Kcm · May 2019

@donyx Waiting din po for 489 sa Tasmania, so far eto palang state na alam ko na open for my occupation for 489. Sa Victoria for 190 may specific engineering fields sila na requirement para maconsider. Marami nga daw changes this coming fiscal year, and sa November, hopefully kahit papano may positive.. .Thanks po

marvelous · May 2019

@RheaMARN1171933 @auyeah @maguero
thank you po for your information
sa EOI po, ito ngttrial run lang sana ako to have an idea sa questions and i'd be prepared kapag tapos na ung ACS and IELTS/PTE, natatakot lng ako kasi mukhang wala ung 189 na nababasa ko sa choices..

i mean normal lang po ba ung ganito(sa screenshot) na temporarily closed ang normal 189 visa (since ang current 189 sa EOI ay need to be a NZ citizen / or stayed in NZ muna) salamat!

RheaMARN1171933 · May 2019

@marvelous as mentioned, skills assessment should be your focus. Instead of spending time understanding how EOI lodgement works, it would be more beneficial for you at this stage to navigate the assessing authority website instead so you can understand better the requirements you need to get a positive assessment.

marvelous · May 2019

i see, ok po thank you @RheaMARN1171933 !

auyeah · May 2019

@Kcm sobrang naaral mo na pala ang lahat ng options at na maximize mo na ang possible points na pwede mo makuha ngayon

timing nalang din talaga kung kailan mo ieexecute yung plans mo. Ang alam ko meron ding mga universities na nagooffer ng scholarship even for non-citizens or PRs. Pero good thing rin na napaghandaan mo na din pala sya. Kung mag study ka man ngayon and then nainvite ka din before you finish your study, magagamit mo naman yung inaral mo in your career kaya di naman sya masasayang. Right now kasi there’s really no assurance of anything. The trends change and there is a plan to reduce yung migrants for the next fiscal year. So I guess the sooner you can get the required points to secure an invitation for your occupation, the better. Pray about it. I am sure the Lord will give you the wisdom to take on the right decision and the perfect timing to execute it

Kcm · May 2019

@auyeah Yon din po crucial yong timing.. And yong study is kahit papano makakatulong din hopefully in the future sa job application. Pero yon po I am praying for this plan and hopefully kahit papano may progress na mangyayari within the year...Thank you thank you so much for your inputs.. God bless din po
