H @ms_ane actually we are just waiting for that statutory declaration from previous manager pero naabutan pa ng changes

naka ilang follow up na din kami
Need po ba ng work experience to have positive outcome even if di naman ngclaim ng points for work? As per understanding for partner pts, we just need positive outcome? Thank you!!

- kapatid pinaka mahirap tlaga yan maghabol, na experience natin lahat marahil. Ganyan talaga pag wala na tayo sa company, less priority na.
As far as I know a positive assessment for both education and skilled work experience is what constitutes a positive outcome. Maaring mali din ako kaya wait tayo ng sagot ng iba.

Mga changes na napansin ko:

ACS requires coloured scan of the ORIGINAL documents unlike before na needed ang certified true copy
In scanning, minimum of 300dpi na instead of maximum 200dpi
Pag nagpa stat dec, need na ng COE ng declarant
Evidence of paid employment
Migration agent authorization form (if applicable)

Kakascan ko pa naman ng mga certified true copies ng docs ko earlier this week...

Since nagbago po ung requirements ni ACS...meron po kaya d2 nakapag upload ng docs na nakaCTC? Pano po idelete ung nauploaf na docs? Or ok lng po ba na create ng new account? Salamat po

About coloured scan of the ORIGINAL documents, this means no need to notarize ALL documents except for Stat Dec right? Just scan the original documents and upload?

Hello po, I just received an email that my ACS membership is about to expire. I am currently waiting for my grant. Need ba mag renew for ACS? TIA!!!

Supersaiyan · October 2019

I wonder kung in case na magrerenew na lng sa ACS ulit, eh since may reference number na ng old application dati at naibaba na nila ang hatol, kakailanganin pa dn kaya ng COE ng nag sign sa stat doc lalo kung hndi nman for claiming ng points?

- kapatid musta na?

feeling ko hindi na mag apply ang new ruling kapag renewal nalang, given na yun application has already been decided prior to the new rule. If sa renewal e may bagong employment na ipapa assess then doon marahil mai aapply ang bagong rule.
Pero para sure you can send email to ACS para formal ang statement hehe

hikari · October 2019

Hello po! ask ko lang po kung required pa din naka CTC yung mga documents? Per checking kasi sa new ACS Application Checklist, ang kaylangan na daw iscan is Original documents in Colour? So no need na po ipa CTC yung docs di po ba?

ionnagab0222 · October 2019

Hi @damassh yes po colored copy na lng kelangan nla...nasayang nga dn ung pina CTC ko...nag email ako sa knila...eto po reply...

mandark_d_gray · October 2019

All,

Eto po link nung new guidelines:

https://www.acs.org.au/content/dam/acs/acs-skills/SkillsAssessmentGuidelinesforApplicants.pdf

I compared the previous version since I downloaded it and yun nga, dati you need CTC ng mga credentials like TOR and diploma, scan it (coloured) then max is 200dpi.

Now, they need the ORIGINAL docs, meaning original copy ng TOR and diploma naten then, scan it (coloured) and MINIMUM is 300dpi.

Hope this helps.

Hello All, just received my ACS assessment. Question regarding this... The following employment after 12 August 2012 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled...

This year, total work experience credited is 7 yrs (10 points). Ongoing pa din yung latest employment na credited sa assessment. So next year, when I lodge the EOI, and abutan ng 12 August 2020, automatic ba magiging 8 yrs yung work experience credited (15 points)? No need magpa-reassess?

Thanks everyone! Happy weekend!

udonggo · October 2019

aba e di mas madali na ngayon. wala na hassle ng notary at stamp ng documents !!! YAHOO!! hirap pa naman pag nasa ibang bansa ka tapos need umuwi para sa CTC !! nadagdagan lang ng "Evidence of paid employment" okay nadin

Izanagi · October 2019

Hello all,

May questions po ako, expired na ung ACS ko so need ulit mag pa assess. Sa new ACS rules,

7.3 Payment Evidence
ACS requires sufficient evidence of paid employment to verify your employment and that your pay is commensurate with the skill level for your position.
Payment Evidence must include at least two of the following to cover the relevant period of employment:
• Official government tax records or documents that may include payment summaries, group certificates or notices of assessment (citing company and applicant name)
• Payslips citing names of the applicant and employer
• Employment linked insurance/superannuation documents citing the name of the applicant and employer
• Bank statements showing salary payments from employer (citing applicants name and name of employer).
---- meaning at least 2 ung need I provide? Oh noh sana kahit 1 nlng. Meron na po ba dito na kapag pasessment na payslip lng na provide?

Another question po,

7.1 Employment References
Please Note:
• If your employment is “Current”, the employer reference should state the term “To Date” and MUST include the date the reference was written.
-----since nakapa pa assess na ko dati and wla nmn nagbago sa current work pwede ko pa kayang magamit ung dati kong Stat Dec

hikari · October 2019

another question po pala, yung huli ko kasing company di nagbibigay ng coe with job desc. pero yung employment reference ko pinirmahan na lang ng manager ko. Meron din po company letter head. Kapag ganun po ba required pa din ipanotaryo?

tapos po pala, napansin ko kasi sa new guidelines for stat dec:
The following Statutory Declarations or Affidavits are NOT suitable:

The declaration is NOT witnessed on the same day

Does it mean po ba na dapat yung date nung employment reference and date nung pirma ng manager ko is same sa date ng notaryo?

salamat po sa sasagot.

Supersaiyan · October 2019

@ms_ane eto po malapit na maexpire-an ng ACS. Haha. Thanks po sa reply.

Izanagi · October 2019

@Supersaiyan kamusta na bro? Superior mo na ba? Ung agent ko nde ako na inform expired na ung ACS at need pla magsubmit ulit. Ako nlng daw magsubmit ng sarili ko.

Okay lang kaya mag ask ng queries d2 sa email add [email protected]? Mabilis kaya cla magreply?

Thanks

mandark_d_gray · October 2019

@damassh ang pagkaka intindi ko po dyan eh kapag yung employee reference or COE mo eh using a company letterhead and authorized ng company or HR nyo si manager mo na pumirma dun to acknowledge, good na yan. di mo na need ng stat dec.

Now dun po sa "The declaration is NOT witnessed on the same day", ang understanding ko dyan, dapat same date kung kelan napa notarize yung stat dec sa pirma nung decalarant or dun sa tao na nagpatunay ng job and functions mo dun sa stat dec. Pwde kasi naten pagawa di ba na yung stat dec eh pirmahan ni colleague/manager/director today so date is today tapos yung pirma nung witness or notaryo eh bukas or some other day.

Sa AU embassy or High Commission kasi, blank dapat dun sa signature portion nung stat dec. Dun mismo pipirmahan in front of consul as a witness.

Full disclaimer po ha: eto lang understanding ko dyan. I maybe right or wrong.

mandark_d_gray · October 2019

@Izanagi di pa po kami nagpapa assess pero kung ako po sa inyo, I wouldn't take risk na wag sumunod sa guidelines nila para walang problems and delay. Siguro nga po to clarify, send them an email to ask your questions and update kami dito sa thread.

RheaMARN1171933 · October 2019

@Izanagi yes, they are quick to reply and very helpful. That’s the best way to get the right and valid information vs info from this forum. I highly encourage this. Best of luck

Izanagi · October 2019

@mandark_d_gray , sure. Kaka send ko lang ng email sa kanila.

hikari · October 2019

@mandark_d_gray maraming salamat po sa pagreply. Actually po kasi, ginamit na lang namin yung company letterhead and sya na lang po yung pumirma? okay lang po kaya yun? di kasi nagbibigay yung company ko ng coe with job description.

jessec · October 2019

Hi all, nagpaasses ako last June, that time ang school ko nagfall pa sa section 2, na assessed ang educ ko as aqf associate degree major in computing and nabawasan ang exp ng 5 yrs and 2 mons.

Lately nakita ko naupdate ung school ko to section 1. Possible ba na pag nagpare asses, maconsider na as bachelor degree ang educ ko and malessen ang mininus na exp?

gelangel · October 2019

Hi.. ask ko lang po, ilang payslips ang required for payment evidence?

Panorama1 · October 2019

Hi Guys,
question about ACS guidelines especially on 7.3 page 14, Payment evidence. last na nagpa assess kasi ako sa ACS eh 2017 pa, and i need to be reassessed again.

https://www.acs.org.au/content/dam/acs/acs-skills/Skills Assessment Guidelines for Applicants V5-6 Aug 2018.pdf

Yung employer ko 2012 pa, ang meron lng ako is yung sa BIR tax document wala ng payslip. nearest document relating to "payment" is my COE which indicates my salary. will that be enough?

Thanks
