Congrats for the september medtech applicants who applied for visa 189. Now that the financial 2020-2021 report has posted, I hope & pray for the 190 offshore applicants will receive an immediate ITA as well.

I talked to AIMS kaso ang labo nila kausap. sabi nila send lng daw ako requirements for assessment kahit sabot ko hndi ako aabot sa minimum req nila for exp. So tinanong ko what other things I can do to be qualified. Hindi daw nila alam... basta mag send lng ako ng requirements for assessment

You have to understand from their perspective, they need to see your documents before they can make their judgement. This is no different to an aspiring migrant asking a migration agent if they can lodge their eoi without providing the documents they have. An agent would need to see the documents to provide an accurate judgement.

I talked to them earlier. They gave me 3 options and all of them were to study either Bachelors', Masters' or a TAFE course + Work Exp.... the nearest accredited school for me is 6hours away so I don't think I have that much of an option. Maybe I'll make a career change instead.

@RheaMARN1171933 what do you mean mam about the policy for this current year?

@RheaMARN1171933 what do you mean mam about the policy for this current year?

It was recently announced that onshore applicants will be given priority over offshore and also other visa categories too.. GSM category is down for the current Australian financial year. This is in response to the pandemic as they need to focus on strengthening their economy. Hence, it’s unlikely to get an invite for this financial year....but this is for sure temporary. As the economy recovers, it is likely migration places will increase again. For now, best to focus on strengthening your case, making sure all your docs are compliant and lodge your EOI as early as possible so when all these restrictions are lifted, your EOI is already in place ready for an invite. This setback shouldn’t stop...just carry on but be more strategic.

Yes po, additional 5 points nung dinagdag ko ung experience ko after assessment. Nag inquire po ako sa AIMS pero di nila masagot kasondi daw cla affiliated sa DHA. Ang mganda lang is di ka na mag eexam pag magpapare assess ka ng additonal experience.

Or pwede ko nlang iclaim ung ung 8 yrs tutal saktong 8 yrs naman xa mgfall if icount ko til May 2020 na work expe ko. Thank you in advance po

lecia · November 2020

Pag hindi nasama sa assessment ang employment, nagdagdag ng points at need magclaim, kelangan ng re assessment @Hear25 @Desert_Cowboy ..

So far sa friend ko mabilis ang re assessment nya,. Ang COE kasi nya until Jan 2019 lang, 7yrs and 10 months lang. So 10 points lang sya sa experience, ngayon nagwork ulit sya sa new company, nagpa reassess sya sa new experience nya. Nagclaim na sya ng 15 points sa experience. Nainvite at na grant na din.

@Hear25 Bale po sa previous company ko un ung end date na nilagay ay ung date nag COE letter (kasi up to present ung nakalagay sa letter) so if ever hindi sya tugma sa employment history ko.

Initial assessment:
start date: April 11, 2012
end date: Dec. 16,2013 (date of the COE letter)

Re-assessment:
start date: April 11,2012
end date: Aug 22, 2014 (COE given when i resigned) - Correct date
