Nice. No need to worry about plagiarism. Regarding the fast track, yeah medyo disappointed ako sa case ko pero majority dito maganda experience as fast track. I'm not sure if may problems ba sa application ko pero will wait until tomorrow then I will contact them directly.

Kahit RSEA sir? Thank you po. I mean may sinama po kase ako na 8months lang sa assessment ko. Hehe

It will be credited regardless the length of employment. As long as the tasks match with the ANZSCO definition. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean you will gain further points by having it assessed as you can claim 5 points for 3 to 4 years experience. 10 points for 5-7 years then 15 points for 8+years. This means if that 1 month experience would help you get further points, then it’ll be worth getting it assessed otherwise perhaps you’re better off waiting a bit longer. Hope that makes sense.

Para saken kung di ka sure sa icclaim mo na points ng exp magpaassess ka ng RSA. Sa case kasi nmin confident ako na related at solid ung exp ko to claim ung exp. kasi ang magdedecide pa din nmn kung tama ang claim mo o mali ay ung DHA kahit may assessment kna ni EA sa RSA.
Pero mas maganda pa din cyempre kung nagpaassess ka ng RSA kasi may confident ka sa icclaim mo na points.
Ganwa lng nmin di kme nagpaassess kasi nagttipid kme kulang kme s budget pero sugal un.
Sana makatulong.😀

Para di mo na pahirapan si case officer. Nacheck na ng EA. Sa dami ng hinahandle ni case officer. Makakatipid ka nga, pero si case officer, marami pa iverify. Mas okay na wala na siya iisipin, spoon feed mo lahat ng docs.

Hello ulit.
Regarding sa payment for assessment, via credit card lang po ba siya pwede? Or meron po kayong maish-share na tips to avoid foreign transaction fee? Dalawa po kasi kaming magpapa-assess kaya medyo malaki din ang fee hehe. Thanks!! 😊

Salamat po sa sagot.. actually last Aug 16 nailodge namin.. hindi namin alam na everytime inoopen namin ang EA account namin is automatic gumagawa ng application account ang EA.. yung nalodge na account is yung walang RSA.. basically CDR+fast track lang ang nasubmit. Nastress na si misis sa paglog ng net sa bahay (Philippines), paggawa ng CDR, pagcollect ng documents (Philippines & Singapore) all in a span of 2 weeks so I can't blame her. Naiattach naman lahat ng documents including yung mga employment certs ng previous companies ko na di kasama sa CDR. We emailed EA if we can still add for RSA pero walang response. Matinding prayer nalang na maconsider yung lahat ng work experience ko para di narin kailanganin ang RSA which is $480 instead of $380

Are you a temporary visa holder in Australia? The skill assessment is generally used for skilled migration purposes. EA's website has detailed information about skill assessment, so I suggest you start there as it is more updated. If you have particular questions about the process, use the Search function and search for specific threads or posts using keywords.

If you already have a pending partner visa application, then you probably might not need to do a skill assessment since you're not migrating as a skilled engineer. If you are looking to be a member of EA without having to do any skill or competency assessment, you can only be an Affiliate member. If you want full membership status, you might have to do a Competency Assessment (which is different from a Migration Skills Assessment). If you are looking to work as an engineer in Australia, I do not know if companies will require you to have a Competency Assessment in order to be eligible to do engineering work, especially if your qualification is from the PH. You might have to ask companies you plan to apply for if they hire people with overseas qualifications without having to do any skill assessment.
https://engineersaustralia.org.au/Membership/Assessment-Process
I have just checked the EA website about the accords. The Washington, Sydney, and Dublin Accord only applies to you if you have completed an engineering qualification from the countries in the list under full signatories (Philippines is only a provisional signatory for the Washington Accord, so I doubt you could apply under that pathway). If you have not completed an accredited engineering degree in Australia, then the CDR pathway will be your way to go.

There’s no need for you to have your skills assessed via EA for migration purposes as you are not applying for a skilled visa. However, some states require that engineers are registered before they can work as engineers. There is a section on the EA website about this. Also check the state requirements to find out more about this.

noted maam @athelene , RheaMARN1171933 ,.tanong ko lng po maam. ano po bang magandang maibigay saatin kung magpa member ka sa EA?or magpa Assest ng Accreditation sa CDR? hindi po ba pwede mag work ka dito kung hindi ka license engineer dito sa Australia? napansin ko po kasi sa mga job vacancy na search ko. Registered Electronic Engineer hinahanap nla sa company. so i am thinking hindi ako registered Electronic Engineer dito sa Australia but I am registered Electronic Engineer sa PH, so no chance mg apply unless mgpa assest? tama po ba?yong company po ba maam hindi mag entertain kung hindi ka license Engineer dito sa OZ?pacnxa na po madami pong katanongan.

This isn’t a migration related topic but rather more employment related which is beyond my scope. best to check the requirements of the state you’re residing in.

Good day..thanks for the info. yes maam it is related on the employment topic cause i am preparing myself searching a certain job that qualify my skills once my partner visa comes out.
