@gacoquia - kung ano ang nasa SOL, kung pareho namang nasa SOL or CSOL, kung ano ang mas mataas ang occupational ceiling at mas madaling ma-grant ang state sponsorship request.

1.3/5 COE with detailed duties ( thank God mababait mga ex employers ko.
2. BC /passport
3. Diploma and TOR
still waiting for other COE na gagawan ko pa ng affidavit, then will have everything notarized.
question po ulit, ok lang ba di na ako kumuha ng COE ng ibang company na pinasukan ko na di naman related sa nominated application ko? naging tech support kasi ako for 2 yes pero the most recent work I had is different. And also wala akong credit card kasi ayoko din talaga. parang ang option lang sa ACS is credit card, can I use someone elses card? for payment purposes lang or is there any other opption ? salamat po ulit sa mga sasagot ulit.

Yes you need to provide the detailed job description. May format prescribed ang ACS for this one. In my case, I created the letter, printed it (colored) with the company letterhead then asked my team lead/manager to sign it.
For the skill that you are going to nominate, kung alin yung may experience ka. So mukhang Test analyst. But then parang di ko pa ata nakita ang Skill code na to sa ANZSCO (di lang ako sure, di ko na kase kabisado lahat)... Nacheck mo na ba yung codes ng occupation na meron?

I heard from some people pag color photocopy sufficient na ung scanned docs even without the CTC, but I am not sure if that's true. Anyway, gawin mo na lahat, mas ok na yung "overkill" hehe kesa eventually you have to go back and redo things pa.
