Hello po, first time to post in this forum. My husband and I are just starting our journey for PR in AU. Matanong ko lang sana paano yung SSS and bank statements as payment evidence? Hindi daw kasi pwede yung screenshot from website for SSS contributions, may specific certificate ba na pwede natin marequest from somewhere?
Also, yung sa bank statements po ba, lumalabas ba yung name ng company? Sa amin kasi wala siya so mukhang hindi option samin to.
Also, had a question on Stat Dec / affidavit for the job description. Enough lang po ba na 1 person ka lang humingi nito kahit multiple projects yung exp sa company? Paano din po yung process in getting this, can I just create a document, request my colleague / supervisor to sign, tapos ipanotarize? Would really appreciate any advice on this matter.
Thanks!

Hello...
For SSS Contri - last year, ACS accepted screenshots from SSS website with Employment History record. Not sure about certificate, nag-iba na requirements now?
For Bank Statement - since wala yung Company Name ko, nanghingi ako ng another certification from my Company/HR na doon sa Bank/Account Number na yun nila dinedeposit yung salary/payments ko. With matching Bank Certification na ayun nga talaga yung account number ko.
For Affidavit - let your colleague (better if supervisor) make the document and sign it, then notarize. May mga nagpost na dito ng sample ng affidavit.

Accenture COE is requested thru ACN tools/site/ticket. automated sya and has generic template.
They don't include detailed roles, etc., that is required by ACS.
Dahil dyan -- statutory declaration and kelangan mo if you're coming from Accenture.

That’s correct, not stat dec and COE will then be required.

Hello po...
Regarding payment evidence. Pwede po bang first and last payslips from previous company yung iprovide?
Joined: Aug 19, 2018
I requested from [email protected]
but i was no longer employed in ACN ng nagrequest ako. Maybe you can cc them kapag nagemail ka sa HR.

Yes. Based sa changes ng ACS from Dec 2021, they no longer require per year of payment evidence. They only require payment evidence to cover start and end of your employment. But take note that they need at least 2 forms of evidence. It would be helpful if you can provide ITR too.
I just submitted mine 3 weeks back (still waiting for result), just in case I also added SSS and PAG IBIG screenshots.

Hi,
Currently researching ako for ACS assessment, hopefully for employer sponsored visa this year.
From what I understand, counted lang ang years of work experience after attaining Bachelors.
I've been working for 4 years now kaso ngayon ko palang na-process graduation ko. Tama ba na hindi counted yung mga work experience ko prior to graduation?
Also, my first two companies ko di ako naka-SSS or Pagibig. Ano kayang pwede gamitin as proof of earnings from them?
Thank you!

Same case as mine, wala ako SSS and Pag-ibig sa isang employer. I provided Bank Statement and BIR Form 2307 instead--okay naman tinanggap naman ng ACS.

Also, does anyone have experience with working before graduating? I just graduated but had already almost 4 years of experience working with companies. Will my work experience count to the ACS assessment?

I think it is best to add it as well, if 'counted' siya ng ACS it could help you add as experience with your company given you'll stay with them while you wait for ITA.

If it will make a difference with points then yes but at the same time I’m not sure how comfortable you’ll be asking for employment reference give you’re only a few weeks in the company.

Lahat ba ito in PH? Yung part time pwede maconsider kung minimum of 20 hours per week.
ACS deducts 2 years sa total work experience kasi di counted yung after grumaduate. Total exp mo if iconsider lahat ng occupation is 8 years~ so for ACS it would be 6 years. But then, it would depend kung alin diyan yung talagang pwede mo maclaim (with all the necessary docs) na related sa role na gusto mo. Count the years then caculate the points. Good luck!
Number of years Points
Less than 3 years 0
At least 3 but less than 5 years 5
At least 5 but less than 8 years 10
