If sobrang na iistress ka, kumuha ka ng agent. Nakaka stress tlga ang DIY, need mong masipag magresearch.

Yes, you can bring your wife and kids. They will hold thesame visa as you. Your wife can work full time and your family will be eligible for medicare . Your kids can also attend government schools for free. (for NSW, I'm not sure in other states.)
So please don't seperate your wife. 🤭

I have another question if you guys don't mind.
May I know if I can work in an IVF laboratory to be assessed as Medical Laboratory Scientist? or it's better to work in a Pathology or Hospital lab? I am thinking to try a different lab worrying about the fact that I wouldn't be able to claim working experience and pass my skilled assessment.
Hope someone can help as I am struggling to make a move for now. Thank you

Pls, give me a guidance regarding AIMS skill assessment. I have positive skill assessment from AIMS. As a first stage of skill assessment they assessed me as a medical lab technician and invited to sit professional exam. They also mentioned: “the claim made of 10 years work experience equates to work at an appropriately skilled level:
• From……. To ……., Mrs……. was employed as a medical technologist for 10 years.
After passed the professional exam they sent a result letter indicating I have been successful in exam and assessed as suitable for skilled occupations of medical laboratory scientist and medical laboratory technician. ( no anything mentioned about work experience in that letter.)
I received pre-invite for 491 from NSW as medical laboratory scientist. According to your experience, Please let me know, can I claim 10 yrs work experience mentioned in my 1 st stage of skill assessment for medical lab scientist?
I’m waiting for your reply. Please, help me.
Thanks.

Hello po sa mga nakapag pa-assessed na. I have some few questions lang po. All documents can be send via email naman po diba EXCEPT for the TOR since dapat sealed siya.. yung mga documents po ba via email dapat naka notarized (CERTIFIED TRUE COPY) ??? Thank you sooooo much. Sana may makasagot po.
And one last thing po, medyo nagugulohan lang dun sa application form since dapat yung signature is signed using an ink.. did you print it po ba para magpirma lang then scan, tapos email?
Hoping for a reply. Magd-DIY lang po ako kasi mahal sa agency. Hahaha 🥲🥲🥲
same question po, sana masagot thank youuu po

Hi, no need po for notarized/certified true copy of documents.
As of the moment, they require colour scans of the original docu requested.
Just follow lang po yung current AIMS guidelines
