Few insights lang po.
1. Allowed po ba and CEMI as proof of English? I doubt po. You need to sit an english proficiency exam po, as far as I know. I have an existing CEMI rin po, but it can't be use as evidence of english.
2. Certificate of Employmeny lang po ang attachment niyo sa employment tab? Primary Doc lang po yan, Secondary Docs are also REQUIRED po to get RSEA.
3. PRC Docs are to be submitted rin po.
List down ko po dito lahat ng pinasa ko according to Tabs. I gained positive assessment + RSEA last Month - Sep 2022. Hope it helps!

Marami pong kulang dito sa list niyo. Better refer to MSA Booklet and make a checklist of what you need to provide, para sure po ang positive assessment.

Hi @lorenzmamangon, based sa indicated below parang wala ata akong CPD na nakita sa list mo. Tanong ko lang sa "Prepare your Migration Skills Assessment application July 2022 v1.0 ka ba nagreference? Medyo nalilito kase ako dun sa format lalo na sa career episodes at CPD, gawa nung MSA Booklet 2020, pero syempre di ba kung ano yung new edition yun dapat ang susundin na format, tama po ba? Preparing to submit din ako bago sana matapos ang November.

Hi @lorenzmamangon same here, medyo nalilito din ako kung anong format ang gagamitin lalo na sa career episode at CPD, yung MSA 2020 more detailed kaysa July 2022 v1.0, pero nagbasa-basa ako online inaupdate pala nila yan yearly at dapat daw kung anong recent yun ang susundin na format.

Di ko po alam kung may ruling about this one, but for me, I provided at least 1 payslip per quarter. So, for example, 3 years yung tenure ko sa isang company, I attached 12 payslips (quarterly interval). Pag meron akong missing payslip sa quarter na yun, I made sure na nag-appear naman yung month na yun sa other evidences like nahulugan sa SSS/Philheath/PAGIBIG, etc.
Para may proof pa rin na I am still employed sa company during those months.

Hi po! ECE po working as a Project Management Engineer sa converge. More on roll-out ng infra ni converge yung work ko, 2years and 6months na din ang experience. Babakasakali lang may ka same work ako dito sa pilipinas.
Ask ko lang if magpapa assess ako CDR or RSEA na po ba? Electronics Engineer kasi nakikita ko na may chance ako since sa telecom engineer more on antenna ang mga nasa description, more on fiber(fixed communication) si converge. Thesis and projects during college po ba pwede ko pa mailagay sa CDR ko even 2018 pa po ako graduate? MARAMING SALAMAT po

You can try to gauge if kaya ko ba sya asikasuhin factoring the time and resources na you have. Since majority nman ng collecting ng requirements is ikaw pa dn nman. Ang magging role nman ni agent mo at this stage is to check your documents ensure na complete and tama. Then sya na dn mgpapasa kay EA for you. But this may depend kung ano agreement nyo but most likely it will be on this line of scope.
On our exp i availed yung services ng agency as early in this stage up until lodging ng visa. Since mejo busy kami and naniguro lang dn ako kasi mejo mahal dn kung mgkamali ako over snall details and technicalities. Currently, ngpprepare na lang kmi ng docs para maipasa na un docs for visa. Hope it helps.

Hello po! Can anyone point me to references or guides for writing the CDR? Need lang ng basis para ma boost ko confidence sa writing skills ko. (Usually pag engineering, alam niyo naman bullet points kaagad )
Joined: Aug 16, 2022
Query lang po kung bakit nakalagay na "Please do not submit image PDF file" sa CDR?

Hello po not 100% sure po pero ang tinutukoy yata dito yung contents dapat from MS word to pdf ang conversion hindi MS word > gagawing jpg>saka gagawing pdf kasi baka maging pixelated na yung words and pictures. Nung nagsubmit ako last Apr 2022 sa EA from MS word sinave ko lang as pdf at yun sinubmit ko sa EA wala naman naging concern. May ilang pictures/tables/diagrams din po nakalagay sa MS word ko bago iconvert sa PDF okay naman.
