    Hi po, ask ko lang kung may same case dito sa akin wherein yung name na nakaindicate under sa List of applications sa immi ay naka maiden name, pero pag clinick naman yung view details, naka married name naman na yung name ko under Applicants. Pati dun sa email ng Immi about Acknowledgement of Application Received, naka married name naman na din. Dalawa kasi yung inupload kong passports ko, yung expired na naka maiden name pa at yung recent na married name na so yun ang naisip ko na maaaring nag cause nito.

    Hi po. Nag agency po ako. I think d po ako nagka CO. Nasa australia based kasi yung agent namin so we contacted thru emails lng. 1 time lng nmn xa nanghingi ng reqts sakin (kasama na yung CEMI) Tas kasunod ng pagsend ko ng medicals and biometrics receipts is yung visa grant na.

    Hello po, question lang po sa mga naka-pag lodge na. While waiting po ng visa grant, naghahanap na po ba kayo ng work dun? Or hihintayin niyo nalang po yung grant bago kayo maghanap?

    Pwede naman po maghanap na ng work while waiting po sa grant. May mga companies naman po na nag eentertain naman ng candidates offshore basta po hindi need ng visa sponsorship. Like in my case po I have 2 pending applications na once granted po ang visa mag pproceed na po sa next steps.

    Congrats!!! Can you share your vetassess journey?

    Hello! Usual documents were submitted (COE, org chart, payslips, etc.) but the CO contact took time. Additional requirements were needed because one of the COEs didn’t reflect the number of hours rendered per week. My partner submitted an notarized affidavit stating the number of hours rendered. Hope this helps. Feel free to aks questions! 😊

    Thank you! I am looking at CPM din, problema ko is di naman umpisa agad is CPM ka so yung early years ba na di ka pa CPM is binilang nila yun as years of experience? Did they cut years pa from your years of exp?

    Like arki - may minus points?
    Years of exp before becoming CPM - counted?

    Ah, yes. Kasi total of 7 years of experience as CPM (pero total work experience is 11 yrs with non CPM roles) na yung partner ko pero ang nacredit lang is 5.3 yrs. True rin na di CPM agad kaya di makakasama yung years na di ka pa CPM. Also, bawas ng 1 year pa kasi yung first year mo as CPM considered as ‘learning year’.

    MY ROAD TO AUSTRALIAN PR

    Nominated Occupation: Architectural Draftsperson - ANZSCO 312111 (Offshore)

    Apr 29: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents. I started uploading the required documents. I decided not to include my first work in the Philippines because I don’t have payment evidence of it. I didn’t include my 1st work in Singapore as well because I don’t have a Certificate of Employment from that job.
    Apr 30: VETASSESS – I double-checked my documents for the last time.
    May 01: VETASSESS – I successfully submitted my online assessment for Architectural Draftsperson. Total amount paid is AUD$ 880 (SGD$ 842.66) Crossing my fingers that the outcome will be positive.
    May 05: VETASSESS – My application status was lodged.
    Jul 12: VETASSESS – After 11 weeks, the results came out and it was Positive. Number of years assessed positively was 9.63 which is equivalent to 15 points in EOI.
