Hello po..

Halos same question din po ako.. I have compiled my docs in one pdf file per employment then nakita ko to sa guidelines..

Yung digital sign lang ba and password protected pdf ang separate upload?
If yung payslip and COE ko for Company A are both electronic, can I combine both in 1 pdf?
then SSS screenshot and PAGIBIG together in separate pdf din?

TIA

ang meaning po ba nito. yung work experience ko from 18 Sep 2020 onwards lang ang pwede ko malagay na work experience outside australia, para sa points?

hindi na na credit ang 5 yrs experience ko, ginawa pang Associate Degree ang Bachelor Degree ko dito sa PH.

That's right. From that date and beyond ka lang pwede mag claim ng points as relevant and skilled. So based dyan sa result mo, more or less 2-3yrs lang.

Kapag BS IT ba dito sa PH = Associate Degree lang?
Iniisip ko reappeal, pero baka masayang lang ulit pera.

Hello Regarding sa Statutory Declaration, I can ask any notary public office to notarize the document right? or is there any requirement on who can notarize the document?

Nakadepende kasi yan sa school -- kung section 1 school, matic Bachelors yan.
Kung section 2/3 na school, kelangan may PRC license ka. Since walang boards ang BS IT, kaya Associate degree lang.

Ang question ko dyan, pwede mo pa ba maupdate yung docs dun sa ibang experience mo na hindi nacredit? Yun nalang pwede mong gawin para maimprove yung work experience points.

Literally happened to me; from section 2 school ako, licensed ECE applying for software engineer job code. Initially assessed as Associate Degree lang. Filed for review, then submitted my PRC Board Certificate. Ayun, Bachelor's degree after 7 weeks of wait. You can search this thread about PRC. Dito ko lang din nalaman yung info na yan about section 2 and 3 schools.

Hi Sir, ok lang matanong kung ano sinubmit niyo na evidence for those 2 work exp na hindi na credit? Na curious lang po ako.

Ano ba ang issue kapag nakalagay na "Not assessable due to document guidelines not met" - parang ang vague kasi compared sa "insufficient payment evidence".

Oh crap so tagilid nga talga ako since sec 2 school ako. This is frustrating, mukang tanga lang talaga school namin to hype na oks sila sa IT, meanwhile the other school near us who has a laid back IT program is Sec1. bummer. anyway thanks!

hindi sila nagbabase sa title..dun sila magbabase sa sinubmit mo na detailed employment reference (or stat dec)...actually systems administrator and meron ding security specialist if ireview yung employment reference..pina assess ko is ICT Security Specialist (para may flexibility on 189 visa si Systems Admin kasi 190 and 491 lng ) pero sa assessment ni ACS they recommend na gamitin ko yung systems administrator so yun ang sinunod ko base on their recommendation (paid 200 aud for review)..

I looked into the ACS guidelines and compared the description ng mga ANZCO code halos pare parehas lng yung systems admin and security specialist, parang copy paste lng..lol. malawak kasi sa Infra na role kaya you have to check sa ACS guidelines and see kung anung mas malapit..

Question po, okay lang ba na hindi detailed yung nilagay na job description ni HR sa COE? Prang ang general kasi at wlang pagkatechnical yung terms.

I’m applying po sana as Computer Network and Systems Engineer since most of my experience were network operations side ng telco and enterprise company.

Then eto lang yung nilagay sa COE ko

Will the assessor from ACS refer to our resume for matching sa occupation na inaapplyan mo for migration?

As for the VEVO na need sa personal docs, counted ba dito ung student visa?

Almost done with the requirements po. Yung confidence nalang yung wala ksi torn parin sa occupation list ng ICT Support at Computer Network and Systems Engineer. 🥹

check mo yung ANZSCO code ng inaaplyan mong job code. dapat aligned dyan sa duties and responsibilities mo (hindi pwedeng kopyang kopya talaga sa ANZSCO, marereject yung skills assessment mo dahil dun).

There is no particular format that ACS accepts when it comes to Employment References, afaik. So long as the needed contents are there (which is stated in their website) to prove your paid full-time employment with the company, okay na yun. Just pay attention with the details/contents of the letter as these should align with the rest of your supporting docs. There are kind people in this group who answers every question we have, but we need to do our own research as well. If uncertain, better consult a migration agent, expertise nila to check document contents and format. Goodluck!

Nakaklungkot naman to

Hello pwede matanong kung anong section school m and if may license ka? Same tayo anzsco code and assessed as associate. Galing ako section 2 with prc license.

Hi @jinigirl! Saw in your signature "06.10.2022 - sent review request to ACS to consider bachelor's degree" May I know the reason behind this po?

Hello po, yung background ko po is licensed ECE from section 2 school, nag apply under Software Engineer ANZSCO code. Initially, ang binigay sakin ni ACS is diploma lang with 6 years deduction sa work exp. Pero meron dito sa forum na mga licensed ECE din (kahit expired na), na nakakuha ng bachelors degree under software engineer job code. Nung nagpareview ako, sinubmit ko lang yung board certificate from PRC kaya ayun, naconsider na din syang bachelors with 4 years exp deduction

Hello. My wife took BS Management Information Systems in college and was a software engineer for 4yrs. She has a different/unrelated job now.

May chance kaya na maging positive yung assessment nya so that we can claim 10pts for partner skills?

If ever 4 years ideduct, suitable pa ba yon? Or dapat at least 2 years experience po after deduction?

Thank you.

Hello po, may I ask what section po school ng wife niyo and from her TOR may mga programming related subjects din po ba? If yes po may chance po na maging positive iyong skill assessment for software engineer, (might minus 2 years only) since BS. IS graduate din po ako and na-assess ni ACS na bachelors.

Pano po pag section 2 pero may ICT related subjects sa TOR? pwede po kaya ma grant na bachelors yun?

AFAIK, the only way na ma grant ng bachelors degree from section 2 / 3 school is kung may PRC license

Hi @jinigirl did you pay the 395 AUD review fee or did you just inquire through e-mail and they updated the assessment result?

Kasi I attached my ECE PRC board certificate naman from the start. I'm from section 2 school applying for computer network engineer pero assessed as associate lang kaya 6 yrs na-deduct. I sent them an e-mail inquiring muna and haven't paid the review fee.

hindi ko po agad na-attach kasi akala ko before wala syang bearing since IT ang pinapaassess ko. So sa case ko nagpa review ako, then nagbayad. Since kayo po nasubmit niyo na, and kung sure naman na okay docs nio, try nio po mag appeal. Sa appeal po, magbabayad pa din kayo pero irerefund naman kung successful yung appeal
