Thank you po,
Question po ulit may naka experience naba sa inyo tapos ng yung assessment pero namali dun sa isang end date ng work episode kaya na invalidate yung work episode na yon pwede po ba ireappeal yun?
Joined: Mar 10, 2016
Raise it up first with the assessing officer. If it’s a mistake their end, I don’t see why you need to appeal. Let them rectify it.

I’ve been seeing some comments in Facebook groups na for their payment evidences, they uploaded first and last payslip EACH year of their employment. This confuses me because it is clearly stated in the ACS website that the needed payslips are the first and last for each EMPLOYMENT. Was there a previous requirement from ACS in the previous years na nagrequire ng payslips every year?

@applepiemama former ACN employee here. I got my employee reference from them with duties and responsibilities. It takes almost 2 months. Back and forth with the HR kasi non standard yung request ko and hindi sila nag iissue ng ganun due to privacy. I told them the purpose is for skills assesment and gave the ACS guideline and the link to guideline. We had a call, they are very responsive.
I gave them general description of my work without citing clients name and specifics. I am done with the assessment as well, at wala ako na receive na issue from ACS.

Hello, meron ba sa inyo na iba yung lumalabas sa name sa ID verification step? In my case, tama yung name na lumalabas for the passport scan, while for my UMID scan, nawawala yung second name ko.
For example:
Passport: CRUZ, JUAN MARTIN
UMID: CRUZ, JUAN
Based dito sa video ng ACS for ID verification, wag daw i-edit yung details. Anyone who had the same dilemma pero hindi naman nagka-issue sa assessment?

Hello po. Will ask lang po regarding sa mga payment evidences. Has anyone tried to get bank statements from Metrobank? yung ITR ko po kasi wala akong makuhang start year na copy. Any alternatives po kaya na payment evidence na cinoconsider ni acs. Thanks po!

It used to be each year but they eventually changed it to per employment. Procedure change every now and then so it’s important you have the updated one.

Hi guys,
I'm starting a new job this June and planning to have my ACS assessment after my first payout so that would be around July. New job is very similar to my current but I'm concerned that ACS won't acknowledge this new job since it would be very recent. should I wait a bit more? I just want to make sure that my next job would be assessed since I want to claim points for it since I want my years of relevant experience to continuously increase while waiting.

Sa previous assessment process nila, wala namang minimum duration of employment. Ewan ko lang sa new process. Pero why not try, kasi kung iassess nila yan edi good since it will continuously increase over time. It will not incur additional fee also.

Once you have been assessed and given a date deemed skilled, you can continue to claim experience on further employment episodes on EOI even if employment wasn’t assessed by acs as long as tasks are the same but make sure you can provide the necessary evidences on visa application stage. All the best

Hello po, mahaba na yung thread and it might have been answered before. Pero ask ko lang po what's the process to renew my skills assessment? Mag eexpire na po kasi sa akin sa July. My previous acs skills assessment was processed by an agent. Thank you.

regarding EOI for those states na nag rerequire na atleast 1 year experience for the state nomination. The experience should be after deduction po ng ACS po no? Also has anyone experience po yung nag pa asses kay ACS tapos after nag pa dagdag nalang po or inincluded yung mga ongoing work experience later on po.

Hi MARA agent here….it depends on the state. Some will only follow whatever is stated on the skills assessment outcome so you’ll have to make sure you go over the requirements for each state.
You don’t need to get assessed for any succeeding work experience. As long as duties are the same, you can continue to claim.

Hello, did they specify the work location in your non-standard COE? They finally provided me a non-standard COE, but it does not have a specific work location (even though I requested for it). When I emailed them to request to add it, they (Accenture HR) said it's not needed as the office address is already in the COE. Is it the same case with you as well?

Hi everyone! New member here, I'd like to ask for your insights based on the following credentials:
School: STI College - Section 3
Course: BSIT
Work Experience: Software Tester - 4 years (2 different companies)
I'm planning to get assessed for 261314 - Software Tester, here are my questions:
1. How many years of experience will ASC deduct?
2. Will I be required to submit an RPL report?
3. Can I still get points on educational qualifications if my school is under Section 3?
4. Is there any chance of getting a positive skill assessment?
Thank you po sa makakasagot

I hope makatulong to
STI is under section 3, ang alam ko kapag section 3 and BSIT at wala naman PRC sa atin (based on my exp to)
kung positive ang assessment sayo Associate Degree = Advance Diploma 10 pts at deducted ng 5~6 years based sa guidelines ng ACS.
Try mo pa din mag pa skill assessment, yung assessor pa din ang final decision.
