Not sure sa EA, Vetassess kasi yung assessment ko.
check mo tong link https://www.engineersaustralia.org.au/sites/default/files/2023-03/msa-online-applicants.pdf
guide for migration assessment ng EA.
Nominated Skill: 312111 - Architectural Draftsperson
Target Visa: Subclass 190-OFFSHORE
Target State: VIC/WA/NSW
2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
2022 Started working in Singapore, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again.
2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube video explaining permanent residence can be applied offshore(DIY)
2023 Oct 30: Started Collecting Documents. This took us so long because we are hesitating and overthinking about making contact to our previous employers. We thought we should just do a statutory declaration but fortunately we talked to our friends who are also planning their migration and helped us understand that its easy to request for it.

2024 July : I delayed getting my Vetasses in the hopes of saving the fee if my husband got the invite even with low eoi score(who am I kidding?). Contunued collecting SoS from my past companies cause we realized that 10 points for skilled partner is a huge difference. Initially, I was looking to just submit with only 1 work experience cause my other companies are a bit hassle to deal with but thank God I went throught all the stress and collected them all(pokemon?)

hi again, ask ko lang po if meron sa inyo nag pa re-assess sa ACS using the same employment certificate na ginamit nong unang nag pa assess kayo sa ACS? meron ako positive result before kaso hndi ako naka kuha ng ITA, ngayon mag subok ako ulit pero need ko mag pa assess ulit sa ACS for my new employer...sa guide ng employment cert hindi ko na mention kung ilang oras ako per week although meron nakalagay na permanent full time...ok na kaya eto? tpos yon ibang work experience same COE pa din gagamitin ko na naka CTC na. Salamat

Pwede onshore at offshore sa vic kaso ang trend eh bihira ang mainvite ang mga nag apply offshore. For vic need mag gawa ng Registration of interest(ROI) after mong mag gawa ng EOI.

Hello po,
Question po: Regarding po sa 190 Visa application documents upload,
Mag tanong lang po ako if need pa po bang i-upload ung Job description na form para po mag claim po ng Work experience points?
Working po kasi ako sa CLOSELY related occupation (same unit group and skills assessing body), pero ung Certificate of Employment ko po, naka generalized lang ung duty and responsibility maikli lang po isa lang nakalagay, hindi po sya detailed.
Meron po akong separate na Job Description na certificate na detailed po lahat ng duties and responsibilities.
Kaya lang po ang worry ko, pag inupload ko po ung JD, baka masilip ng case officer na medyo magka-iba ung duties ko, sa actual nominated occupation ko po.
Salamat po sa mga makakasagot!

If titignan mo yung occupation description at roles and responsibilities usually general at broad sila.
As long as it is comparable , it will fit the bill.
For example as carpenter - they will not ask what skillsets you are doing at a work episode, as long as you’re working as a carpenter. It doesn’t mean din naman na nilagay at minatch mo lahat as per nominated eh papasa na din. You can only do as much ,kaya ok lang yan.
Nakapasa ka na sa assessment body - why not with DHA?

10.4 Employment must be skilled
10.4.1 Assessing periods of skilled employment
When assessing periods of skilled employment for the purpose of awarding points, the following must be taken into
account:
• the opinion of the relevant skills assessing authority on the period of skilled employment including the date on which
they deemed the applicant skilled; and
• the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO) including any pre-requisite
qualifications/work experience relevant to the claimed skilled employment; and
• any other relevant information (such as employment records and references).
If the skills assessing authority’s opinion would result in the applicant being awarded less points than the applicant
claimed in their EOI, then decision makers should consider the information in ANZSCO and apply the more beneficial
outcome in determining when the applicant was working at a skilled level.
While having regard to the opinion provided by skills assessing authorities, decision makers also need to be satisfied with
the bona fides of the supporting documents presented in making their decision to award points.
The regulations require only that an applicant is employed in a nominated skilled occupation for a particular period of
time. The provision does not require the applicant to have skills of a particular standard during that period of
employment. The decision maker can consider whether the applicant is undertaking at least some of the duties
prescribed for the position in ANZSCO, for example, if a client is claiming employment as a carpenter, the tasks they are
undertaking are those of a carpenter.

Hindi po, may positive skills assessment naman po ako, pero nakalagay po doon, the decision to grant points will be the dept.of home affairs po. Kasi po nag stop na po mag assess ng work experience ung skills assessing authority, hindi na po sila nag aaccept ng work experience applications po.

Ganon kasi talaga, si department ang mag-gagrant ng points upon assessment. However, in your application, lahat ng presented information ay "claims" including the points in your EOI and these claims need to be supported by documents. Usually kung anong prinovide mo sa assessing body yung ibibigay mo rin sa DHA when you apply.
