Hello po, naka receive po ako 190 pre-invite.

Ask ko lang po, kasi 9yrs ung experience ko offshore,
Required po mag submit ng bank statement with salary.
Pano ko po iprovide ung 9yrs na bank statement?

Pwede po ba mag submit lang ng latest 12months ng bank salary?
Or pwede po ba ung 1st year ng work, tapos ung latest year lang?

Hindi po kasi makapag release ung bank po ng buong 9yrs na record, napakarami daw nung files.

Salamat po sa mga sasagot!

Current 6 months bank statement lang necessary afaik walang instance na binigay ko lahat yung payslips ko nung kami ,provide tax notice and clearances per year is best din to provide evidence sa employment .
Congratulations 🥂

Makikisingit lang po dito. Paano po kaya pag kulang yung contract of employment? Ang meron lang kasi akong copy is from current job ko. But sa assessment naman po kompleto ko yung reference letters, ITR, sss, pag ibig, etc. Okay na po kaya yun to prove my experience?

And another question, inupload nyo ba yung EA outcome sa pre-invite na form?

Thank you po 🙏

What ANZSCO Code would be best for me? I've searched that renewable energy is more in line with Electrical Engineers but I'm a Licensed Mechanical Engineer and graduated last 2019 and have worked in the solar industry Rewable Sector (5 years total).

Pwede rin yung profession nila as ME and obtain skills assessment through your renewable energy sector experience. Napaka timely naman most states need Energy sector workers lalo na ang QLD.
